ABSTRACT:
A discharge ignition apparatus for use with a small internal combustion engine has built-in overspeed disable capability. At operating speeds below an overspeed threshold, revolution of a magnet assembly past a stator unit having a magnetically permeable core causes accumulation of charge across a storage capacitor. When the capacitor has reached a fully charged state, a triggering signal is applied to the gate of a SCR device to cause rapid discharge through the primary coil of a step-up transformer. The higher voltage produced at the secondary coil of the step-up transformer is then applied across the gap of a spark plug. At operating speeds exceeding the overspeed threshold, a second trigger circuit renders the SCR conductive prior to substantial accumulation of charge across the storage capacitor. The second trigger circuit includes a zener diode or other voltage threshold element in circuit with a trigger coil operative to produce a speed dependent voltage signal. A high-pass filter, such as a passive RC filter, may be connected interposing the trigger coil and the zener diode to condition the waveform and inhibit accelerated trigger of the SCR at speeds below the overspeed threshold.
