One of these motors wasexhibited at the Columbus convention, but although therehas been a great deal of speculation as to the constructionof these machines, information has only just been madepublic. The two smallest motors, namely, the 202 and the 204,are constructed with a split frame designed to allow thebottom part to be swung down into a pit for inspection orrenewal of parts. The largest motors are of the box frametype with large bored openings at each end through whichthe armature can be inserted or removed. The general con-struction of both types is similar to that employed in thest
