Definitions
- Ignition coil for ignition systems of internal combustion engines Ignition coil for ignition systems of internal combustion engines
- the invention relates to an ignition coil according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Ignition coils which have a sleeve-shaped secondary connecting part which projects from the housing of the ignition coil and which leads to the high voltage to the spark plug, consisting of a connecting dome and a spark plug connector which is thereby captively coupled.
- the coupling point between the connector dome and the spark plug connector is designed in such a way that the spark plug connector can be pivoted to a small extent with respect to the connector dome which projects rigidly from the housing of the ignition coil.
- This pivoting serves to compensate for tolerances between the ignition coil, which is attached directly to the cylinder head, and the spark plug, which is fixed in a niche in the cylinder head of the internal combustion engine. Since the plug niche has a larger inner diameter than the outer diameter of the spark plug or the spark plug connector connected to the ignition coil, it can occur in rare cases that the spark plug connector does not touch the spark plug when the ignition coil is mounted on the cylinder head slides, but gets into the space between the wall of the candle niche and the spark plug. This incorrect assembly is generally not recognized during the initial operation of the internal combustion engine, since, given the high voltage offered by the ignition coil, the spark plug which has not been properly contacted receives a reduced but sufficient ignition voltage due to arcing.
- the ignition coil according to the invention with the characterizing features of claim 1 has the advantage that the aforementioned shortcomings are avoided to a satisfactory extent.
- a centering sleeve is captively attached to the spark plug connector of the ignition coil. With the ignition coil supplemented in this way, even in poor installation conditions, it is ensured that the spark plug connector is immersed centrally in the plug niche in relation to the spark plug and that the internal combustion engine is properly operated even in unfavorable operating conditions by the reliable contacting of the spark plug with the ignition coil.
- Advantageous developments of the invention are described in the subclaims. According to claims 2 and 3, a captive arrangement of the centering sleeve on the spark plug connector is achieved and, according to claim 6, a satisfactory ventilation of the candle recess.
- the single figure shows the ignition coil in partial section with which the spark plug contacts.
- An ignition coil 11 for ignition systems of internal combustion engines for motor vehicles is fixed in the single figure in a manner not shown on the cylinder head 12 of an internal combustion engine.
- the ignition coil 11 is largely covered by a pot-shaped housing 13 made of glass fiber reinforced thermoplastic material.
- this includes a core made of magnetically conductive material, one leg of which carries a primary winding and a secondary winding.
- a primary connection part 14 is attached to the housing 13, via which the ignition coil 11 is connected to the voltage source of the motor vehicle. Furthermore, a sleeve-shaped secondary connection portion 17 protrudes perpendicular to a filling side 16 of the housing 13. This forms the high-voltage output of the ignition coil 11 and is contact means to a spark plug 18 which is mounted in a plug niche 20 in the cylinder head 12.
- the Sekiind ranschlußteil 17 is anchored in the ignition coil 11; this is completely poured out with an electrically insulating potting compound made of epoxy resin, which, when cured, closes the pot-shaped housing 13 on the filling side 16 and firmly encloses the secondary connecting part 17 at its point of exit from the filling side 16.
- the secondary connecting part 17 is constructed in two pieces with a connecting dome 19 rigidly fixed in the ignition coil 11 and a spark plug connector 21 coupled to it.
- the connecting dome 19 consists of a metallic pin 22, which is almost completely covered with an insulator 23 made of thermosetting plastic. Only the end region of the pin 22 pointing away from the ignition coil 11 is uninsulated.
- the pin 22 here has an axial pocket hole 24 and on the circumference an outer annular groove 26 which has a passage to the blind hole 24 on one side and receives a retaining ring 27 which projects through the passage into the blind hole 24 on one side.
- a suitably shaped metallic counterpart of the spark plug connector 21, which is no longer shown, can be inserted into the blind hole 24, which thereby remains locked in place with the securing ring 27.
- This electrically conductive coupling point between the connecting dome 19 and the spark plug connector 21 enables the spark plug connector 21 to pivot slightly with respect to the connecting dome 19 rigidly connected to the ignition coil 11.
- the connecting dome 19 and thus also the end region of the pin 22 is encased in an insulating manner by a plug 28 made of silicone rubber of the spark plug connector 21 when the spark plug connector 21 is coupled to the connecting dome 19.
- the grommet 28, which surrounds the spark plug connector 21 with all of its generally known and unspecified contact parts for the connecting dome 19 and for the spark plug 18, is sleeve-shaped and has a cylindrically stepped outer shape with a shoulder facing the ignition coil 11 29, which separates a first section 31 from a second section 32 of larger diameter.
- the first section 31 has an annular bead 33, eccentrically in the longitudinal direction, facing the larger section 32.
- the annular bead 33 forms a latching means for a centering sleeve 34 which can be pushed over the grommet 28.
- the centering sleeve 34 has a slightly conical outer shape and closes on the face side on the one hand with a small and on the other hand with a large diameter.
- the inner shape of the centering sleeve 34 contains two cylindrical areas which are essentially designed as stepped inner cylinders and are connected by a conical inner shoulder 36, a first area 37 which closes at the end with the large diameter and a second area 38 which is opposite the first area 37 has a larger inner diameter and ends at the end with the small diameter.
- the centering sleeve 34 with the second area 38 is pushed over the first section 31 of the spout 28.
- the annular bead 33 of the spout 28 temporarily reaches the first area 37 of the centering sleeve 34, which is smaller in diameter by a press play than that of the annular bead 33, until the centering sleeve 34 of the centering sleeve 34 comes to lie on the shoulder 29 of the sleeve 28 of the annular bead 33 on the end face behind the first area 37 and springing the centering sleeve 34 is positively locked to the spout 28.
- the centering sleeve 34 thus fixed on the grommet 28 is additionally fixed on the grommet by the first section 31 of the grommet 28 being pushed onto the connecting dome 19 until the coupling between the pin 22 and the spark plug connector 21 has taken place.
- the spout 28 experiences in its first section 31 a widening in diameter due to the outer dimension of the insulator 29, from which the annular bead 33 is also gripped, so that the centering sleeve 34 can no longer be detached from the spout 28.
- the ignition coil 11, supplemented in this way with the centering sleeve 34, can now be mounted on the cylinder head 12 in such a way that the spark plug connector 21 always slides centrally onto the spark plug 18, since the centering sleeve 34, with its outer shape adapted to the internal geometry of the candle recess 20, taking into account a play of movement leads the spark plug connector 21 in the candle niche 20 centrally.
- the centering sleeve 34 is provided on its outer jacket with a plurality of longitudinal grooves 39.
- the centering sleeve 34 can also be used in a multi-spark ignition coil that supplies a plurality of spark plugs 18 with ignition energy. be set.
- This multi-spark ignition coil has, in addition to the previously described secondary connection part 17, further secondary connection parts which are generally flexibly connected to the multi-spark ignition coil via ignition cables.
- the assembly of these secondary connection parts 17 on the spark plugs is particularly susceptible to faults and can also be carried out without errors by inexperienced assembly personnel through the use of centering sleeves 34.
