A commutator for an electric machine comprises a support member made from
insulating molding compound, a plurality of metal conductor segments (3),
disposed thereon in evenly spaced manner around the commutator axis, with
terminal elements disposed thereon for a rotor winding, and an
interference-suppression device, to which the conductor segments are
connected in electrically conductive manner. This
interference-suppression device comprises a number, corresponding to the
number of conductor segments (3), of individual interference-suppression
elements (10') disposed around the commutator axis, and an equally large
number of contact bridges (11'), each of which connects two mutually
adjacent interference-suppression elements (10') to one another in
electrically conductive manner, the contact bridges (11') each being
provided with two inwardly directed legs (20'), which are flexible
relative to one another in circumferential direction and are connected to
the two associated interference-suppression elements in electrically
conductive manner, and with one outwardly directed foot portion (21'),
which is connected to the associated conductor segment in electrically
conductive manner.
