ABSTRACT:
A pinion moving member on an output shaft is pushed forward by a pinion pushing member such as a lever which is driven by a plunger of an electromagnet switch. After a pinion gear of the pinion moving member abuts a ring gear, reaction force is stored in a spring as the plunger of the electromagnet switch moves further. When the pinion gear comes into meshing engagement with the ring gear by the reaction force of the spring, a retreat restricting member restricts retreat of the pinion moving member. The retreat restricting member are provided separately from the pinion pushing member so that the the pinion pushing member driven by the electromagnet switch need not restrict the retreat of the pinion moving member.
