Definitions
- the invention relates to radiofrequency plasma candles.
- the invention more particularly relates to candles called radiofrequency plasma for equipping combustion chambers of internal combustion engines and which comprise a central electrode of cylindrical form made of a conductive type material, which comprises an upper end and an end. lower part arranged in the combustion chamber, a substantially tubular shaped part, made of an electrically insulating material, which comprises an upper part and a lower part, and which surrounds the central electrode over a portion of its length so as to the lower end of the central electrode protrudes from the lower part of the insulating material part, a substantially tubular steel base which comprises an upper part and a lower part, and which surrounds the piece of insulating material on a portion of its length so that the lower part re of the piece of insulating material protrudes from the bottom of the base.
- the upper and lower terms are used to designate opposite sides of the candle.
- lower end is meant the side of the candle to be arranged in the combustion chamber.
- Other terms may substitute such as left / right or candle head to designate said side of the candle.
- Radiofrequency plasma spark plugs are part of these new spark plugs by constituting high-frequency multi-spark ignition systems capable of ensuring the ignition of spark ignition engines powered with poor gas mixtures.
- the base has a threaded portion at the lower end of the electrode side, which allows the screwing of the candle in the threaded hole of the cylinder head.
- Such candles also called multi-spark plasma branched candles allow the propagation of a plasma in a volume remote from the surface of the insulation.
- the creation of sparks then tends to be generated between a central electrode and the combustion chamber, in contact with the second electrode which is the base of the candle.
- the combustion chamber is then considered from the functional point of view, as the second electrode of the ignition system.
- the two electrodes are separated by an insulator represented by a tubular piece of insulating material, preferably ceramic, which surrounds the central electrode on a portion of its outer surface.
- the publication FR2878086 presents this type of candle, where the insulating part between the electrodes has an annular shoulder obscuring the entire toric surface at the end of the base while leaving free the end of the central electrode.
- This configuration is intended to reduce the risk of creating electrical discharges from the base and propagate along the insulating part along the axis of the central electrode.
- This mode of obtaining discharges is indeed not desired because it decreases the efficiency of the candle.
- Alternative embodiments make it possible to reduce the reinforcements of the electric field by eliminating, in particular, the right angles on said shoulder at the origin of electric arcs between the insulating part and the base, which are detrimental to the efficiency of the spark plug.
- This architecture leads to manufacturing constraints and mounting constraints, it is necessary for example to mount the piece of insulating material in the base in the opposite direction due to the shoulder at the end of the insulating part.
- the object of the invention is to remedy these drawbacks.
- the invention has a multi-spark plug where the end of the base side of the candle head is mechanically connected with the insulating part.
- the invention thus relates to a spark plug intended to equip an internal combustion engine combustion chamber and which comprises a central electrode of cylindrical shape made of a material of conductive type, which comprises an upper end and a lower end, intended to be arranged in the combustion chamber, a substantially tubular shaped part, made of an electrically insulating material which comprises an upper part and a lower part, and which surrounds the central electrode over a portion of its length so that the lower end of the central electrode protrudes from the lower part of the piece of insulating material, a substantially conductive material-type material base which comprises an upper part and a lower part having an end section, and which surrounds the piece of material insulation on a portion of its length so that the lower part of the piece of insulating material protrudes from the bottom of the base.
- the invention is characterized in that the piece of insulating material comprises an annular groove on its outer periphery, at the lower end of the base, and in that said part is metallized on its entire outer surface from its upper end to at the edge of the groove and in that the lower end portion of the base is disposed in the groove.
- end section of the cap means a portion of said base located on the border and extending over a few millimeters.
- the outer surface of the insulating part facing the base is metallized to ensure electrical continuity between the insulating part and the base.
- the goal is to prevent the creation of electric shocks between the two opposite surfaces.
- the end portion is disposed in the groove to be thus inserted in part of the insulating part, and is thus obscured with respect to the lower end of the central electrode. Problems related to metallization stoppage of the insulating part at the lower end of the base are reduced or even eliminated.
- the width and the depth of the annular groove of the insulating part are adapted so that the free section of the lower end portion of the cap is completely contained in the groove.
- the dimensions of the groove are defined so that the bottom end section of the cap is buried in the groove.
- the burial of said section makes it possible to guarantee good mechanical resistance of the spark plug to the pressure level in the combustion chamber, especially since it is produced by mechanical deformation.
- the annular groove of the piece of insulating material contains electrically insulating cement.
- the cement promotes the contacts between the end of the base once deformed and the insulating part.
