Motor is a device that creates
motion, an engine; it usually refers to either an electrical motor or an
internal combustion engine. It may also refer to:
* Electric motor, a machine that converts electricity into a mechanical
motion
o AC motor, an electric motor that is driven by alternating current
+ Synchronous motor, an alternating current motor distinguished by a rotor
spinning with coils passing magnets at the same rate as the alternating
current and resulting magnetic field which drives it
+ Induction motor, also called a squirrel-cage motor, a type of asynchronous
alternating current motor where power is supplied to the rotating device by
means of electromagnetic induction
o DC motor, an electric motor that runs on direct current electricity
+ Brushed DC electric motor, an internally commutated electric motor
designed to be run from a direct current power source
+ Brushless DC motor, a synchronous electric motor which is powered by
direct current electricity and has an electronically controlled commutation
system, instead of a mechanical commutation system based on brushes
o Electrostatic motor, a type of electric motor based on the attraction and
repulsion of electric charge
o Servo motor, an electric motor that operates a servo, commonly used in
robotics
o Internal fan-cooled electric motor, an electric motor that is self-cooled
by a fan, typically used for motors with a high energy density
Other uses:
* Actuator, a mechanical device for moving or controlling a mechanism or
system
* Hydraulic motor, a machine that converts the energy of pressurized liquid
flow into mechanical motion
* Molecular motor, the agents of movement in living organisms
o Synthetic molecular motor, molecular machines capable of rotation under
energy input
* Motor language, extinct since the 1840s, a Uralic language that was spoken
in the northern region of the Sayan Mountains in Siberia
* Motor system, the physiological system that is responsible for physical
movement
o Motor neuron, neurons that originate in the spinal cord and synapse with
muscle fibers
o Motor skill, the ability of an organism to use the motor system
effectively
* Nanomotor, a molecular device capable of converting energy into movement
* Pneumatic motor, a machine that converts the energy of compressed air into
mechanical motion
* The Motors, a British pub rock/punk band, formed in 1977 by Nick Garvey,
Andy McMaster, Ricky Slaughter and Rob Hendry, who was replaced by Bram
Tchaikovsky the same year
