Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an ignition coil, of the type intended to be mounted on a spark plug for the individual electrical supply of this spark plug.
  • Such coils are known comprising a magnetic core, a tubular secondary coil inside which the core is disposed and on which the secondary wire is wound, this assembly being placed in the primary coil on which the primary wire is wound.
  • a split tubular metal frame to avoid eddy currents, is placed around the assembly to ensure the return of the magnetic flux and a plastic casing encloses the whole.
  • the radial distance between primary and secondary is as large as possible. In fact, when this distance increases, the capacity of the secondary decreases and the breakdown voltage increases. In addition, for the case where, due to thermal shocks that the spark plug could undergo, micro-cracks would occur, it is advantageous to increase the breakdown path of the arc.
  • the present invention aims to overcome these drawbacks.
  • an ignition coil of the type intended to be mounted on a spark plug for the individual electrical supply of this spark plug, comprising an internal secondary winding, an external primary winding, a return armature. flow and a housing, characterized in that said housing surrounds only the secondary winding, the primary winding being wound on the housing outside of the latter, and being itself surrounded by the armature of flow return.
  • the housing can therefore be thick and therefore much easier to manufacture. In addition, it participates in the insulation and greatly limits the risks of arcing between the high-voltage output and the primary winding.
  • the housing is in the form of a member of revolution, the outer surface of which comprises a first annular recess to receive the flow return armature, and a second annular recess, included in the first axially and deeper radially, to receive the primary winding.
  • the coil shown in the figures comprises, in a known manner, a coil 1 of secondary winding, on which the secondary wire 2 is wound.
  • This secondary wire is electrically connected to a high voltage output 3.
  • the housing 4 according to the invention is arranged around the secondary winding.
  • This box is tubular and the secondary assembly is arranged inside
  • the housing 4, made of molded plastic material is of revolution and essentially comprises a body 4 'and an extension 4 "surrounding the high voltage outlet 3.
  • the body 4' is composed of a central cylindrical part 5, of an upper end flange 6 and a lower flange 7 separating part 5 of the extension 4 ".
  • the cylindrical part 5 comprises two annular recesses in steps.
  • the first 8 receives the flow return armature 9, consisting of a rolled sheet metal split along one of its generators. Included in this first recess, a second recess 10 receives the primary winding between its bottom and the frame 9.
  • the housing 4 is therefore located, according to the invention, between the two windings.
  • the coil comprises, at its upper part, a connector 20 for supplying the primary winding, and at its lower part, a nozzle 21 ensuring sealing on the spark plug.
  • a connector 20 for supplying the primary winding at its lower part, a nozzle 21 ensuring sealing on the spark plug.
  • Other waterproof terminations are possible.
  • the housing 4 is directly molded onto the secondary winding, optionally coated with a retractable sheath coated or not with glue on the inside. This avoids the presence of air, which has the effect of eliminating the high-voltage aromas.
