BRUSHLESS MOTOR HAVING CAPACITORS MOUNTED ON SIDEWALL OF MOTOR HOUSING

摘要

An electronically commutated brushless motor (10) including a motor housing (14), a bulge (18) formed in a sidewall of the motor housing (14), and a capacitor (86) assembly housed in the bulge (18). The capacitor (86) assembly includes a capacitor printed circuit board (PCB) (94) having a plurality of longitudinal edges and at least one capacitor (86) mounted on the PCB. The bulge (18) includes a plurality of channels (116) located along an inside surface of a sidewall of the bulge, in which the longitudinal edges of the capacitor (86) are slideably inserted.
