Abstract

A precombustion chamber provided with an arrangement for thermally insulating a cylinder head of an internal combustion engine from a combustion gas in the precombustion chamber comprising: (a) a hollow ceramic body which provides a precombustion chamber and is disposed within the hollow space for the precombustion chamber; (b) a hollow fitting member disposed surrounding the hollow ceramic body within the hollow space for mitigating and absorbing the stress produced between the cylinder head and the hollow ceramic body; and (c) seal means for sealing a space between the hollow ceramic body and the fitting member to provide a closed space therebetween, wherein said hollow fitting member is tightly secured to the hollow ceramic body through the seal means.
