Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automation control technology, and in particular to a spark plug welding scar removal device. Background Technology

[0002] Spark plugs are a crucial component of a gasoline engine's ignition system. They introduce high-voltage electricity into the combustion chamber, causing it to jump across the electrode gap to generate a spark, thereby igniting the combustible mixture in the cylinder. In recent years, with the miniaturization of engines and the adoption of technologies such as direct injection and turbocharging, engine power output has been increasing, resulting in increasingly higher combustion pressure and temperature within the combustion chamber. As a key engine component that extends into the combustion chamber, spark plugs need to withstand extremely high temperatures and pressures. However, after production, spark plugs often have weld spatter residue on their surface, which must be removed before use.

[0003] However, existing weld spatter removal devices are inefficient and have poor removal effects. Utility Model Content
