Abstract

The invention relates to an ignition device for water-cooled or air-cooled internal-combustion engines, in which multiple ignition is possible with at least two spark plugs which are electrically connected in series, in that at least one of the spark plugs of a pair of spark plugs is arranged electrically insulated from the cylinder housing whilst the other spark plug of the pair of spark plugs is screwed into the cylinder head in a conventional manner. In order to avoid temperature stressing of the electrically insulated spark plug, it is proposed with the invention that the latter be arranged in the water-cooled or air-cooled area of the cylinder housing.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Zündanlage für wasser- oder luftgekühlte Brennkraftmaschinen, bei welcher mit wenigstens zwei elektrisch hintereinandergeschalteten Zündkerzen eine Mehrfachzündung möglich ist, indem wenigstens eine der Zündkerzen eines Zündkerzenpaares elektrisch isoliert gegenüber dem Zylindergehäuse angeordnet ist, während die andere Zündkerze des Zündkerzenpaares unmittelbar in den Zylinderkopf eingeschraubt ist.The invention relates to an ignition system for water- or air-cooled internal combustion engines, in which multiple ignition is possible with at least two spark plugs connected in series by at least one of the spark plugs of a pair of spark plugs being arranged in an electrically insulated manner from the cylinder housing, while the other spark plug of the pair of spark plugs is directly in the cylinder head is screwed in.

Eine derartige Zündanlage ist beispielsweise aus der CH-PS 99 121 bekannt. Bei einer solchen Zündanlage ist kostensparend mit einer einzigen Zündspule und einem einzigen Unterbrecher eine Mehrfachzündung möglich.Such an ignition system is known for example from CH-PS 99 121. With such an ignition system, multiple ignition is possible in a cost-saving manner with a single ignition coil and a single breaker.

Im Flugmotorenbau wird seit langem aus Sicherheitsgründen mit Hilfe zweier herkömmlicher Zündkerzen und zweier Zündsysteme praktiziert. Auch wird für hochwertige Personenkraftwagen gelegentlich eine Doppelzündung mit zwei Zündkerzen pro Zylinder und zwei Zündspulen mit dem dazugehörigen Zubehör angeboten. Diese Lösungen sind jedoch kostenaufwendig. Problematisch bei der Verwendung herkömmlicher Zündkerzen ist zudem die unterschiedliche Temperaturbelastung bei verschiedenen Motoren und unterschiedlicher Fahrweise.For safety reasons, aircraft engine construction has long been practiced using two conventional spark plugs and two ignition systems. A double ignition with two spark plugs per cylinder and two ignition coils with the associated accessories is also occasionally offered for high-quality passenger cars. However, these solutions are expensive. Another problem when using conventional spark plugs is the different temperature loads in different engines and different driving styles.

Die Mehrfachzündung bei Brennkraftmaschinen, insbesondere Motoren von Kraftfahrzeugen, erfährt neuerdings deswegen wieder zunehmendes Interesse, weil mit ihr aufgrund einer besseren Verbrennung des Kraftstoffes eine Verminderung des Schadstoffausstoßes erzielt werden kann.The multiple ignition in internal combustion engines, in particular engines of motor vehicles, has recently gained increasing interest because it can be used to reduce pollutant emissions due to better combustion of the fuel.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine Zündanlage der gattungsgemäßen Art unter Beibehaltung einer Doppel- oder Mehrfachzündung ohne den Aufwand zweier Zündsysteme zu schaffen, bei welcher die Probleme der unterschiedlichen Temperaturbelastung der Zündkerzen beseitigt oder zumindest erheblich verringert sind.The object of the present invention is to create an ignition system of the generic type while maintaining a double or multiple ignition without the expense of two ignition systems, in which the problems of different temperature loads on the spark plugs are eliminated or at least considerably reduced.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß im wesentlichen dadurch gelöst, daß die eine gegenüber dem Zylindergehäuse elektrisch isolierte Zündkerze im wasser- oder luftgekühlten Bereich des Zylindergehäuses angeordnet ist. Auf diese Weise kann diese Zündkerze unter Ausnutzung der ohnehin vorhandenen Kühlung auf annähernd konstanter Temperatur gehalten werden, und zwar unabhängig von der Art des Motors, der Motordrehzahl und auch der Fahrweise. Hierdurch ist eine Zündanlage geschaffen, welche die Vorteile der Doppel- oder Mehrfachzündung bei Brennkraftmaschinen mit sich bringt, ohne die Probleme der unterschiedlichen Temperaturbeanspruchung der Zündkerzen in Kauf nehmen zu müssen.This object is essentially achieved in that the spark plug, which is electrically insulated from the cylinder housing, is arranged in the water-cooled or air-cooled region of the cylinder housing. This way, this spark plug can be taken advantage of anyway Existing cooling can be kept at an almost constant temperature, regardless of the type of engine, engine speed and driving style. This creates an ignition system which brings the advantages of double or multiple ignition to internal combustion engines without having to put up with the problems of different temperature loads on the spark plugs.

