A small electric generator with an armature rotating in a magnetic field, having a secondary winding that generates a high voltage, such as one used to generate a voltage sufficient to cause a spark to jump between the poles of a spark plug in an internal-combustion engine.
Part of a Local Battery telephone. It is also called a Generator. It is used to convert mechanical motion via a Crank to produce sufficient energy to ring other phones or to signal the Central Office.
A small generator of alternating current with permanent magnets, used in the ignition system of most modern aircraft engines because it produces a hotter spark at high engine speeds than a typical automobile battery system, and it does not depend on an external source of energy.
An electrical device which generates electrical current when it is rotated by an outside source of power. It needs no outside source of power such as a battery. It may produce either low or high tension current.
a small dynamo with a secondary winding that produces a high voltage enabling a spark to jump between the poles of a spark plug in a gasoline engine
a fixed-magnet, alternating-current generator designed to generate sufficient voltage to fire the spark plugs
an alternating current generator which uses a magnetic field from a permanent magnet
a self contained ignition unit, there should already be a condensor inside the mag
a small DC generator with a permanent-magnet field
a small electrical current using device
a technical term for A) an automobile
A small electric generator. A coil of wire (armature) rotates within a magnetic field, creating an electrical current by magnetic induction. In early telephones three or five U-shaped permanent magnets provided the magnetic field and turning a crank on the side of the telephone made the armature rotate between the two arms of the magnet.
Built with permanent magnets, Magneto is a special kind of alternator that generates current for ignition in an internal combustion engine.
A device to generate spark and direct it to the spark plugs. It is similar to a Battery ignition except rather than getting its voltage from the battery, it creates it internally by using magnets and a rotor. It is an electricity generator coupled with a distributor delivering spark to the plugs at the appropriate time to explode the gas and air mixture in the combustion chamber.
An electric generator powered by a magnet
Electric generator using permanent magnets to create a flux field, which is an area of magnetic lines of force cut by a rotating armature to generate electricity.
A high-tension spark generator for the ignition system that does not require an external power source.
Electrical device that both generates and distributes current to the spark plugs. Magneto's do not need a battery to operate, plus another interesting magneto fact is that the intensity of the voltage output will increase with engine speed.
A device that creates the high voltages required for aircraft engine spark plugs. It combines the functions of an automobile engine's coil and distributor.
An alternator with permanent magnets used to generate current for ignition in an internal combustion engine.
