Abstract:
A spark plug for an internal combustion engine includes a housing, an insulator, a center electrode, a ground electrode, and an auxiliary chamber forming portion. The ground electrode faces the center electrode from an outer peripheral side and forms a discharge gap between the ground electrode and the center electrode. An auxiliary chamber is formed inside the auxiliary chamber forming portion. A distance in an axial direction between the discharge gap and a distal end of the auxiliary chamber is equal to or greater than a maximum wall thickness of the auxiliary chamber forming portion. The auxiliary chamber forming portion includes injection holes. The injection holes are formed in a state where openings on an outer side are located closer to a distal end than openings on the auxiliary chamber side. At least one of the injection holes is an injection hole in the axial direction formed along an axial direction of a plug. When viewed in the axial direction of the spark plug, a center of the axial injection hole is eccentric from a central axis of the spark plug toward the discharge gap.
