Description

Spark Plugs {CURRENT PEAKING SPARKPLUG}

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to spark plugs, and more particularly to storing spark plugs and electrical energy having a plurality of side-discharge cathodes and a body structured to efficiently absorb electrical energy normally lost during rise time of the ignition transformer. And releasing stored energy across the electrode gap for the first few nanoseconds upon ignition.

Many different attempts have been made to manufacture igniters (more commonly described as spark plugs) for burning fuel in an internal combustion engine. Behind these igniters, there are many devices in the ignition circuit designed to increase the efficiency of the igniter. Attempts to build more efficient igniters, or attempts to increase the efficiency of igniters, include conventional spark plugs with modifications to electrodes and / or electrode space, capacitors / capacitors in parallel with the ignition circuit, or devices that block high voltage ignition pulses. It may be described as. While these attempts have some effect on the dynamics of ignition, they are unnecessarily complex, expensive, and inefficient.

US Pat. No. 3,683,232 to Bauer discloses a spark plug cap designed to increase ignition power. This cap has an unknown amount of internal capacitance. Without knowing the size of the capacitor, it is impossible to determine the increase in power, and high-capacitance capacitors as claimed would actually deplete the ignition voltage, leading to bleeding and causing engine shutdown. Bauer's device is likely to require an ignition system with a higher output energy typically found on internal combustion engines.

U. S. Patent No. 4,751, 430 to Muller et al. Includes a spark plug connector that includes an ignition transformer and a coaxial storage capacitor coupled onto a spark plug disposed deep within the spark plug hole. This configuration can cause the engine to shut down for the same reasons as in Bauer's device.

While the method disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,272,415 to Greaseold et al. Differs from that disclosed in the Mueller and Bauer patents, the insertion of a capacitor in parallel to the ignition circuit in the spark plug presents the same problems as in the Mueller and Bauer patents. It causes another problem of excessive radio frequency interference (RFI). In vehicles manufactured in the 1990s, the use of microprocessors to monitor and modify the engine's function based on current conditions is increasing. Such microprocessors are very sensitive to RFI radiation and will malfunction or fail when the ringing capacitor discharge frequency occurs within the same range as the operating frequency of the microprocessor.

US Pat. No. 1,148,106 to Lux discloses the addition of a condenser arranged in the anode of the spark plug in combination with multiple spark plug gaps, thereby reducing the resistance at the spark plug gap and improving the operation of the spark plug. The resistance of the spark plug gap, whether single or multiple, is directly proportional to the distance between the anode and cathode of the spark plug and the pressure at the gap. In the case of multiple electrodes, this depends on the distance between the closest anode and cathode. The "silent" capacitor discharge between a pair of opposing electrodes effectively reduces the resistance between these electrodes, causing ignition sparks here rather than another pair where no ionization occurs. In the Lux patent, the reduction in resistance at the spark gap at a distance from the fuel mixture through the "silent" discharge is such that the "silent" pair of electrodes may or may not have fuel present for ignition. Let sparks occur at It is possible to ensure proper operation of the sparks without igniting the fuel.

According to the present invention, there is provided an improved spark plug having a very low resistance and inductance used in an internal combustion engine for initiating combustion of a fuel mixture. The body of the spark plug efficiently absorbs the electrical energy normally lost during the rise time of the ignition transformer, and stores the electrical energy and emits stored energy across the electrode gap for the first few nanoseconds during ignition. capacitive element).

The spark plug consists of an iron or steel body that is structured to be screwed into a conventional spark plug hole, such as formed in the cylinder head of an internal combustion engine. The body has a cylindrical extension that functions as the negative plate of the capacitor element. This body also provides a plurality of cathodes. It also consists of an anode that forms the interior of the spark plug. One end of the anode, together with two or more cathodes, forms an ignition channel in a plane perpendicular to the piston motion. The other end of the anode is connected to a high voltage ignition cable of the usual type by a resistance element. The anode also acts as the anode plate of the capacitor element. It is cylindrical and extends through the center of the body of the spark plug in the negative plate of the capacitor element. The anode houses a resistance element that connects the spark plug to the ignition system. The moldable dielectric material completely fills the space between the anode and cathode of the capacitor element over the length of the spark plug.

