What is the working principle of a motorcycle magneto?
Author:
The motorcycle magneto is a small alternator, mainly used to start motorcycles and as an ignition power source in the ignition system of gasoline engines. Its working principle is to generate a magnetic field by energizing, so that the rotor starts to rotate, and then drives the wheel to rotate. The method of controlling the speed is by adjusting the size of the resistor. The motorcycle magneto ignition system is composed of a switch, an ignition coil, a circuit breaker, a capacitor, a distributor, and a safety discharge device. The high voltage will be distributed to the spark plugs of each cylinder.
The working principle of motorcycle magneto is relatively simple, but it plays a vital role in practical application. It uses a permanent magnet to generate a magnetic field, and a current is generated by rotating the magnet, thereby generating a magnetic field. When current passes through the wire, the magnetic field will interact with the current in the wire, generating an electromotive force, which in turn drives the rotor to rotate. The rotation of the rotor will drive the motorcycle wheel to rotate, so as to realize the start of the motorcycle.
The role of motorcycle magneto is not limited to starting the motorcycle, it is also the ignition power supply in the ignition system of gasoline engine. The magneto ignition system is composed of multiple components, including switches, ignition coils, circuit breakers, capacitors, distributors, and safety discharge devices. Among them, the ignition coil is responsible for converting low voltage into high voltage to generate sparks, ignite the mixture, and make the internal combustion engine work normally. The working state of the magneto directly affects the performance of the ignition system, so its reliability and stability are very important.
Magneto mostly rotary magnet type, according to the overall design can be divided into single type and fly wheel. The single type is to integrate various components and install them on the internal combustion engine. The flywheel type is to install the magnet on the flywheel of the internal combustion engine, and the other components are installed on the internal combustion engine. This design is mainly used for single-cylinder engines. Both designs have their own advantages and disadvantages, but both can meet the working requirements of motorcycle magneto.
In short, the motorcycle magneto is a key component of the motorcycle starting and ignition system, and its working principle is simple and efficient. By energizing the magnetic field, the rotor starts to rotate and drives the wheel to rotate. The way to control the speed is to adjust the resistance. The magneto ignition system is composed of multiple components to ensure the normal operation of the motorcycle. Whether it is a single type or flywheel design, it can meet the needs of motorcycle magneto.
