  • Patent number: 10637213
    Abstract: A spark plug with a center electrode having a first body and a second body of a precious metal, which is connected to the first body, an earth electrode arranged in the radial direction roundabout the center electrode, and an annular ignition gap formed between the center electrode and the earth electrode. The second body is formed as an annular element with a central recess. The first body has a main body and a projection, which extends into the recess of the second body. The second body is positively held on the first body via an undercut formed in the region of the projection of the first body between the first body and the second body.

  • Publication number: 20170328266
    Abstract: An internal combustion engine, includes at least one cylinder, wherein the or each cylinder includes a main combustion chamber for burning fuel in the cylinder, wherein an assembly serving to supply and/or ignite fuel is installed on a cylinder head of each cylinder between gas exhaust valves of the cylinder in such a way that the assembly is inserted into a cut-out in the cylinder head of the cylinder and is sealed to said cut-out, wherein a segment of the assembly that is inserted into the cut-out in the cylinder head of the cylinder has an oval contour in the cross-section, and wherein a bounding surface of said segment of the assembly, which bounding surface lies in the sealing region, is contoured in such a way that said bounding surface is continuously convexly curved outward in the peripheral direction.
