This study aims at the reduction of noises which are thought to occur mainly in the power windowmotor. The noise characteristics are obtained by using a model whose scale is 1.5 times of the actual one. In the experiments, the authors selected such parameters as number of slit, brushforces acting on a commutator and the surface roughness. From the view point of measures aiming at the reduction of the noise, the author may conclude that (1)the number of slit should be even, (2)the surface of the commutator be smooth, and (3)the deflection of the spring due to brushforces be large, that is, the spring must be flexible.
