Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to an apparatus for controlling the triggering sequence in capacitive ignition systems for internal combustion engines. The induction achieved by a flywheel magneto usually results in three voltage wave halves, of which two (A,B) have one polarity and an intermediate one (C) has an opposite polarity. In the present case, the first voltage halfwave (A) is used for triggering voltage and the subsequent halfwave with opposite polarity (C) for the charging voltage. The subsequent last voltage halfwave is suppressed (B') to a level below the triggering level. This is achieved by arranging an inhibiting circuit (11-15) for the conventional triggering circuit (8,9,10) by charging (11) a further capacitor (12) during the charging phase itself, the capacitor (12) maintaining control voltage for a further thyristor (15) or triac, which is arranged to short-circuit the triggering voltage.
