Abstract:
A method for manufacturing the spark plug comprising bending a ground electrode that is joined to a metal shell, along a first die, the first die having an end portion to be pressed against an inner surface of the ground electrode, and a flat surface portion contiguous to the end portion via a curved portion bulging outward, the flat surface portion being formed to be orthogonal to an axial line and includes a first step of pressing the end portion of the first die against the ground electrode.

Claim (Index 3):
The method for manufacturing the spark plug according to  claim 2 , wherein\n the position at which the second die is first pressed against the ground electrode in the second step is a position that is closer, in the direction of the axial line, to the second end portion than a boundary between the curved portion and the flat surface portion.
