The present invention is provided with: a first housing; a second housing; a guide tube; a third housing; a motor part that is incorporated in the first housing; a screw shaft that is driven to rotate upon reception of the rotational force of a shaft of the motor part and applies power to the third housing; a bearing holder that is provided in the first housing; an inner flange that is provided in the second housing; an outer flange that is provided in the guide tube and that is arranged at a position where the outer flange overlaps the inner flange in an axial direction; a seal that is sandwiched between the inner and the outer flanges; and a coil spring (47) that is provided between the second housing (7) and the guide tube (48) and presses the inner flange (46) toward the outer flange (49) side.

A wiper motor including an electrically conductive housing in which a speed reduction mechanism is housed, a motor body housed within a yoke joined to the housing and having a power supply terminal that contacts a commutator so as to supply electric power to a rotor, and having a brush that includes a ground terminal having one end in contact with the commutator and another end connected to an electrically conductive partitioning wall of the housing that covers an opening in the yoke, a power supply line configured to supply electric power to the power supply terminal via a noise-suppression choke coil, a ground line connected to the partitioning wall and to ground, and a capacitor connecting the power supply line with the ground line, such that a noise component flowing through the ground line passes through the choke coil.

A motor includes a frame having an outer diameter of 10 millimeters or less and an inner surface. The motor also includes an annular magnet attached to the inner surface of the frame, a bracket provided at the frame, and a columnar brush formed of carbon and having an outer peripheral surface. In addition, the motor includes a commutator contacting the outer peripheral surface of the brush, and an elastic member supporting the brush at the bracket. A part of the elastic member is disposed inside of the columnar brush.

A slide-contact portion of a motor has a slide-contact face that contacts a rotating rotor. The slide-contact portion is composed of a material containing an intermetallic compound phase produced by chemical reaction between a first metal which is Sn or an alloy including Sn and a second metal which is a CuNi alloy, a CuMn alloy, an AgPd alloy, a CuAl alloy, or a CuCr alloy.

A motor including: a frame having a width of 10 millimeters or less and an inner surface; an annular magnet attached to the inner surface of the frame; a bracket provided at the frame; a columnar brush formed of carbon and having an outer peripheral surface; a commutator contacting with the outer peripheral surface of the brush; and an elastic member supporting the brush to the bracket, in which at least a part of the elastic member is inside the brush.

A brush assembly for a brush motor includes a support member, brush holders, at least four brushes respectively mounted to the brush holders, and first and second motor terminals for connecting with an external power supply. A first filter circuit is connected between the first motor terminal and corresponding first brushes. A second filter circuit is connected between the second motor terminal and corresponding second brushes. The first and second motor terminals and the first and second filter circuits are mounted in a region defined by two corresponding adjacent brushes forming an angle greater than 60 degrees but less than 180 degrees.

A PMDC motor has a housing, a stator magnet disposed in an interior of the housing, and a rotor core disposed within the stator magnet. A ratio of an outer diameter of the rotor core to the outer diameter of the housing is from 0.60 to 0.67. The noise of the motor during operation is reduced by increasing the thickness of the stator magnet, reducing the outer diameter of the rotor core, reducing the air gap between the magnet and the rotor core and reducing the rotational inertia of the rotor core. The motor is particularly suited for use in vehicle HVAC systems where low noise is an important requirement.

A fluid pump includes a fluid pump inlet and a fluid pump outlet. A motor includes an armature and a stator such that the armature rotates about an axis. A pump section includes a pump section having a pumping element coupled to the armature such that rotation of the armature rotates the pumping element such that the pumping element pumps fluid from the fluid inlet to a pump section outlet of the pump section. A fluid passage within the fluid pump provides fluid communication from the pump section outlet to the fluid pump outlet such that the fluid passage is radially between the armature and the stator. The armature includes a surface of which faces toward the pump section and includes a plurality of recesses extending thereinto.

A grounding brush includes a wire extending along an arc, a plurality of conductive fibers each bent into a U-shape around the wire, and at least one support including a channel crimped about the fibers and wire to secure them to the channel. An assembly includes a mounting plate having an opening configured to surround a rotatable motor shaft having an axis of rotation, a plurality of tabs disposed in a circle around the periphery, each of the tabs extending axially from the first side of the mounting plate and radially toward the axis of rotation to define with an adjacent portion of the first side of the mounting plate a U-shaped bracket and a grounding brush mounted in the plurality of U-shaped brackets with the conductive fibers extending radially inward or outward. Also a method of mounting and adjusting the grounding brush in the assembly.

The present invention is provided with: a first housing; a second housing; a guide tube; a third housing; a motor part that is incorporated in the first housing; a screw shaft that is driven to rotate upon reception of the rotational force of a shaft of the motor part and applies power to the third housing; a bearing holder that is provided in the first housing; an inner flange that is provided in the second housing; an outer flange that is provided in the guide tube and that is arranged at a position where the outer flange overlaps the inner flange in an axial direction; a seal that is sandwiched between the inner and the outer flanges; and a coil spring (47) that is provided between the second housing (7) and the guide tube (48) and presses the inner flange (46) toward the outer flange (49) side.
