1. A motor brush assembly, comprising:

  • a stamped and formed lead frame including a large central aperture, plate sections for engagement with respective metal brush holders, pairs of first electrical terminals, and a pair of second electrical terminals each having conductor-connecting means for electrical connection with power wires, one of each pair of said first terminals being electrically connected to a respective said plate section and the other of each pair of said first terminals being electrically connected to a ground contact extending outwardly from said lead frame, said lead frame having first severable sections between the terminals of each said pair of first terminals;

    a dielectric housing member secured onto said lead frame with conductor-connecting means of said first and second terminals extending outwardly from said housing member for electrical connection to respective said leads, said housing member having a circular wall around said large central aperture of said lead frame defining a central opening, and said housing member having first openings exposing said first severable sections;

    said metal brush holders disposed in brush holder channels on said housing member and having integral lug sections secured to respective said plate sections in electrical engagement therewith, and including brush-receiving sections in communication with said central opening; and

    capacitors having leads electrically connected to conductor-connecting means of respective said pairs of first electrical terminals to provide noise suppression, said ground contact extending outwardly from said housing member, and said first severable sections being severed thereby separating said lead frame into separate electrical sections.
