Abstract:
Apparatus for use in applying wax to an object and/or polishing the object. The apparatus includes a housing, an electric motor positioned within the housing and an operating shaft driven by the motor. A generally disk-shaped pad holder has a hub connected to the operating shaft with a holder having a first surface facing the housing and a second surface facing away from the housing. The apparatus further includes a pad of sponge-like material carried by the holder and positioned against the second surface of the holder. The apparatus also includes a bonnet of cloth material positioned about the pad and having an elastic band adjacent its periphery for holding the pad to retain the bonnet in its installed position. The pad holder includes an annular lip adjacent the periphery of the holder with the lip extending towards the housing and radially outwardly so that the bonnet can in its installed condition engages the lip to locate the bonnet and limit its inward movement.
Disclosed is a rotary buffer pad assembly comprising a pan-like holder to the outer surfaces of which a resilient pad of foamed polyurethane is directly molded for better dynamic balance.
Direct Current Motor Assembly With Rectifier Module
A direct current motor assembly for connection to an alternating current power supply to drive an appliance. The assembly includes a tubular housing with an armature having windings positioned inside the housing. End closures are provided for both ends of the housing, with one of the closures having an aperture in which the body portion of a rectifier assembly is mounted. The rectifier assembly includes a pair of input terminals extending outside of the housing and a pair of output terminals positioned inside the housing so that direct current may be provided to the armature without any discrete electrical conductors extending through either the end closures or the housing.
