Commutator is a device in a motor through which supply is fed.
The commutator is part of the armature on a DC motor and this assembly is the rotating element of a motor.
Vacuum cleaners require a high power to weight ratio in the motor and for that reason a commutator motor is used although the lifetime is relatively short for this type of motor before the brushes need replacing.
Commutator is a split ring which reverses the current .when the commutator turns around due to magnetic force and because of it even the current gets reversed
As a motor refers to the electric verison (petrol is an engine) the first commutator-type direct current electric motor capable of turning machinery was invented by the British scientist William Sturgeon in 1832

A commutator is an electrical switch that periodically reverses the current direction in an electric motor or electrical generator. A commutator is a common feature of direct current rotating machines.

I had a 28 volt motor armature and field rewired,it now turns the wrong way,the technician says it has the wrong commutator installed,,and cannot find a new one.
AC, its all done with coils- or electromagnets.
A commutator applies power to the best location on the rotor, and in a generator, picks off power similarly.

DC motors generally use commutators. Also some single phase AC motors use commutators. They are the type which which have their field windings connected in series with their armatures and they can typically be found in home vacuum cleaners, DIY-type ac electric drills, etc.
