An angle .theta.a is limited as 60.degree..ltoreq..theta.a .ltoreq.150.degree. in which the angle .theta.a is taken when the first ground electrode forms against the second ground electrode with the center electrode as an axial center.

    摘要: A spark plug having a center electrode 2 formed from an electrode base material 2n, which is made of an Ni alloy containing an alloy component (e.g., Cr) capable of forming an oxide semiconductor having a resistivity of negative temperature coefficient. Thus, a corrosion suppression layer originating from the components of the electrode base material is formed on the surface of a tip end portion of the insulator 3, so that corrosion (channeling) of the surface of the tip end portion of the insulator 3 due to creeping spark discharge can be effectively suppressed. In addition, when the constituent metal of the electrode base material 2n has a coefficient of thermal conductivity of 17 to 30 W/m·K, the heat transfer performance of the electrode is enhanced, so that durability against electrode consumption can be greatly improved.

    摘要: In a sparkplug voltage probe device in use for an internal combustion engine, an insulator base is attached to the internal combustion engine, an upper surface of the insulator base having a plurality of grooves in which the sparkplug cables are placed. An insulator sheet is embedded in the insulator base. An electrode layer is provided on an upper surface of the insulator base along the grooves to form a static capacity between the electrode layer and the sparkplug cables when the voltage is applied across the spark plugs. On a lower surface of the insulator sheet an electrical shield layer is provided connected to the internal combustion engine by a ground wire. A lead wire electrically connects the electrode plate to a microcomputer so as to analyze the engine burning condition based on the static capacity between the electrode plate and the sparkplug cables.
