Problems solved by technology

The disadvantage of using an AC motor with a variable speed drive is the high common mode voltage (CMV) generated by the variable speed drive, which increases the shaft induced current
Brush vibration, whatever its cause, can lead to unwanted sparks

Embodiment Construction

[0025] Referring now more particularly to the drawings and to FIG. 1 in particular, reference numeral 10 indicates a shaft current control brush ring arrangement according to the invention. The brush ring arrangement 10 is mounted on the motor 12 ( FIG. 2 ) and in particular on the faceplate 14 of the motor 12 for dissipating electrical charge that may accumulate on the shaft 16 of the motor 12 . It should be understood that the brush ring assembly 10 may be provided in a variety of different sizes for use in different types of electric machines and on shafts 16 of different diameters.

[0026] The brush ring assembly 10 is generally annular, surrounding an axis 16 . The brush ring assembly 10 is fixed to the panel 14 and is operably mounted between the spindle 16 and the panel 14 . The brush ring arrangement 10 operates continuously to remove charge that builds up on the motor shaft 16 during operation of the motor 12 by transferring the charge from the main shaft 16 to the ...
