Definitions
- the invention relates to a spark plug for one, in particular gas-fired internal combustion engine according to the generic term of claim 1.
- a spark plug is from the WO91 / 06142 known.
- spark plugs for Internal combustion engines are currently increasing significantly, particularly applies to spark plugs that are used in stationary, large-volume, high-pressure, gas-fired internal combustion engines should be used. Spark plugs for this purpose are said to have a long term in the order of have at least 5000 hours. Because such internal combustion engines Working with high pressure must pay special attention to the electrode gap be placed. Real electrode distances of 0.2 nominally set to 0.3 mm, which means that with a Experience has shown that the ignition limit of such internal combustion engines 0.5 to 0.6 mm the potential burn-up reservoir of 0.2 up to 0.3 mm is quickly used up and the ignition limit is reached quickly.
- the spark plugs currently available what does not meet the demand for a long life results in an expensive spark plug change.
- the object underlying the invention is therefore therein, a spark plug according to the preamble of the claim 1 trained so that it has a longer term.
- spark plug according to the invention can due to the Precious metal armouring small ignition gaps are formed and the electrode distance can be kept constant for a very long time.
- a large spark outlet area can be provided so that the expectations regarding the long service life can be met.
- the spark plug according to the invention can optimally develop the spark position, that is, the spark gap as far as possible in the combustion chamber in order to to ignite even extremely lean mixtures without interruptions.
- the invention further relates to a method for Manufacture of the spark plug according to the invention, the subject of Claim 16 is.
- Spark plug comprises a metallic body 1 Screw-in thread, in the center of which a ceramic insulator 2 is arranged. As shown in Fig. 1, it is a spark plug with a distorted spark position, at the insulator 2 over the front edge of the metallic body 1 also protrudes into the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine.
- a central electrode 3 is located in the center of the ceramic insulator 2 provided that together with a ground electrode 4 an ignition gap ZS forms for the formation of an ignition spark.
- the ground electrode 4 is electrically connected to the metallic body 1 and formed in the form of a ring electrode which the encloses the entire circumference of the center electrode 3.
- this is between the center electrode 3 and the ring electrode 4 ring-shaped formed that the entire jacket area of the center electrode 3 and the inner surface of the bore of the ring electrode 4 as a spark outlet surface can be used and as a burn-up reserve is available.
- the life of the spark plug with one such spark gap training is through the use of a erosion-resistant material namely a precious metal such as platinum or a platinum alloy significantly increased.
- a erosion-resistant material namely a precious metal such as platinum or a platinum alloy significantly increased.
- Fig. 1 is shown for this purpose in the entire area of the spark gap the potential spark outlet surface is lined with the precious metal.
- the center electrode 3 is in the area on the ignition side, i.e.
- the ring electrode 4 is on the inside i.e. on the surface delimiting the ignition gap with a Precious metal socket 6 provided.
- the precious metal sleeve 5 and the precious metal bushing 6 consist in particular of platinum or a platinum alloy.
- the ring electrode 4 is bent and at an angle ⁇ connected to the body 1.
- a taper at the ignition end of the center electrode 3 provided, on which the precious metal sleeve 5 is pushed or is pressed on.
- At the front of the center electrode 3 is for example, by countersinking or drilling a depression trained so that there is an annular rim.
- This Board is crimped over the noble metal sleeve 5, whereby a positive connection is achieved.
- the precious metal sleeve 5 can also be welded to the center electrode 3.
- the noble metal bushing 6 is thereby on the ring electrode 4 attached that the noble metal bushing 6 in the in the ring electrode 4 hole is inserted and pressed in and in such a way that the noble metal bushing 6 protrudes annularly over the ring electrode 4.
- the protruding one Edge of the precious metal bushing 6 is crimped or riveted to to achieve a positive connection. Even the precious metal bushing 6 can also be welded to the ring electrode 4 be.
