Abstract: A small motor assembly is shown which requires little, if any, hand work for assembly. A terminal assembly is associated with the magnetic frame and held in place by the field coils. The terminations of the field coils are connected to selected terminals of the terminal assembly. An end bracket which supports an end bearing for the armature and brush holders is secured to the terminal assembly to provide a complete motor assembly. The brush holder is secured to the end bracket by a plurality of protuberances which mate with slots in the end bracket. The brush holder has formed thereon a projection which makes connection with a predetermined terminal on the terminal assembly when the end bracket is secured to the terminal assembly. The brush holder may be secured to the end bracket in a plurality of positions thereby causing its projection to make a connection with different predetermined terminals on the terminal assembly.

Abstract: A terminal board is provided for terminating the coil ends of a winding on an electric motor or other wound coil. The terminal board comprises a unitary structure which overlays the coil supporting structure. In a preferred embodiment, the terminal board will comprise supporting structure for multiple groups of terminals. A wing member joins together the supporting structure for each group of terminals to make a unitary terminal board. In a preferred embodiment, the terminal board is first retained in position by press fitting a boss on the underside of the terminal board into a mating hole in the supporting structure. The coils cooperate with a portion of the terminal board to provide a second retention means. The wing members comprise a thin wall structure which extends normal to the mounting plane and provides a barrier to retain the individual windings of the coils within a predetermined space. The terminals are not included on the terminal board structure when it is first mounted.
