. 9 Claims.
This invention relates to engine starters of the type wherein the drive pinion is automatically propelled to and from mesh with the engine ring gear. V
In general it has been found that the ideal construction for starters of this type comprises a driving head adapted to be secured to the shaft of the starter motor, an actuating member loosely mounted on the motor shaft or a sleeve slipped thereon and carried by the driving head, and a tubular extension on the pinion threaded fonto the actuating member.
By virtue of the threaded connection between the actuating member and the pinion sleeve or extension, relative rotation between these parts effects longitudinal motion of one with respect to the other, depending upon the direction of relative rotation. Hence, by transmitting torque from the drive head to the actuating member the desired translation of the pinion along the shaft is accomplished, such movement of the pinion being limited by a suitable stop upon attainment of full meshing relationship. t I
The parts thus far described and operatingjin the manner stated, accomplish the desired translation of the pinion along the shaft to and from mesh with the ring gear, but yieldability must be incorporated to cushion the application of the engine load on the starter motor and also to accommodate occasional collision .of the teeth on the starter pinion with those of the ring gear.
The means by which this necessary yieldability has been incorporated in starters in the past has taken many different forms.
In some instances the yieldable means has been intenpositioned between the pinion and the actuating member, but most generally and practically, it constituted the driving connection between the actuating member and the drive head which is fixed to the motor shaft i In the early type starters yieldability was obtained through the use of a coiled spring which combined torsional and endwise resiliency. Inasmuch as the torque had to be transmitted throu h the spring its crystallization and the consequent failure of the starter was a common occurrence; A vast improvement over the early type starter was obtained through substitution of a rubber collar as the yieldable driving connection between the actuating member and. the drive head, as
evidenced by Patent No. Re. 20,686, dated April The use of rubber as the yieldable driving connection not only eliminated the objection of failure due to crystallization of the spring, but it produced a much quieter starter.
However, with the increasing difiiculty of obtaining rubber, either natural or synthetic, further revision of starters of this type must be made, and it is therefore an object of this invention to provide an engine starter which retains all the desirable constructional characteristics of past startersbut utilizes an entirely new manner of obtaining the necessary yieldability which, though it incorporates the use of a spring and eliminates the need for rubber, is free from the objections inherent in the earlier use of springs.
In general this invention achieves this result through the use of a yieldable driving connection between the actuating member and the drive head formed conjointly by a compression spring which carries none of the driving torque and a novel torque transmitting cam connection arranged to reduce the load on the spring.
Another object of this invention resides in the provision of a novel yieldable driving connection for starters of the character described which is so designed that any desired gradient of resistance to endwise thrust imparted to the actuating member may be built into the starter.
Still another object of this invention is to provide means for insuring quietness in operation by yieldingly maintaining the cam surfaces on the actuating member and drive head engaged at all times.
With the above and other objects in view, which will appear as the description proceeds, this invention resides in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts substantially as hereinafter described and more particularly defined by the appended claims, it being understood that such changes in the precise embodiment of the hereindisclosed invention may be made as come within the scope of the claims. The accompanying drawings illustrate several complete examples of the physical embodiment of the invention constructed according to the best modes so far devised for the practical application of the principlesthereof, and in which:

Figure 3 is a perspective view of the drive head unit; 7 I I be balanced between them to obtain any desired gradient of resistance to end thrust;
Figure 8 is a perspective view oi the irivehead f unit of the starter construction shown in Figure.
Figure 9 is a perspective View of the actuating member construction employed in the starter shown in Figure '7. T f
Referring now more particularly to the accomp'anying drawings, in which like numerals indi cate like parts, the numeral 5' designates the ring gear of an engine to be started and with which the pinion 6 of the starter meshes during the starting cycle. I a
The pinion 6 has a rearwardly extending sleeve or tubular extension I internally threaded to fit the threads '8 of an actuating member 9. The actuating member comprises, a flange it having a forwardly directed tubular extension H on which the threads 8 are formed and a rearward ly directed cylindrical projection l2. This rearwardly directed cylindrical projection I2 is stepped to provide diametrically opposite narrow and wide po tions I3 and M.
One endof the wide portion, {4 terminates in an abrupt step parallel with the axis of the actuator, but at its opposite end an inclined cam surface !5 constitutes the step between the two portions 13: and, I4; This inclined cam surface it cooperates with a correspondingly inclined cam surface I! on a drive head indicated generally by the numeral l8.
The drive head [8 comprises a sleeve is te le-. scoped over the shaft 20, ofthe starter motor and a boss 2| fixed to the sleeve. screw connection locks the drive head to, the motor shaft. V
Carried, by the boss 2| and projecting radially therefrom is an annular flange 22. This, flange 22 is of the same diameter as the cylindrical extension l2 on the actuating member and projecting forwardly therefrom is a cylindrical ex tension 23 complementary inshape to the extension I2, that is, it is stepped and has. narrow and wide portions 24 and 25, respectively.
One junction between these portions is formed by the inclined cam surface I] and its opposite junction is in the form, of a, square shoulder or step 25. This shoulder 2.6, however, is angularly or circumferentially displaced from the shoulder l5 when the actuatingflmember is assembled with the drive head and the cam surfaces 16. and. l 7 are in engagement, as shown in Figure 5.
This clearance is provided to. insure unhindered functioning of the cam connection.
Interpose'd between the-flanges of the actuate ingfmember and drive: head is a compression spring 2! which yieldingly holds the actuating member longitudinally away fromthe drive head,
and, to limit the movement apart of these ele- V ments under influence of the spring, a retaining shell28 isapplicd ver the. flanges of, theact'iiat ing member and drive head. This'shell has-an inwardly directed flange 29 engaging behind the A suitable key and,
drive head isformed; as a. curve. and pertain a. decrea in ncrem nt. it fo low flange of the drive head and has a bead 30 rolled over the edge of the flange In on the actuating member.
Thus, it will be seen that rearward longitudinal displacement of the actuating member produced by the action of the screw and resulting either from collision of the pinion teeth with the teeth of the ring gear or the, picking up of the engine load when the pinion is in its forward limit of movement defined by a stop 3| on the front end of the sleeve [9 is resisted jointly by the compression spring 2'1 and the force of friction resulting from the cam connection.
In this manner it is possible to utilize a compression spring to. take the end thrust and substantially duplicate'the resiliency of a rubber collar. Tests having shown that it is impossible to obtain a spring capable of installation in the space available which of itself could duplicate the action of a rubber collar as employed in starters of the type, described in the aforesaid Fitz Gerald patent; but with the cam connection frictionally resisting end thrust the load on the spring is materially lessened. It is thus feasible to use a relatively light coilspring, especially as none of the driving torque is carried by the spring. The entire torque is transmitted by the cam connection.
This construction achieves all of the required yieldability in a starter as the torsional resiliency necessary to cushion the application of the engine load to the starter motor is obtaineclthrough the translation by the screw of torque loadfi-nto rearward endwise displacement of the actuating member, which, of course, is cushioned; I 3
When the engine starts the-actuating member isapt to be rotated with respect to the drive head to disengage the camsurface's and-engage the abrupt shoulders IE-"and 26. While this action would in nowise affect the operation of the starter, it would result in an objectionable clicking sound and might increase wear onthef cam surfaces due to the hammerblow resulting-from taking up the lostmotion when the starter again functioned. T
Hence, it is desirable to incorporate means'for holding the cam surfaces ,yield'ably inengage! ment. This is conveniently accomplished by means of the spring 21 merely by forming. pro.- jections 32- on the ends of the. spring and engaging the samein appropriate, recessesiin the drivethead and actuating: member. as. clearly showninFigure 6.
