Abstract

Molybdenum disulfide, tungsten disulfide or the like as a solid lubricant and any of alumina, silica, silicon carbide or the like as an abrasive are added to filter graphite. A metal of good electric conductor is coated over the whole surface of a carbon brush material except a part of the carbon brush material to be contacted with a commutator. When the commutator rotates clockwise, a metal coating of the good electric conductor is removed mechanically from at least a part of at least either of a left side surface or a right side surface.
