Title:
BRUSH HOLDER ASSEMBLIES AND METHODS FOR MOUNTING AND REPLACING BRUSHES
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2019088188
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide improved brush holder assemblies.SOLUTION: An assembly has a handle, a brush holder and a support that connect to and disconnect from each other using a locking mechanism. The handle reversibly connects to and disconnects from the brush holder. The locking mechanism includes a connecting member on the brush holder that attaches to the handle by interaction of a locking flange on the connecting member with a pair of teeth inside of the handle. Insertion of the support into the brush holder extends a post on the support through the connecting member to interact with the handle and enable disconnection of the handle from the brush holder when the support is fully engaged by the brush holder. The locking mechanism prevents the handle from releasing from the brush holder before the brush holder is completely seated on the support.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1A
