Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0725216A2] Disclosed is a starter which is simplified in the structure of its pinion rotation regulating mechanism and is down-sized in its entire structure. A pinion regulating member (230) abuts with a pinion (200) and moves the pinion (200) towards a ring gear (100) by the rotation of an output shat (220), while preventing rotation of the pinion (200). When the pinion (200) abuts with the ring gear (100), the pinion regulating member (230) bends and gradually rotates the pinion (200) to mesh with the ring gear (100). By this arrangement and operation, generation of abrasion powder is reduced with reduced number of component parts. <IMAGE>
