Abstract:
An engine arrangement for internal combustion engines, having a starting motor, a gear arrangement (15), a free-wheel coupling, a power takeoff shift (17), and a shifting pinion (26), which can be shifted axially displaceably by a guide ring (24) into a toothed ring of the engine by a starting relay (30) via deflection lever (27, 127, 227, 327) pivotably supported on a bearing block (36, 136, 236, 336, 436), and an intermediate plate (21, 121, 221, 321, 421) receives a gear member and the starting relay and is inserted between a housing of the starting motor on the one hand and a drive bearing plate on the other, and wherein the intermediate plate and the bearing block form an assembly unit (53), on which the gear arrangement with the power takeoff shaft and the shifting pinion, on the one hand, and the starting relay on the other can be pre-mounted, and are to be joined together via the deflection lever (27, 127, 227, 327), the deflection lever (27, 127, 227, 327) in the pre-assembled state is locked in detent fashion on the bearing block (36, 136, 236, 336, 436) and is inserted from above into the guide ring (24) and simultaneously into the bearing block (36, 136, 236, 336, 436) so as to be locked in detent fashion by the bearing block (36, 136, 236, 336, 436).
