Abstract
A stick-type ignition coil have a central core, a cylindrical member, primary spool, primary coil, secondary spool, secondary coil, outer core and a resin insulator. The two longitudinal end corners and faces of the core are covered by respective buffer members. The inner circumferential corners of the outer core supported by ring members. Some of the members disposed radially inside and other members disposed radially outside of the inside members are held slidably to each other in the ignition coil. The spools are made of resin containing a rubber in excess of 5 weight percent and reinforcing materials. The resin insulator contains a flexible material.
Claims7
An ignition coil for an engine comprising:
- a central core assembly including a rod-shaped core, the central core assembly having first and second longitudinal ends defining respective longitudinal end corners of the central core assembly;
- a primary spool and a secondary spool arranged around the outer circumference of the central core assembly;
- a primary coil wound on the primary spool and a secondary coil wound on the secondary spool;
- and
- an insulating material filled around the core, wherein at least one of the two longitudinal end corners of the central core assembly is surrounded by a space that is free of said insulating material.
An ignition coil for an engine comprising:
- a rod-shaped central core;
- magnets disposed on both longitudinal end faces of the central core;
- a spool disposed radially outside the central core;
- a coil wound around the spool;
- and
- a cylindrical buffer member made of elastic material and disposed between the central core and the spool, the buffer member covering circumferential faces of the central core and the magnets, the buffer member longitudinally extending short of a distal end corner of at least one of the magnets thereby leaving a space around said corner such that the corner is maintained free from contact with other members disposed to cover the corner.
