  • Grommet unit and motor having such a unit
    Patent number: 4591747
    Abstract: A motor having two inner field cups in which the stator coils are placed, and outer cups which fit over the inner cups. The coil lead wires pass out through U-shaped openings in the inner and outer field cups, and are protected by an elongated grommet having first and second wire protecting portions which fit in respective openings. These portions are generally U-shaped when not constrained by external forces and are joined by an elongated center section. The grommet is manufactured of a flexible material to permit deformation of the legs of these portions upon pressing of the outer cups into place, to close around the wires.
