Patent number: 10320159Abstract: By grounding a metal first housing, radiation noise generated from the coupling circuit is shielded. Further, by enclosing the first housing in a metal second housing in a manner such that the first housing and the second housing do not come into contact with each other, and grounding the second housing by connecting the second housing to an engine block, radiation noise generated by the capacitive component between the coupling circuit and the first housing is shielded by the second housing. As a result, the influence of this noise on peripheral devices of the high frequency discharge ignition device can be suppressed.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2017Date of Patent: June 11, 2019Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Yasuyuki Shimizu, Takaaki Tanaka, Akira Nakagawa

Patent number: 10193312Abstract: In order to transmit high frequency energy to a coupling circuit, if the high frequency energy is transmitted via a harness provided with a high-voltage cable, the loop in which the high frequency energy is conducted is long, and thus, noise occurring from the loop is increased. Thus, shielding is needed to be provided to the entire apparatus. The present invention has a structure in which: a high frequency energy supply circuit and a coupling circuit are connected by a connection member; and a housing having therein the high frequency energy supply circuit is integrated with a housing having therein the coupling circuit. Accordingly, the entire apparatus can be downsized and noise occurring from the loop can be reduced.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2016Date of Patent: January 29, 2019Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Yasuyuki Shimizu, Takaaki Tanaka, Yusuke Naruse
