Abstract:
Laser spark plug for an internal combustion engine has at least one laser unit for guiding, shaping and/or generating laser radiation, further including a combustion chamber window, and a housing which has, on the opposite side of the combustion chamber window from the laser unit, an aperture for the passage of the laser radiation guided, shaped and/or generated by the laser unit into a combustion chamber, the length of the aperture being 4 mm or more.
Abstract:
An ignition laser, includes a laser-active solid-state body, a housing and a combustion chamber window, the housing having an inner sleeve and an outer sleeve. An insert is provided between the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve, the insert and the combustion chamber window being joined sealingly and integrally.
Abstract:
A laser ignition plug includes an antechamber into which the laser ignition plug is configured to irradiate laser radiation. The antechamber defines at least two overflow ducts that realize a fluid connection between the antechamber and a spatial region surrounding the antechamber. The at least two overflow ducts, with regard to one or more of (i) the radial spacing thereof from a longitudinal axis of the antechamber, (ii) the axial spacing thereof from an end region, which faces toward the combustion chamber, of the antechamber, and (iii) the alignment and/or geometry thereof, are arranged asymmetrically with respect to the longitudinal axis of the antechamber.
Abstract:
A laser ignition device for an internal combustion engine, encompassing an ignition laser having a combustion chamber window, such that until startup of the laser ignition device, the combustion chamber window is equipped with a protective layer.
Abstract:
An ignition laser for an internal combustion engine is provided, wherein the combustion chamber window is connected to a housing of the ignition laser in a gas-, pressure-, and temperature-resistant manner.
Abstract:
A laser spark plug, e.g., for an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle or a heavy-duty gas engine, has an antechamber for receiving an ignitable medium and a combustion chamber window which separates the antechamber from a part of the laser spark plug facing away from the combustion chamber. At least one flow-guiding element is provided in the antechamber and is situated in such a way that it deflects a fluid flow, which occurs in the antechamber and moves toward the combustion chamber window, into a radially inner direction.
Abstract:
A socket wrench is described for installing a laser ignition system in an internal combustion engine, the socket wrench including a drive section and an output section that are situated axially one after another. The output section has a longitudinal recess.
Abstract:
A laser spark plug, in particular for an internal combustion engine, having an arrangement or structure for coupling, especially focusing, laser radiation in or on an ignition point, including an arrangement or structure for influencing a fluid flow disposed in an end region of the laser spark plug on the side of the combustion chamber, which constitute an essentially sleeve-shaped extension of the laser spark plug in the direction of the combustion chamber, in which the arrangement or structure for influencing the fluid flow is configured to influence the fluid flow in the region of the ignition point.
Abstract:
A laser device of a so-called laser ignition is provided, in which the heat dissipation is improved between a combustion chamber window and a housing, and the cooling or temperature of the combustion chamber window is able to be adjusted within broad limits by simple modifications.
