10 Claims. (Ci. 74-7) This invention relates to starter drives for inconnecting the driven clutch element to the pinternal combustion engines of the type which auion; and tomatically connects the starting motor to an Fig. 10 is an enlarged detail in perspective of engine to be driven, and disconnects the motor the driving clutch element showing details of the when the engine starts. latching device. 5 It is an object of the present invention to pro- Referring first to Fig. 1 of the drawings there is vide a novel starter drive which is eflicient and illustrated a power shaft I, which may be the reliable in operation and accurate and positive extended armature shaft of a starting motor, not in its control of the starting connection. shown.

Since 45 late? m P poslplopi as clearly shown in Fig. 3 the longitudinal motion 6 1s a slmllar 1 smwmg the of the driving clutch element 1 is not so limited,
parts in the position assumed in case a tooth of it will be a pparent that the clutch elements Will 2 1 2321 25 igg i z g gg g igfig q the be forced into driving relation and the clutch g 7 is a detail in perspective of the driving thus closed to form an operative connection from dutch element I the screw shaft to the engine gear at this time. Fig. 8 is a detail in perspective of th driven Means are provided for normally maintaining the clutch element; driving parts in disengaged or idle position in the Fig. 9 is a detail in perspective of the barrel form of a light compression spring l8 arranged 55 between the stop nut l1 and the driven clutch element 8.
According to the present invention, means are provided for preventing the return movement of the clutch element 8 to idle position until a successful start of the engine has been secured as evidenced by the rapid rotation of the pinion 6 from the engine gear l6. As here shown this means is in the form of a latch I9 (Fig. 4) pivoted at 2| to a radial flange 22 of the driving clutch element 1, and adapted to engage a notch 23' on the screw shaft when in driving position, being urged into such engagement by suitable means such as a spring 24. Speed responsive means rotatable with the driven clutch element 8 and consequently with the pinion 6 for tripping said latch is provided in the form of an arcuate element 25 pivoted at 26 to the driven clutch element 8 having a long arm 21 arranged to be moved outwardly by centrifugal force against the action of spring 28 and an offset portion 29 adapted to engage an arm 3| of the latch l9 and trip the latch when the arm 21 has been thrown outwardly by centrifugal force.
In the operation of this device, and starting with the parts in the idle positions as illustrated in Fig. 1, energization of the starting motor causes rapid rotation ,of the power shaft I which is transmitted through the spring 3 to the screw shaft 2. The driving clutch element 1, by reason of its inertia and the inertia of the driven clutch element 8, barrel 9 and pinion 6 which are lightly clutched thereto by virtue of the spring l3, does not immediately take up the rotation of the screw shaft and accordingly is translated with said associated parts by virtue of its threaded engagement therewith into driving position as illustrated in Fig. 3. Such translatory motion is limited by the engagement of the driven clutch element 8 on the stop nut l1 whereby the clutch elements 1 and 8 are forced together and clamped to the screw shaft 2, thus forming a driving connection from the screw shaft to the pinion 6 whereby the pinion is rotated to crank the engine.
At this time the latch l9 engages in the notch 23 of the screw shaft 2 and positively prevents the backward motion of the driving clutch element 1. If the load on the starting motor is temporarily relieved as by the engine going over its compression points or by an initial weak explosion in an engine cylinder, the pinion 6 and driven clutch member 8 are accelerated and may attempt to overrun the screw shaft 2: In such case, the clutch elements 1, 8 back off from the stop nut l1 sufliciently to relieve the clutching engagement between said elements, suflicient play being allowed between the latch I9 and the notch 23 to permit such slight retrograde movement. Thereafter the driven clutch member 8 and its associated parts are permitted to overrun the driving clutch element 1 until the driving force of the engine gear is dissipated, whereupon the starting motor picks up the load and continues the cranking operation. When a successful start is secured, however, the pinion 6 is accelerated by the rotation of the engine gear sufllciently to cause the centrifugal tripping element 25 to move into operative position to engage the.
latch l9 as shown in Fig. and trip the same whereupon the driving. clutch element I is permitted to be carried with the driven clutch element 8 and the parts thus returned to their idle positions.
In case a tooth of the driving pinion engages a tooth of the engine gear during the meshing operation, as illustrated in Fig. 6, the 'splined connection ll, l2 between the driven clutch element 8 and the barrel 9 permits said clutch elementto continue its longitudinal motion, compressing the spring l3 and thereby increasing the driving effect of the clutch elements. If this driving effect due to the pressure of the spring I3 is not sufficient to'index the pinion into proper driving relation, the driven clutch element advances into engagement with the stop nut l1 whereupon the clutch elements are positively forced together,.locking the pinion'to the screw shaft to insure the indexing action. As soon as the pinion has been indexed, the spring l3 expands and snaps the pinion into meshing engagement with the engine gear.
It will be readily appreciated that the location of the latch 19 between the power shaft l and the overrunning connection I, 8 prevents the transmission of driving stresses from the engine gear back through said'latch when the engine starts, and permits the latch to function without undue friction. The arrangement of the centrifugal tripping element on the driven clutch element in position where, during its rotation, 'it will strike and trip the latch when moved into operative position by centrifugal force, is also conducive to a high degree of accuracy in regulating the releasing operation. It will be understood that the regulation of the speed at which tripping takes place may be accomplished by the use of a spring 28 of suitable tension. If an adjustment of such speed is desired while the drive is assembled, this may readily be secured in a suitable manner such as by selecting a spring 28 of suflicient stiffness to retain the centrifugal element 25 at higher than the desired speeds, and then stretching said spring by small amounts by inserting a tool such as a screw driver through the openings l2 in the barrel 9 between the convolutions of the spring and twisting the same to slightly space one or more of said convolutions.
