Definitions

  • the invention relates to a spark plug with the features specified in the preamble of claim 1 and of a method with the features specified in the preamble of claim 4.
  • a spark plug which has a cylindrical center electrode made of copper with a jacket made of a highly heat-resistant nickel alloy. To increase the life of the center electrode is reinforced with a tip of a precious metal material.
  • the EP 1 517 418 A2 discloses alloys of more than 50% by weight of iridium with at least one further metal or metal oxide from the group consisting of platinum, rhodium, nickel, tungsten, palladium, ruthenium, rhenium, aluminum, aluminum oxide, yttrium and yttrium oxide.
  • the iridium alloy tip is butt welded to the forward end of the base center electrode.
  • connection zone By subjecting the connection zone to a laser beam which is passed around the electrode, an alloy is formed in the connection zone, which consists of components of the non-noble center electrode and the electrode tip of the iridium alloy.
  • the alloy zone is intended to mitigate thermal stresses resulting from the different thermal expansion coefficients of the iridium alloy and the copper.
  • the coefficient of thermal expansion is between about 6 x 10 -6 K -1 and 7 x 10 -6 K -1 for platinum alloys between 9 x 10 -6 K -1 and 11 x 10 -6 K -1 .
  • the coefficient of thermal expansion is 16 ⁇ 10 -6 K -1 , for nickel-based alloys between 10.5 ⁇ 10 -6 K -1 and 14.5 ⁇ 10 -6 K -1 .
  • the ground electrode of the known spark plug is formed as usual from a flat wire with a rectangular cross-section and consists of a highly heat-resistant nickel-based alloy. It is reinforced with a molding of a platinum alloy with more than 50 wt .-% platinum and with at least one metal from the group iridium, rhodium, nickel, tungsten, palladium, ruthenium and rhenium. As a molding reveals the EP 1 517 418 A2 a blank, which is welded with a laser on the base ground electrode. It is disadvantageous that the non-noble ground electrode has a substantially different shape and arrangement than the center electrode of the spark plug.
  • connection zone between the molded part formed from the platinum alloy and the base ground electrode, which projects beyond the molded part from the platinum alloy, is much worse to achieve with a laser beam than the connecting zone between the center electrode and its tip consisting of the iridium alloy.
  • an alloying zone covering the entire cross section of the platinum alloy molding, which is formed from the platinum alloy and the nickel-based alloy, is difficult or impossible to achieve.
  • this causes the bonding zone between the platinum alloy molding member and the ground electrode to be stressed by thermal stresses more than the bonding zone between the center electrode and its electrode tip formed from an iridium alloy.
  • cracking is observed in the junction zone between the ground electrode and the platinum alloy molding, which can lead to premature termination of the spark plug life, until the platinum alloy is removed.
  • EP 1 416 599 A2 to provide a 0.2 mm iridium alloy wafer with 40% by weight nickel between the base non-noble electrode and the precious metal alloy molding, which in this case is an iridium alloy or a platinum alloy.
  • This disc is first welded by resistance welding to the base ground electrode, which according to the disclosure of EP 1 416 599 A2 as well as the center electrode consists of Inconel 600. Thereafter, a molded article of the iridium or platinum alloy, which is cylindrical and at its one end has a larger diameter flange, welded to this flange by resistance welding on the already welded to the ground electrode disc made of iridium nickel. Thereafter, a laser beam is applied to the connection zone to improve the weld joint.
  • the iridium-40% nickel iridium washer provided between the non-noble ground electrode and the iridium or platinum alloy mold achieves thermal stresses in the junction zone between the Inconel 600 and the IrNi40 disk, as well as the thermal stresses between the IrNi40 and the molding of the nobler iridium or platinum alloy are lower than the thermal stresses between Inconel 600 and the iridium or platinum alloy molding without inserting the IrNi40 disk.
  • IrNi40 has a linear thermal expansion coefficient that is between that of the ground electrode and that of the iridium or platinum alloy molding.
  • the EP 1 376 791 A1 discloses between the non-noble ground electrode and the noble molding, with which the ground electrode is to be equipped, an intermediate piece - in particular of a noble metal alloy - provide, the linear expansion coefficient of which neither matches the ground electrode with that of the noble molding, but intervenes.
