20080265708 | Commutator, direct current motor, and manufacturing method of commutator - A commutator main body has a cylindrical insulating body, and a plurality of segments arranged in an outer circumference of the insulating body. A short-circuit member is arranged in an end in an axial direction of the insulating body. The short-circuit member has a plurality of first short-circuit pieces and a plurality of second short-circuit pieces. A tabular insulating portion covers first coupling portions of the first short-circuit pieces, and second coupling portions of the second short-circuit pieces. The insulating portion has a restriction recess, and the end in the axial direction has a restriction projection. The restriction projection is engaged with the restriction recess, whereby the movement of the short-circuit member in the circumferential direction with respect to the commutator main body is restricted. Accordingly, the assembly of the short-circuit member in the commutator main body is facilitated. | 10-30-2008 |
20080280469 | Short-circuit member, commutator, armature, and method for manufacturing short-circuit member - The number of conductor members in a first conductor member group and the number of conductor members in a second conductor member group are equal to each other. An inner terminal of each conductor member is displaced from an outer terminal of the same conductor member with respect to the circumferential direction of the corresponding conductor member group. Each outer terminal of the first conductor member group is displaced from a corresponding one of the outer terminals of the second conductor member with respect to the circumferential direction of the first conductor member group. | 11-13-2008 |
20080293310 | Short-Circuit Member, Commutator, Armature, and Method for Manufacturing Short-Circuit Member - The number of conductor members in a first conductor member group and the number of conductor members in a second conductor member group are equal to each other and are odd numbers. An inner terminal of each conductor member is displaced from an outer terminal of the same conductor member by 90 degrees with respect to the circumferential direction of the corresponding conductor member group. Each outer terminal of the first conductor member group is displaced from a corresponding one of the outer terminals of the second conductor member with respect to the circumferential direction of the first conductor member group. | 11-27-2008 |
20090121574 | DIRECT CURRENT MOTOR - A direct current motor is disclosed. The motor includes a stator, a commutator, an armature core, and brushes. The stator has a yoke and magnetic poles. The magnetic poles are arranged at a predetermined pitch along a circumferential direction of the yoke. The number of the magnetic poles is represented by the expression: 2×P (P is an integer not less than 2). The commutator has segments that are arranged in a circumferential direction of the commutator. The number of the segments is represented by the expression: P×N (N is an odd number not less than 3). The armature core is rotatable integrally with the commutator and includes teeth provided by the number represented by the expression: 2×P×N. A coil is wound around the teeth by distributed winding. Each one of the brushes is pressed against and contacts the segments. Two of the segments that are electrically short-circuited by one of the brushes are connected to each other by at least two coils that are arranged at an interval corresponding to an integral multiple of the pitch (360°/(2×P)) of the magnetic poles. | 05-14-2009 |
20090146526 | Short-circuit member assembly, commutator, and motor - A short-circuit member assembly for short-circuiting a plurality of segments arranged in a circumferential direction is disclosed. The short-circuit member assembly includes first and second short-circuit member groups that are superimposed with each other. The first short-circuit member group includes m first terminals, which are superimposed and joined with m first terminals included in the second short-circuit member group to form m first-terminal joint portions. The m first-terminal joint portions and the remaining first terminals in the short-circuit member groups are arranged in the circumferential direction and connected to the segments. All of the second terminals in the first short-circuit member group are superimposed and joined with all of the second terminals included in the second short-circuit member group. | 06-11-2009 |
20090276998 | Short-Circuiting Member, Commutator, and Method of Manufacturing Short-Circuiting Member - A short-circuiting member for preventing a commutator from being elongated in the axial direction without increasing the types of different components. Each component includes outer circumference terminals arranged along an outer circumference, inner circumference terminals arranged along an inner circumference, and connection portions connecting corresponding outer and inner circumference terminals that are separated from each other by a predetermined angle in a circumferential direction. The outer and inner circumference terminals are substantially formed along the same plane. The components are laminated in a state in which the connection portions of one of the components are reversed to the connection portions of another one of the components. The outer terminals adjacent in a lamination direction are in contact with each other, the inner terminals adjacent in the lamination direction are in contact with each other, and the connection portions that are adjacent in the lamination direction are not in contact with each other. | 11-12-2009 |
20100264772 | DIRECT CURRENT MOTOR - A direct current motor is provided that includes an armature core, a commutator, coils, positive brushes, and negative brushes. The armature core includes a stator. The stator has magnets the number of which is represented by P (where P is an even number greater than or equal to six). The coils are wound about the teeth by duplex wave winding. Alternatively, the coils are wound about the teeth such that each pair of coils that are spaced apart by 180° are connected common ones of the segments. Each of the positive brushes and the negative brushes has an angular width WB, at which it slides on the segments. When the angular width of the arrangement pitch of the segments is represented by WP (WP=360°/the number of the segments), and the angular width of the clearance between each pair of circumferentially adjacent segments is represented by WU, the angular width WB is set to satisfy the expression: WB≦(4/P)×WP+WU. | 10-21-2010 |
20110050025 | DIRECT-CURRENT MOTOR AND MANUFACTURING METHOD FOR THE DIRECT-CURRENT MOTOR - A motor is provided that includes magnetic poles, an armature core, armature coils, a commutator, and power supply brushes. The armature core includes teeth arranged in the circumferential direction to extend in a radial pattern. The armature coils include inner layer coils and outer layer coils. Each of the inner layer coils is wound around radially proximal end portions of two circumferentially adjacent teeth or a radially proximal end portion of one of the teeth. The inner layer coils are arranged in the circumferential direction without overlapping each other in the radial direction. Each of the outer layer coils is wound around radially distal end portions of two circumferentially adjacent teeth by distributed winding. The outer layer coils are arranged radially outward of the inner layer coils and are arranged in the circumferential direction without overlapping each other in the radial direction. The circumferential center of the inner layer coils and the circumferential center of the outer layer coils are displaced in the circumferential direction. | 03-03-2011 |
