ABSTRACT:
A brush and ring distributor for controlling the primary circuit for distributor ignition systems of internal combustion engines, comprising a rotating segmented slip ring having one contact segment and two breaker segments per engine cylinder, used in conjunction with two carbon graphite type brushes mounted in a brush holder mounted to a conventional type point plate with electrical connections between the bottom brush and the point plate and electrical connections between the top brush and a coil and condenser. The two brushes running on the segmented slip ring contact a common segment and close the primary circuit. As the slip ring rotates the brushes contact separate breaker segments and lose contact with the common segment, opening the primary circuit.
