ABSTRACT:
An in-line gear reduction starter drive for driving a pinion from the armature of an electric cranking motor. The drive utilizes a single central shaft that is directly connected to the armature core of the cranking motor armature and the pinion is supported by the shaft. The shaft has an integral gear which forms the sun gear of a planetary gear set. The sun gear drives planet gears which in turn drive a driven member that is rotatably supported by the shaft and which drives the pinion.