It is a primary object of the present invention to provide a spark plug comprising a capacitor element having a very low resistance and inductance and which is suitably formed to raise the electrical spark discharge current to the maximum.

It is a further object of the present invention to provide a spark plug which has a resistive element outside the spark discharge circuit to prevent radiation of high frequency interference and to enable the use of a very low resistive ignition cable.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a spark plug having a spark electrode shape designed to expose the length of the spark channel to the top of the piston.

It is yet another object of the present invention to provide a spark plug having an electrode shape that reduces wear of the electrode material through the coulombic effect.

It is a further object of the present invention to provide an alternative spark plug design that is compact and requires very little space over the cylinder head while maintaining the required capacitor elements.

It is another object of the present invention to provide an alternative means of connecting a high voltage ignition cable to the spark plug to prevent energy loss due to the formation of corona and unintentional sparking between the body and the cable of the spark plug.

The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and form a part of this specification, illustrate embodiments of the invention and, together with the description, serve to explain the principles of the invention.

With particular reference to FIG. 1, there is shown a spark plug 1 according to the invention, which is longer than a spark plug of conventional design. The body 2 of the spark plug has a conventional form. It may be constructed of iron, steel or other conductive material commonly used for spark plugs. Mounting hex and other general specifications of 1 ", 7/8", 13/16 ", 3/4", 5/8 "can be used. Threads 5 and seats 6 also The screws may also be 18 mm, 14 mm, 12 mm or 10 mm and the sheet may be tapered or washer Insulator 3 may be made of any suitable insulating material such as ceramic, glass or polymer, which is Provides high voltage isolation for ignition pulses up to 60 Kv. The resistive connector 4 is shown as a solid connector similar in shape to the connector of a conventional spark plug, but it may also be provided as a 4 mm threaded post. The resistive connector of the present invention is similar in shape to a conventional connector, but differs in material and function as described below.

The spark gap 9 is not conventional and the spark channel is rotated to a position 90 degrees from the plane of motion of the piston in the cylinder. In addition, there are two or more cathodes 7 instead of the usual single cathode. This is necessary to reduce the loss of electrode material due to the Coulomb effect.

Referring now to FIG. 2, the capacitor element is shown in an axial cross section. The cylindrical plate 10 of the cathode is an extension of the body 2. The dielectric insulator 11 completely surrounds the cylindrical plate 8 of the anode in the cylindrical plate 10 of the cathode except where the center electrode is exposed in the spark gap 9.

The dielectric constant Dc of the dielectric insulator 11 is important for the design of the spark plug. The space between the negative electrode plate 10 and the positive electrode plate 8 determines the capacitance of the present invention with respect to the dielectric constant Dc of the insulating material and the length of the plates 10, 8. The optimum capacitance for ignition systems currently provided by automotive manufacturers is 80 to 120 picofarads (pF), which is a very small capacitance.

The material selected as the insulator dictates the length of the extended portion of the body. The larger the dielectric constant, the shorter the length of the extended part of the body. For example, using the derivative of a liquid crystal polymer (LCP), preferably having a dielectric constant of 4.5, the capacitance of the present invention can be predetermined by a formula. The capacitance is obtained by multiplying the material's dielectric constant (Dc) (4.5 for LCP) by a constant (1.4122) and dividing this value by the natural logarithm of the quotient divided by the inner diameter of the cathode plate divided by the outer diameter of the anode plate (8). Equal, multiply this value by the length of the shortest plate. This value is calculated as follows to produce a capacitor of 80pF.

(1.4122) X (4.5) 6.35590

Capacitance = ---------------- = --------- = 25.74292

Nlog (0.320 / 0.250) 0.24868

The calculated result of 25.74292 is the capacitance per inch. If such a device has a capacitance of 80 pF, the shortest plate should be 3.11 inches long. If a material such as Kapton® has a dielectric constant greater than LCP, the length of the extended portion of the body can be shorter. LCP and Kapton are also preferred dielectric materials because they can each be shaped to completely enclose the cylindrical plate 8 of the anode in the cylindrical plate 10 of the cathode. Many other suitable dielectric materials lack this formability.

