Electrical rotating machine e.g. engine starter, for motor vehicle, has groove formed in outer circumference of protrusion of yoke to direct water penetrating into upper part of gap between pulley and yoke towards lowest part of yoke
摘要
<p>The machine has a cylindrical yoke (6), and a C shape gap (10) formed between opposite end walls of a flange of a pulley (4) and the yoke to permit the pulley to rotate. An open path communicates with a groove (13) at the level of its inner end. The groove is formed in an outer circumference of an annular protrusion (12) of the yoke to direct water penetrating into an upper part of the gap towards lowest part of the yoke.</p>
