Abstract:
A spark plug includes an insulator having a first end, the insulator having a center axis and a center electrode coupled to the insulator and having a center electrode tip extending beyond the first end of the insulator. The spark plug further includes a ground electrode having an end spaced from an end of the center electrode, the ground electrode having a first portion extending substantially parallel to the center axis and a second portion extending at an angle from the first portion and relative to the center axis. A ground electrode tip is disposed on the second portion of the ground electrode, wherein the ground electrode tip is spaced from the center electrode tip. A ring member is operatively connected to the center electrode proximate the center electrode tip.
Abstract:
An insulator for a spark plug comprises a first segment surrounding the terminal, a second segment extending from the first segment, and a third segment extending from the second segment. A gap is disposed between the third segment of the insulator and the outer shell. At least one coating having a least one layer is disposed on a surface of the third segment.
