ABSTRACT:
A starter including a one-way clutch threadably connected to an output shaft of an electric motor and having an inner member, and a hollow pinion shaft having a pinion secured thereto and loosely fitted at its forward end portion in the inner member of the one-way clutch in such a manner that there is a slight clearance between the inner periphery of the inner member and the outer periphery of the hollow pinion shaft in connecting the inner member to the hollow pinion shaft. By this arrangement, the reaction produced by the pinion when the starter is actuated to start an engine is prevented from being directly transmitted to the inner member of the clutch to thereby inhibit an eccentric motion of the inner member of the clutch.
