The best startup solution for “Black Boot” or “Paralyzed Boat Boot”

What is a spring energy storage starter: A device that gives a diesel engine a hand-cranked mechanical energy storage starting function. It stores the mechanical energy of several rotations of human power in a spring as a medium and releases it at once to start a larger engine. It is the best starting solution for “black start” or “paralyzed boat start”. Mostly used in military, rescue, fire and other emergency conditions (usually called: mechanical energy storage starter, hand crank starter, spring motor, mechanical starter, spring starter, etc.).
Definition: Energy storage starter is a new type of reliable energy-saving and environmentally friendly diesel engine starter. It adopts a purely mechanical structure and does not need other energy sources to complete the working process except for human power. The difference of other starting methods is that it does not need to be equipped with a variety of other auxiliary equipment, such as batteries, connecting cables, or gas tanks, hydraulic reservoirs, valves and pipelines, etc., and maintenance is very simple. The energy storage motor has a compact structure, safe operation, energy saving, no environmental pollution, low cost and strong applicability.

1. Marine Engines: Spring starter motors can be used as a backup to the electric starter for marine engines. They are especially useful in the event of a dead battery or starter motor failure.
2. Aircraft Engines: Some small airplanes still use spring starter motors as a backup to electric starters. They are particularly useful in the event of a dead battery or starter motor failure.
3. Stationary engines: Spring starter motors can be used to start stationary engines, such as generators or water pumps, where there is no electricity.
4. Emergency Backup:Spring starter motors can be used as a backup in emergency situations, such as power outages or natural disasters, to start engines needed for critical operations.
5. Old and Antique Vehicles:Some old and antique vehicles still use spring starter motors as part of their original equipment. These vehicles may include classic cars, motorcycles, tractors and other types of antique machinery.
6. Military vehicles:Some military vehicles still use spring starters, especially in rugged and remote areas where electricity may not be readily available.
7. Remote Areas:Spring starter motors are very useful in remote areas where power supply is limited, such as wilderness areas, offshore drilling platforms or remote mining areas.
8. Agricultural machinery:Spring starter motors can be used to start agricultural machinery such as irrigation pumps, harvesters and plows. This is especially useful in rural areas where electricity is limited.
9. Construction Equipment:Some construction equipment, such as generators, compressors and welders, may still use spring starter motors as a backup to electric starters.
10. Emergency Vehicles:Spring starter motors may be used in emergency vehicles, such as ambulances and fire trucks, as a backup to an electric starter in case of power outages or other emergencies.

Mechanical energy storage starter

Structure
Energy storage starter energy storage and release is the spring as a medium, is a more reliable disc spring for the energy storage medium starter, it can be adapted to medium-sized, heavy-duty, and even high-horsepower diesel engine starting needs.

The hand cranked disc spring energy storage starter assembly consists of four major parts (institutions), namely, disc moving mechanism, energy storage mechanism, release mechanism and clutch mechanism. It is a schematic diagram of the basic structure of a typical disc spring energy storage motor.
The disc drive mechanism is the human power input mechanism, and the main parts are the disc drive shaft and transmission gear payment. It is the necessary way to convert the work done by manpower into spring potential energy. One of its roles is to determine the space and angle of disking required for human disking, so that the operation is convenient and comfortable; secondly, it changes the direction of rotation of the input torque, so that the axis of rotation is in line with the direction of the axis of the main shaft of the disc spring energy storage; the third role is to limit the reversal of the disking shaft; and the fourth role is the radial support and axial thrust thrust of the main shaft.

Working Principle

Energy storage mechanism is the main mechanism of the starter, the main parts are disc springs and spindle, they and their matching parts together, to achieve the following functions, one is the aforementioned human input torque into the axial force, the force compression of the disc spring group, the energy stored; the second is the spring potential energy into the spindle through the output torque, the formation of the diesel engine to rotate the power.

The release mechanism is the starter’s maneuvering mechanism, and the main parts are the lifting lever assembly and the release lever working chain. The operator realizes two operations through the lifting lever and release lever. The purpose of operating the lifting lever is to put the release mechanism in a state of readiness to store energy, in which the rotation of the main shaft will be limited in order to realize the spring energy storage. The purpose of operating the release lever is to release the restriction of the main shaft rotation when the energy storage process is completed and the diesel engine needs to be started, and at the same time to complete the diesel engine starting process in which the disc spring releases the energy and the main shaft outputs the torque to drive the flywheel drive gear to rotate. Clutch mechanism is to make the starter motor and engine movement combined and disengaged institutions, the main part is the flywheel drive gear, which with the help of the starter motor spindle spiral groove, resulting in axial movement, when the need to start the diesel engine, the rotation of the spindle to drive it to the flywheel direction movement, to achieve and flywheel gear ring engagement; on the contrary, when the starter motor work is completed, the diesel engine began to actively rotate, the diesel flywheel drive the rotation of the flywheel drive gear, and at the same time, complete the disc spring release, the main shaft output torque, drive the flywheel drive gear rotation diesel engine starting process. rotation of the flywheel drive gear, while making it move in the opposite direction along the axis, disengaging the gear meshing.

The storage starter is easy to operate. When the diesel engine needs to start, first make sure that the diesel oil supply system of the diesel engine is supplied normally, pull the lifting lever of the starter motor to make the release mechanism in the state of energy storage readiness, use the disk handle to rotate the shaft of the starter motor in the specified direction for a few revolutions, to achieve the required state of energy storage, and then push the release lever in the direction of the instructions to complete the starting of the diesel engine.
