When the coil in the relay needs to run off an AC signal rather than DC. The shaded pole keeps the relay from "chattering" every time the AC current crosses 0v on the sine wave.

Small fans still use shaded pole motors. Record players, if you can still find them, used these types of motors.

What are some characteristics for a shaded pole motor?

The rotor is made up of laminated steel discs that are pressed on to a common shaft. This shaft has bearings mounted on either end which allows the rotor to spin within the frame of the motor. The shorting bars on the rotor are usually made of aluminium.


What motor does a food mixer use?

Most likely the motor will be a shaded pole induction motor. If the food mixer has a place for brushed on the side of the motor and are oppositely opposed to each other, then it would be a universal motor.


How can a shaded-pole motor be reversed?

Yes, the rotation of a shaded pole motor can be reversed. It is advisable to only attempt this on a small motor and if you have general mechanical and electrical knowledge. The simple and direct explanation is one has to flip the stator. To do this the motor must be disassembled to a point at which the rotor can be removed. Once removed, turn it end over end and reinstall. Done. Note that the bearing housing ends will likely have to be switched as well.
