Description: |
This double-commutator motor addresses a problem common to that type of device where a winding that happens to carry slightly more current will heat the brushes which causes lowered resistance and will then carry yet more current, and this positive feedback continues until the one winding carries nearly the entire load. The inventor adds auxiliary windings connected in a way to counteract this effect. |
