Abstract (en)

A coaxial engine starter comprises an electric motor having an armature winding (1) of a single turn and a hollow armature rotary shaft (3) for generating a rotational force for starting an engine. The starter also comprises an over-running clutch mechanism (17) disposed within the hollow armature rotary shaft for preventing the occurrence of an excessive-speed of the armature (1) and having a pinion (20) having a gear teeth number equal to or less than seven for engaging with a ring gear of an engine upon starting of the electric motor. A solenoid switch (24) is also disposed behind the electric motor for moving a pinion shaft (20,26) forward and supplying an electric power to the electric motor.
