Study Notes

Starting Motor Function

The starting motor converts battery electricity into mechanical energy to rotate the engine flywheel and crankshaft.
When the ignition switch is in the start position, it powers the pull-in coil, moving the selector fork forward to engage the drive gear.

Working Principle

A small current flows through the armature, causing it to rotate slowly, facilitating gear engagement.
Once engaged, the pull-in coil connects the battery to the starter motor's main circuit, allowing high current to flow through the armature for rapid rotation.

Operations of the Start Key

The start key energizes both the pull-in and hold coils, enabling the armature to rotate slowly for gear meshing.
When the main power is activated, high current flows to the armature, while the pull-in coil is short-circuited, maintaining the selector fork in position with high current.

Stopping the Start Process

Upon completion of the start, the main power generates opposing magnetic fields in the pull-in and hold coils.
These opposing fields cancel each other out, allowing the selector fork to return to its original position due to spring force once the main power is disconnected and the armature stops rotating.
