2. Squirrel-cage rotor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squirrel-cage_rotor

   Diagram of the squirrel-cage (showing only three laminations) The motor rotor shape is a cylinder mounted on a shaft. Internally it contains longitudinal conductive bars (usually made of aluminium or copper) set into grooves and connected at both ends by shorting rings forming a cage-like shape.

3. Wound rotor motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wound_rotor_motor

   The speed and torque characteristics of a wound-rotor motor can be adjusted by changing the external resistance, unlike a squirrel cage motor which has a fixed characteristic. This is useful for speed control of the motor. [1] A wound-rotor motor can be used in several forms of adjustable-speed drive. Common applications include hoists and ...

4. Induction motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_motor

   [a] An induction motor's rotor can be either wound type or squirrel-cage type. Three-phase squirrel-cage induction motors are widely used as industrial drives because they are self-starting, reliable, and economical. Single-phase induction motors are used extensively for smaller loads, such as garbage disposals and stationary power tools.

5. Cross-flow turbine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-flow_turbine

   A blade is made in a part-circular cross-section (pipe cut over its whole length). The ends of the blades are welded to disks to form a cage like a hamster cage and are sometimes called "squirrel cage turbines"; instead of the bars, the turbine has the trough-shaped steel blades. The water flows first from the outside of the turbine to its inside.

6. Dual-rotor motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual-rotor_motor

   A squirrel-cage rotor connected to the output shaft rotates within the stator at slightly less than the rotating field from the stator. Within the squirrel-cage rotor is a freely rotating permanent magnet rotor, which is locked in with rotating field from the stator. The effect of the inner rotor is to reenforce the field from the stator. [1]

7. Shaded-pole motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaded-pole_motor

   Squirrel-cage asynchronous: The most common type of shaded-pole motor in fractional horsepower use has a squirrel-cage rotor that consists of a laminated steel cylinder with conductive copper or aluminum bars embedded lengthwise in its surface, connected at the ends. Synchronous permamagnetized uses a magnetized rotor, e.g. a permanent magnet ...

9. Universal motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_motor

   Transformer action induced current into the rotor. Brush position relative to field poles meant that starting torque was developed by rotor repulsion from the field poles. A centrifugal mechanism, when close to running speed, connected all commutator bars together to create the equivalent of a squirrel-cage rotor.
