To prevent reverse-direction operation of an internal combustion (IC) engine to which the ignition system is connected which, possibly, may lead to dangerous conditions if the IC engine is used, for example in a chain saw, lawn mower, or the like, a diode (35) is connected across a second, ignition instant modifying R/C circuit (34, 33) in the control network (29) of the magneto ignition system, which includes a first R/C circuit (30, 31) to provide for immediate conduction of a control transistor (27) and hence blocking of a controlled ignition transistor (21) and disconnection of the ignition system in case of reverse rotation. This system is a further development of the basic ignition system described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,188,929, to which reference is made. |
