It is preferable that the casing be enclosed within a casing 6 and supported by a airtight at all points other than the openings 12 base 7. The armature of the motor is carried by and 23 to insure that the cooling air forced into the shaft 8 which is journalled in bearings, such the casing by the element 141516 will travel as 9, at opposite ends of the casing and projects the full length of the casing and pass over all of 40 therethrough at both ends.

The cleaned air passes over the portion 13 of the plate 11, through the openings 12 into the motor casing and travels through the casing, passing over and cooling the brushes, commutator, field coils and armature, and is discharged from the casing through the openings 23.
Referring to the modification shown in Figure 3, it will be seen that the plate 25 which closes the end of the casing 6, and which may be integral with the cylindrical portion thereof, differs from the plate 11 in having an annular central portion 26 which carries the bearing 9 extending outwardly of the casing beyond the plane of the outer portion of the plate 25. The plate 25 is provided with arcuate air intake openings 27 similar to the openings 12 shown in Figs. 1 and 2 and bounded on their inner sides by the portion 26 and on their outer sides by the marginal portion 28 of the plate. To the end portion of the shaft 8, which projects through the annular portion 26 of the plate 25, is fixed, so as to rotate therewith, a hub 29 carrying on its inner end adjacent the part 26 an integrally formed, circular plate 30 which extends radially beyond the outer sides of the openings 27. On the outer surface of the plate 30 and perpendicular thereto are fixed blades 31 which extend from the hub 29 radially outward beyond the circumference of the plate 30 and overlap the portion 28 of the plate 25 for a considerable distance. The blades 31 are quite narrow adjacent the hub 29, gradually increase in width up to the point C, whence, to substantially the circumference of the plate 30, they are of uniform width. Beyond the circumference of the plate, the outer edges of the blades are inclined rearwardly while the inner or rear edges are each provided with an integral rearwardly projecting extension 31a outward of the openings 27 and extending into close proximity to the portion 28 of the plate 25.
The blades 31 and the outer end of the shaft 8 are enclosed in a housing 33, whose side walls rest and are secured in a rabbet 34 in the end of the cylindrical portion of the casing 6. The outer end of the housing is shaped to follow closely the contour of the outer edges of the blades, as shown in the drawing, except at the center where an opening 35 coaxial with the shaft 8 and covered by a screen 36 is provided. As can be seen from the drawing, a channel-shaped, circum; ferential groove 37 into which the extremities and the portions 310. of the blades project, is formed between the inclined portion and the side wall of the housing and the portion 28 of the plate 25. In the wall of the housing and opposite the portions 31a of the blades, there are provided one or more dirt discharge openings 38.
In its end opposite the plate 25, the casing is provided with openings for the discharge of the air therefrom. It is preferable that the casing be airtight at all points other than these discharge openings and the intake openings 27 although this is not absolutely necessary for the reason given in connection with the description of the modification of my invention shown in Figures 1 and 2.
As the modification of my invention shown in Figure 3 operates similarly to that shown in Figms 1 and 2, a separate detailed description of its operation will not be necessary. It will be noted, however, that the fact that the plate 30 and the portion 28 of the plate 25 overlap will cause the air to take a sharper turn in passing into the openings 2'1 which will result in a better separation of the dirt from the air. The main portions of the blades 31 are spaced outwardly from the central portion of the plate 25 to provide a sufficiently large space 39 for the air to pass from the groove 37 to the openings 2'7.
Since the blades 16 and 31 are perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the shaft 8, my combined air cleaning and impelling apparatus will operate equally efficiently upon rotation of the armature shaft in either direction.
Although I have shown and described my combined air cleaning and ventilating apparatus as applied to an electric motor of the interiorly ventilated type, it is not limited to such a restricted use, but can also be used on electric motors of the exteriorly ventilated type and on electric generators, rotary converters and similar machines of either the interiorly or the exteriorly ventilated type. It can furthermore also be used in many other connections where simple, efficient air cleaning and ventilating apparatus is needed.
It is not necessary that the air discharge openings in the motor casing be positioned in the end opposite to that having the intake openings. It may be desirable in some instances to position them in the sides of the casing or in both the sides and the end.
