Abstract
Abstract The permanent magnet fields encircling the armature of a direct current motor are encircled by a pair of radially spaced cylindrical metal members separated by a cylindrical dielectric member. One of the metal members and one of the brushes that engages the commutator of the motor are grounded. The other brush and the other cylindrical metal member are connected to a direct current power supply, whereby a capacitor is formed by the three cylindrical members for suppressing radio frequency noise generated by sparking of the brushes at the commutator.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
123 words
A direct current permanent magnet field motor comprising an armature, permanent magnet fields encircling the armature and spaced therefrom, a commutator connected to one end of the armature for rotation therewith, a pair of brushes engaging the commutator, a pair of radially spaced substantially cylindrical metal members encircling said permanent magnet fields, a substantially cylindrical dielectric member between the two metal members, means for grounding one of said metal members and one of the brushes, and means for electrically connecting the other brush and the other metal member with a direct current power supply, whereby a capacitor is formed by said pair of metal members and said dielectric member for suppressing radio frequency noise generated by sparking of the brushes at said commutator.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
123 words
A direct current permanent magnet field motor comprising an armature, permanent magnet fields encircling the armature and spaced therefrom, a commutator connected to one end of the armature for rotation therewith, a pair of brushes engaging the commutator, a pair of radially spaced substantially cylindrical metal members encircling said permanent magnet fields, a substantially cylindrical dielectric member between the two metal members, means for grounding one of said metal members and one of the brushes, and means for electrically connecting the other brush and the other metal member with a direct current power supply, whereby a capacitor is formed by said pair of metal members and said dielectric member for suppressing radio frequency noise generated by sparking of the brushes at said commutator.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
28 words
A motor according to claim 1, in which one of said cylindrical metal members is the side of a metal case enclosing said permanent magnet fields and armature.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
16 words
A motor according to claim 2, in which it is said case that is grounded .
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
41 words
A motor according to claim 3, including a third substantially cylindrical metal member encircling said other cylindrical metal members, a substantially cylindrical dielectric member between said other metal member and third metal member, and means for grounding said third metal member.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
29 words
A motor according to claim 2, in which it is said case that is grounded, and said other metal member and dielectric member encircle the outside of the case.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
35 words
A motor according to claim 1, in which it is said case that is grounded, and said other metal member and dielectric member are mounted inside the case between it and said permanent magnet fields.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
25 words

Claim 9
Dependent Claim
57 words
A motor according to claim 1, in which said lastmentioned means includes a wire for electrically connecting said other brush to said direct current power supply, and a fusible link for electrically connecting said other metal member with the direct current power supply whereby a short in the capacitor will not affect the operation of the motor.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
75 words
A motor according to claim 1, in which the innermost cylindrical metal member is the case and it is grounded, said motor including a third substantially cylindrical metal member encircling said other cylindrical metal members, a substantially cylindrical dielectric member between said other metal members and third metal member, means electrically connecting said third metal member to said grounded brush, said other metal member being connected in series with said other brush and power supply.
