Abstract: A sheathed-element glow plug for an internal combustion engine is described. It includes a plug housing, a connection part for the electrical current that is situated on the plug housing as well as a sheathed-element heater, which is usually in the form of a tube including an embedded heating element. The connecting part and the heating element are electrically coupled by a terminal pin and a contact element. The terminal pin and the contact element are at least partially surrounded within the housing by an electrically insulating plastic sleeve.

Abstract: A sheathed-element glow plug, in particular for internal combustion engines, includes a housing, a glow plug situated on the housing and having a heating and regulating filament situated in the glow tube, current being applicable to this heating and regulating filament via a terminal stud situated in the housing. The control filament r the heating filament or the heating and control filament are optionally multiple-coil filaments.

Abstract: A sheathed-type glow plug is provided, for example, for starting a self-igniting combustion engine, including a heating pin engaging in a combustion chamber having an ignitable fuel-air mixture, which includes an electrically conductive ceramic, and which may be heated to an ignition temperature by being connected to a voltage source, the sheathed-type glow plug surrounding an integrated temperature sensor.
