  • the present invention proposes to produce an ignition device of the aforementioned type, which does not require any fundamental modification of the engine.
  • the ignition device according to the invention retains, in its most general appearance, the shapes and external dimensions of a conventional spark plug comprising an insulating body containing an axial central electrode, and fixed in a threaded base arranged for attach the spark plug to the engine block and dissipate the heat from the insulating body.
  • the present invention proposes to eliminate the aforementioned drawbacks, by producing a device ignition allowing a plasma ignition of lean mixtures without fundamental modification of the engine, and by developing manufacturing and assembly techniques for this ignition device which can be produced by means of the fundamental components of conventional spark plugs .
  • the method according to the invention is characterized in that the metal central electrode is fixed to the insulating body and the insulating body to the metal base by means of a ceramic-metal brazing technique, in that the a metal capsule of generally cylindrical shape is produced comprising a central cavity forming a pre-combustion chamber and having a central circular opening on each of these flat faces, in that this capsule is subjected to a surface treatment to make it resistant at the high temperatures created by the plasma, and in that it is welded, by a technique of approximation under Joule effect, said capsule previously treated at the lower end of the base, so that the upper circular opening, provided in one of the flat faces of the capsule, is concentric with the end of the insulating body, and the free end of the central electrode is disposed substantially concentrically with respect to the opening lower circular part of the other flat face of the capsule.
  • the ignition device obtained by this process is characterized in that the central electrode is brazed to the insulating body, in that the insulating body is brazed to the base, and in that the ground electrode is constituted by a metal capsule of generally cylindrical shape comprising a central cavity forming a combustion chamber and a central circular opening on each of its flat faces, this capsule having previously undergone a surface treatment making it resistant to the high temperatures created by the plasma, and being fixed to the lower end of the base so that the central electrode is disposed in the pre-combustion chamber, substantially concentrically with respect to the lower opening of its flat face.
  • the ignition device hereinafter called convector l, essentially consists of an insulating body 2, an axial central electrode 3 housed inside the insulating body 2, and a base 4 which contains the lower part of the insulating body 2.
  • the central electrode consists of a middle section 5 in the form of a substantially cylindrical rod housed inside a bore cylindrical 6 of the insulating body 2.
  • the upper end 7 is at least partially externally threaded to allow the screwing of a connection olive.
  • a cap 8 is fixed which covers and protects the upper point of the insulating body 2.
  • the lower end 9 of the central electrode exceeds the lower point of the body insulator 2 and cooperates with the ground electrode to create the spark, as in a conventional spark plug.
  • the central electrode is fixed to the insulating body by a brazing technique which will be described in more detail below, in such a way that the soldering makes it possible to fix the central electrode to the insulating body at its coldest point. that is to say its upper end and that the seal is perfectly ensured.
  • the base 4 of the convector shown has a thread intended to fix the convector to the engine block, to constitute both the mechanical connection and the thermal bridge intended to dissipate the heat of the insulator.
  • a brazing technique was used to fix the insulating body 2 in the central bore in the base 4.
  • the insulating body 2 made of ceramic, produced with precision, includes support shoulders 11 and 12 which cooperate with corresponding shoulders formed in the base 4, to ensure precise seating of the insulating body inside the base.
  • the brazing technique consists in metallizing the surface of the ceramic beforehand using a spray of molybdenum and manganese powder.
  • a tube made of a metallic alloy for example an alloy marketed under the Dilver type, preferably having a coefficient of expansion intermediate between those of the ceramic and the steel of the base, and to introduce these elements pre-assembled in position in the base.
  • the tube 13 will at least partially surround the lower part of the insulating body 2 and will be disposed opposite an annular recess 14, formed in the wall of the base 4, to allow deformation of the tube 13.
  • brazing rod 16 for example of a copper-silver alloy
  • the assembly will be subjected to a heat treatment, by passing through the convector, a furnace passing under a reducing atmosphere at high temperature, which will cause the fusion of the brazing rod and its ascent by capillarity between the tube 13, the insulating body 2 and the metal base 4.
  • This new technique eliminates the mechanical shocks of the crimping as it was carried out within the framework of the manufacture of conventional candles, and allows to have a brazing surface of the order of 330 m, which allows a much greater dissipation. and considerably increases the polythermia of the convector.
  • This brazing operation simultaneously ensures internal sealing at the central electrode and the terminal screw. To do this, it is also sufficient to place brazing rods 16a, 16b, so that this molten material flows along the central electrode 5 and the cap 8 and ensures the brazing of the central electrode and the cap 8 on the insulating body 2.
  • This manufacturing technique makes it possible to eliminate the mechanical forces and shocks due to the crimping of conventional spark plugs, forces and shocks which can cause tensions which cannot be detected when cold, but which can cause the rupture of the insulating body following successive thermal shocks. during the operation of the internal combustion engine.
  • the lower end of the convector comprises a capsule 17, which constitutes the ground electrode of this convector.
  • This ground electrode which will be described in more detail with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3, is welded to the lower edge of the base 4, by a technique of welding by bringing together under the Joule effect.
  • this element is preferably constituted by a generally cylindrical part produced by turning, treated during an appropriate surface treatment operation, then soldered on the base.
  • the capsule 17 comprises a central cavity 18 communi - as with two circular openings 19 and 20.
  • the upper opening 19 defines with the side wall of the cylindrical body of the capsule 17, a board 21 intended to be fixed to the lower annular edge of the base 4.
  • the lower opening 20 defines an annular edge 22 which constitutes the active edge of the ground electrode of the convector.
  • the capsule 17 has three flats 23, into which respectively open three bores. 24 which communicate with the interior cavity 18.
  • the capsule 17 In order for the capsule 17 to be able to withstand the high temperatures created by the plasma, it undergoes a surface treatment which is preferably a chromium cementation treatment and in particular a hard chromization treatment, which makes it possible to obtain a layer relatively fine formed of chromium carbide of a very high hardness.
  • a surface treatment which is preferably a chromium cementation treatment and in particular a hard chromization treatment, which makes it possible to obtain a layer relatively fine formed of chromium carbide of a very high hardness.
  • a surface treatment which is preferably a chromium cementation treatment and in particular a hard chromization treatment, which makes it possible to obtain a layer relatively fine formed of chromium carbide of a very high hardness.

  • the convection candle or convector provided with its capsule acting as precombustion chamber, allows the mixture to be previously compressed in this prechamber, to be ignited by a rotary electric discharge having the forms an ionizing iris, causing the plasma which activates the chain reaction of combustion in the main chamber of the engine cylinder.
  • One of the advantages of the convection capsule is that it makes it possible to use the components of conventional candles with prominent insulating tips, at the end of the base of which the convection capsule is welded replacing the conventional mass electrode.
  • a small aluminum alloy centering tube is used which is introduced into the opening 20 of the capsule (see FIG. 2) and on the end 9 (see FIG. 1) of the central electrode 3.
  • the internal diameter of the centering tube corresponds substantially to the external diameter of the end 9 of the central electrode, and its external diameter corresponds substantially to the internal diameter of the circular opening 20 of the capsule.
  • the thickness of the walls of the centering tube is substantially equal to the difference in the diameters of the opening 20 and from the end 9 of the central electrode.
  • the ignition device or convector in which the heat dissipation is greatly improved, has the advantage of being polythermic. Therefore, a single convector, by its thermal elasticity, can advantageously replace a range of conventional candles, each of which corresponds to a low range of thermicity.
  • An ignition system using the ignition device as described, can advantageously be supplemented by a high frequency pulsed current generator, with the aim of promoting the formation of a plasma.
