Abstract
Abstract A direct-current micromotor is disclosed which comprises a rotor bearing a motor winding, the rotor being arranged for rotation between a core part and a mantle part of a stator structure. The core part comprises a permanent magnet and the mantle part is made of magnetically conductive material. The motor winding is fed through a commutator comprising a collector and associated brushes. At least a part of the surfaces of the stator facing the rotor winding are provided with an electrically conductive coating to reduce the height of the voltage peaks occuring during the commutation.
