  • Patent number: 10069381
    Abstract: An electric motor includes a stator and a rotor. The stator includes a motor housing with an open end and an end cover mounted to the open end. The rotor includes a rotor shaft that extends through the end cover. The end cover includes a bearing that supports the rotor shaft. The rotor shaft and motor housing are made of an electrically conductive material and are electrically connected with each other. The motor housing, end cover, bearing and rotor shaft cooperatively form an electromagnetic shield suppressing electromagnetic interference generated by the motor. Optionally, the rotor shaft drives a coaxial worm shaft of a gearbox by an insulating member, which further suppresses electromagnetic interference.

  • Patent number: 9935414
    Abstract: A commutator has a conductive layer, a segment layer and an insulating layer separating the conductive layer and the segment layer. The segment layer includes multiple commutator segments. A mounting hole is defined along an axis of the commutator passing through the conductive layer. The three-layer structure of the commutator forms a capacitor having an increased confronting area and reduced inter-plate distance. The capacitor thus has a greater capacitance and hence greater EMI absorbing capability, making it possible to reduce EMI emissions without additional EMI reduction components outside the commutator. A rotor and a motor employing the commutator are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20150318766
    Abstract: A motor includes motor terminals for connecting with an external power supply and an internal circuit connected to the motor terminals. The motor further includes a RF filter. The RF filter includes a conductive wire coiled in either a helical manner or a spiral manner. Terminals of the conductive wire at opposite axial ends of the coil are connected to a corresponding one of the motor terminals and the internal circuit, respectively. The intensity of the electromagnetic waves radiated from most parts of the conductive wire of the RF filter is attenuated by reflected electromagnetic waves from other parts of the conductive wire. Therefore, the intensity of the electromagnetic wave radiated from the motor is greatly reduced. A RF filter for the motor is also provided.
