When in use, the motor 20 is started first, and the output shaft of the motor 20 drives the first sprocket 31 and the second sprocket 32 ​​to rotate. The rotation direction of the second sprocket 32 ​​is opposite to the rotation direction of the one-way bearing 42. At this time, the one-way bearing 42 and the starting shaft 41 cannot rotate relative to each other, and the second sprocket 32 ​​drives the starting shaft 41 to rotate through the one-way bearing 42. After the engine is started, the motor 20 is stopped, the second sprocket 32 ​​and the first sprocket 31 stop rotating, and the starting shaft 41 continues to rotate under the action of the engine.

[0025] For easy assembly, the starter shaft 41 is divided into sections along the axial direction, including an external section 411, a first assembly section 412 and a second assembly section 413 in sequence. The inner ring of the one-way bearing 42 is fixedly sleeved in the first assembly section 412, and the inner ring of the two-way bearing 43 is fixedly sleeved in the second assembly section 413; and the outer diameter of the first assembly section 412 is greater than the outer diameter of the second assembly section 413; the second sprocket 32 ​​includes a sleeve portion located in the center, and a gear ring portion 321 arranged on the periphery of the sleeve portion, and the sleeve portion includes a first sleeve 322 and a second sleeve 323 arranged on both sides of the gear ring portion 321; the first sleeve 322 is sleeved on the outer ring of the one-way bearing 42, and the second sleeve 323 is sleeved on the outer ring of the two-way bearing 43, and the inner diameter of the first sleeve 322 is greater than the inner diameter of the second sleeve 323. The one-way bearing 42 and the two-way bearing 43 cooperate to realize the electric start of the engine and effectively reduce the rotation resistance of the starter shaft 41.

[0026] See also Figure 2 , Figure 4 A battery pack 60 for driving the motor 20 is detachably mounted on the casing 10, and the battery pack 60 includes a base 61 and an outer cover 62 that are interlocked with each other, and a cover plate 63 is mounted on the top of the outer cover 62; an assembly plate 70 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the casing 10, and a plug-in structure that cooperates with the assembly plate 70 and the battery pack 60 is provided.

[0027] The insertion structure includes an insertion strip 71 vertically arranged on the assembly plate 70, and a slot 622 opened on the outer cover 62. The insertion strip 71 and the slot 622 both extend in the vertical direction, and the upper end of the insertion strip 71 is a free end, and the lower end of the slot 622 is an open end. The outer cover 62 is provided with an insert block 621 protrudingly, and the slot 622 is opened on the insert block 621 and is provided with two slots.
