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 is 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 cylindrical core;
- a primary coil and a secondary coil wound around an outer periphery of the core;
- a primary spool around which the primary coil is wound and a secondary spool around which the secondary coil is wound;
- and
- a resin insulator filled between the core and inner one of the primary spool and the secondary spool,
- wherein a material having a thermal expansion coefficient lower than that of an epoxy resin comprising the resin insulator is disposed at least in the vicinity of and almost all around the outer periphery of the core,
- wherein said low thermal expansion coefficient material is disposed radially inside the inner one of the primary spool and the secondary spool.
