Circuit for a latching relay
First Claim
1. A circuit arrangement for an engagement relay of a starter mechanism of an internal combustion engine, for bringing two gearwheels in engagement, said circuit arrangement comprising a switching element which reduces a relay current after a first time period before meshing of the two gear wheels to a determined current value during a second time period, said switching element being formed as a controlling and regulating device which increases a relay current to a predetermined value to a third time period which starts when one gear wheel reaches the other gear wheel.
