[0002] During the after-sales service process of natural gas engines (such as adjusting valve clearance), the ignition coil needs to be disassembled and assembled multiple times. The failure rate of loose connection of the plug caused by the falling off of the ignition coil plug buckle accounts for a high proportion in after-sales. The existing ignition coil plug is designed as EWCAP 120-S-004-1-A02, with a T-shaped buckle design and an average pull-off force of 153.2 N.

[0003] The defects of the existing technology are as follows:

[0004] As Figure 5 、 6 、shown in Figure 7, due to the narrow width of the reinforcing rib on the T-shaped buckle structure of the existing technology being 0.8 mm, the strength of increasing the pressure-bearing surface against deformation is limited. Therefore, during the warranty period of the ignition coil, with aging and multiple disassembly and assembly, there will still be obvious deformation at the upper end of the pressure-bearing surface until it falls off.
