Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a pulse starting method for an internal combustion engine in which, during a wind-up phase, a flywheel mass is accelerated in a rotary driven fashion and then during a coupling phase, the rotating flywheel mass is coupled to a rotatably supported shaft of the engine, preferably the crankshaft, in order transmit torque, which is distinguished by the fact that during the wind-up phase (15) and/or the coupling phase (21, 22), the rotational speed progression of the flywheel mass (3) is evaluated, that based on this evaluation, a deduction is made as to whether a successful start of the engine (1) is possible, and that if a successful start is not expected, the shaft (2) is used to bring the engine (1) into an operating position that is favorable for a subsequent second starting attempt.
