A motor according to an embodiment includes a commutator provided to a rotation shaft, a brush in contact with the commutator, a bracket having a wall surface opposing the brush, and a deformable portion in contact with the brush and the wall surface. The bracket includes a protrusion provided on the commutator side with respect to the deformable portion. The protrusion protrudes from the wall surface toward the brush.

This motor includes a yoke, an armature, a brush holder and a ground member. The yoke has the shape of a bottomed cylinder that has an inner surface to which a magnet is affixed. The armature is contained within the yoke. The brush holder is arranged in an opening of the yoke, and holds a feed brush for supplying an electric current to the armature, and a bearing that axially supports a rotary shaft of the armature. The ground member is in contact with the bearing and the yoke. The ground member is affixed to a ground terminal that is held by the brush holder.

An externally excited electric machine comprises a rotor as well as a contact device having at least one sliding contact element positioned against a contact segment of the rotor for transmitting an exciter current, wherein the sliding contact element is integrated in an electromagnetic actuator, by which it can be controlled to move between a position lying against the contact segment and a position spaced apart from it.

The present invention provides a shunt series wound direct-current (DC) motor driving device and electric equipment. The shunt series wound DC motor driving device provided by the present invention includes: a shunt series wound DC motor; a DC power supply; and a chopper, wherein the chopper comprises m chopping units, a control signal comprises m unit control signals that respectively correspond to the m chopping units and are formed according to a preset phase stagger rule; each of unit control signals comprises w switching control signals corresponding to w switching control ends in the corresponding chopping units; the m first power output ends of all the chopping units and the m second power output ends of all the chopping units respectively correspondingly form m pairs of power output terminals; the m pairs of external terminals of the shunt series wound DC motor are connected with the m pairs of power output terminals in a one-to-one correspondence manner, wherein m is a positive integer that is not less than 2, and w is 1, 2 or 4.

A pump comprising a lower housing, a diaphragm assembly, an upper housing, a valve housing, and an o-ring is provided. The diaphragm assembly is positioned adjacent to the lower housing. The upper housing is positioned adjacent to the diaphragm assembly and includes an inlet chamber and an outlet chamber separated by a ring. The valve housing is positioned between the upper housing and the diaphragm assembly, encloses the inlet chamber and the outlet chamber, and includes a cutout in contact with the ring. The ring includes raised outer walls to receive the cutout and the o-ring is positioned between the raised outer walls of the ring and secured between the raised outer walls by the cutout.

An embodiment of the present invention relates to a cover assembly and a motor comprising same, the cover assembly comprising: a cover plate; a ground terminal disposed on the cover plate; and a capacitor connected to the ground terminal by means of a wire. The ground terminal comprises: a body unit; a ground unit bent from one area of the upper end of the body unit to a first direction; clip units extending from both sides of the body unit to a second direction which is opposite from the first direction; and a coupling unit extending from the lower part of the body unit. The wire is coupled to the clip units by means of insertion. Accordingly, the present invention enables the wire of the capacitor to be fixed in a temporarily assembled state and thus enables an automation process during assembly of the motor.
