A brush holder for dynamo-electric machine has the following parts: a brush making sliding contact with the surface of a rotary collector; a stationary holder part fixed to the stationary part of the dynamo-electric machine opposite to the collector; and a detachable holder part detachably secured to the stationary holder part and holding the brush when separated from the stationary holder part, the detachable holder part being provided with a retainer that clamps the brush when the detachable holder part is separated from the stationary holder part and unclamps the brush when it is attached to the stationary holder part, the brush clamping portion and the portion of the retainer therearound being coated with a coating film of a material having a friction coefficient smaller than the material of the retainer. This arrangement obviates various unfavorable phenomena such as jumping of the brush, sparking on the sliding surface, cracking in the brush and so forth.
A brush holder for detachably holding a brush adapted to slide on the surface of a rotary electricity collector of a dynamo-electric machine, said brush holder having a stationary holder part stationarily fixed to the stationary part of said dynamo-electric machine, and a detachable holder part detachably secured to said stationary holder part for holding the brush after separation from said stationary holder part, said detachable holder part being provided with a retainer for clamping and retaining said brush when separated from said stationary holder part and for releasing said brush when attached to said stationary holder part, said retainer being constructed so as to be disposed near the sliding surface of the brush when the detachable holder part is secured to the stationary holder part, characterized by comprising a coating film coating the entire surface of the brush clamping portion and thereabout of said retainer and made of an electrically insulating material having a coefficient of friction smaller than that of the material of said retainer, whereby undesirable accumulations of powders on said retainer are avoided.
