Starting device for an internal combustion engine including a rope pulley (10), a freewheel coupling having a driving coupling part on the pulley, and a driven coupling part on a flywheel of the engine. The driving coupling part includes a ratchet wheel (14) and the driven coupling part includes a movable pawl (18) adapted to engage the ratchet wheel. The ratchet wheel is frusto-conical and has its relatively smaller diameter end facing the flywheel. An outer leg of the pawl is angled to correspond to the taper or cone angle of the ratchet wheel. |
