Abstract

An ignition coil includes a primary coil, a secondary coil, a center core, a side core, a core cover, a case, and an insulating resin. The core cover is formed in a form that covers an inner side face, one thickness direction end face, and an other thickness direction end face of the side core. Wall portions that divide a mass of the insulating resin into portions, or reduce an amount thereof, are provided in the core cover on an aperture portion side of the case, which is the one thickness direction end face side of the side core.

Claims (18)

1. An ignition coil, comprising:

a primary coil;

a secondary coil disposed concentrically on an outer periphery of the primary coil;

a center core disposed on an inner periphery of the primary coil;

a side core, disposed on an outer periphery of the secondary coil, that causes a magnetic flux of the center core to recur;

a core cover that covers an inner side face, one thickness direction end face, and an other thickness direction end face of the side core;

a case that houses the primary coil, the secondary coil, the center core, the side core, and the core cover; and

an insulating resin that fills a gap inside the case, wherein

wall portions are provided on an aperture portion side of the case in the core cover, the core cover being made of a material capable of peeling away from the insulating resin.

2. The ignition coil according to claim 1 , wherein the wall portions are provided along an outer periphery of the side core.

3. The ignition coil according to claim 1 , wherein the wall portions are formed in a hollow structure.

4. The ignition coil according to claim 2 , wherein the wall portions are formed in a hollow structure.

5. The ignition coil according to claim 1 , wherein the wall portions are formed in a solid structure.

6. The ignition coil according to claim 2 , wherein the wall portions are formed in a solid structure.

7. The ignition coil according to claim 1 , wherein surfaces of the wall portions are formed in a smooth form.

8. The ignition coil according to claim 2 , wherein surfaces of the wall portions are formed in a smooth form.

9. The ignition coil according to claim 1 , wherein curved portions of differing size are provided in opposing corner portions of the corner portions.

10. The ignition coil according to claim 2 , wherein curved portions of differing size are provided in opposing corner portions of the corner portions.
