This terminated electric wire is composed of a loop at the tip and stranded wires extending from a base portion of the loop. At a molten portion of the base portion of the loop, two stranded wires cross each other, and the stranded wires are fused so that strands constituting the stranded wires are fixed together and integrated. In diffusion-bonded portions on both sides of the base portion of the loop, the strands are diffusion-bonded to each other while maintaining the shape of the strands. In the part from the tip of the loop to the front of the diffusion-bonded portions, the strands of the stranded wires are independent from each other and are not bonded to each other. Further, the inner peripheral surface of the loop is smoothly curved at the base portion of the loop and has no recess into the stranded wires. The absence of the recess makes loosening less likely when attached to a mating material. Since the entire circumference of the loop is not melted, the loop can be formed using a small welding current.

This sintered graphite bearing is cylindrical and comprises 60-84 mass% of spherical graphite, 5-22 mass% of amorphous carbon having an average particle diameter larger than that of the spherical graphite, and a resin carbide. When a sliding surface of the graphite sintered body is observed through an electron microscope, the occupied area ratio of the amorphous carbon is 3-20%. The amorphous carbon is larger in size than the spherical graphite, protrudes from the sliding surface of the bearing, and comes into point contact with a sliding counterpart to support sliding. The hardness of the bearing is high due to containing the spherical graphite as a main component, which makes it difficult for the amorphous carbon to fall off.
According to the present invention, the proportions of copper and carbon in a carbon brush are set such that the proportion of copper is 20-60 mass% and the total proportion of carbons including graphite and a carbon derived from a binder resin is 80-40 mass%. With respect to the RGB value obtained by taking an image of the brush surface in an unpolished state, the red component is 135 to 200 (inclusive), and the value ∆ obtained by subtracting the blue component from the red component of the RGB value is 35 to 100 (inclusive). This brush can achieve high conductivity even if the copper content is low.

A carbon grounding brush has a sliding surface that slides on and grounds a driving shaft transmitting driving force and exposed to an insulating liquid. A slit is provided on the sliding surface, and at least one end of the slit is located on one side of the sliding surface. The slit introduces into the slit the insulating liquid pressed towards the sliding surface by the rotation of the driving shaft and discharges the insulating liquid from the one end of the slit. Thus, the contact resistance between the driving shaft and the sliding surface is made small, and electrical corrosion and electromagnetic noises are reduced.

This carbon grounding brush is in sliding contact, at a sliding-contact surface, with a rotating shaft for drive power transmission that is soaked in an insulating liquid. A slit is provided in the sliding-contact surface, and at least one end of the slit is located at one edge of the sliding-contact surface. The insulating liquid, which is pressed in toward the sliding-contact surface by the rotation of the rotating shaft, is guided into the slit and escapes from one end of the slit. The insulating liquid, which is pressed in toward the sliding-contact surface of the brush by the rotating shaft, can escape through the slit. Thus, contact resistance between the rotating shaft and the sliding-contact surface is reduced, and the occurrence of electrolytic corrosion, electromagnetic noise, and the like can also be suppressed.
