Definitions
- the present invention relates to a spark plug having an antenna for radiating electromagnetic waves, and an internal combustion engine equipped with the spark plug.
- spark plugs having an antenna for radiating electromagnetic waves are known.
- Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2010-101174 discloses this type of spark plug.
- FIG. 2 of JP 2010-101174A describes a spark plug in which an antenna is provided on the surface of the lower end of the insulator.
- the antenna is formed of an arc-shaped metal foil having a predetermined width so as to surround the center electrode with a space from the center electrode.
- a microwave is applied from a high-voltage AC generator.
- the plasma generated by the microwave reacts with the spark discharge, and the air-fuel mixture is ignited.
- the conventional spark plug can enhance the ignitability of the air-fuel mixture by increasing the electric field strength in the region where discharge occurs due to the high frequency radiated from the antenna. Therefore, in the internal combustion engine using the spark plug, the fuel loss can be improved by reducing the pumping loss by making the air-fuel mixture lean.
- the present invention has been made in view of such a point, and an object of the present invention is to provide a spark plug having an antenna for radiating a high frequency to a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine.
- the purpose is to increase the propagation speed.
- the antenna is disposed at a position near the outer periphery on the tip surface of the second conductive member.
- the antenna is located on the side away from the region where the discharge is generated on the tip surface of the second conductive member.
- a seventh invention includes an internal combustion engine main body in which a combustion chamber is formed, and the ignition plug according to any one of the first to sixth attached to the internal combustion engine main body, and discharge of the ignition plug And an internal combustion engine that radiates high frequency from the antenna to the combustion chamber.
- An eighth invention includes an internal combustion engine main body in which a combustion chamber is formed, and a spark plug according to any one of the first to sixth attached to the internal combustion engine main body, and ignites an air-fuel mixture. Immediately after, an internal combustion engine that radiates high frequency from the antenna to the combustion chamber.
- the spark plug provided with the antenna on the surface of the second conductive member is attached to the internal combustion engine body. High frequency waves are radiated from the antenna to the combustion chamber immediately after the mixture is ignited.
- the antenna is provided on the surface of the second conductive member that is distant from the region where the discharge occurs in the spark plug. Therefore, compared with the conventional spark plug, the high-frequency energy supplied to the region where the discharge occurs is reduced, and the high-frequency energy supplied to the outside of the region where the discharge occurs increases. High-frequency energy is supplied to the region through which the flame surface passes immediately after ignition. Therefore, the influence of high-frequency energy on flame propagation increases, and the flame propagation speed can be increased.

It is a block diagram of the ignition device and electromagnetic wave radiation device concerning an embodiment. It is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of the ignition plug which concerns on embodiment.

- the electromagnetic wave emission device 50 includes an electromagnetic wave oscillator 52 that oscillates a microwave of a gigahertz band (for example, a microwave of 2.45 GHz), and an antenna 54 that radiates the microwave supplied from the electromagnetic wave oscillator 52 to the combustion chamber 20. And.
- the electromagnetic wave radiation device 50 radiates microwaves from the antenna 54, supplies microwave energy to the flame after ignition, and increases the propagation speed of the flame after ignition.
- the internal combustion engine 10 is controlled by an electronic control unit 60 (ECU). -Internal combustion engine body-
- the cylinder head 22 is placed on the cylinder block 21 with the gasket 18 in between.
- the cylinder head 22 forms a combustion chamber 20 having a circular cross section together with the cylinder 24 and the piston 23.
- the diameter of the combustion chamber 20 is, for example, about half of the wavelength of the microwave emitted by the electromagnetic wave emission device 50.
- the cylinder head 22 is provided with one spark plug 15 that constitutes a part of the ignition device 40 for each cylinder 24.
- the tip portion 15 a exposed to the combustion chamber 20 is located at the center of the ceiling surface of the combustion chamber 20 (surface exposed to the combustion chamber 20 in the cylinder head 22).
- a center electrode 31 and a ground electrode 34 that form a discharge gap are provided at the distal end portion 15 a of the spark plug 15. Details of the spark plug 15 will be described later.
- the ignition device 40 is provided corresponding to each combustion chamber 20.
- the ignition device 40 supplies a high frequency to the combustion chamber 20 to generate powerful plasma that is stronger than the spark discharge.
