Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0163124A1] The invention relates to a system and a method for starting and/or positioning an internal combustion engine (VM). An electric device (S/G) that is connected to the internal combustion engine via a spring/damper unit (F/D) and has a total drag torque (M1) is provided. According to the invention, the electric device (S/G) is controlled by a circuit in such a way that said electric device excites the spring/damper unit (F/D) in an oscillatory manner, using a torque (M2), whose amplitude is less than the total drag torque (M1) and that the spring/damper unit (F/D), at least in a transient state, transmits a torque to the internal combustion engine (VM), whose amplitude is greater than or equal to the total drag torque (M1).
