Abstract
An automatic decompressor for valve-controlled internal combustion engines consists of a decompression lever mounted pivotably on the camshaft and cooperating with a charge changing valve on the internal combustion engine. The decompression lever is mounted on the camshaft in such fashion that its rotational axis runs perpendicularly to the camshaft axis. In order to prevent or minimize oscillating movements caused by the action of gravity, the decompression lever is so designed that its total center of gravity lies on the rotational axis.
