  1. Starter Drives

  2. DRIVE FEATURES • PINION DRIVE GEAR MESHES WITH FLYWHEEL GEAR • MUST ENGAGE BEFORE ROTATION • Called Positive Engagement • PINION GEAR TEETH ARE TAPERED • ENGINE MUST NOT ROTATE THE STARTER • NORMAL CRANKING SPEED IS 200 RPM

  3. 15-20 to 1 Due to ratio between drive and ring gear, the drive must rotate over 3000 rpm to turn engine at 200 rpm

  4. Drive Assembly • Drive gear to mesh with flywheel ring gear • Overrunning clutch to prevent engine from driving starter once engine starts but operator hasn’t yet released the key switch • Drive is splined to armature shaft • Two types of splines, 1st Dyer Drive, splines are helical, allows drive to slightly rotate. Drive engages easier with ring gear • 2nd type splines are straight cut, can cause tooth abutment issues, drive does not slightly rotate as engages ring gear

  5. Two types of Starters • Direct Drive • Gear Reduction Drive

  6. Direct Drive • Drive is splined directly to armature • Most common type of starter • Cheaper to manufacture, and repair • Contains less parts than reduction type

  7. Breakdown of Direct Drive Starter

  8. Gear Reduction Type Pros • A set of gears or planetary gear set connect armature to drive assembly • Higher torque output from reduction gears • Turns engine faster through compression cycles • Smaller and lighter starter motor • More efficient, less electrical energy converted to heat. Motor will last longer.

  9. Gear Reduction Type Cons • Greater number of parts, more costly to manufacture and repair • Current through solenoid can be much higher (over 200 amps), must use proper starter relay

  10. Breakdown of planetary type reduction starter
