It is known for this purpose that the glow plug body consists of two separate components, which are coaxially arranged one inside the other and are fixed electrically isolated from each other, for example by glass fusion. The inner part serves as external pole of the heating element.

- the length of the glow tube 3 usually corresponds to only about a third to a half of the total length of the glow plug.
- connection-side end portion of the glow tube 3 is isolated from the réellepolzuleiter 5, on the combustion chamber side end region.
- the intermediate insulating O-ring 4 serves for this purpose.
- a contact tube 6 is pushed or pushed into this and contacted with the end portion of the glow tube 3 contacting, for example, by Aufreduzi für the contact tube 6 on the glow tube 3.
- the contact tube 6 is up to the end of the glow plug body or led out of this and the end against the Polzuleiter 5, for example by an insulating O-ring 7, isolated, which simultaneously forms the seal of the cavity between the contact tube 6 and mecanicpolzuleiter 5; this cavity is filled with insulating material 8, for example magnesium oxide in powder form.
- contact tube 6 allows the use of different wall thicknesses and different materials for the said components;
- a glow tube with a wall thickness of about 1 mm can be used, for example, Inconel 601 or 6025 HT is used as a material, while the contact tube has a wall thickness of 0.5 mm and consists of a material that is not as high temperature resistant as the material of the glow tube must be.
- the extended heating element according to FIG. 1 is part of the glow plug design according to FIG. 2 ,
- the glow plug body 12 is insulated from the heating element arranged.

- the Polzuleiter / inner pole is the connection side designed as a positive terminal.
- an insulating layer 19 is applied in regions in order to provide a defined non-isolated region for ionization measurement at the glow plug tip.
- the glow plugs can be produced economically on the devices known per se in series; the assembly is very simple and at the same time very low concentricity tolerances can be maintained.
- the contact tube 6 is plugged onto the glow tube 3 of the heating element 9 and the cavity between the contact tube 6 and inner pole 2 / Polzuleiter 5 filled with insulating material, such as MgO 8, and sealed with an O-ring.
- insulating material such as MgO 8

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Herstellung einer Stabglühkerze nach dem Gattungsbegriff des Patentanspruchs.The invention relates to a method for producing a rod glow plug according to the preamble of the claim.
Eine Stabglühkerze, die nach diesem Verfahren herzustellen ist, ist aus der
Bei mehrpoligen Glühkerzen, insbesondere bei solchen, bei denen über die Heizstaboberfläche eine Ionisationsmessung durchführbar ist, müssen die Heizstäbe isoliert zum Glühkerzenkörper eingebaut sein. Bekannt ist hierzu, dass der Glühkerzenkörper aus zwei getrennten Bauteilen besteht, die koaxial ineinander angeordnet und zum Beispiel durch Glaseinschmelzung elektrisch voneinander isoliert fixiert sind. Der innere Teil dient hierbei als Außenpol des Heizstabes.In the case of multi-pole glow plugs, in particular those in which an ionization measurement can be carried out via the heating element surface, the heating elements must be installed in an insulated manner relative to the glow plug body. It is known for this purpose that the glow plug body consists of two separate components, which are coaxially arranged one inside the other and are fixed electrically isolated from each other, for example by glass fusion. The inner part serves as external pole of the heating element.
Diese Ausführung ist jedoch technisch für kleinere Glühkerzen kaum realisierbar und das Herstellungsverfahren nicht mit den üblichen Herstellungsverfahren und -vorrichtungen durchführbar.However, this design is technically hardly feasible for smaller glow plugs and the manufacturing process can not be carried out with the usual manufacturing methods and devices.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es unter Umgehung der aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Nachteile ein Verfahren zur Herstellung einer Stabglühkerze nach dem Gattungsbegriff des Patentanspruchs zur Verfügung zu stellen, mit dem es möglich ist, kleinere Glühkerzen herzustellen und ein sicheres Kontaktieren, beispielsweise mittels Koaxialsteckers bei guter mechanischer Stabilität der Glühkerze und der Kontaktverbindungen, gewährleistet ist.The object of the invention is, bypassing the known from the prior art disadvantages to provide a method for producing a glow plug according to the preamble of the patent claim, with which it is possible to produce smaller glow plugs and secure contact, for example by means of coaxial plug with good mechanical stability of the glow plug and the contact connections is guaranteed.

Das Kontaktrohr 6 ist bis an das Ende des Glühkerzenkörpers bzw. aus diesem heraus geführt und endseitig gegen den Polzuleiter 5, beispielsweise durch einen isolierenden O-Ring 7, isoliert, der gleichzeitig die Abdichtung des Hohlraums zwischen Kontaktrohr 6 und Innenpolzuleiter 5 bildet; dieser Hohlraum ist mit Isolationsmaterial 8, beispielsweise Magnesiumoxid in Pulverform, verfüllt.About the terminal-side end portion of the
Die Kombination von Kontaktrohr 6 mit Glührohr 3 erlaubt die Verwendung unterschiedlicher Wandstärken und unterschiedliche Werkstoffe für die genannten Bauteile; so kann beispielsweise ein Glührohr mit einer Wandstärke von etwa 1 mm verwendet werden, wobei beispielsweise Inconel 601 bzw. 6025 HT als Material verwendet wird, während das Kontaktrohr eine Wandstärke von 0,5 mm aufweist und aus einem Werkstoff besteht, der nicht so hochtemperaturbeständig wie der Werkstoff des Glührohrs sein muss.The combination of
