Abstract

A reciprocating machine, such as an internal combustion engine or a compressor, in which a piston slides reciprocally in a cylinder unit having an integrally formed cylinder head and cylinder body, is at least partially enclosed in a jacket. The inner surface of the jacket and the outer surface of the cylinder unit define between them a gap through which a cooling liquid may be circulated.
