A prechamber spark plug. The prechamber spark plug includes a central electrode and a ground electrode which are arranged in a prechamber, and a housing having a lateral hole, the ground electrode being arranged in the lateral hole in such a way that there is a gap area and a fastening area between the ground electrode and the housing.

Prechamber spark plug having accurately adjustable electrode gap, and associated method

A spark plug having a housing, an insulator situated in the housing, a center electrode situated in the insulator and a ground electrode situated on the housing, the ground electrode and the center electrode being situated toward each other in such a way that the ground electrode and the center electrode form a spark gap, and the center electrode rest with a center electrode head on a seat developed on an inner side of the insulator, and the center electrode having an electrode base body and a core situated in the electrode base body, the core being made from a material that has a higher heat conductivity than the material of the electrode base body, the electrode base body having a diameter that is not greater than 1.7 mm.

Spark plugs having a center electrode

A spark plug, including a housing, an insulator situated in the housing, a center electrode situated in the insulator and a ground electrode situated on the housing, the ground electrode and the center electrode being situated relative to one another in such a way that the ground electrode and the center electrode form a spark gap, and the ground electrode including a core and a sheath surrounding the core, the core being made of a material which has a higher thermal conductivity than the material of the sheath, and a cross sectional area of the ground electrode being not greater than 2.76 mm, the sheath having a wall thickness c of not greater than 0.4 mm in a first region of the ground electrode.

Spark plug including a ground electrode having a small cross section

A spark plug for an internal combustion engine, having an insulator including an insulator shoulder designed for mounting a tensioning nut or a housing and having a first outer diameter, an insulator head which is situated farther from the combustion chamber and adjoins the insulator shoulder, and which has a second outer diameter which is smaller than the first outer diameter, and a continuous cavity, a composition including a first contact composition, a second contact composition, and a composition resistor situated between the first contact composition and the second contact composition, a connecting pin which contacts the first contact composition, a center electrode which contacts the second contact composition, and a ground electrode. The connecting pin, the composition, and the center electrode are situated in the cavity, and the composition resistor has a third outer diameter, and a ratio of the third outer diameter to the second outer diameter is between 0.35 and 0.7.
