Abstract:
The piston and connecting rod assembly includes a connecting rod having opposed upper and lower ends, the upper end being pivotally secured to the piston by a conventional piston pin. The lower end of the connecting rod has a passage formed therein for receiving a conventional crankpin. However, an additional sleeve is provided for the piston. The sleeve has at least one sidewall, a closed upper end and an open lower end. The sleeve is releasably secured to the piston by any suitable type of releasable attachment or engagement. An upper surface of the closed upper end of the sleeve may have a plurality of apertures or recesses formed therein, allowing a tool with corresponding pins to engage the sleeve for removal thereof from the piston.

Claim (Index 7):
A piston and connecting rod assembly for an internal combustion engine, comprising:\n a piston; a piston pin; a connecting rod having upper and lower portions, the upper portion having opposed upper and lower ends, the upper end of the upper portion being pivotally secured to the piston by the piston pin, the lower portion having opposed upper and lower ends, the lower end of the lower portion having a passage formed therein adapted for receiving a crankpin, the lower end of the upper portion of said connecting rod is releasably secured to the upper end of the lower portion of the connecting rod; a sleeve having at least one sidewall, a closed upper end and an open lower end, the sleeve removably and releasably receiving and covering the piston, wherein the at least one sidewall has a pair of openings formed therethrough, the pair of openings being adapted for alignment with diametrically opposed ends of the piston pin; and a threaded bolt formed on the upper end of the lower portion of the connecting rod, the lower end of the upper portion of the connecting rod having a threaded recess formed therein, the threaded bolt engaging the threaded recess to selectively connect the upper and lower portions of the connecting rod.
