摘要:
In an ignition device for an internal combustion engine which is mounted in a cylinder head in a state where a spark plug and an ignition coil are integrated with each other, the plug side tube section is made of ceramics and internally accommodates a center electrode and the coil side tube section is made of ceramics, with one of a primary winding and a secondary winding being wound around the coil side tube section. The plug side tube section and the coil side tube section are constructed as separate bodies and then combined with each other. This shortens the overall lengths of both the tube sections, thus preventing the occurrence of cracks or bends at calcining and improving the dimension accuracy after the calcining.

In an ignition device for an internal combustion engine, comprising a spark plug made to carry out an electric discharge between an center electrode and an earth electrode and an ignition coil having a primary winding and a secondary winding for supplying a high voltage to the spark plug, notch portions are made in a ceramic spool on which one of the primary and secondary windings is wound and projecting portion are made in an insulating-resin-made holding member into which connector terminals are incorporated, with the projecting portions being engaged with the notch portions. The engagement of the projecting portions and the notch portions prevents the connector terminals from moving with respect to the ceramic spool in circumferential directions of the ceramic spool during terminal connection work. This solves the problems in that, in the case of the employment of a ceramic spool, because difficulty is encountered in insert-molding the connector terminals in the ceramic spool, the connector terminals can move with respect to the ceramic spool during terminal connection work for the connection of the winding to the connector terminals to cause poor terminal connection workability.

A ground electrode has a proximal portion fixed to one end of a metallic housing and a distal portion extending toward one end of a center electrode so that an acute angle is formed between a center electrode axis and an axis of the distal portion of the ground electrode. A columnar ground electrode tip is fixed to a ground electrode end surface. The ground electrode tip protrudes from the ground electrode end surface and extends toward the center electrode along an axis crossing with an axis passing the ground electrode end surface. An axis of the center electrode tip is in a cross or skew relationship with an axis of the ground electrode tip.

An integrated ignition apparatus has a coil section and a plug section. The coil section has a spring as a connection member internally. The spring electrically connects other inside terminal members of the plug section. When the coil section and the plug section are integrated, the spring is pressed, and resiliently deforms in the axial direction. Spring-back force of the spring maintains electrical connection steadily, and prevents disconnection of the spring and the terminal members due to vibration. This structure prevents failure in electric conduction between the coil section and the plug section.

In a high frequency plasma generation system, a magnetic resonance section is provided as a frequency multiplier section between a discharge circuit and a power booster circuit. The magnetic resonance section extracts from a fundamental wave of a predetermined frequency generated by a frequency generator higher harmonic components, which are multiplied waves of the predetermined frequency and as high as two or more integer times of the fundamental wave. A resonance frequency of the power booster circuit and a first resonance coil is set to be equal to the frequency of the multiplied wave and match to equal a resonance frequency of the discharge circuit and a second resonance coil of the magnetic resonance section when a discharge electrode and a ground electrode are in a predetermined pressure range.

A temperature sensor includes a temperature sensing section having a thermistor element 11 and connecting ends 121 and 122, an outside connection circuit having detecting resistors 211 to 213 and connecting ends 221 to 225, and a switching element 30 for obtaining a selective connection between the first ends 121 and 122 and the second ends 221 to 225. The switching element 30 is for example constructed by a connector 31 and a shunt wire 32. The second switching element 30 can, as an alternative, be constructed by a pair of connectors, which provide different mutual positions, one of which is selected to obtain a connection. As a second feature, a connector, which is separate from the thermistor element, is provided with adjusting resistors which are in series and in parallel connected to the thermistor element.

A thermistor type temperature sensor having a substrate made from an electrically insulating ceramic plate. A thin or thick film detecting resistor is printed on the substratum. A thick or thin film pull-up resistor may also be printed on the substratum, and trimming of the resistors is possible. The ratio of B-constant values for the detecting resistor and the pull-up resistor may be selected so that it is locate between 0.4 to 0.9 or 1.1 to 1.5. The detecting resistor may be constructed from thermistor sections of the same composition and the sections may be connected in parallel or in series. The thermistor sensor can be connected to the pipe through which a gas passes. When the sensor is connected to the pipe, the angle of the measuring plane may be adjusted, so that a precise measurement can be obtained.

A knocking detector for internal combustion engines includes an illumination detector for detecting the illumination intensity of combustion of the air-fuel mixture in the combustion chamber and a knocking discriminator for deciding whether or not a knocking has occurred on the basis of a signal produced from the illumination detector. The illumination detector is provided on the cylinder head of the internal combustion engine and is sensitive only to the light longer in wavelength than the near infrared rays.