Ein besonders günstiger Kühleffekt wird dann erzielt, wenn die eine elektrisch isolierte Zündkerze den wasser- oder luftdurchkühlten Raum des Zylindergehäuses durchquert. Auf diese Weise wird die elektrisch isolierte Zündkerze unmittelbar gekühlt.A particularly favorable cooling effect is achieved when the one electrically insulated spark plug crosses the water- or air-cooled space of the cylinder housing. In this way, the electrically insulated spark plug is immediately cooled.

Bei einer baulich besonders günstigen Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß die elektrisch isolierte Zündkerze in den äußeren Mantel des Zylindergehäuses eingeschraubt und gegen den inneren Mantel des Zylindergehäuses abgedichtet ist, während die Elektroden durch eine Öffnung im inneren Mantel in den Verbrennungsraum hineinragen.In a structurally particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention it is provided that the electrically insulated spark plug is screwed into the outer jacket of the cylinder housing and sealed against the inner jacket of the cylinder housing, while the electrodes protrude through an opening in the inner jacket into the combustion chamber.

Die elektrische Isolierung der Zündkerze kann gemäß einem weiteren Erfindungsmerkmal vorteilhafterweise dadurch erzielt werden, daß die Elektroden von hitzebeständigen Metalldrähten gebildet und in Bohrungen eines keramischen Isolierkörpers aufgenommen sind, welche den wasser- oder luftdurchspülten Raum des Zylindergehäuses durchquert.According to a further feature of the invention, the electrical insulation of the spark plug can advantageously be achieved in that the electrodes are formed from heat-resistant metal wires and are received in bores in a ceramic insulating body which crosses the water or air-flushed space of the cylinder housing.

Der Isolationskörper kann in dem den wasser- oder luftdurchspülten Raum durchquerenden Abschnitt ohne Beeinträchtigung seiner Kühlung dadurch geschützt sein, daß er in einem, zum Beispiel aus Edelstahl bestehenden Metallrohr aufgenommen ist.The insulating body can be protected in the section crossing the water or air-flushed space without impairing its cooling by being accommodated in a metal tube, for example made of stainless steel.

Diese Metallrohr kann vorteilhafterweise zur Montage der elektrisch isolierten Zündkerze dadurch dienen, daß es mittels Gewinde in den äußeren Mantel des Zylindergehäuses eingeschraubt ist. Hier kann das Gewinde einer üblichen Zündkerze verwendet werden.This metal tube can advantageously be used for mounting the electrically insulated spark plug in that it is screwed into the outer jacket of the cylinder housing by means of a thread. The thread of a conventional spark plug can be used here.

Um die erforderliche Abdichtung des Isolierkörpers gegen den wasser- oder luftdurchspülten Raum zu erzielen, kann dabei das Metallrohr vorzugsweise mit einer Stirnfläche dichtend gegen den inneren Mantel des Zylindergehäuses anliegen.In order to achieve the required sealing of the insulating body against the water or air-flushed space, the metal tube can preferably lie with a sealing face against the inner jacket of the cylinder housing.

Weitere Ziele, Merkmale, Vorteile und Anwendungsmöglichkeiten der vorliegenden Erfindung ergeben sich aus den nachfolgenden Beschreibungen eines Ausführungsbeispieles an Hand der Zeichnung. Dabei bilden alle beschriebenen und/oder bildlich dargestellten Merkmale für sich oder in beliebiger sinnvoller Kombination den Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung auch unabhängig von ihrer Zusammenfassung in den Ansprüchen oder deren Rückbeziehung.Further objectives, features, advantages and possible uses of the present invention result from the following descriptions of an exemplary embodiment with reference to the drawing.
