<p>A voltage regulator and brush assembly for an alternator has a body of the voltage regulator mounted on a housing of the brush assembly. A screw passes through an apertured flange at one end of the body of the voltage regulator and engages in a screw threaded hole in a recessed surface on the housing of the brush assembly. At the other end of the body of the voltage regulator there are provided two tongues which define a slot having an inwardly tapering free end. A recess facing the fixing screw is provided in the brush housing and the tongues engage in the recess so that the slot between the tongues abuts against a correspondingly shaped shoulder in the recess whereby when the screw is tightened the tongues engage in the recess with a wedging action which provides a firm, vibration-free connection between the voltage regulator and the brush housing.</p> |
