Kick-starter among each embodiment who introduces above can easily be piloted engine and feasible impact can not be delivered to recoil rope 3, and this is that accumulation spring 12 has produced damping and power cumulative function because pulling recoil rope 3 long distances are exerted all one's strength.In addition, by the pulling of short distance repeatedly recoil rope 3, rotatory force can be accumulated in the power accumulation spring 12.Therefore, the position that power is applied on the recoil rope 3 can be regulated, and therefore in conjunction with cushioning effect, helps with less surge start motor.
According to the present invention, can be when piloting engine, the damping and the power cumulative function that produce by the long distance of pulling recoil rope absorb impact.Can also be when piloting engine, by repeatedly short distance pulling recoil rope generation damping and power cumulative function absorb impact effectively.Therefore, the distance of recoil rope pulling and power are applied to the position of recoil rope and can regulate, thereby in conjunction with cushioning effect, can less impact easily pilot engine.
In addition,, between cheese and cam, ratch mechanism is set according to the present invention, when cheese when the engine start direction is rotated, ratch mechanism can with cam disengages; When cheese when opposite direction is rotated, ratch mechanism can with cam engagement, make cam and cheese rotate together.Such structure unlike the prior art, but do not require the rotating component of the independent rotation as spring case, do not require the one-way clutch mechanism that only allows rotating component to rotate between cheese and cam along a direction yet, the manufacture cost that can realize kick-starter descends and reduced in size and weight.
In one embodiment of the invention, the clutch mechanism that is arranged between drive pulley and the cam comprises the centrifugal clutching mechanism that is arranged on the drive pulley, which is provided with centrifugal ratchet.Therefore, when the engine start crankshaft rotating, by the drive pulley that is connected, motor is driving centrifugal ratchet rotation, and centrifugal force makes centrifugal ratchet and cam disengages, has prevented to start the rotation of pusher side to be delivered to cam and cheese side thus.
In addition, in one embodiment of the invention, the clutch mechanism that is arranged between drive pulley and the cam comprises overrunning clutch, and overrunning clutch comprises the ratchet that is arranged on the cam, can engage with the anastomosis part that forms on the drive pulley or break away from.Therefore, when pulling recoil rope makes cam when the engine start direction is rotated, rotate transmission and carry out reliably; When after the engine start and cam when rotating in opposite direction, the transmission of rotating between drive pulley and the cam obtains certain stopping, thereby has prevented to start the rotation of pusher side to be delivered to cam and rope sheave side.
In addition, in one embodiment of the invention, damping and power accumulation mechanism comprise helical spring, the one end is fixed on the cheese, the other end is fixed to cam, makes its cushioning ability set very highly, and allowing motor to have very high shock-absorbing function can start reposefully.The power accumulation capability also can be provided with very highly, can be accumulated to enough desired rotatory forces of piloting engine.
In addition, in one embodiment of the invention, the ratch mechanism that is arranged between cheese and the cam comprises the rachet of the excircle side partly that pivotally is supported in cheese and can handle the operation piece that rachet rotates, wherein on operation piece, be formed with operating stem, can by with the inner peripheral surface of the outer wall of housing on an opening slot forming engage the pivoted operation piece.Such structure, when cheese when the engine start direction is rotated or is rotated in opposite direction, allow the ratchet of rachet to engage reliably or break away from the connected member of cam, produce stable operation.
In addition, in one embodiment of the invention, ratch mechanism comprises the rachet on the side surface of the excircle part that is supported in cheese swingably, and the pressure that rachet is subjected to bias mechanism can contact and slip thereon with the inner peripheral surface of the outer wall of housing.Such structure allows connected member positive engagement or the disengaging of the ratchet of rachet with stable manner and cam, and this depends on the sense of rotation of cheese, and embodiment introduces as the front.
In addition, in one embodiment of the invention, ratch mechanism comprises the rachet on the side surface that pivotally is supported in cheese, and its end is provided with ratchet, can engage with the connected member that forms on the cam outer peripheral surface; And biasing spring, it has curved portion, two end portion supports are in rachet, the inner circumferential surface sliding contact of the outer wall of the curved portion of biasing spring maintenance simultaneously and housing, slip resistance between curved portion and the inner peripheral surface makes the biasing spring distortion, and the two ends of biasing spring make rachet be pivoted around pivot thus.This structure allows connected member positive engagement or the disengaging of the ratchet of rachet with stable manner and cam, and this depends on the sense of rotation of cheese, and embodiment introduces as the front.
