Abstract:
An igniter for an internal combustion engine is disclosed. The igniter may have a body, and a pre-combustion chamber integral with the body and having at least one orifice. The igniter may also have at least one electrode associated with the pre-combustion chamber. The at least one electrode may be configured to direct RF energy to lower an ignition breakdown voltage requirement of an air and fuel mixture in the pre-combustion chamber. The RF energy alone may be insufficient to ignite and sustain combustion of the air and fuel mixture. The at least one electrode may also be configured to generate an arc that extends to an internal wall of the pre-combustion chamber and ignites the air and fuel mixture.

Abstract:
An ignition coil for an internal combustion engine has a first housing, a second housing, a holder, an insulating resin and a crack extension restrictor. The first housing encloses a center core, a primary coil and a secondary coil. The second housing has an install portion and a cylinder-shaped fitting portion fitted to a top cylindrical portion of the first housing. The holder is laid over top ends of the primary and secondary coils. The insulating resin is charged in an annular cavity defined at least by uppermost portions of the primary and secondary coils, the fitting portion and the holder and in contact with the fitting portion. The crack extension restrictor is formed by a part of the fitting portion and a part of the holder and disposed above the fitting faces of the fitting portion and the top end portion.
Abstract:
The cooperative operational relationship among an ignition switch, choke mechanism and air filter unit for a portable power tool are integrated in a way to improve that relationship. The ignition switch and choke mechanism are arranged in a coactive relationship wherein the ignition switch and a choke lever in the choke mechanism have engaging parts such that the ignition switch is moved to an “On” position by the choke lever when the choke lever is moved to a position where it has reduced the air flow to a carburetor. A spring engaging the ignition switch is biased for applying a force to the ignition switch in a direction toward a mounting element on which the ignition switch is mounted and away from the choke lever. In a particular embodiment, the ignition switch is mounted on the air filter unit.
