Patent ID: 8032292

Claim:
Electrical ignition procedure for internal combustion engines, using an arrangement of multiple coils (U 1 , U 5 ) and of a magnetic generator (P, M, S, N) that is coupled with the machine and turns synchronous to the machine, whose magnetic field partially flows through the coils (U 1 , U 5 ) and thereby generates a sequence of magnetic flux changes (Ba, 1 , 3 , 5 , 7 ; Bb, 9 , 11 , 13 , 15 ) for each revolution, whereby a sequence of corresponding alternating current half waves ( 2 , 4 , 6 , 8 ; 10 , 12 , 14 , 16 ) is induced in the coils (U 1 , U 5 ), that are used for: charging an energy storage element (U 4 ) that is discharged by activated an ignition switch (U 9 ) via the primary coil winding (Lp) of an ignition transmitter (U 5 ) for triggering an ignition spark (FU) for the combustion engine scanning, acquiring, processing and/or assessing via a microelectronic and/or programmable control device (U 8 ), that is used for activating the ignition switch (U 9 ) at an ignition time (Zzp) in dependence on the acquired and assessed alternating current half waves (P 1 . . . 4 , A 1 , A 2 ) and/or on the state of the internal combustion engine, and for formation of the power supply (VDD) for the control device (U 8 ), characterized by an operating mode that is realized or able to be realized with the control device for switching combustion off for the internal combustion engine, whereby by means of the correspondingly arranged control device (U 8 ), the ignition switch (U 9 ) is guided over less than, or for a fraction of, the time span that is needed for a complete revolution of the magnetic generator.
