Patent number: 9343211Abstract: An ignition coil for an internal combustion engine is provided with a coil section that includes a primary coil and a secondary coil, and a connector case section. The primary coil is formed by winding a primary electric wire about the outer periphery of a primary spool made of a resin. The connector case section is provided with terminals each formed of a conductor and arranged from a fitting hole of the connector case section to a connector portion. In each terminal, an insertion portion arranged in the fitting hole is formed with an insertion slit in a fitting direction in which the coil section is fitted to the connector case section. Each winding end portion is drawn out substantially along a winding direction of the primary electric wire and inserted into the insertion slit in the fitting direction.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 2012Date of Patent: May 17, 2016Assignee: DENSO CORPORATIONInventors: Yuhki Yamauchi, Shouichi Takeyama

Patent number: 7222616Abstract: A stick ignition coil apparatus for an ignition plug includes a primary coil arrangement, a secondary coil arrangement, a center core, a coil case, a high voltage terminal, a spring case and dielectric resin. The primary coil arrangement is located radially outward of the secondary coil arrangement, which is located radially outward of the center core. The coil case is located radially outward of the primary coil arrangement. The high voltage terminal is located at a distal end of the secondary coil arrangement. The spring case holds a spring. The dielectric resin is filled in a space defined radially inward of the coil case. An open end of the high voltage terminal is connected to an annular corner portion of a distal projecting portion of a secondary spool of the secondary coil.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2005Date of Patent: May 29, 2007Assignee: Denso CorporationInventors: Shouichi Takeyama, Masahiko Aoyama, Kazuhide Kawai

Patent number: 7145426Abstract: An ignition coil for an internal combustion engine has a first housing, a second housing, a holder, an insulating resin and a crack extension restrictor. The first housing encloses a center core, a primary coil and a secondary coil. The second housing has an install portion and a cylinder-shaped fitting portion fitted to a top cylindrical portion of the first housing. The holder is laid over top ends of the primary and secondary coils. The insulating resin is charged in an annular cavity defined at least by uppermost portions of the primary and secondary coils, the fitting portion and the holder and in contact with the fitting portion. The crack extension restrictor is formed by a part of the fitting portion and a part of the holder and disposed above the fitting faces of the fitting portion and the top end portion.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2005Date of Patent: December 5, 2006Assignee: Denso CorporationInventors: Kazuhide Kawai, Shouichi Takeyama, Masahiko Aoyama

Patent number: 6977572Abstract: A stick-shaped ignition coil includes a center core, a primary coil, a secondary coil, and a body case that are substantially coaxially arranged relative to each other. The ignition coil further includes an igniter, a head case, a holder, and an electrically insulative resin. The head case accommodates the igniter. The head case is provided to an upper end portion of the body case. The holder is arranged between the igniter and upper ends of all the center core, the primary coil, and the secondary coil. The electrically insulative resin is filled in a first space, which is formed among the center core, the primary coil, the secondary coil, the body case, and the holder. The holder has at least one resin flow hole, through which epoxy resin is supplied into the first space, and at least one vent hole, through which air in the first space is vented to an outside.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2005Date of Patent: December 20, 2005Assignee: Denso CorporationInventors: Kazuhide Kawai, Shouichi Takeyama, Masahiko Aoyama
