  2. Shaded-pole motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaded-pole_motor

    The shaded-pole motor is the original type of AC single-phase electric motor, dating back to at least as early as 1890. [1] A shaded-pole motor is a motor, in which the auxiliary winding is composed of a copper ring or bar surrounding a portion of each pole to produce a weakly rotating magnetic field . [ 2 ]

  3. AC motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_motor

    A capacitor start motor is a split-phase induction motor with a starting motor capacitor inserted in series with the startup winding, creating an LC circuit which produces a greater phase shift (and so, a much greater starting torque) than both split-phase and shaded pole motors. This motor has a centrifugal switch which disconnects the ...

  4. Induction motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_motor

    There are three basic types of small induction motors: split-phase single-phase, shaded-pole single-phase, and polyphase. In two-pole single-phase motors, the torque goes to zero at 100% slip (zero speed), so these require alterations to the stator such as shaded-poles to provide starting torque. A single phase induction motor requires separate ...

  5. Repulsion motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repulsion_motor

    A repulsion motor is a type of electric motor which runs on alternating current (AC). It was formerly used as a traction motor for electric trains (e.g. SR Class CP and SR Class SL electric multiple units) but has been superseded by other types of motors. [citation needed] Repulsion motors are classified as single phase motors.

  6. Shading coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shading_coil

    A shaded-pole motor is an AC single phase induction motor. Its includes an auxiliary winding composed of a copper ring called a shading ring (or shading coil with more than one turn). Its includes an auxiliary winding composed of a copper ring called a shading ring (or shading coil with more than one turn).

  7. Electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_motor

    An industrial electric motor . An electric motor is a machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of torque applied on the motor's shaft.

  8. Synchronous motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronous_motor

    Single-phase 60 Hz 1800 RPM synchronous motor for Teletype machine, non-excited rotor type, manufactured from 1930 to 1955. In non-excited motors, the rotor is made of steel. It rotates in step with the stator's rotating magnetic field, so it has an almost-constant magnetic field through it.

  9. Linear induction motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_induction_motor

    A linear induction motor (LIM) is an alternating current (AC), asynchronous linear motor that works by the same general principles as other induction motors but is typically designed to directly produce motion in a straight line. Characteristically, linear induction motors have a finite primary or secondary length, which generates end-effects ...
