Abstract

A cranking arrangement has a rotor, an output shaft driven by a rotor, a pinion carried by the output shaft for driving a toothed ring of an internal combustion engine, the output shaft being supported so that it can be displaced axially for engagement and disengagement of the pinion, and a brake surface. The output shaft acts upon the rotor in a disengaged position axially in such a way that the rotor meets the brake surface.
