Abstract:
A starter motor, the pinion, which is rotated by torque of an electric motor, is slid axially by the plunger of an electromagnetic switch and is pushed against the engine ring gear by a conical spring, which allows employment of a small electromagnetic switch. Further, in an electromagnetic switch in which the plunger confronted coaxially with the stationary iron core slidably supporting a rod with a movable contact is moved towards the stationary iron core by electromagnetic force, a conical spring is interposed between the plunger and the stationary iron core in such a manner that the spring is substantially coaxial with the plunger and the iron core, so that the playing of the rod is prevented.
Abstract:
An electric starting system for cranking an internal combustion engine that has a starter solenoid assembly having plurality of "O" rings mounted on the tapered groove of the plunger assembly. The arrangement is such that, when the coils are energized the strong magnetic force attracts the plunger to the iron rod and rotates the pinion in axial direction to engage it with the engine ring gear by the elastic force of the mesh spring. Due to the high speed of the plunger and the mass of the drive assembly and pinion, the mesh spring collapses and closes the contact prior to the smooth engagement of the pinion with the ring gear, resulting in engagement problem. Thus the present invention ensures safe engagement of pinion and ring gear and also prevents the water/dust entry inside the plunger or contact assembly, eliminating the need of an additional shroud.
Abstract:
A starter for starting an engine in a vehicle, which includes a motor and an output shaft that rotates by receiving torque from the motor. The starter also includes a pinion movable body that includes a pinion for transmitting the torque of the motor to a ring gear of the engine. The pinion movable body is provided on an outer circumference of the output shaft integrally with the pinion in a manner allowing movement along an axial direction. The solenoid assembly consist of two divisions, one for to pull up the drive in the solenoid and the other to activate the starter motor by energizing the electronic circuit.
