A decompression mechanism in an engine is provided, which is constructed so that a centrifugal weight, a pivot supporting the centrifugal weight on a driven timing gear, and an operating pin adapted to transmit the swinging movement of the centrifugal weight to a decompression cam shaft, can be formed as a single piece from a single steel wire, thereby providing a reduction in cost. The centrifugal weight is formed into a bow-like shape from a steel wire, and a pivot and a pin are formed by bending the steel wire sideways from opposite ends of the centrifugal weight.

[ We claim:] [1.] A decompression mechanism in an engine having a driven timing gear, said mechanism comprising an annular recess formed in one end face of said driven timing gear, a cam for opening and closing an engine valve connected to the other end face of said driven timing gear; a decompression cam shaft extending from said annular recess to said cam and rotatable between a first position wherein a vary small lift portion is formed on a base face of said cam and a second position wherein said very small lift portion is retracted; a centrifugal weight positioned in said annular recess; a pivot integrally formed at a base end of said centrifugal weight; a pivot bore in said driven timing gear wherein said pivot is fitted into said pivot bore; an operating pin formed at a tip end of said centrifugal weight and engaged with said decompression cam shaft, wherein said decompression cam shaft can be rotated from the first position to the second position by a centrifugal operation of said centrifugal weight; and a decompression spring connected to said centrifugal weight for biasing said centrifugal weight toward the first position, wherein said centrifugal weight, said pivot bent sideways from one end of said centrifugal weight and said operating pin bent from the other end of said centrifugal weight are integrally formed.
