摘要

The device has a compensating element (5), which is inserted in a groove (4) of an engine block (1) or a recess of a cylinder head opposite to a cylinder (2) to enclose the cylinder or a cylinder liner. The compensating element is formed by a base material flowing in an operating condition of an internal combustion engine and a cover element. The base material is formed by a viscous or visco-elastic medium, particularly a polymer or a polytetrafluoroethylene. The base material is formed by a low melting metal or a metallic alloy.
