A motor with a hollow housing with an open mouth defined by a side wall, and a cover for its mouth, an electrical motor circuit and power conductors electrically connected to the circuit at one end and adapted to be connected to a source of power at another end, has, when it is assembled, a current supply connecter receptacle. The housing has integral with it, a housing receptacle part with conductor-receiving seats in which the power conductors are seated. The cover has a cover receptacle part integral with the cover. The cover is latched into position, closing the housing mouth and completing the receptacle, by at least one deflectable finger, one end of which is integral with one of the cover and housing and a free end of which is provided with a latching lip, and a complementary ledge integral with the other of the housing and cover, the ledge being spaced and shaped to receive and be engaged by the lip. Provision is made for permitting the lip to be displaced from the ledge to free the cover. Preferably, two fingers, both integral with the cover, are provided, ledges being formed on the housing receptacle part.

A bracket for mounting a motor which drives a fan in a dehumidifier or the like includes two or more arms secured directly to the motor's housing. The bracket includes a rib which spans nearly the full length of an extender of the arm and gussets at the various junctions of the arm. The use of the rib and gussets in the arm substantially isolates motor vibration and reduces imbalance of the impeller and/or the driven component.

This invention relates to a dynamoelectric machine having a stator and rotor with the latter including a hollow shaft extending from the body of the rotor and with the rotor shaft being journalled by bearings carried by the end shields or bearings supports of the dynamoelectric machine. A tubular wire way extends through the hollow rotor shaft and is stationarily secured to the stator. Specifically, an opening is provided in one of the end shields for threadably receiving the wire way and the end of this wire way protrudes beyond the one end shield. A locking nut is threadably received on the end of the wire way protruding beyond the end shield so as to lock the wire way with respect to the end shield.
