ABSTRACT:
A starter device for an internal combustion engine comprises a unit (1) which is fixed relative to the engine, a movable unit (2) which is rotatable relative to the fixed unit about an axis of rotation (28), included in the movable unit (2) on the one hand a cord drum (42) with a starter cord (47) and on the other hand a driver device (58) for direct or indirect rotation of the engine shaft on rotation of the cord drum by pulling the starter cord, a return spring chamber (4) accommodating a return spring (3) arranged to be tensioned when the movable unit is rotated by pulling the starter cord and subsequently, by resilience, to return the cord drum to its initial position, and also at least one bearing between said fixed and movable units (2, 1). The special characteristic is the presence of at least one axially acting spring member (5) for pressing the movable unit in the axial direction against a member (36) forming part of the fixed unit, and also at least one sealing member (65, 40, 41) between the environment and at least one of said return spring chamber and said bearing.
