Abstract: Disclosed is a spark plug having a ground electrode in which a weld zone is formed a tip and electrode base. The weld zone has: a back region exposed at an opposite surface of the electrode base; a joint region at which the tip is joined; and a connection region connects the joint region and the back region without being exposed at side surfaces of the electrode base. In a cross section of the ground electrode taken through the side surfaces of the electrode base along a plane passing through the centers of the top and bottom surfaces of the tip, a value of a width of the top surface of the tip being divided by a width of the facing surface of the electrode base is greater than 0.3, and a maximum width of the connection region is larger than a width of the back region.

Abstract: A spark plug that allows a heat transfer member to be fixed to an insulator in a simple manner. The spark plug includes: a tubular insulator extending in an axial line direction from a front side to a rear side; and a tubular metal shell fixed to an outer circumference of the insulator and having an external thread formed on a part of an outer circumferential surface thereof, wherein the insulator has a groove formed on a portion, of an outer circumferential surface thereof, that overlaps the external thread of the metal shell in the axial line direction, a heat transfer member mounted in the groove is in contact with an inner circumferential surface of the metal shell, and a portion of the heat transfer member is disposed in the groove of the insulator.

Abstract: An electrode tip for a spark plug, wherein Pt is contained as a main component, 7% by mass or more of Rh is contained, and a total content of Pt and Rh is greater than or equal to 95% by mass. The electrode tip includes: a narrow portion having the same cross-sectional shape in a direction of an axis; and a wide portion which is adjacent to the narrow portion and has a cross-sectional area, in a radial direction, which is greater than the narrow portion.

Abstract: A spark plug including a center electrode that has a large-diameter portion having an outside diameter that is largest in the center electrode. The large-diameter portion is retained at a rear facing surface in an axial hole of an insulator. A metal shell has a diameter increased portion on a rear end side with respect to the center electrode, the diameter increased portion having an inside diameter that is increased toward the rear end side. The insulator has a first portion which is a portion of the insulator in a region from a rear end of the rear facing surface to a front end of the diameter increased portion. The first portion has a thickness that is the largest in the region, and is disposed at least on an outer periphery of the large-diameter portion.

Abstract: A spark plug comprises a ground electrode including a chip whose one end has a cylinder shape having a diameter A from 0.8 to 1.2 mm and whose main component is a noble metal, and an electrode base material. In the ground electrode, a portion of the other end of the chip is joined to the electrode base material through a fused portion. The spark plug also comprises a chip-and-base-material interface in which the chip and the electrode base material contact each other and which is surrounded by the fused portion. In a cross section passing through a center axis, a distance between an end point Pa7 located on the chip-and-base-material interface and an end point Pa5 located on an interface between the chip and the fused portion is equal to or greater than 0.7 times the diameter A.
