    摘要: A spark plug includes an insulator having an axial hole extending along an axial line, a center electrode disposed in the axial hole, a tubular metallic shell surrounding the insulator, a ground electrode whose proximal end is fixed to the metallic shell, and a cylindrical noble metal tip fixed to the ground electrode via an intermediate tip so as to form a gap between the noble metal tip and the center electrode. A weld portion is provided between the noble metal tip and the intermediate tip. The weld portion has a diameter larger than that of a portion of the intermediate tip which is adjacent to the weld portion. The noble metal tip is located inside a virtual tapered cylindrical surface which extends from a peripheral edge of a gap-side end of the center electrode so as to contact an outer circumferential edge of the weld portion.

    摘要: A spark plug having a noble metal tip that is joined to a tip-joining surface of a ground electrode so as to face an end face of a center electrode. When the noble metal tip is projected onto a projection plane parallel to the tip-joining surface, the noble metal tip has an elliptical shape in the projection plane. When the ground electrode is also projected onto the projection plane, an angle of 45° or less is formed between the major axis of the elliptical shape in the projection plane and a straight line extending in the lengthwise direction of the ground electrode and passing through the center of the noble metal tip in the projection plane.

    摘要: A spark plug having at least one center or ground electrode that includes a first base metal or a first base metal alloy and a precious metal or a precious metal alloy. The at least one electrode has a surface bordering a spark gap that is made of a composite material in which crystalline particles of the precious metal or precious metal alloy are mixed with the first base metal or the first base metal alloy, and a portion of the particles of the precious metal or precious metal alloy forms a portion of the surface that borders the spark gap.

    摘要: A spark plug comprises a ground electrode including a chip whose one end has a cylinder shape having a diameter A from 0.8 to 1.2 mm and whose main component is a noble metal, and an electrode base material. In the ground electrode, a portion of the other end of the chip is joined to the electrode base material through a fused portion. The spark plug also comprises a chip-and-base-material interface in which the chip and the electrode base material contact each other and which is surrounded by the fused portion. In a cross section passing through a center axis, a distance between an end point Pa7 located on the chip-and-base-material interface and an end point Pa5 located on an interface between the chip and the fused portion is equal to or greater than 0.7 times the diameter A.

    摘要: A spark plug for an internal combustion engine is provided which includes a housing, a porcelain insulator, a center electrode, and an annular ground electrode. The housing has a small-diameter portion which has a smaller inner diameter and defines a front end thereof. The ground electrode is secured to a front end surface of the small-diameter portion and forms a spark gap between itself and an outer periphery of the center electrode. The ground electrode is smaller in outer diameter than the front end surface of the small-diameter portion. A annular weld which joints the ground electrode and the small-diameter portion is formed in an annular boundary through which the front end surface of the small-diameter portion and the base end surface of the ground electrode face each other. The annular weld continuously and fully extends in a circumferential direction of the ground electrode.
