ABSTRACT:
A dynamoelectric machine has a stator end cap mounted on a stator core, which attaches a control circuit board directly onto the stator. The end cap has integrally formed fingers which permit snap on connection of the circuit board. Guide pins make certain the circuit board is oriented properly upon connection to the end cap. The end cap also has wire fixtures which hold winding leads of a winding and permit insulation displacement terminals on the circuit board to plug into the winding leads and achieve electrical contact at the same time the circuit board is mounted on the end cap. Hall devices mounted onto the circuit board are guided into pockets formed on teeth of the stator end cap for precise location. The end cap is constructed to shield the winding from contact with the motor shell. In addition, backward curved fans are employed to reduce mechanical noise in the direction of high speed rotation.