In choosing a dielectric material, it is important to consider not only the dielectric constant but also the dielectric strength, which is the ability of the material to withstand a certain voltage. The properties of this material are expressed in volts per mil (V / 0.001). For LCP, the dielectric material selected in this embodiment, the dielectric strength is 950 V / mil. For a space of 0.070 "(70 mils), the total" voltage hold-off "of the material is 66.5 Kv, which is sufficient for operating voltages below 20 Kv or peaks below 60 Kv.

The design of such a capacitor element reduces the inductance to near zero, maximally carrying the stored energy in the shortest possible time. The frequency of discharge and subsequent ringing is from 100 MHz to 250 MHz. In order to attenuate or eliminate the RFI associated with 250 MHz radiation, a resistance connector 4 of 2,000 to 5,000 ohms is permanently attached to the end of the cylindrical plate 8 of the anode to connect the plate to the high voltage cable of the ignition system. This resistance connector 4 may have a solid profile designed for snap on cable connectors or may have a male threaded shape, for example 4 mm X 0.7, as applied to most European spark plugs. have. The resistive connector can be constructed of a variety of materials that provide the required resistance and can be machined to the desired shape. Carbon fiber materials are particularly suitable for this purpose.

The central electrode 8 may be constructed of a solid bar of conductive material or of a hollow shape. The center electrode must be made of a highly conductive material and, when exposed to the arc channel of the spark, it must be made of a solid structure. In order to improve the field effect, promote more consistent spark discharges, and reduce electrode wear due to electron transfer effects, high conductive materials such as platinum, silver or gold are applied to the tips and cathodes of the central electrode. It is preferable. Such techniques are well known in the art.

It is desirable to protect the portion of dielectric insulator 11 that protrudes into the combustion chamber from being exposed to heat above 1,000 ° F. Particularly preferred is to coat the dielectric insulator with a heat and fire resistant material such as ceramic to prevent breakage. Ceramic cladding is well known in the spark plug art. In the absence of a protective coating, otherwise preferred dielectric materials will generally burn out on surfaces exposed to flame. Such alterations will ultimately lead to device failure. An alternative to the sheath is to apply the ceramic cones described below.

3A and 3B, the cathode 7 should be spaced at the same distance from the positive center electrode 8 and the tip should be the same arc as the arc generated by the circumference of the center electrode. There may be any number of cathodes 7. However, a single electrode suffers from excessive wear, which is reduced by using two or more electrodes.

4A and 4B, it is shown that a number of cathodes are particularly well developed around the anode. The "crown" 12 of the cathode is shown, which maintains a spark gap consistent with the tip 13 of the anode extension in the form of "petal". The distance between the anode and the cathode is adjusted by bending the cathode away from the anode to meet the automotive manufacturer's specifications for spark gap space. This space is determined by the manufacturer of the engine and ignition system that meets the requirements for spark discharge and ignition capabilities. It is not desirable to increase or decrease the space from a particular manufacturer's setting.

The “crown” and “petal” of these cathodes and anodes provide a very stable field enhancement area for ionization to occur. The effect of ionization caused by heat is reduced, as is the effect of electrode wear, which will increase the voltage required for ionization. This electrode pattern will also reduce spark jitter (which is a fluctuation in the ionization voltage commonly found in the idling of internal combustion engines). Any chosen electrode pattern should provide a smooth curved electrode tip for stable discharge voltage in the cylinder whose cycle to cycle state, such as idling, is not very consistent. The electrode pattern may consist of a number of individual arced points of 2 to 20 or more.

5A and 5B show the resistive connector 4 of the present invention in more detail. It can be constructed of any suitable material that provides the desired resistance such as 5,000 ohms. The resistive element can be configured in any number of shapes to attach to the high voltage cable exiting the transformer. Shown are the two most common connector shapes used for spark plugs. One is a solid hourglass shape 14 intended to be used for cables with snap ring detents as commonly used in American automobiles. Threading feature 15 is more commonly used in European automobiles. The resistive connector according to the present invention can be manufactured in any configuration to provide the resistance required to effectively avoid the RFI radiated from the current " ringdown " cycle of the present invention.

6 illustrates the use of ceramic cones 16 to isolate dielectric insulator 11 from high temperature and oxidation conditions in the combustion chamber. 6 also shows an alternative form for the anode 8 consisting of hollow and solid sections. Also shown in detail are the preferred means of achieving a stable mechanical coupling between the dielectric insulator 11 and the cone 16 and the body 2.

