Abstract: The internal combustion engine has an internal combustion engine main body and a substantially columnar ignition coil. A head part at one end of the ignition coil is provided with an electromagnetic wave element for outputting electromagnetic waves irradiated into a combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine main body, and a plurality of supporting components are provided for supporting the ignition coil when an attaching part at the other end of the ignition coil is attached to a spark plug, the supporting components supporting the ignition coil either at or near a nodal point in a characteristic vibration mode of vibration occurring in the ignition coil along with vibration of the internal combustion engine main body. The ignition coil is not supported on the side toward the head part relative to the support member nearest the head part.

Abstract: A small-size injector having a built-in ignition device which can surely inject fuel and ignite the fuel with low electric power by the ignition device with a simple configuration is provided. The injector comprises a fuel injecting device 2 provided with a fuel injecting port 20 configured to inject the fuel, an ignition device 3 configured to ignite the injected fuel, and a casing 10 inside housing therein the fuel injecting device 2 and the ignition device 3 together. The ignition device 3 is constituted of a plasma generator 3 which integrally comprises a booster 5 having a resonation structure capacity-coupled with an electromagnetic wave oscillator MW configured to oscillate an electromagnetic wave, and a discharger 6 configured to cause a discharge of a high voltage generated by the booster 5.
