Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 125 words
A starter dynamo comprising: a rotatable output shaft having an enlarged diameter portion at one end thereof and a reduced diameter portion along the remainder thereof; rotational power transmission means at said one end of said shaft; a D.C. motor having an armature mounted on a hollow armature rotary shaft mounted coaxially around said output shaft, with said armature mounted coaxially around said reduced diameter portion of said output shaft; one way clutch means for rotatably connecting said hollow shaft to said enlarged diameter portion of said output shaft in one rotational direction; and a generator provided with a flywheel magnet fixed to another end of said output shaft and axially spaced from said D.C. motor, whereby the diameter of said D.C. motor is reduced.