- the ring electrode 4 is preferably bell-shaped bent at an angle ⁇ of 10 ° to 30 °. Through this weird Employing the ring electrode 4 is less metal surface Exposed to heat of combustion, so that the ring electrode 4 at Operation tends to lower glow ignitions.
- the ring electrode 4 preferably star-shaped with three memory-like tines, the bell-shaped and bent at the ends of the Body 1 are welded.
- the ring electrode 4 can with more be formed as three spoke-like teeth or only have two spokes, as shown in Fig. 4.
- At the embodiment shown in Fig. 4 follows a bow-like ring electrode when bending the prongs. This The embodiment shown in Fig. 4 has the special one The advantage of better washing around the mixture and a reduction the quenching effect, e.g. prevention of flame spread.
- Electrode ring tapers To expose less metal surface to the heat of combustion are also the memory-like spikes of the ring electrode 4 for Electrode ring tapers so that the cross section of the ring electrode 4 to the cold part of the body 1 is getting bigger and bigger optimal heat dissipation is guaranteed.
- Electrode distance ZS formed with a gap Sp1 so that the Electrode spacing, i.e. the ignition gap ZS and the gap Sp1 between the insulator tip and the lower edge of the ring electrode 4 are designed at least in a ratio of 1: 1, and according to Use up the air spark gap ZS a spark as a combined Form glide and air spark between the gap Sp1 can.
- Fig. 5 shows the work sequence of the manufacture of the center electrode 3 with a noble metal sleeve, in particular a platinum sleeve 5.
- Fig. 5A shows the center electrode 3 on the ignition side End, for example, by turning, reducing or cold extrusion is rejuvenated.
- the face of the center electrode 3 is with a recess 7, for example by sinking or Countersink drilling so that there is between the taper 8 and the recess 7 results in an annular rim 9.
- the platinum sleeve 5 over the Center electrode 3 added, i.e. in particular pushed or pressed.
- the platinum sleeve 5 with the Center electrode 3 by folding the board 9 form-safe assembled.
- the platinum sleeve 5 with the center electrode 3 after folding additionally welded or soldered.
- Fig. 6 shows the steps in the manufacture of the Ring electrode 4 in the embodiment shown in Fig. 3.
- the Outer and the inner contour of the ring electrode 4 in one piece a metal band e.g. a nickel band or a nickel alloy band made for example by stamping.
- the ring electrode 4 curved bell-shaped.
- the ring electrode 4 is reinforced with a noble metal bush 6.
- the noble metal bushing 6 is in the bore 10 of the Ring electrode 3 pressed and then the protruding Ends of the precious metal bushing 6 flanged by a to achieve form-safe reinforcement, as shown in Fig. 6D is.
- the connection between the noble metal bushing 6 and the ring electrode 4 can also be welded or soldered will.
- the ring electrode 4 made of Inconel to a good connection between the platinum socket and the Inconel ring electrode to achieve.
- the ring electrode 4 and / or the noble metal bush 6 can continue to be made from a two-material material, e.g. consists of nickel with a platinum coating. For cost reasons is then the carrier material nickel and is the erosion-resistant Platinum plating formed by surface plating. Thereby the consumption of high quality precious metal can be as low as keep possible.
- the precious metal reinforcements by mechanical Attachment, for example, by flanging and pressing. Welding the precious metal reinforcements after assembly offers an additional backup. In this way the precious metal large area, so that no concentricity problems of the Arrangement of the precious metal occur.
- FIGS. 7 and 8 show a special preferred embodiment of a method of attachment the ring electrode 4 described on the body 1.
- a centering groove 11 for the Ring electrode 4 are provided concentrically in the body 1
- Welding cams are formed on the ring electrode 4 and is then the ring electrode 4 with the welding cams in the center Arrangement in the centering groove 11 with the body 1 welded.
- the central assembly of the ring electrode 4 thus achieved leads to a uniform electrode spacing and a uniform one Heat dissipation. In this way two, three or four-pole spark plugs made of ring electrodes for 14 and 18 series Threads are manufactured.
