Distributor for multi-cylinder engine

摘要

The distributor of the present invention includes a housing having condenser and points therein and having a rotor adapted to actuate the points for producing intermittent pulses of current at an outlet connector. A dielectric disk is attached to the rotor and is adapted to rotate in unison therewith. The upper surface of the disk includes a conductive sheet which covers only a portion of the upper surface of the disk. A cap is mounted over the distributor housing and includes a pair of contact points which are adapted to be engaged by the conductive sheet on the disk during rotation of the disk. The two contact points include leads which lead to the spark plugs of the engine. A single discharge coil includes a discharge post which is connected to a brush within the distributor cap. The brush extends downwardly through the cap and is in electrical connection with the conductive sheet at all times during rotation of the conductive sheet. The discharge coil also includes an input connection which is connected to the output of the distributor for receiving pulses of electricity therefrom.
