摘要： A spark plug having a front end of an insulating member which projects 2 mm or more from a front end face of a metal shell and a volume of the insulating member which lies within a range from a front end of the insulating member to a position lying 1 mm towards a rear end side is 11 mm3 or smaller. When the positions PA, PB, PC and PD are as defined herein, a parallel displacement amount E by which the straight line BC is displaced parallel until it contacts PD is 0.75 mm or larger. In this manner, the occurrence of lateral spark and inside spark can be suppressed effectively.

摘要： A spark plug capable of preventing breakage of a ground electrode. The spark plug is comprised of a ground electrode having a base end portion fixed to a metal shell, a bend portion integrally formed with the base end portion and being bent and a front end portion integrally formed with the bend portion and forming a spark discharge gap “g” with a center electrode. The ground electrode is comprised of a core extending from the base end portion towards the front end portion through the bend portion; and an outer layer disposed outside the core and extending from the base end portion up to the front end portion through the bend portion. The core is made of Hastelloy C serving as a first metal, and the outer layer is made of Inconel 601 serving as a second metal. Hardness of Hastelloy C is higher than that of Inconel 601.

摘要： A spark plug in which the rising of a ground electrode is more reliably restrained. The spark plug includes a ground electrode having a core portion extending from a proximal end section toward a distal end section via a bent section, a heat transfer portion extending from the proximal end section toward the distal end section via the bent section, and an external layer located externally of the core portion and the heat transfer portion and extending from the proximal end section to the distal end section via the bent section. As viewed on a section of the ground electrode taken orthogonally to a direction along which the ground electrode extends, at least at an intermediate position of the bent section with respect to the direction, the center of the core portion is offset toward a center electrode from the center of the heat transfer portion.

摘要： A spark plug is such that a front end portion of an insulating member projects 2 mm or larger from a front end face of a metal shell and a volume of a portion of the insulating member which lies within a range from a front end of the insulating member to a position lying 1 mm towards a rear end side from the front end is 11 mm3 or smaller. When assuming that a corner portion where a front end face of the insulating member intersects a side surface of an axial hole is referred to as a position PA, a position on a center electrode where a straight-line distance from the position PA to the center electrode within the axial hole is referred to as a position PB, a position where the insulating member first contacts the metal shell from the front end face of the insulating element along a surface of the insulating element is referred to as a position PC, and a position on the insulating element where a straight line BC which connects the position PB with the position PC contacts the surface of the insulating member when the straight line BC is displaced parallel towards an outside of an axis is referred to as a position PD, a parallel displacement amount E by which the straight line BC is displaced parallel until it contacts the position PD is 0.75 mm or larger. According to the spark plug configured in this way, even though the spark plug is shaped small, the occurrence of lateral spark and inside spark can be suppressed effectively.
