Abstract

L'invention concerne une bougie de préchauffage en céramique et son procédé de production. Cette bougie de préchauffage, comprend un organe de chauffage en céramique (6) présentant un élément de chauffage maintenu par une céramique isolante et un conducteur côté négatif de l'élément de chauffage, exposé à l'extérieur à partir par rapport au côté de l'organe de chauffage, et relié électriquement à un tube extérieur métallique (8), ainsi qu'un conducteur côté positif (10) sortant de la face terminale de l'organe de chauffage sur le côté séparé de l'élément de chauffage vers l'extérieur et relié à un équipement d'extraction d'électrode (12). Le procédé de production de cette bougie comprend les étapes suivantes : raccordement de l'organe de chauffage en céramique à proximité d'une partie terminale du tube extérieur métallique pour positionner la partie de raccordement entre le conducteur et l'équipement d'extraction d'électrode dans le tube extérieur métallique ; remplissage d'un espace situé dans le tube extérieur métallique avec une poudre isolante (14) résistant à la chaleur ; accroissement de la densité de ce dernier par emboutissage ; fixation de l'équipement d'extraction d'électrode sur le tube extérieur métallique ; et fixation de la partie emboutie du tube extérieur métallique au niveau de l'orifice intérieur (4) d'un boîtier. La structure de retenue pour le conducteur et l'équipement d'extraction d'électrode peut être simplifié, et un couple de serrage appliqué à une borne de raccord externe (18) peut être reçu par la partie de fixation du tube métallique extérieur sur le boîtier (2).
