A fluid delivery module includes a housing with a housing interior volume, the housing defining a first brush compartment and a second brush compartment within the housing interior volume; an inlet which introduces fluid into the housing interior volume; an outlet which discharges fluid from the housing interior volume; a fluid pump within the housing interior volume and having a pump section and a motor assembly which receives electric power through a first carbon brush and a second carbon brush such that the first carbon brush is received within a first carbon brush holder of the motor assembly and the second carbon brush is received within a second carbon brush holder of the motor assembly; and a filter within the housing interior volume which circumferentially surrounds the fluid pump. The first brush compartment encloses the first carbon brush holder and the second brush compartment encloses the second carbon brush holder.

An electric motor brush holder for a motor vehicle starter includes a mounting plate, at least one cage mounted on the mounting plate, where the cage has a housing and at least one opening, at least one brush positioned inside said housing of the cage, and a conductive braid connected to the brush, said conductive braid passing through the opening of the cage, where the conductive braid is supported at least on the portion thereof passing through said opening.

A brush holder for holding at least two brushes for a sliding contact arrangement, including an intermediate element and two contact elements for electrically contacting at least one of the brushes, the contact elements being arranged on two opposite sides of the intermediate element and the intermediate element having a receptacle extending through the opposite sides for a rotating shaft.

The present invention provides a method for linking a flexible member that is displaced in a predetermined direction and a fixed member linked with the flexible member. The method includes a flexible member supporting step of sandwiching and supporting the flexible member by a first section of a plate-like link member fixed and held to the fixed member and a second section of the link member opposing the first section; and a joining step of joining at least one of the first section and the second section with the flexible member in a contact area in which the first and the second sections contact the flexible member, at a position spaced apart by a predetermined distance from a vibration transmitted end portion to which vibrations of the flexible member are transmitted.

An electric motor is provided including a stator, an armature rotatably received within the stator and having an armature shaft on which a commutator is mounted, and a brush assembly. The brush assembly includes a planar portion disposed around the commutator and accommodating a plurality of brushes, a bridge portion disposed at an end of the commutator and extending from the planer portion via two or more legs, and metal routing(s) disposed on or within the bridge portion to electrically couple the brushes.

An electric power steering assembly includes a motor which includes a brush assembly. The brush assembly includes a brush base, a plurality of brush units and a plurality of fixing units for fixing the brush units to the brush base. The brush unit includes a brush, a guide rail and a spring. The rail includes two guiding arms, a closed end interconnecting the guiding arms and wings extending from free ends of the guiding arms. Grooves in the brush receive the guiding arms. The fixing unit includes a first fixture and a second fixture. The closed end of the guide rail engages the first fixture. The second fixture includes two columns spaced from each other. Each column defines a slot in a top end. Protrusions extend from a side of each slot to lock the wings in the slots.

An electric motor is provided including a stator and an armature rotatably received within the stator, the armature having an armature shaft on which a commutator is mounted. The motor also includes a brush assembly having a brush card mount disposed around the commutator, a brush holder mounted on a surface of the brush card mount, and a brush disposed within the brush holder in sliding contact with the commutator to supply electric current to the commutator. A torsion spring is secured to the brush card mount adjacent the brush holder, the spring having a leg arranged to engage the back surface of the brush. A spring stop post is disposed proximate an outer periphery of the brush card mount to limit an outward movement of the leg of the spring away from the back surface of the brush.

An electric motor includes a stator, a shaft rotatable with respect to the stator, and a lamination stack mounted on the shaft and having radially extending teeth forming slots therebetween. An end insulator is provided at an end of the lamination stack having forming slots therebetween. Motor coils are wound in the lamination stack slots and the end insulator slots. A fan having blades attached to a fan ring and mounted to an end of the lamination stack. The fan ring includes longitudinally-extending tongues arranged to be mounted at the end of the lamination stack and the end insulator includes longitudinally-extending notches corresponding to the tongues of the fan ring to allow the tongues to be in direct contact with the end of the lamination stack.

The invention mainly concerns a brush holder (10) for an electric motor, in particular the starter motor of a motor vehicle, comprising guide cages (13) for receiving the brushes (15) and a support plate (12) on which the guide cages (13) are positioned. The guide cages (13) are made from an insulating material. The brush holder (10) comprises legs (29) fixed on the support plate (12), around each of which a spiral spring (24) is intended to be mounted in order to exert a force on the brush (15) in such a way as to press the brush (15) against a collector.

Example generator brush adapters include a plate configured to mount to a static support structure and to couple to a brush assembly, such that the brush assembly is mounted to the static support structure along a single degree of freedom.
