- An axis X of the support plate 12 corresponds to the axis of the holder.
- the support plate 12 is a one-piece piece comprising a metal plate 121 and overmolded layers 122 on either side of the metal plate 121 (see Figure 2).
- the layers 122 are made of a plastic material ensuring good electrical insulation.
- the support plate 12 and the cages 13 that it carries are fixed on a cover (not shown) forming a rear bearing for the rotor shaft of the electric machine.
- the central portion of the plate 12 has an opening allowing the passage of an electric machine rotor collector.
- Each brush 15 is slidably mounted inside a cage 13 which is open on the X-axis side to allow electrical contact of the brushes 15 with blades carried by the collector.
- the brushes 15 have alternating polarities.
- the brushes 15 of positive polarity are electrically connected, via their respective braid 19, to an inter-brush connector 20 which is also electrically connected to the supply wire from the contactor starter.
- the inter-brush connector 20 is connected to the supply wire via a pin 21 passing through a grommet 22 cooperating with the starter casing to seal the brush holder 10.
- the positive brushes 15 and their corresponding cages 13 are electrically isolated from the negative polarity for proper operation of the starter. This insulation is obtained by the overmolded layers 122.
- the Flexible braids 19 are advantageously made of copper or copper alloy to facilitate welding. Furthermore, the brushes 15 of negative polarity for the current return are electrically connected to the mass of the machine by means of their respective braid 19 welded to the plate 121 of the plate 12.
- each cage 13 has a housing 23 for the brush 15 delimited by two side walls 26, 27 vis-à-vis interconnected by a wall 28 of upper connection.
- Each cage 13 may for example be obtained by folding a plate of thin sheet so as to form substantially an omega whose end branches are fixed on the plate 12 via fastening means 30 visible in Figure 2.
- the means of fixing 30 may include legs inserted in the corresponding holes of the plate 12 and folded towards each other against the plate 12.
- the fastening means 30 comprise rivets.
- the production of metal cages 13 makes it possible to better control the dimensions of the cage.
- the cages 13 are made of a plastic material. To increase the rigidity of the cages 13, the latter may be provided with fins 45 extending on either side of the open face located on the collector side.
- each spring 36 associated with each cage 13 radially biases the corresponding blade 15 towards the contact blades of the collector.
- each spring 36 comprises a wound portion 37 formed by a plurality of turns which is mounted around a tab 38, and an arm 39 resting against a face of the brush 15 opposite the face in contact with the collector blades.
