Abstract

A DC motor 12, has a stator housing 16 accommodating a permanent magnet stator and a rotor 15 rotatably mounted confronting the stator. The rotor 15 has a shaft 21, a rotor core 22 fitted to the shaft and having laminations forming salient poles or teeth 27. A commutator 23 is fitted to the shaft adjacent one end of the rotor core and windings 24 are wound about the teeth and terminated on segments of the commutator 23. The windings is formed by a number of coils with each coil being wound around a single tooth of the rotor and each tooth supporting a single coil. Brush gear comprising a plurality of brushes 26 in sliding contact with the commutator 23, transfers electrical power to the windings.
