Abstract: A starter comprises a thermostat for detecting increases in the temperature of brushes and interrupting the energizing of the starter, and a heat conducting member secured to the thermostat for conducting the heat of one of the brushes, the heat conducting member being attached to the brush. The heat conducting member may also be formed integrally with a brush holder. The heat conducting member may additionally be secured to a bracket so as to hold a base therebetween. The heat conducting member may also be composed of a metallic material having superior thermal conductivity, and may be copper or brass. An electrically insulating sheet may be held between the brush holders and the base as heat insulating material for preventing the transfer of heat from the brushes to the base. An electrically insulating tube may also be interposed between the thermostat and a first leg of the heat conducting member.

Abstract: A starter comprises a thermostat for detecting increases in the temperature of the starter and interrupting the energizing of the starter, the thermostat being disposed in the vicinity of brushes and secured to a rear bracket. A holder for restricting relative displacement between the rear bracket and the thermostat and a connector electrically connected to the thermostat having an O-ring on the outer circumference thereof may also be provided. The thermostat and the connector may be integrated or disposed independently and connected by lead wires. The thermostat may be disposed on the perimeter of the brushes with its longitudinal direction parallel to the axial direction of an armature or between the brushes and the rear bracket with its longitudinal direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the armature.
