Definitions

  • the invention is based on a glow plug for diesel engines with a ceramic heater of the genus Main claim. It is already such a glow plug from the DE-OS 38 37 128 known in which a ceramic heater held by the tip of a cylindrical holder becomes. The ceramic heater is against the Electrically insulated holder. On the side of the cylindrical Holder facing the ceramic heater a connection device is provided which is connected to the supply voltage is contacted.
  • the ceramic heater consists of a U-shaped heating section. The both ends of the U-shaped heating section are each with contacted the connecting device.
  • a voltage is applied to the ceramic heater applied such that a current flows through the ceramic heating section from one end of the U-shaped heating section over the combustion chamber tip of the heating section flows to the other end of the U-shaped heating section.
  • the Electricity causes heating due to the resistance of the ceramic of the heating section so that it glows and that Can ignite fuel-air mixture.
  • the glow plug according to the invention with the characteristic Features of the main claim has the advantage that the area the heater most accessible to the combustible mixture because of the greater resistance the fastest way to reach the necessary ignition temperature. Thereby shorter heating times are possible.
  • the increase in resistance by reducing the cross section of the electrical conductive ceramic allows a ceramic Use a heating element with a slightly thicker wall, that then only to the desired one, from the design of the engine dependent points has a reduced cross section. As a result, the mechanical strength in particular ceramic heating section can be increased.
  • FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment the glow plug according to the invention
  • Figure 2 shows a second Embodiment
  • Figure 3 shows a third embodiment
  • Figure 4 shows schematically two possible installation variants of a glow plug in the swirl chamber of an internal combustion engine.
  • FIG. 1 shows a longitudinal section through a first embodiment the invention.
  • the glow plug is here from a cylindrical metal tube 1.
  • This cylindrical Metal tube represents the housing of the glow plug and serves by a thread 2 on the outside for screwing in in the engine block.
  • the cylindrical metal tube also serves as a holder for the glow plug, which in the Combustion chamber protrudes and here for heating the diesel mixture provides.
  • a ceramic heating device 3 as a glow plug, whose head end serves as a heating element.
  • the housing is so in the, not shown Engine block of an internal combustion engine screwed in that the end of the ceramic heater 3 in a cantilever Condition in a combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine protrudes.
  • the ceramic heater 3 is made here made of a U-shaped electrically conductive ceramic.
  • the rear end of the cylindrical metal tube 1 includes a connecting bolt 4, which by means of an insulation layer 5 electrically opposite the cylindrical metal tube 1 is isolated.
  • the connecting bolt 4 is in turn a contact 6 with the ceramic heater 3 in the kind contacted that the contact in the closed combustion chamber side Ceramic heater bottom electric is contacted.
  • Ceramic heater 3 is on its peripheral surface held by the cylindrical metal tube with the cylindrical metal tube 1 electrically contacted, so that the bottom of the ceramic chamber Heating device 3 on the one hand with the supply voltage, which, for example, of the battery, not shown a motor vehicle is delivered, connected and on the other hand via the cylindrical metal tube 1 with mass is contacted.
  • the wall thickness The ceramic heater is not about that entire ceramic heater the same. Rather, it is Wall thickness in the cantilevered end of the ceramic Heater 3 less than at its edge. This causes the resistance on the combustion chamber side the ceramic heater increased so that at at this point the ceramic heater glows first.
  • Figure 2 shows the longitudinal section of a second embodiment the invention.
  • the glow plug of Figure 2 corresponds in principle Structure of the design of Figure 1, which is why provide the individual details with the same reference numerals are and the structure for the same details not again to be explained.
  • the embodiment according to FIG. 2 is also the cross-sectional area of the ceramic heater reduced on the far side of the holder.
  • Figure 1 were here in the wall of the ceramic Heater recesses 7 introduced. With the Number, the diameter and the position of the recesses 7 can be the location of the smallest material cross section and thus the hottest place on the ceramic Heating device can be precisely defined and adjusted.
  • the Cutouts can be in the form of holes be introduced. It is only necessary to ensure that when creating the Voltage the current through the location of the ceramic heater flows at which the cross-sectional area for the Current flow is reduced and thus the resistance is increased.
  • the core of the ceramic heater is one heat-resistant, electrically insulating material filled.
  • FIG. 3 shows a third embodiment of the invention, which is to be explained with reference to FIG. 4.
  • the Figure 3 shows only the ceramic heating pin, since the Structure and arrangement of the metal pipe and the connecting device corresponds to Figures 1 to 2 and not here to be explained again.
  • Figure 4 is schematic a swirl chamber of an internal combustion engine is shown.
  • the Combustion air necessary for the combustion passes through an overflow channel 11 in the swirl chamber during the Fuel is injected into the swirl chamber via a nozzle 12 is so that a combustible mixture forms.
  • Glow plug G1 is in here the so-called current installation position, i.e. the for Combustion air flowing in overflow channel 11 of the swirl chamber hits the glow plug in the upward direction G1.
  • the tip of the glow pen is the furthest here accessible to the flammable mixture. That is why it makes sense also the point with the reduction of the cross section of the electrically conductive ceramics, as described in FIGS. 1 to 2, at the tip of the ceramic heater remote from the holder provided.
  • the second glow plug G2 installed in the so-called current reduction position. Here hits the incoming combustion air in the downward direction on the glow plug G2. For clarification was in the Vortex chamber with the dashed arrow schematically the Direction of flow entered. Because with this current reduction position the glow plug the combustible mixture in a defined Distance from the tip away from the holder to the glow plug hits, the reduced cross-section is also on attached this place. The defined distance is included depending on the design of the engine. Installation in Downstream direction is opposite to the current installation position cheaper in terms of exhaust gas values.
  • the ceramic heater in the form of the glow plug the can be kept self-supporting from the housing, of course also used as a heating device for flame candles become.
