  • Patent number: 9318878
    Abstract: In a section of a spark plug cut by a plane which passes through the center of gravity of the intermediate member and is in parallel with the facing direction between a center electrode and an extending portion of a ground electrode, a spark plug that satisfies the relational expression S1/(D1×H1)?0.005, where S1 is the total area of nuggets, H1 is the height of the end surface of a noble metal tip from the disposition surface of an electrode base metal, and D1 is the maximum width of the noble metal tip.

  • Patent number: 8841826
    Abstract: A spark plug includes a ceramic insulator, a center electrode, a metallic shell, and a ground electrode. The center electrode has a shoulder portion at a forward end portion, which tapers forward with respect to the axial direction. A noble metal tip is joined to the forward end portion of the center electrode through a fusion zone. A spark discharge gap is formed between the noble metal tip and the ground electrode. The shortest distance between the fusion zone and a forward end surface of the noble metal tip is 0.8-1.2 mm. The outside diameter of the fusion zone as measured at a forward end of the fusion zone is smaller than that as measured at a rear end of the fusion zone. An acute angle ?1 formed by a straight line L1 and a straight line L2 satisfies the relational expression ?1?72°.

  • Patent number: 8810116
    Abstract: A buried portion (32B) buried from a junction target surface of a ground electrode (27) is provided in a noble metal tip (32). In a section, perpendicular to a central axis CL2 of the ground electrode (27), a large width portion (32W) is formed in the buried portion (32B), and a region between the junction target surface and a largest width region of the large width portion (32W) is formed into a shape which gradually increases in width, or into a shape having a region of the relevant shape and a constant width region. A region from the large width portion (32W) to a point of intersection P1, P2 is covered with a base material of the ground electrode (27) and a melt portion (35), and a thickness t1 (mm) of the noble metal tip (32) and a buried amount t2 (mm) satisfy 0.25?t2/t1.
