Abstract

PURPOSE:To attempt improvement in the weld strength of an outside electrode base body to a main body metal fitting by cutting the rear end of the outside electrode base body in such a manner that the cross-sectional area of a core member closed with a heatproof nickel alloy may be lessened toward the end portion thereof. CONSTITUTION:An outside electrode base body 9 is formed by engaging a core member 2 into a cup compact 1 to form an engaged body 3, submitting this engaged body 3 to diffused heat treatment for manufacturing a jointed body 4, then forming it into an extursion-moulded body 7 and a subsequent rectangle-shaped body 8 through casting dies 5, 6, and annealing the rectangle-shaped body. Besides, the rear end of the outside electrode base body 9 is cut in such a manner that the cross-sectional area of the core member 2 enclosed with a heatproof nickel alloy may be decreased toward the end portion thereof to be manufactured into a formed outside electrode base body 9a which is allowed to be resistance-welded to the main body metal fitting 90 of a spark plug. Thus, the bonding strength of the outside electrode base body is considerably improved as compared with the case where the core member 2 is interposed between welding fases. Also, after welding, the outside electrode base body completely prevents the core member 2 from being exposed outside the outer electrode so that the outer electrode is made difficult to be corroded.

[Claims] 1) A method for manufacturing and welding an outer electrode of a spark plug wrapped in a metal with good thermal conductivity, which comprises the following steps. (a) Process of forming a cup molded body from a heat-resistant nickel alloy. (a) A process in which a core material made of a metal with good thermal conductivity such as copper, silver, or an alloy thereof is inserted to form a fitted body. (c) A step of manufacturing a joined body by subjecting the fitted body to diffusion heat treatment to bond the interface. (d) A step of cold extruding the joined body through a die having a circular die hole cross section to form the joined body into an extrusion molded body. (E) A step of passing the extrusion molded product through a die having a rectangular die hole cross section on the exit side and forming it into a rectangular shape. (F) A step of annealing the rectangular body to form an outer electrode base. (g) A step of cutting the rear end of the outer electrode base so that the cross-sectional area of the core material surrounded by the heat-resistant nickel alloy decreases toward the end. (h) The process of welding this formed outer electrode base to the main metal fitting of the spark plug. 2) The spark wrapped in a good heat conductive metal according to claim 1, wherein a heat-resistant nickel alloy similar to the cup molded body is welded to the main metal fitting of the spark plug in advance, and then the molded outer electrode base is welded. A method for manufacturing and welding the outer electrode of a plug.