- the ignition device 40 includes an ignition coil 41 that outputs a high voltage pulse, an AC voltage generator 42 that outputs an alternating current (for example, a high frequency of 100 MHz) from a kilohertz band to a megahertz band, The mixing unit 43 for mixing the high voltage pulse output from the coil 41 and the AC output from the AC voltage generator 42, and the above-described spark plug 15 to which the high voltage pulse and AC output from the mixing unit 43 are supplied. And.
- the ignition device 40 receives an ignition signal from the electronic control device 60, the ignition device 40 performs the ignition operation.
- the ignition coil 41 constitutes a high voltage pulse application unit that applies a high voltage pulse to the center electrode 31 of the spark plug 15 to generate a spark discharge in the discharge gap.
- the AC voltage generator 42 constitutes a plasma expansion unit that expands the discharge plasma generated along with the spark discharge to generate strong plasma by supplying electric energy to the center electrode 31.
- the frequency of the AC voltage output from the AC voltage generator 42 is set so that an induction electric field is formed in the combustion chamber 20.
- the frequency of the microwave oscillated by the electromagnetic wave oscillator 52 is set so that a radiation electric field (radiation electric field) is formed in the combustion chamber 20.
- the frequency of the AC voltage is lower than the frequency of the microwave output from the electromagnetic wave oscillator 52.
- the mixing unit 43 outputs a high voltage pulse and an alternating current received at separate input terminals to the center electrode 31 of the spark plug 15 from the same output terminal.
- a spark discharge is generated in the discharge gap by the high voltage pulse, and an electric field is formed in the discharge gap by the high voltage alternating current.
- the discharge plasma generated by the spark discharge expands into an intense plasma upon receiving AC electrical energy. That is, in the region where the spark discharge is generated, the spark discharge and the electric field react to generate intense plasma. Intense plasma is thermal plasma.
- the spark plug 15 includes a spark plug body 30 and the antenna 54.
- the spark plug body 30 includes a center electrode 31, an insulator 32, a housing 33, and a ground electrode 34.
- the spark plug body 30 is mounted in the plug mounting hole of the cylinder head 22. When a potential difference is applied between the center electrode 31 and the housing 33, the spark plug body 30 generates a discharge at the tip side exposed to the combustion chamber 20 and ignites the air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber 20.
- the spark plug 15 is a non-resistance plug in which no resistance is provided on the center electrode 31. Note that the spark plug 15 is not necessarily a plug without resistance, and a resistor may be provided in the middle of the center electrode 31.
- the electronic control device 60 outputs an electromagnetic wave drive signal after the mixture is ignited (after a predetermined time from the output of the ignition signal).
- the electromagnetic wave drive signal is output before the flame surface extending from the inside of the antenna 54 passes.
- the antenna 54 is provided on the surface of the housing 33 that is distant from the region where discharge occurs in the spark plug 15. Therefore, microwave energy can be supplied to the region through which the flame surface after ignition passes, so that the propagation speed of the flame can be increased.
- microwaves are radiated from the antenna 54 to the combustion chamber 20 at the same time as the discharge of the spark plug 15.
- the electronic control device 60 outputs an ignition signal and an electromagnetic wave drive signal at an ignition timing at which the piston 23 is positioned before the compression top dead center.
- microwaves are radiated from the antenna 54 during the period when the strong plasma generated by the ignition device 40 is generated.
- the powerful plasma generated by the ignition device 40 absorbs microwave energy and expands further.
- Plasma expanded by microwaves has a lower temperature overall than before expansion. Therefore, the lifetime of active species such as OH radicals is longer than before expansion. Accordingly, the chemical reaction (oxidation reaction) of the air-fuel mixture is promoted, and the flame propagation speed can be increased by the active species.
- the antenna 54 is disposed at a position away from the region where the discharge occurs, it is avoided that electric energy is excessively concentrated in the region where the discharge occurs.
- Microwaves are emitted from the outside of the strong plasma generated by the ignition device 40, and the strong plasma is effectively expanded. Therefore, the propagation speed of the flame can be effectively increased by the microwave.
- the embodiment may be configured as follows.
- the antenna 54 may be formed in an annular shape instead of a C-shape.
- the present invention is useful for an ignition plug having an antenna for radiating electromagnetic waves and an internal combustion engine provided with the ignition plug.
