The
simplest of all motor types, they consist of two basic electrical
assemblies: a single bobbin wound stator and a die cast rotor assembly.
The auxiliary winding of the motor is provided by two coils of thick
copper wire looped around each pole face.
These shading
coils remain in circuit whilst the motor is running and oppose the
main winding flux, resulting in lower motor efficiency.
Starting torque
of this type of motor is influenced by the diameter of the shading
coil. Higher start torque usually means lower running performance,
and final design is usually a compromise between these two parameters.
The performance
characteristics of skeleton motors dictate that they are generally
used for air movement or liquid stirring duties. Their simple compact
construction, quiet operation and low cost make them ideally suited
for these applications
