A recoil starter capable of reducing a peak load at the time of an engine starting operation, and lessening shocks given to the hand and arm. The recoil starter is formed of a starter case provided so as to extend around an axis of a crank shaft, a starter shaft, a one-way clutch mechanism formed between one end of the starter shaft and an engine, a reel mounted on the starter shaft so that the reel can be turned freely, a rope wound in a groove of the reel, a spiral spring fixed at both end portions thereof to the starter case and reel and urged in the direction in which the rope is taken up, and a spiral spring fixed at both end portions to the reel and starter shaft and adapted to transmit with an elastic action a rotational force, which occurs when the rope is drawn out, of the reel to the starter shaft. The peak load at the engine starting time is absorbed in the spiral spring adapted to transmit with an elastic action the rotational force of the reel to the starter shaft.

The invention is characterized in a rotary cutter for a mower including a cord (7) for mowing grass by being rotated, a reel (1) for containing the cord and reeling out the cord intermittently while being rotated, a cover (2) covering a case containing the reel and a plunger (4) projected downward from the case and movable in an axial direction by being pressed for intermittently rotating the reel, wherein a ratchet (5) held at a constant position by urging means is moved outward to open against the direction of the urging means by a centrifugal force produced by rotating the rotary cutter at a high speed and so engaged with the plunger to thereby prevent the pressing member from moving in the axial direction.

A lever device in which a band (12) disposed on one side of an operation handle shaft (1) and a mount stay (4) disposed on the other side of the handle shaft for supporting an operation lever (3) are clamped and fixed with each other through clamp bolts (16), and in which a drum (11c) of an operation mechanism for controlling wire (11) is mounted on a lower portion of the operation lever. In the lever device, a concave portion (17) is formed in an inner surface of either one of the band and stay contacting with a surface of the handle shaft, and a turn-stop member (18, 18A, 18B) having a protruding portion (19) capable of biting into the surface of the handle shaft is fitted in the concave portion whereby an operation lever turn-stop mechanism is constituted so that the operation lever can be effectively prevented from turning even if the stay is not so strongly tightened, and a lock lever (10) for holding the operation lever in an upward turned state is mounted on the operation lever so as to be operated up/down turnably around the drum, a front portion (10b) of the lock lever is urged to turn upward by means of a spring (27) so that the front portion of the lock lever engages with an engagement portion (23) formed in the stay when the operation lever is turned upward, and a finger placing portion (25) is formed at a rear portion of the lock lever so that the finger placing portion projects toward a side of the handle shaft when the lock lever engages with the engagement portion and so that the front portion of the lock lever is disengaged from the engagement portion of the stay when the finger placing portion is pressed against the spring force so that the lock lever is turned downward whereby an operation lever unlock mechanism is constituted so that the operation lock can be unlocked rapidly in case of emergency or the like.

A lever device in which a support member (2) is fixed on a handle (1) and an operation lever (4) is rotatably supported on the support member, the lever device comprising an operation lever supporting mechanism and an operation lever locking mechanism. In the operation lever supporting mechanism, a U-shaped shaft bearing groove (11) is integrally formed in the support member so as to constitute a shaft bearing portion between the support member and an outer surface of the handle and a rotary shaft portion (13) is integrally formed on the operation lever (4) so as to act as a center of rotation of the operation lever, the rotary shaft portion being received in the shaft bearing groove so that the operation lever is rotatably supported between the shaft bearing groove and the outer surface of the handle. In the operation lever locking mechanism, common receptacles (15, 21) are formed commonly in the operation lever (4) and a stopper lever (9, 9A) supported on the operation lever so as to receive therein a drum (3c) formed at one end of a control wire (3) so that the stopper lever is supported on the operation lever so as to be rotatable around the drum, whereby the operation lever (4) is locked in a pulled state through the engagement of the stopper lever (9, 9A) with an engagement portion (10) of the support member when the operation lever (4) is pulled. By this configuration, simplification in construction and reduction in cost can be achieved.

One aspect of the invention provides a recoil starter including: a reel support shaft; a rope reel that is rotatably mounted on the reel support shaft; a ratchet member that is swingably mounted on the rope reel; a ratchet guide that is rotatably mounted on the reel support shaft with friction resistance. The ratchet guide includes: a guide portion and a swinging-prevention portion. When the rope reel rotates in an engine starting direction, the guide portion pushes out the ratchet member to an outer diameter direction. When the ratchet member does not contact the guide portion, the swinging-prevention portion prevents the ratchet member from swinging to the outer diameter direction.
