Provided is a catalyst block for cleaning exhaust gas, having: a square-shaped honeycomb core provided with first-fourth outside surfaces; a first plate attached to the first outside surface; a second plate attached to the second outside surface; and an exterior frame disposed along the outer periphery of the firm and solid honeycomb core formed from the honeycomb core, the first plate and the second plate, the exterior frame being provided with a recessed part that at least encases the first plate, the second plate, the third outside surface and the fourth outside surface. In the catalyst block, a catalyst is supported in the honeycomb core, the first plate and the second plate, and the catalyst is not supported in the exterior frame.

A motor includes a case which has a containing portion in which a rotor is contained, a bracket which closes an opening of the containing portion, the bracket having a through hole, and a conductive elastic member which is provided in the through hole. The conductive elastic member urges a conductive wire against an inner face of the through hole so as to fix the conductive wire.

Motor

The present invention relates a vibration generating motor providing simple and fast assembly, and ready recycling. A motor includes a plurality of rotors around a rotary shaft, a plurality of coil winding portions on respective rotors, and a coil on each respective coil winding portion. At least a two part weight is positioned between selected coil winding portions and has an seperably upper and lower part, allowing weight maximization at low cost while conserving space.

A pair of C-shaped magnets are fitted to a resin holder and inserted as a unit into a cup-shaped motor case. The resin holder has a diameter that is slightly greater than the inside diameter of the motor case, but includes resilient elements that are compressible during insertion of the resin holder and the magnets. After insertion the resilient elements urge the resin holder and the magnets into frictional contact with the inside of the motor case, thereby retaining the magnets in place without the need for adhesive. A U-shaped groove in the resin holder is engaged by a positioning projection in the motor case to establish the rotational positioning of the resin holder and thereby the rotational positioning of the C-shaped magnets. A rotor is rotationally fixed in the motor case on a shaft which rotates in the motor case at one end and in a bracket covering the open end of the motor case at the other end.

Compact motor

A shield band, made from grain-oriented silicon metal, is wrapped about a case of a motor to reduce electromagnetic emissions. The case is protected by a strip of tape adhered to an outer surface of the case. The shield band is made by pressing a strip of metal against a strip of tape with an adhesive agent between them. The resulting strip is cut to length and curled around a roller to form a band which conforms to the outer perimeter of the small D.C. motor. A plate bridges the facing ends of the shield band.
