An ignition coil for an internal combustion engine is disclosed in JP-A-55-460.
No. 67, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 58-111912 and the like are known. In all of these, one set of U-shaped cores constitutes a closed magnetic circuit (iron core). Therefore, if an attempt is made to increase the cross-sectional area of the closed magnetic circuit, the portion protruding to the outer peripheral portion of the coil also becomes large, which leads to an increase in the size of the closed magnetic circuit (iron core), that is, an increase in the size of the ignition coil. As a solution to this inconvenience, the ignition coil for internal combustion engine shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 has been proposed.

As described above, according to the present invention, the eddy current loss in the conventional cross-shaped arm portion is eliminated, and the number of cutting points of the magnetic force lines is reduced, so that the secondary voltage can be measured up. That is, higher output can be achieved with the same volume as compared with the conventional one, and conversely, smaller output can be achieved with the same output. Further, there is an advantage that the heat dissipation is good because the number of joints of the core member that achieves the iron core is small. Furthermore, the core member that constitutes the iron core can be configured with a small number of types, and there is an effect that the number of parts and the cost can be reduced. Also, since the magnetic circuit is composed of a plurality of closed magnetic circuits, the ignition coil can be downsized.
