摘要:
A glow plug in which a convex portion (70) is formed in an outer peripheral surface (10b) of a heater (10) in a part facing an inner peripheral surface (137b) of a leading end part (137) of a housing (110) and interposed in a leading end side annular gap K1, so as to maintain a gap with the inner peripheral surface (137b). A decline in detection accuracy can be prevented to the extent that combustion gas can be received by the leading end (72) of the convex portion (70) even if soot clogging should occur.
摘要:
A process for hydrogenating carbon dioxide to generate methanol. In the process, a strip of copper base plate is transported by the groups of rotating drive rollers to deposit porous metallic zinc on the copper base plate. Hydrogen is generated from the porous metallic zinc upon electrochemical reactions in the inner space sealed with the above groups of rollers. Simultaneously, zinc oxide and copper oxide catalysts are formed on the porous metallic zinc. Carbon dioxide is introduced into the sealed inner space under high-temperature and high-pressure to generate methanol by hydrogenation.

A seal member (60) has a dual-tube structure consisting of an outer tubular seal member (160a) and an inner tubular seal member (160b); the outer tubular seal member (160a) is welded, at its rear end portion, to the inner circumferential surface of a forward-end housing (131), thereby forming a housing-side joint W2; the inner tubular seal member (160b) is welded, at its forward end portion, to a forward end portion of the outer tubular seal member (160a), thereby forming an inter-tubular-seal-member joint W3; and the inner tubular seal member (160b) is welded, at its portion located rearward of the joint W3, to the outer circumferential surface of the heater (10), thereby forming a heater-side joint W1. An action of pressing the heater forward is effected on the basis of an axial dimension L1 between the joints W2 and W1 shorter than an axial dimension between the joints W2 and W3 and is, therefore, mitigated.

A glow plug including a substantially cylindrical housing extending in an axial direction; a rod-shaped heater unit having a front end protruding from the front end of the housing and movable in the axial direction; a connecting member connecting the heater unit to the housing within the housing and allowing the heater unit to move in the axial direction; and a pressure sensor that detects pressure received by the heater unit. The heater unit has a large-diameter portion at the rear end thereof and a small-diameter portion frontward of the large-diameter portion and having a diameter smaller than the diameter of the large-diameter portion. The connecting member connects the small-diameter portion of the heater unit to the housing within the housing.

A combustion pressure sensor (1) includes a housing (2) having an axial hole (23), a flexible member (8) fixed at one end to the housing (2) and being displaceable along the direction of axis (CL1), a pressure transmission body (3) whose outer circumferential surface is fixed to the other end of the flexible member (8), and a sensor element (42) fixed to the housing (2) and outputting a signal on the basis of a pressure applied thereto from the pressure transmission body (3). The housing (2) includes a main body portion (21) having a screw portion (24), and a cap member (22) having a press contact portion (26) which is pressed against the internal combustion engine when the screw portion (24) is screwed into the mounting hole of an internal combustion engine. The one end of the flexible member (8) is fixed to the main body portion (21).

A spark plug cap for facilitating the fitting/detaching operation of a spark plug with a built-in pressure sensor, and a method of easily fitting the spark plug with a built-in pressure sensor are provided. The spark plug cap is provided with a cylindrical part of glass-containing PBT, a grommet provided with a cable passing groove, and an ignition coil unit provided with a high voltage terminal. The cylindrical part includes a first engagement part engageable with a spark plug fastening tool on one end, a second engagement part of a metal material engageable with a hexagonal part of the spark plug with a built-in pressure sensor on the other hand, and a groove-shaped clamp part on the outer side surface. By engaging the hexagonal part with the second engagement part to attach the cylindrical part to the spark plug, holding a sensor output cable by the clamp part, and fitting and fastening the spark plug fastening tool in the first engagement part, the spark plug is fitted into an internal combustion engine.

摘要:
A pressure sensor-incorporating spark plug including a groove 17e for accommodating an output cable 27 formed on a side surface of a hexagonal portion 17a. A U-shaped member is bent into a tubular shape to obtain a fixing member 31. After the fixing member 31 and the output cable 27 passing through the fixing member 31 are placed in the groove 17e, the fixing member 31 is crimped in the direction of the arrow shown in FIG. 5(a), so that the fixing member 31 is deformed to fit the wall surface of the groove 17e. Thus, the output cable 27 is nipped by the fixing member 31, and the fixing member 31 is held within the groove 17e of the hexagonal portion 17a. As a result, the output cable 27 is fixed to the hexagonal portion 17a.
