Abstract

The secondary coil of the ignition transformer is embedded in the insulator of the spark plug, while the primary for high voltage induction is mounted outside and round the spark plug insulator. This arrangement prevents attenuation of the high voltage plus, when conducted via a cable, due to capacitance and inductances, which would limit the pulse flank steepness. The arrangement also removes limits for increasing flash over voltages necessary for moist and dust polluted air.

Description

Zündkerze für Verbrennungsmotoren mit integrierterSpark plug for internal combustion engines with integrated

Zündspulen-Sekundärwicklung Die Erfindung betrifft eine Zündkerze für Verbrennungsmotoren zur Zündung eines Kraftstoff/Luft-Gemisches.Ignition coil secondary winding The invention relates to a spark plug for internal combustion engines to ignite a fuel / air mixture.

Bei derartigen Zündkerzen sind hohe elektrische Spannungen erforderlich,um dem Kraftstoff/Luft-Gemisch die zur Zündung notwendige Aktivierungsenergis in Form eines elektrischen Funken zuzuführen, Es ist bekannt,zu diesem Zweck Zündkerzen zu verwenden,bei denen im Brennraum der Zündfunke zwischen zwei Elektroden überspringt und die dazu erforderliche Hochspannung durch ein Kabel an den durch einen Isolations körper umhüllten Elektrodenanschluß angelegt wird, Diese Methode ist jedoch mit mehreren Nachteilen behaftet.Durch die hochspannungsführenden Kabel wird nämlich der Hochspannungsimpuls aufgrund von Kapazitäten und Induktivitäten bedämpft,wodurch die Anstiegsflankensteilheit des Impulses begrenzt wird,Außerdem lassen sich die Ubersohlagespannungen nicht beliebig erhöhen,z.B.durch Vergrößern des Elektrodenabstands, da dann die Entladung außen über den Isolationskörper und die Kabelisolierung erfolgt.Dieser Effekt tritt besonders bei hoher Luftfeuchtigkeit und Staubbelag auf dem Isolationskörper und den Kabelisolierungen auf. In such spark plugs, high electrical voltages are required to The activation energy required for ignition in the form of the fuel / air mixture To supply an electric spark, it is known to use spark plugs for this purpose should be used in which the ignition spark jumps between two electrodes in the combustion chamber and the high voltage required for this through a cable to the through an insulation body-encased electrode connection is applied, this method is however with has several disadvantages, namely because of the high-voltage cables the high-voltage pulse is attenuated due to capacitances and inductances, whereby the rising edge steepness of the pulse is limited. In addition, the Do not increase the oversole tension at will, e.g. by increasing the distance between the electrodes, because then the discharge takes place outside via the insulation body and the cable insulation The effect occurs particularly with high humidity and dust deposits on the insulation body and the cable insulation.

Durch die genannten Nachteile ist die realisierbare Aktivierungsenergie zur Zündung eines Kraftstoff/Luft-Gemisches stark begrenzt.Deshalb können Kraftstoff/ Luft-Gemische mit höherem Aktivierungsenergiebedarf wie z,B.Dieselkraftstoff/Luft-Gemische oder andere Gemische mit schwerflüchtigen Mineralölfraktionen auf die beschriebene Weise nicht gezündet werden.The activation energy that can be realized is due to the disadvantages mentioned for igniting a fuel / air mixture, which is why fuel / Air mixtures with higher activation energy requirements, e.g. diesel fuel / air mixtures or other mixtures with non-volatile mineral oil fractions to the one described Way not to be ignited.

Der ErIindunO liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die hochspannungsführenden Teile wesentlich besser zu isolieren um die Störanfälligkeit zu vermindern,sowie eine höhere Überschlagsspannung zwischen den Elektroden und schnelleren Spannungsanstieg zu erreichen um die freIwerdende Aktivierungsenergie zu erhöhen. The ErIindunO is based on the task of carrying the high voltage To isolate parts much better in order to reduce the susceptibility to failure, as well a higher breakdown voltage between the electrodes and a faster voltage rise to increase the activation energy released.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsmäßig dadurch gelöst, daß die Dekundärspule des Zündtransformstors in den lsolationskörper der Zündkerze eingebettet ist.Dabai wir die Hochspannung von einer außerhalb des isolationskörpers befindlichen Primärwicklung induziert. According to the invention, this object is achieved in that the secondary coil of the ignition transformer is embedded in the insulation body of the spark plug.Dabai We take the high voltage from a primary winding located outside the insulation body induced.

Die erforderliche Primärwicklung befindet sich in einer AuBsteckkappè,um einfache montage und Demontage zu gewährleisten und bei Zündkerzenwechsel die Srsatzteilkosten niedrig zu halten. The required primary winding is in a plug-in cap to ensure easy assembly and disassembly and the replacement costs when changing spark plugs to keep it low.

Die mit der erfindung erzielten Vorteile sind in der verminderten Störanfälligkeit bei 'euchtigkeit sowie in der höheren Zündspannung und dem schnelleren Zündspannungsanstieg gegenüber herkömmlichen Zünkerzen zu sehen. The advantages achieved with the invention are diminished Susceptibility to failure with humidity as well as in the higher ignition voltage and the faster one To see ignition voltage increase compared to conventional spark plugs.

Außerdem gewährleistet die bessere Zündsicherheit eine längere Betriebszeit.In addition, the better ignition reliability ensures a longer operating time.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird im folgenden näher beschrieben.Sig.1 zeigt das Schnittbild der Zündkerze für Verbrennungsmotoren mit integrierter Zündspulen-Sekundärwicklung.

Der andere Anschluß der Primärwicklung(5) ist mit der Metallkappe(4)verbunden,Die Metallkappe(6)ist so ausgebildet,daß beim Aufstecken auf die Zündkerze elektrischer Kontakt zum Zündkerzengewindekörper(4)hergestellt wird,der wiederum mit dem Masseanschluß der elektrischen Anlage verbunden ist.Die Metallkappe(6) hat außerdem die Aufgabe,die Induktivität zu erhöhen um einen guten Wirkungsgrad bei der Induktion der Hochspannung zu gewährleisten.Das Wicklungsverhältnis der beiden Spulen zueinander sowie die Drahtdurchmesser müssen Je nach Art der Primärimpulse ausgelegt werden.The other terminal of the primary winding (5) is connected to the metal cap (4), Die Metal cap (6) is designed so that when plugged onto the spark plug electrical Contact to the spark plug thread body (4) is made, which in turn with the ground connection the electrical system is connected. The metal cap (6) also has the task of To increase the inductance in order to achieve a good efficiency in the induction of the high voltage The winding ratio of the two coils to each other as well as the Wire diameters must be designed depending on the type of primary pulse.
