    摘要: Disclosed is an ignition apparatus for an internal combustion engine. The ignition apparatus includes a spark plug, an ignition coil and a controller. The spark plug has an auxiliary combustion chamber in which a discharge gap is arranged. The ignition coil is configured to apply a voltage to the spark plug. The controller is configured to perform a multiple-discharge mode in which discharge is generated at least twice, with a discharge pause period intervening therebetween, across the discharge gap within a period from a compression stroke to an expansion stroke of the internal combustion engine.

    摘要: A spark plug for an internal combustion engine includes a housing, an insulator, a center electrode, a ground electrode, and a plug cover. The housing has a cylindrical shape. The insulator is held on an inner side of the housing. The insulator has a cylindrical shape. The center electrode is held on an inner side of the insulator. The ground electrode forms a discharge gap with the center electrode. The plug cover, together with the housing, configures an auxiliary combustion chamber in which the discharge gap is arranged. The plug cover includes a spray hole that communicates between the inside and outside of the plug cover. The ground electrode is connected to a plurality of locations on an auxiliary-chamber inner wall surface that includes surfaces of the housing and the plug cover that are exposed to the auxiliary combustion chamber.

    摘要: A barrier discharge ignition apparatus has a tip end exposed to a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine and, when subjected to a high-frequency high-voltage AC burst, generates streamer discharges for igniting a fuel/air mixture in the combustion chamber. A central electrode of the apparatus, covered by a dielectric layer and coaxially enclosed in a ground electrode, extends into the combustion chamber to a greater distance than the ground electrode. An electrode portion close to the tip end of the inner periphery of the ground electrode protrudes towards the dielectric layer, for creating a localized high-density electric field. The streamer discharges thereby enter both the to combustion chamber and also a discharge chamber of the ignition apparatus.

    摘要: In an ignition device, a base section of a discharge chamber is formed by a part of a central dielectric body. A front section of a ground electrode and a front end section of the central dielectric body are projected toward a combustion chamber of a head cylinder of an internal combustion engine by a predetermined height which is measured from a top ceiling wall of the head cylinder. The predetermined height of the front end section of the central dielectric body projected into the inside of the head cylinder is the same or higher than the predetermined height of the front end section of the ground electrode projected into the inside of the head cylinder. The predetermined height of the front end section of the ground electrode is within a range of 3 mm to 25 mm.

    摘要: A spark plug includes: a cylindrical insulator; a center electrode, held on an inner circumferential side of the insulator, protruding from the insulator toward a tip end side; a cylindrical housing holding the insulator on an inner circumferential side; a ground electrode forming a discharge gap between the ground electrode and the center electrode on the inner circumferential side of the housing; and a plug cover provided in a tip end portion of the housing to cover a pre-combustion chamber in which the discharge gap is arranged. The plug cover is provided with an injection hole that communicates the pre-combustion chamber to the outside. The ground electrode includes a discharge-side end portion that faces the discharge gap and a joining-side end portion that is joined to the housing. The discharge-side end portion is arranged further toward a base end side in an axial direction than the joining-side end portion is.
