RECOIL STARTER

摘要

A recoil starter exemplified in the embodiment includes: a starter case; a rope reel; a recoil rope; a ratchet; and a drive pulley. When the rope reel is rotated by pulling the recoil rope, the ratchet pivots to engage an engaged unit of the drive pulley to thereby transmit a torque of the rope reel to an engine. The rope reel has: a ratchet receiving unit; and a reinforcing unit. The ratchet receiving unit is arranged to receive a front end portion of the ratchet when it is engaged with the engaged unit of the drive pulley. And, the reinforcing unit extends in a circumferential direction of the rope reel with respect to the ratchet receiving unit as its leg portion.

主权项

1. A recoil starter including:
a starter case (11); a rope reel (12) attached rotatable to the starter case (11); a recoil rope (13) wound around the rope reel (12); a ratchet (14) pivotably attached to the rope reel (12); and a drive pulley (15) connected to an engine, the drive pulley (15) having an engaged unit (15a) engageable with the ratchet (14), wherein, when the rope reel is rotated by pulling the recoil rope (13), the ratchet (14) pivots to engage the engaged unit (15a) of the drive pulley (15) to thereby transmit a torque of the rope reel (12) to an engine, and wherein the rope reel (12) has:
a ratchet receiving unit (12c) arranged to receive a front end portion (14b) of the ratchet (14) when it is engaged with the engaged unit (15a) of the drive pulley (15); anda reinforcing unit (12d) that extends in a circumferential direction of the rope reel (12) with respect to the ratchet receiving unit as its leg portion.