Dielectric insulators 11 suitable for use in the present invention are generally capable of withstanding the high temperatures present in the combustion chamber. However, these materials often deteriorate when exposed to combustion flames. Typically, the insulating material tracks along the charred surface on the surface, providing a path for sparks to bypass the cathode and move to ground. In order to prevent this result, it is preferable to use a prefabricated ceramic cone 16 which receives the anode 8 and is inserted into the body 2. As can be seen from FIG. 6, the ceramic cone, once positioned, protects the dielectric insulator from combustion flames.

In manufacture, the ceramic cone 16 is coupled into the tapered sheet 17 of the body 2 and the anode 8 is inserted into the cone. This assembly is then injection molded into dielectric insulator 11. The tapered sheet 17 prevents the injection molded internal element of the present invention from falling into the combustion chamber. Conversely, a retaining backcut 18 may be utilized in the body to prevent the internal elements of the present invention from escaping from the body 2 during high combustion pressures. The backcut or serrated recess may have a pointed shoulder as shown or may have a round or oval shape that is sufficient to prevent back movement of the ceramic cone 16 and anode 8 during a high pressure combustion process. . It is also desirable to provide a means for mechanically connecting between the ceramic cone 16 and the dielectric insulator 11. It is particularly desirable to apply a series of conical ridges 19, but alternative mechanical connections well known in the art may also be used.

6 also shows the structure of the anode 8 applying the hollow section. This section can be made of any highly conductive material such as steel, iron, copper or other materials known in the spark plug art. The section of the anode 8 received by the ceramic cones 16 is hollow and is formed of a material that is superior to the average conductivity, such as copper or other materials commonly applied in the manufacture of spark plugs.

The embodiment of the current peaking spark plug described above is considered the best embodiment of the present invention. However, it is recognized that a variant of the invention is preferred, particularly for applications where a more compact spark plug is required for multi-valve cylinder heads where physical space is very limited. In a narrow physical space, it is desirable to connect the high voltage ignition cable to the anode in the capacitor element, which offers the advantage of reducing RFI or electromagnetic radiation from the spark plug. In some applications, it is desirable to provide an installation hex that is removed from the cylinder head as far as possible to facilitate installation of the spark plug and to eliminate the need for special tools. It is also desirable to provide a plurality of positive and negative capacitor plates in the spark plug. This ability is essential to accommodate future developments in ignition systems. The preferred embodiment provides a capacitance of 80 to 120 pF, which corresponds electrically to current ignition articles from manufacturers and after service market suppliers. Developments by these higher energy ignition system companies will require increased capacitance plugs to maintain physical size while maintaining high electrical transmission efficiency.

7-10 illustrate alternative embodiments of the current picking spark plug invention that provide these improvements, respectively. FIG. 7 discloses a compact spark plug having one means for attaching a high voltage ignition cable to the anode in the capacitor element. Figure 8 discloses a similar compact spark plug with alternative means for attaching a high voltage ignition cable to the anode in the capacitor element. Figure 9 discloses a more compact spark plug having a plurality of positive and negative capacitor plates, which can provide very high spark energy. 10 discloses a very compact spark plug, which is physically smaller than a conventional spark plug and is particularly useful for limited physical space. 10 also discloses other means for attaching the high voltage ignition cable to the anode in the capacitor element and means for shielding the connection to minimize RFI or electromagnetic radiation. 9 and 10 disclose alternative positions for the installation hex.

It should be understood that each embodiment shown in FIGS. 7-10 includes a body, a screw, a spark gap, an anode and a cathode, a capacitor element, and a dielectric material as previously described for the preferred embodiment. For clarity, the description of these design elements is not repeated below, but it should be considered that the embodiments shown in FIGS. 7-10 are variations of the preferred embodiment shown in FIGS. 1-6 and described above.

