Abstract (en)
[origin: WO8912742A1] In a starter for internal combustion engines with an electric starter motor (10) having a drive shaft (16), a starter pinion (12) engaging in a starter ring gear (13) of an internal combustion engine and with a transmission gear (11) forming the operative connection between the drive shaft (16) and the starter pinion (12), the risk of breakage in the drive train transmitting the torque of the starter motor (10) to the starter pinion (12) as a result of the compression and depression shocks arising from the internal combustion engine to be started is reduced by securing the starter pinion (12) directly or indirectly so as to turn with the gear shaft (24), which is connected via a flexible coupling (34) to an annular gear (21) with internal teeth (20) with which the outer teeth of the drive shaft (16) engage.
