Abstract

An object of the present invention is to provide an electric motor which can prevent electric noise generated from a contact between a brush and a commutator from being radiated and diffused to the outside. An electric motor comprises: an armature shaft 28; a coil 29b attached to the armature shaft 28; a commutator 30 attached to the armature shaft 28, and electrically connected to the coil 29b; a brush through which an electric current is supplied to the commutator 30; a conductive shaft bearing 35 configured to rotatably support the armature shaft 28; a yoke 26 incorporated with the shaft bearing 35, and electrically connected to a ground conductor; a conductive shaft bearing 34 arranged in a direction along a center line of the armature shaft 28, different in position from the shaft bearing 35, and configured to rotatably support the armature shaft 28; and a contact plate 51 electrically connected to the shaft bearing 34, and electrically connected to the ground conductor.