Referring to FIG. 7, the anode 20 is cylindrical and has one end open to expose the central cavity for insertion of a high voltage ignition cable (not shown). Attached to the electrode 20 by conventional means is a clip 21 made of a conductive material to have two or more spikes 22 to make electrical connection with the high voltage cable. A resistance 23 of 2,000 to 5,000 ohms is positioned between the clip and the conductive connector 24 to hold the central conductor of the high voltage cable. The insulator 25 is positioned to insulate the electrode 20 from the clip 21 and prevent electrical connections therebetween until charge passes through the resistor 23. The connector 24 electrically connects the resistor and the electrode 20. An all-weather seal 25 is tightly formed around the outer diameter of the high voltage ignition cable and the spark plug to prevent moisture or other elements from entering the open cavity. The resistor 23 may be constructed of a resistive material as described above with respect to the resistive connector 4 or may be a resistor wired between the clip 21 and the connector 24 by conventional means. It is particularly preferred that the clips, resistors and connectors be molded into a single element. The negative electrode plate 26 of the present invention can be shown as completely surrounded by a dielectric insulating material 27.

It is desirable to connect the high voltage ignition cable to the positive electrode plate with a resistance of 2,000 to 5,000 ohms. This assembly provides electrical shielding against instantaneous high frequency interference that may radiate from the connection of the ignition cable terminal and the bipolar plate. This resistance is necessary to classify the RFI emissions generated during spark generation. This interference is the oscillating anode-cathode frequency in the same band as the operating frequency of the engine control computer system, and this interference will cause the computer to malfunction if not removed or classified as grounded to the source. It is more desirable to place the ignition cable in the capacitor element, since this provides additional protection against RFI radiation.

Referring to FIG. 8, an alternative means for connecting the central electrode 20 and the high voltage ignition cable 28 is shown. As shown in FIG. 7, the anode 20 of the present invention is hollow and has one end open to allow insertion of the ignition cable 28. Attached to the positive electrode 20 by conventional means is a nonconductive connector 30, which is a conductive spike connected by conventional means to a resistance 31 of 2,000 to 5,000 ohms attached to the positive electrode by conventional means. Provides 29. An all-weather seal 25 is formed tightly around the ignition cable 28 and the outer diameter of the present invention to prevent moisture or other elements from entering into the open cavity. The cathode 26 of the present invention may be shown as completely surrounded by dielectric insulating material 27.

Referring now to FIG. 9, a plurality of positive electrode plates 35 and negative electrode plates 36 are more capable of retaining capacitor electrical size while reducing the overall length of the present invention for applications in which physical size inhibitors are located. It is shown in relation to providing significant oppositely charged opposing surfaces. A tower 37 is provided to prevent arcing across the installation hex 38, which makes it possible to install a spark plug in the cylinder head. The connection of the ignition cable 28 is provided by the spike 39. Such a connection can alternatively be achieved by a snap or ring connector or by other means common in the art. Attached directly to spike 39 is a 2,000-5,000 Ohm resistive material 40 that connects ignition cable 28 to anode 35. The dielectric insulating material 43 is shown to completely insulate the plurality of positive electrode plates 35 from the negative electrode plate 36. The resistor 40 is attached to the anode 35 by conventional means. In addition, an interlock 41 is shown to help secure the capacitor element to the body 42 to prevent movement or release of the element during the high pressure combustion process.

10 shows another means of connecting the ignition cable 28 to the anode 54. A stop and ring clip retaining member is shown at 50, which is used to secure the connector 49 to the retaining cup 51. The connector 49 may be constructed of a resistive material as described above for the resistive connector 4. Retaining cup 51 is attached to anode 54 by copper staples 52 that provide fixed and conductive attachment. Other conventional means of attaching the cup 51 to the anode 54 may be used. The dielectric material element 55 extends almost over the length of the spark plug to separate the body of the spark plug from the anode element of the spark plug.

10 also shows an alternative means for mutually coupling the capacitor element of the invention to the body of the spark plug. The interlocks of the anodes are shown at 46 and 47, whereby the combination of penetration of the inflated central electrode 48 and the body 45 acts to effectively lock the capacitor element to the base of the spark plug. The upper interlock 46 serves to limit the movement of the capacitor element during operation of the present invention while maintaining the relationship between the positive and negative plates, which prevents operating losses due to changes in capacitance during temperature changes with the operation. It works.

Modifications can be made within the invention without departing from the spirit and the object of the invention. While these various modifications have already been described, those skilled in the art will be able to make other modifications by the present specification. Accordingly, the invention is not intended to be limited to the manner described in the appended claims.
