 Starting device for an internal-combustion engine with start-up shock damping

Details

Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbH (Stuttgart, DE)

Attorney, Agent or Firm: Striker; Michael J.

The starting device for an internal combustion engine includes a housing, an electrical drive motor (10) with a drive shaft (16), a starting pinion (12) for engagement with a rim gear of the engine and an intermediate gear (11) making an operative connection between the drive shaft and the starting pinion. For damping or absorption of the shocks and preventing fractures arising from the compression stroke of the starting engine the starting pinion (12) is connected directly or indirectly nonrotatably with the gear shaft (24) of the intermediate gear (11) and the gear shaft (24) is coupled with a hollow wheel (21) via an elastic damping ring (34). The drive shaft (16) meshes with its outer toothing (19) in the internal toothing (20) of the hollow wheel. The hollow wheel (21) is received in a bearing (25) in the housing and the damping ring (34) is made of rubber or plastic, is inserted in the hollow wheel (21) and, surrounds the gear shaft (24 ). The external toothing (35) of the damping ring (34) engages in the internal toothing (20) of the hollow wheel (21) and the external toothing (33) of the gear shaft (24) intermeshes with the internal toothing (36) of the damping ring (34) so that torque is transmitted from the hollow wheel, when driven by the electric motor, to the gear shaft.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION I claim: 1.
In a starting device for an internal-combustion engine having a rim gear, said starting device comprising an electric drive motor (10) having a drive shaft (16) with a drive shaft end remote from the electric drive motor (10), a starting pinion (12) engageable with the rim gear (13) of the internal-combustion engine, a housing cover (18) and an intermediate gear (11) making an operative connection between the drive shaft (16) and the starting pinion (12), the intermediate gear (11) having a gear shaft (24), which is arranged eccentrically relative to the drive shaft (16) and on which the starting pinion (12) is mounted longitudinally movably so as to be engageable with said rim gear (13), and the intermediate gear (11) also having a hollow wheel (21) freely rotatably mounted on the gear shaft (24) by a sleeve (23) formed in one piece with the hollow wheel, and the hollow wheel (21) having an internal toothing (20) and the drive shaft end remote from the electric motor (10) having an external toothing (19) formed according to the internal toothing (20) and meshing by the external toothing (19) with the internal toothing (20) of the hollow wheel (21), the starting pinion (12) being indirectly or directly attached rigidly and nonrotatably to the gear shaft (24), and the hollow wheel (21) and the gear shaft (24) being coupled to one another via an elastic connecting element, the improvement comprising a bearing (25) mounted in the housing cover (18) to receive the sleeve (23) of the hollow wheel (21), and wherein the elastic connecting element is formed as an elastic damping ring (34), said damping ring (34) being mounted in the hollow wheel (21) so as to surround the gear shaft (24), and, wherein the damping ring (34) has an external toothing (35) and an internal tooting (36), and the gear shaft (24) has an external toothing (33), said external toothing (35) of the damping ring (34) being shaped according to the internal toothing (20) of the hollow wheel (21), and wherein said external toothing (35) of the damping ring (34) engages in the internal toothing (20) of the hollow wheel (21) and the damping ring (34) has an internal toothing (36), the external toothing (33) of the gear shaft (24) intermeshing with the internal toothing (36) of the damping ring (34)
