Definitions

  • the invention relates generally to internal combustion engines, and, more particularly, to spark plugs for use in internal combustion engines.
  • a spark plug for use in an internal combustion engine having at least one combustion chamber.
  • the spark plug includes a positive or first center electrode having . an air passageway extending through it and a check valve box disposed at one end of the positive or first electrode to prevent gas in the combustion chamber from escaping through the air passageway.
  • the check valve box includes at least one air introduction port for introducing and limiting air flow into the air passageway.
  • the positive or first electrode and the check valve box are disposed within an insulator for electrically insulating the positive or first electrode from a negative or second electrode extending from a metal fitting affixed to the end of the insulator opposite the check valve box.
  • an adjusting valve is provided in the check valve box in between the air introduction port and the air passageway of the positive electrode for controlling and varying the air flow into the combustion chamber of the engine.
  • an air filter assembly is provided around the introduction port of the check valve box to clean the air which is introduced into the combustion chamber.
  • rotor means is provided for cooperating with an ignition current supply source via an electrical wire to enable continuous ignition in the combustion chamber during the removal therefrom of unburned gas.
  • the rotor means is rotatably disposed around the portion of the insulator surrounding the check valve box.
  • check valve box 9 is attached to the upper end of a first electrode in the form of a positive center electrode 1 having an air passageway extending lengthwise through it, the electrode being are molded in an insulator 3.
  • Check valve box 9 includes a check valve ball 12, a check valve ball-receiving member 11, and a spring 10 for supporting and urging check valve ball-receiving member 11.
  • Check valve box 9 operates to introduce new air into the combustion chamber during the combustion stroke of the engine and to prevent the gas in the combustion chamber from escaping.
  • At least one air introduction port 15 is provided at the upper end of check valve box 9.
  • An adjusting valve 13 which controls, varies, and adjusts the amount of the air introduced is adjustably disposed in check valve box 9 between air introduction port 15 and check valve ball 12.
  • Adjusting valve 13 may, for example, be secured in a threaded portion (not shown) of the box 9, such that it may be manually adjusted to different positions. As adjusting valve 13 is moved up and down, a time difference in the opening and closing motion of check valve ball 12 develops, wherein the amount of air which is introduced into the air passageway of electrode 1 is controlled. Filters 6 and 7 are provided on the upper surface of check valve box 9, to clean the air which is introduced into the combustion chamber.
  • the spark plug comprises positive center electrode 1, check valve box 9, and filters 6 and 7 which are formed as a unitary structure within insulator 3.
  • a rotary guard 16 extends from and forms the upper portion of insulator 3.
  • Rotary guard 16 has a slot or opening extending circumferentially through it for receiving a positive electrical lead wire from an ignition current supply source and includes a contact (not shown) for connection to the lead wire, which contact may be moved to receive the lead wire at a suitable position.
  • a rotor 5 which may be connected to the lead wire is rotatably disposed on the outerside of rotary guard 16 and may be rotated to receive the lead wire at the desired location. Rotor 5 and rotary guard 16 cooperate to provide an electrical connection between the ignition current supply source (not shown) and positive electrode 1.
  • Insulator 3 which holds positive center electrode 1 and an insulator 8 are fitted into a metal mounting fitting which may be threadably inserted into the cylinder head of an internal combustion engine.
  • a second, or in this embodiment, a negative electrode 2 is melt-adhered onto and extends from the lower portion of metal mounting fitting 4 which enters into the combustion chamber of the engine during use.
  • the continuous combustion spark plug of the present invention includes the following features: (a) The spark plug has an adjusting valve and a check valve which cooperate to control the amount of air introduced into an air passageway of a positive center electrode; (b) the spark plug includes a rotor and a rotary guard which cooperate to rotatably receive an electrical lead wire from an ignition current supply source to provide for effective ignition; and (c) the spark plug has a filter assembly for cleaning the air that is introduced into the air passageway of the positive center electrode.
