An armature for a permanent magnet brushed motor includes a shaft, a number of silicon steel laminations circumferentially around the shaft, a commutator adjacent to an end of the shaft, and an enameled wire winding wound around the silicon steel laminations and the commutator. A plastic sleeve capable of withstanding high temperature is disposed between the commutator and the silicon steel laminations and adjacent to the commutator. A plastic member wraps around where the enameled wire winding winds the commutator, and fixedly attaching to the plastic sleeve. As such, the plastic member establishes a first point of attachment at where the enameled wire winding winds the commutator and a second point of attachment to the plastic sleeve. The problem of the enameled wire winding being loosed or broken due to the armature's high-speed rotation is prevented, thereby enhancing the motor's robustness and operational life.

A commutator includes an insulating section that is formed in a tube shape including a shaft insertion hole through which a shaft is inserted, and that is formed with an indented portion in an end portion at one side in an axial direction of the shaft. The commutator also includes plural segments that are supported by an outer peripheral portion of the insulating section, that are arrayed around a circumferential direction of the insulating section with spacings therebetween, and that are each provided with an anchor portion at an end portion at the one side in the axial direction of the shaft. The commutator also includes a first, second, third short-circuit wires, each connecting the anchor portion of respective one segment to the anchor portion of respective another segment, and at least a portion being disposed inside the indented portion formed at the insulating section.

A method produces a brush for a commutator motor, in particularly for a motor vehicle fan, for electrically contacting a connected contact lead to a commutator via a spring-loaded contact with a commutator. Accordingly, a brush material, particularly carbon dust, is poured into a cuboid matrix and compressed by a plunger in a contact direction for forming the brush.

A commutator is formed by providing an electrically insulating commutator body. First and second areas are defined on the commutator body covering a brush contact surface in an alternating manner. At least the surfaces of the first areas are formed of laser direct structured material. The first areas are treated by a laser to form metal particle layers. Conductive layers are formed on the metal particle layers by a plating process to form commutator segments. Terminals are connected to the conductive layers for connecting the commutator to rotor windings.
