Dynamo identification

[Howard Wright]

As I have been sorting Autojumble for the centenary event, for the sake of completeness, here are the two CAV DEL dynamos together:



The long armature is on the left and the short armature right. You may be able to make out the cylindrical case on the short armature is fabricated from two parts as well as the fabricated end cap. Production engineering was in its infancy in the late 1920's but someone worked out it was a lot cheaper to produce the later machine no doubt.

Hi Parazine

Does the two part case mean you can inspect and remove the distributor drive gear without disturbing the brushes?

Cheers
