Abstract

See full text

A plasma jet plug includes a rod-shaped central electrode, an insulator having an axial hole, a metal shell disposed around the insulator, an orifice electrode electrically connected to the metal shell and located at a distal end side of the insulator, and a gasket that contacts an outer surface of the insulator and an inner surface of the metal shell. The insulator includes a first member, a second member and an inorganic seal layer. The first member has the axial hole and includes a large-diameter portion and a small-diameter portion. The second member has a through hole into which the small-diameter portion is inserted. The second member has an outer surface that contacts the gasket. The inorganic seal layer seals a gap between the first member and the second member. In a section including the axis, the sum of seal lengths is greater than or equal to 3 mm.
