Abstract
Abstract A heat insulation layer is provided on the exterior surface of a port liner. The port liner is installed in the exhaust port passage upon casting of a cylinder head by filling a moulding material in the cavity of the port liner to serve as an exhaust port, mounting preformed and cured separate layers of moulding material on the exterior surface of the port liner and using the port liner with a mass of a moulding material therein and separate layers of a moulding material thereon as a core for casting an exhaust port passage and a heat insulation layer of the exhaust port.

A method of producing an exhaust port arrangement of a cylinder head of the type provided with a heat insulation layer on the exterior surface of a port liner which is installed in an exhaust port passage of a cylinder head upon casting of the cylinder head, comprising the steps of: preparing a port liner made of a heat resisting steel and having a passage to function in use as an exhaust port; completely filling the passage of said port liner with a moulding material curable by heat; heating mainly through said port liner said mass in the passage until cured; preforming two individual layer members made of a moulding material curable by heat and shaped to be assembled into an elongate tubular layer of lesser axial length than said port liner and which corresponds in shape with and defines a heat insulation layer to be formed on the exterior surface of the port liner, said layer members when assembled defining two parting lines of said tubular layer and extending longitudinally of said tubular layer; heating said individual layer members until cured; mounting circumferentially on the exterior surface of said port liner with said mass cured therein said individual layer members cured to form at a desired axial position on said port liner said elongate tubular layer as a heat insulation layer, of lesser axial length than the port liner; bonding said individual layer members on said port liner; positioning said port liner with said tubular layer thereon and said mass therein into a mould for casting a cylinder head; and casting a cylinder head in said mold with said exhaust port liner and said tubular thereon in said cylinder head with said port liner fixed thereto.
