ABSTRACT:
A structured product family of dynamoelectric machines for use in a plurality of applications has a frame with a closed end, and a set of permanent magnets is adhesively secured within the frame. An armature disposed in the frame for interaction with the permanent magnets includes a shaft, a core having a set of winding receiving slots therein, and a commutator. During manufacturing and assembly, stress on the motor shaft and commutator is minimized. A brush plate is associated with the frame for locating a set of brushes relative to the commutator, and an end shield is secured to the frame opposite its closed end. At least one freely aligning bearing assembly disposed in the end shield for freely aligning the shaft and including a bearing and a retainer having predetermined conditions preset with the retainer being adhesively secured to the end shield. A bracket is adhesively secured to the frame for connecting the dynamoelectric machine in anyone of the applications; and a novel brush assembly is provided. Specifically, four members attached to the brush boxes are inserted through the D slots and are then crimped so that minimum stress is introduced into the brush plate. The armature commutator is first rough finished, the armature is then balanced and the commutator surface is final finished last prior to assembly into the frame. The motor has a relatively stiff end shield having a freely aligning bearing adhesively connected therein. The freely-aligning bearing has a predetermined set of conditions preset and held therein by an adhesive. These predetermined conditions are repeatedly duplicated in a plurality of end shields. An axial vibration reduction means which comprises in part a thrust compensation system is operative to bias the armature toward the bearing means in the frame and thus reduce the noise generated by the axial movement of the armature. A mounting flange is adhesively connected to the frame.
Also disclosed are methods of assembling various subcomponents such as the commutator to the shaft, the magnets to the frame and the freely-aligning bearing means in the frame and end shield sockets.
