Abstract: An ignition coil for a motor vehicle, comprising: a magnetic core (12) having an elongated shape, a primary spool (20) supporting a low-voltage winding (22), and a secondary spool (16) supporting a high-voltage winding (18). The two spools are set coaxially with respect to the magnetic core. The coil includes a tubular shaped outer casing (24) carrying, at a first end, a low-voltage connector (28) and, at a second end, a high-voltage connector (30) which is designed to connect with a spark plug. A diode (42) is set at one end of the high-voltage spool (16) and has both a first rheophore (44), which is electrically connected to one end of the high-voltage winding (18), and a second rheophore (46), which is electrically connected to the high-voltage connector (30).

Abstract: Use of compounds modulating P2 purinoceptors, in particular antagonists such as Basilen Blue E-3G (Reactive Blue 2), for the prevention of the damages due to global cerebral ischemia and ischemia-reperfusion. Said compounds reduce the mortality in case of global cerebral ischemia as well as the neuronal damage of the hippocampus.

Abstract: An ignition coil for motor vehicles with a single output terminal comprises a body (16) carrying at one of its ends a flexible cap (18) provided with a seat (24) designed to receive an end (10) of a spark plug. The cap (18) comprises a high-voltage terminal (38, 40) electrically connected to the high-voltage winding of the coil and provided with a connection portion designed to receive a terminal (14) of the plug (10). A diode (26) is housed inside said cap (18) and is connected in series between two portions (38, 40) of said high-voltage terminal.

Abstract: An ignition coil for motor vehicles, comprising: a magnetic core (12) having a rectilinear axis; a secondary spool (16) supporting a high-voltage winding (18) and being set coaxially with respect to the magnetic core (12); a primary spool (20) supporting a low-voltage winding (22) and being set coaxially with respect to the secondary spool (16) and outside the latter; a tubular-shaped outer casing (24) which encloses the assembly comprising the magnetic core (12) and the spools (16, 20); and a low-voltage connector (28) including a connector body (30) made of plastic material and a plurality of metal contacts (32) fixed to the connector body (30). In the ignition coil, the connector body (30) is made of a single piece with the primary spool (20).

Abstract: An ignition system for internal combustion engines with spark ignition comprising an ignition coil, a spark plug connected to the secondary winding, an electric supply circuit associated with the primary winding of the coil, where the said circuit includes a semiconductor device controlled by an electronic control unit programmed to produce a charging cycle in the course of which the instantaneous current flowing in the primary winding gradually increases from a minimum value to a maximum value and then returns brusquely to the minimum value. The electronic control unit is programmed to produce a succession of charging cycles during one and the same engine cycle. Each of the said charging cycles is separated from the previous cycle by a time interval (W) of a duration that is either equal to or greater than the duration (DA) of a discharge cycle.
