Abstract

A ignition coil device for an internal combustion engine includes: a tubular high tension terminal which is electrically connected to a secondary output terminal of an ignition coil and has a side face portion, and one end of which is open; a first member accommodated in the tubular portion of the high tension terminal and fixed in the side face portion; a coil-shaped electrically conductive spring member which is accommodated in the tubular portion of the high tension terminal, and one end portion of which is wound around the first member a plurality of times in contact therewith; a second member accommodated in the tubular portion of the high tension terminal and having a shaft portion around which another end portion of the electrically conductive spring member is wound a plurality of times in contact therewith and a contacting portion which is electrically connected to a conductor of an ignition cable in contact therewith; and a retaining portion for retaining the conductor in a state in which the conductor compresses the electrically conductive spring member.
