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.

What are some characteristics for a shaded pole motor?

A shaded pole motor is an induction motor with one power winding and no start capacitor. One of the poles on the laminations has a single-turn, short-circuited (heavy wire) winding, hence the term "shaded". This one-turn winding is a transformer. Since it is shorted, it creates high current and a phase change on that pole, causing the motor to be able to start and run.Small motors, such as used on small vent fans, are often shaded pole motors.


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.


Why won't my shaded pole motor run?

A shaded pole AC motor has a part of it's stator short circuited by a copper ring. When the flux in the main part of the stator increases, the flux through the copper ring with have a small delay, since it wants to keep its flux constant. Therefor you get a small rotational component to the field distribution, which makes the rotor turn.
