A slip ring system of an electrically excited dynamoelectric machine can be designed to be closed or open and includes a carrier segment configured to include a brush holder which includes a brush pocket for receiving a brush. The brush holder includes means for cooling the brush in the brush holder and/or for cooling the brush holder and has a surface-enlarging structure so as to enable a cooling air flow to be guided within the slip ring system and thereby cool the brush holder and/or brush pocket.

An air intake port has an opening part and an air intake port cover forming an air flow channel from the opening part to the air intake port. The air intake port cover has a guide plate to block the opening part and the air intake port from each other and leave an air flow path between the guide plate and an outer perimeter surface facing a vehicle body, a discharge port formed in the outer perimeter surface, a discharge port cover separating the discharge port and the air intake port from each other, and leaving an air flow path from the opening part to the discharge port, and a pair of cylindrical members, one end of each being connected to two holes formed in the discharge port cover, and the other ends facing each other in a travel direction, and tapering in cross-sectional area.

An electric motor includes a stator, a rotor, a rotor shaft and a pump. The rotor is disposed within the stator and separated from the stator by an airgap. The airgap inadvertently accumulates a fluid. The rotor shaft is connected to the rotor. The pump is configured to move the fluid out of the airgap.