- the purpose is to ensure good heat dissipation of the insulating part to the base and to the cylinder head, and also to seal the candle, while concealing the end of the cap relative to the electrode Central.
- the lower end section of the base is of reduced thickness.
- the lower section of the end section is intended to be embedded in the annular groove filled with cement.
- the reduced thickness of the section facilitates the insertion, in particular by deformation, of the section and the flooding of the end section in the annular groove.
- the inner diameter of the lower portion of the base is substantially equal to the outer diameter of the lower part of the piece of insulating material.
- the inner surface of the insulating part surrounding the central electrode is metallized.
- the inner surface of the metallized insulating piece and the central electrode are in contact and are therefore at the same potential.
- the insulating part is of single-body type and comprises two central bores of different diameters, the first for the positioning of an inductance coil, and the second for the positioning of the central electrode.
- the number of parts constituting the candle is reduced and their assembly is facilitated.
- the base comprises a first bore in the upper part and a second bore in the lower part, coaxial and of different diameters, and the assembly formed by the piece.
- of insulating material and the central electrode is fitted into the base by the upper portion of the base, and fixed in the base by gluing, with a preferably ceramic glue deposit, in the bottom of the first bore of the upper portion of the base.
- the base comprises two bores of substantially different diameters, a first bore in the upper portion of diameter greater than that of the second bore in the lower part.
- This configuration allows easy mounting by interlocking the insulating part in the / base by the upper part of the base.
- Gluing is preferably performed by a glue deposit in the bottom of the first bore in the upper portion of the base to ensure a tight and homogeneous bonding.
- the method of manufacture of the candle according to the invention comprises a step of filling the annular groove with preferably ceramic cement, followed by a step of mechanical deformation of the lower end section of the base towards the bottom of the throat.
- the annular groove is filled with cement, then the end portion is deformed towards the bottom of the groove, which ensures good contact between the cement and the end portion of the base.
- the manufacturing method of the invention comprises a step of grinding the cement surface of the annular groove of the insulating part, after drying the cement, to avoid any overflow of material.
- the bottom end section of the pellet is poured into the groove filled with ceramic cement. After drying the cement, the cement surface at the throat is ground to remove any sharp angles and obstacles and to reduce the risk of arcing on the lower end surface of the insulating part.
- a conical induction coil comprising an upper part and a lower part with a spring bushing at its lower end is inserted into the central bore in the upper part of the insulating part.
- the conical bore in the upper part of the insulating part is adapted to accommodate the induction coil, which makes mounting simple, while reducing the size of the device.
- the conical induction coil is fixed to the insulating part by bonding on its peripheral outer surface.
- the conical induction coil being introduced into the conical bore in the upper part of the insulating part, the adhesive on the peripheral surface of the coil makes it possible to ensure a contact without vacuum between the coil and the insulating part thanks to the conicity of the the assembly, while ensuring the fixing of said coil vis-à-vis the insulating part.
- the spring bushing is engaged on the upper end of the central electrode, at the end of sliding of the coil in the central bore of the insulating part.
- the socket is adapted to be connected to the upper end of the central electrode, which simplifies assembly of the assembly.
- an electrode 10 of substantially cylindrical form of conductive material and comprising an upper end 18 and a lower end 17 intended to be in contact with the gaseous mixture, is maintained by any means (brazing, bonding, sintering, etc.) ensuring a contact, in a bore of an insulating part 11 so that the lower end 17 of the electrode protrudes from the part 11.
- the insulating part 11 is of single-body type and comprises two end sections 33 and 35 of substantially tubular shape and of different outside diameters and a third section 34 making the connection between the two sections 33 and 35.

- the second section 33 of substantially larger outside diameter comprises an inner bore 22 slightly conical. The average diameter of this bore is substantially larger than the outer diameter of the central electrode.
- the inner bore is made such that the upper end 18 of the central electrode 10 opens into this bore.
- the entire outer surface of the sections 33 and 34 of the insulating part 11 is covered with a layer of metallic material.
- the outer surface of the section 35 being metallized from its junction with the section 34 to the edge of the annular groove 19, a metallization of a portion of the groove is tolerated because it has no effect on the operation of the spark plug.
- the inner surface 32 of the insulating part 11 surrounding the central electrode, as represented in FIG. Figures 2 and 3 may be covered with a layer of metallic material.
- the insulating part 11 is engaged in an envelope of metallic material such as steel which has two bores of different diameters to surround the sections 33 to 35 of the insulating part.
- This steel casing is the base 12 of the plug and has two sections 36 and 37 of substantially different outer diameters, separated by a groove 30.
- the section 36 has an outside diameter greater than that of the section 37.
