A DC-excited brushed motor includes a commutation system with a commutator with vanes uniformly distributed in a circumferential direction and at least two brushes which interact with the vanes, to connect the brushes to a DC voltage network via connecting leads. The commutation system is in a metal housing of the motor, and the motor includes an interference suppressor for the commutation system including an interference suppression choke and a capacitor for each connection lead, and the connection leads include an EMC shield between a connection for the respective capacitor and a housing passage through the metal housing of the motor.

An electric machine has a stator, a rotor, and a slip ring module which is connected to a motor shaft of the electric machine. The slip ring module is equipped with at least one wire guiding channel, through which a respective contact wire is guided in order to electrically connect a rotor winding to a slip ring. A first section of the wire guiding channel runs from the slip ring in the axial direction parallel to the motor shaft. A second section of the wire guiding channel runs adjacently thereto radially outwards. An elastic seal element which surrounds the respective contact wire is arranged in or on the second section in order to seal the wire guiding channel to prevent a lubricant from entering the channel.

A vertical axis wind turbine system having a vertical mast with one or more turbine units supported thereon. The turbine units are of modular construction for assembly around the foot of the mast; are vertically moveable along the height of the mast by a winch system; and are selectively interlocking with the mast to fix the turbine units in parked positions. The turbine system and each turbine unit includes a network of portals and interior rooms for the passage of personnel through the system, including each turbine unit. The electrical generators, and other sub-components, in the turbine units are of modular construction that permits the selective removal and replacement of component segments, including the transport of component segments through the portals and interior rooms of the turbine system while the turbine units remain supported on the mast. The electrical generators are also selectively convertible between AC generators and DC generators.

The disclosure discloses a novel arched commutator structure of a brush direct current motor, which comprises a round nut or a bolt, a pressing ring, a reinforcing ring, a sleeve, a commutator segment group and a mica ring. The effective part of the arched commutator is the commutator segment group consisting of commutator segments with V-shaped gaps at two ends and mica sheets; and the V-shaped groove of the commutator segment group is clamped by the V-shaped cone part of the pressing ring at one end and the V-shaped cone part of the sleeve at the other end. The advantages are: the deformation of the commutator caused by various acting forces generated in the operation process of the motor can be reduced and even prevented; the economic benefit generated every year cannot be estimated by taking a hundred million as a unit; materials are saved; the production cost is reduced.

Disclosed is an electric motor, in particular for a vehicle drive. In one example, the electric motor has a housing (12) and a rotor shaft (14) which is accommodated in the housing (12) such that it can rotate via bearings (16). The housing (12) and the rotor shaft (14) are electrically connected to one another via a singular electrically conductive contact ring (42) to ground the rotor shaft (14).

A method for in-place machining of a collector ring attached to a turbine shaft of a hydroelectric generator includes: attaching a support member to stationary portions of the hydroelectric generator, the support member being configured to support a machine tool at an angle parallel to an inclination angle of an axis of rotation of the turbine shaft; attaching an adjustable positioning device to the support member; attaching the machine tool to the adjustable positioning device, the machine tool being configured to perform a machining operation on the collector ring; controlling a rotational speed of the turbine shaft to a specified rotational speed by controlling a flow of water through the turbine; adjusting the adjustable positioning device to adjust a position of the machine tool with respect to the collector ring; and performing the machining operation on the collector ring at the specified rotational speed of the turbine shaft.

The present disclosure relates generally to a collector ring assembly for use in a rotor comprising a collector (or slip) ring body and a shaft in which the collector ring body and shaft each have mating features so that the collector ring body may be lockably attached to the shaft.