  • a spark plug with the features specified in the preamble of claim 1 discloses the JP 2005-203110 A , Thereafter, it is known, a prefabricated rivet-shaped Composite part, which consists of a precious metal molding and an intermediate piece, which consists of the same base metal material as the ground electrode to weld butt to the ground electrode.
  • the ground electrode is provided with a blind hole, in which a precious metal molded part is inserted and welded to the ground electrode.
  • EP1341282 discloses the preamble of claims 1 and 4.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a way how the life of a generic spark plug can be extended.
  • nickel-based alloys particularly, z. Inconel materials, in particular Inconel 600.
  • Other well-suited alloys are nickel-based alloys containing 1.5 to 2.5% by weight of silicon, 1.5 to 3% by weight of aluminum, up to 0.5% by weight of manganese and 0.05 to 0.2 wt .-% of titanium in combination with 0.1 to 0.3 wt .-% zirconium and the remainder of nickel, wherein the zirconium may be wholly or partially replaced by the double mass hafnium
  • Another suitable nickel-base alloy contains 1.5 to 2.5% by weight of silicon, 1.5 to 3% by weight of aluminum, up to 0.5% by weight of manganese and 0.005 to 0.2% by weight. Yttrium in combination with 0.05 to 0.3 wt .-% lanthanum and the balance nickel.
  • platinum, iridium and their base alloys are particularly suitable platinum, iridium and their base alloys.
  • platinum-based alloys are mainly iridium, rhodium, ruthenium, palladium, tungsten, nickel and osmium as alloying components into consideration.
  • iridium-based alloys are mainly platinum, rhodium, palladium, rhenium and chromium as alloying components into consideration.
  • Particularly suitable are iridium-rhodium alloys, in particular iridium with 10 wt .-% rhodium.
  • the noble metal materials for the molding may contain small amounts of oxides of one or more of the elements zirconium, yttrium, hafnium, cerium, titanium, magnesium, barium and lanthanum, taken together preferably 0.05 to 1 wt .-%.
  • the intermediate piece or a composite part formed from the non-precious intermediate piece and the noble molded part can be connected to the ground electrode in different ways. One possibility is to provide a continuous hole in the base ground electrode and to insert the composite part formed from the shaped part and the intermediate piece into the through hole in such a way that the intermediate piece can be welded thereto at the side facing away from the center electrode of the ground electrode.
  • the precious metal-containing molded part should terminate flush with the center electrode facing surface of the ground electrode.
  • claim 4 is a method for reinforcing a ground electrode for a spark plug having the features of claim 1.
  • the noble metal-containing molded part, with which the ground electrode is to be reinforced welded to an intermediate piece of a material whose thermal expansion coefficient does not deviate from the thermal expansion coefficient of the base ground electrode.
  • the composite part formed from the molded part and the intermediate piece is then inserted into the through hole of the ground electrode so that the molded part is flush with the surface of the ground electrode facing the center electrode, and is welded to the base ground electrode.
  • the welded connection takes place on the center electrode opposite side of the ground electrode, and preferably by laser welding.
  • the ground electrode usually consists of a profile wire with a rectangular profile, from which a straight section is separated and welded to the body of the spark plug. Only then is the ground electrode bent towards the center electrode.
  • the composite part, with which the ground electrode is to be reinforced, is preferably welded to the ground electrode as long as the ground electrode is not yet bent towards the center electrode, but is still straight. This considerably facilitates the welding of the composite part to the ground electrode.
  • the molded part and the intermediate piece are first provisionally connected to each other and then welded by means of a laser.
  • Preliminary bonding can be accomplished by butting them together by electrical resistance welding.
  • Another possibility is to butt the molded part and the intermediate piece by cold welding, for. B. by friction welding or by compression with simultaneous increase in diameter by upsetting.

  • the molded part and the intermediate piece can be cut off from a wire-shaped semifinished product and then joined together. But it is also possible to provisionally connect two wire-shaped semi-finished products at their ends first and then cut them from the respective semifinished product and to weld additionally with a laser. Finally, it is possible, a cut off from the semi-finished, consisting mainly of precious metal molding provisionally with the end of a base wire-shaped semifinished product to connect and only then to separate the composite part of non-precious semi-finished product. The latter approach is preferred.
