Abstract
A dynamo assembly comprising a stator assembly and rotor assembly as shown. The preferred rotor assembly comprises two end caps, a single wire strand, a collector ring assembly and a plurality of laminants. The two end caps are preferably identical to one another, and oriented with the wire wrapped in two coils therearound. The laminants are supported between the two and caps, in a skewed manner. An advantageous arrangement for engagement between the collector ring assembly and wire held on the end caps is provided. A unique method of molding the collector ring assembly without internal inserts is also disclosed.
