摘要:
A method of producing a spark plug for internal combustion engines comprising arranging a metal piece formed of a noble material on an end face of at least one metal electrode of the spark plug and directing laser beams onto an outer surface of the metal piece facing the spark gap to form an alloy zone between the one metal electrode and a wear-resistant layer facing the spark gap, the alloy zone consisting of materials of the metal electrode and the metal piece with the proportion of the material of the metal electrode continuously decreasing from an area abutting the metal electrode and consisting only of the metal electrode material, to an area abutting the wear-resistant layer which consists only of the material of the metal piece.

To simplify manufacture and assembly of a temperature-compensated titanium dioxide oxygen sensor, the sensor (9, 9') is applied as a layer on the thermistor body (1), with an electrode (8) interposed; preferably, the thermistor body is densely sintered titanium dioxide, in the form of a closed tube (1, 1') which may have a central opening (FIG. 1: 2) therethrough, with the sensor body being porous titanium dioxide and located either on the inside (FIG. 1) surface of the thermistor body (1) or on the outside (FIG. 2) surface, and supported by the thermistor body, which forms the substrate and support surface for the sensor body.
摘要:
A sparkplug for internal combustion engines which has a central electrode extending to the ignition end. The central electrode has an electrically non-conductive core pin with an electrically conductive outer layer on the cylindrical surface of the core pin. The central electrode is positioned in the lengthwise bore of the sparkplug insulator portion, preferably without any clearance between the insulator and the ignition end portion of the central electrode. The core pin is preferably made of a material which has shrinkage characteristics and a thermal coefficient of expansion substantially the same as those of the insulator. Most preferably the same material is used for both components. The electrically conductive coating layer of the central electrode is preferably a conductive metal-ceramic mixture. The coating layer may be in the form of a resistance element and/or contain a pre-ignition discharge gap. The sparkplug may also be formed with a recessed electrically conductive coating portion of the central electrode to form a surface gap sparkplug.

To permit efficient heat transfer from a carrier tube (22) surrounding a tubular solid electrolyte body (11') having outer and inner electrodes (14, 18) applied thereto, the tubular heater element carrier body (22) supports a wire or resistance track heating element (25) at the inner surface thereof, the heater element (25) being spaced from the outer surface of the solid electrolyte tube (11') forming part of the sensor element (11) by a distance at the most of 1 mm, preferably less than 0.5 mm, the wall thickness of the heater element carrier tube (22) preferably being between 0.3 and 0.8 mm thick, the carrier tube being made of ceramic, such as aluminum oxide, or internally insulated metal.
摘要:
To simplify manufacture and provide a polarographic sensor of high response speed, operating according to the current limiting principle, an oxygen molecule migration barrier is provided leading to the cathode by separating the cathode from the space where the gas to be tested exists by a wall through which a hole is provided which extends therethrough to a small space immediately above the cathode defined by support elements placed immediately on the cathode. The hole, or a plurality of holes, is so dimensioned that the diameter thereof, with respect to its length, is small, with diameters of between 0.01 to 0.06 mm and a length of at least about 1 mm being suitable.

摘要:
Stabilized zirconium dioxide compositions sintered with a silicate flux and stabilized with (i) calcium oxide and (ii) magnesium oxide. The stabilized zirconium dioxide can be sintered at temperatures between 1460.degree. C. and 1480.degree. C. to form solids having high mechanical strength and a specific resistance of 1M.OMEGA.cm at a low temperature. The invention also provides oxygen sensors containing at least one measuring cell which is an oxygen concentration cell having two electrodes separated by and in ionic communication through a solid stabilized zirconium dioxide electrolyte which is prepared from the said compositions.
