The distributor has a distributor rotor with a radially extending rotor electrode attached nonrotably to a drive shaft, a distributor cap provided with a number of connectors on top each having a through-going opening in an interior wall of the cap, a center electrode insertable through the center connector in the cap and distributor electrodes insertable through peripherally disposed connectors so that they are positionable spaced from the rotor electrode during rotation of the distributor rotor past them, connecting cables each of which are connected to an electrode for conveying ignition energy to a spark plug and retaining members each releasably holding one of the distributor electrodes in place in the cap. The free end of one of the electrodes may be serrated or knurled while its other end together with the connected end of the connecting cable is enclosed by a lip member made of an elastic insulating material, in which one of the connectors is insertable and tightly held.

Distributor for an ignition system of an internal combustion engine

Device for controlling at least one throttle cross-section at a control

An apparatus for assisting in governing the idling rpm of an internal engine including a bypass line that bypasses a throttle valve in an air intake tube. A rotary slide valve secured to one end of a shaft which is controlled by a motor is rotatable in the bypass line to adjust air flow through the bypass line. The bypass line is integral with a lid-shaped housing part in which roller bearings juxtaposed the rotary slide valve is secured. The upper end of the shaft is rotatable in bearings carried by an upper housing part. The housing parts are secured together in axial alignment with each other.

Governing apparatus for the idling rpm of an internal combustion engine

In control motors having an armature rotatable counter to a spiral spring, a problem arises that the set force of the spiral spring can be changed by the process of installation. The disclosed control motor is intended to enable setting of the force of the spiral spring after installation. To enable setting of the force of the spiral spring after installation, relative to which an armature of a control motor is rotatable, a shaft on which the armature is supported is screwed with a screw end into a threaded bore of a housing bottom end. Connected to the shaft is an adjusting element, which with a driver arm engages an end portion provided on the outer end of the spiral spring. By rotating the ends of the shaft, which are accessible from outside, the force of the spiral spring can be changed. The invention is preferably applicable to idling adjusters, but it is not limited to this field of application.

Electric control motor

To increase the resistance against high-voltage flash-over or arc-over of a distributor rotor with a built-in radio noise suppression resistor (5), the radio noise suppression resistor (5) is formed together with the distribution terminal (1) and a central contact terminal (4) in form of a plate (11) in a unitary subassembly, for example by rivet connection of the terminals to end caps (8, 9) on the resistor, the subassembly then being molded into the rotor body (6) during an injection-molding step. To provide for mechanical strength, the resistor preferably includes fiber-reinforced epoxy as a substrate or carrier, or as a jacket. Preferably, the contact plate (11) is placed at a level below that of the resistor (5) and surrounded by an insulating jacket of increasing thickness towards the plate, so that the thickness of insulating material with respect to adjacent grounded or chassis connection elements, such as an attachment flange or screw bushing (17) is increased.

Automotive-type distributor rotor with built-in suppressor resistor

Ignition device for internal combustion engines

The control generator of an ignition distributor for a transistor-coil ignition comprises an annular coil (55), a rotor (54) and a stator, which is a riveted unit comprising a stator plate (18), a permanent magnet (17) and a pole disc (56). The rotor and the pole disc are molded elements of sintered iron or of a mixture of sintered iron powder and carbonyl iron powder having a binder of thermosetting resin. The rotor and the pole disc have cooperating pole teeth (59,51), which are directed parallel to the axis (60) and whose cross section is triangular, with the triangular tips oriented toward one another. These 'pointed teeth' produce a more steeply inclined signal course, as a result of which a decreased inherent shifting of the inductive transducer, and thereby more reliable starting of the engine, are attained.

To provide for fine adjustment of the timing of operation of the ignition breaker switches, the breaker plate is connected by an adjustable link to a vacuum ignition control diaphragm, the link being a two-element unit, one element having a right-hand thread at the end and the other a left-hand thread, coupled by a coupling element rotatable in both said right and left-hand threads to shorten or lengthen the overall length of the link. The coupling element is externally accessible, for example by means of an additional transmission wheel or gear.

Ignition distributor-circuit breaker assembly for internal combustion

Four pole pieces embedded in the cylindrical periphery of a non-magnetic rotor disk are connected with each of a number of magnets embedded in the disk in circumferentially distributed positions spaced from the rotor shaft and from the disk periphery. Of these pole pieces, one circumferentially interleaved pair is connected with one pole of the magnet by a magnetically conducting yoke strip embedded in one circular face of the disk and the other pair is similarly connected with the other pole of the magnet. The spacing between the first and second pole piece is equal to the spacing between the third and fourth and less than that between the second and third, the latter spacing being equal to the spacing between groups of pole pieces associated with different magnets, for the case of a uniformly timed firing sequence of a multicylinder engine.

To provide for reliable connection under conditions of extremes of shock and vibration, an axially acting contact spring is located between the movable electrode, typically connected to the wire, and the fixed electrode, then forming the connection in the distributor cap, the spring forming a current carrying contact element while exerting axially directed bias force; releasable holding means releasably, positively connect the cable and the socket of the distributor cap so that the spring can act as a resilient contact element. These releasable means may be either magnetic force means, a bayonet connection, a snap catch, or a collar fixed to the wire which is secured by a holder to the cap, the spring, in all instances, being interposed between the central connecting wire of the cable and the fixed terminal within the distributor cap.
