No special hoist-ing apparatus is required, however, because the forms areremoved in sections. INTERFOLE DIRECT-CURRENT MOTOR The Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Companyhas announced a new direct-current motor for generalpower service, called Type SK. One of its strongestfeatures is the excellent commutation, which is obtainedpartly by the use of interpoles and partly by the care-ful design of the commutator, brushes and brush hold-ers. Other important characteristics are the large dust-proof bearings and the efficiency of the oiling oil rings keep the bearing surfaces well lubricatedwhenever the motor is in operation, but the oil cannotleak or be thrown out of the oil well. The motor frame is of a new design. It is a ring ofopen-hearth steel made by hot-rolling the slab into shape. Interpole Stationary Motor and welding the ends together. The armature is sowound that wide spaces are left between the ends of thecoils and ample ventilating ducts are provided in thecore. The coils are form wound, laid in open slots andheld by fiber wedges and bands. The shaft can be pressedout without disturbing the armature windings and com- 246 ELECTRIC RAILWAY JOURNAL.
