Abstract: In an electric device, a cable-supporting element for receiving an electric supply cable is formed of two disengagably-connectable portions, of which the first portion is formed with an extension inserted into a hole of a respective shape, formed in the cover of the housing of the electric device. The first portion is then displaced relative to that hole so that a projection formed on the extension, overlaps an inner edge of the recess and engages the latter. The second portion provided with a filling piece is then set onto the first portion so that the filling piece fills, together with the remaining part of the extension, the hole. The first and second portions are then locked to each other.

Abstract: A brush holder assembly is designed so as to be prefabricated in automatic assembly machines. All the components of the assembly are located on a single side of an insulated carrier plate. The components are connected together by means of electrically conductive grommets which are fixed in the carrier plate. A vibration-resistant holder assembly is thus formed which can be assembled with less cost than other such assemblies which require hand labor.
