armatures, plural;
  1. The rotating coil or coils of a dynamo or electric motor

  2. Any moving part of an electrical machine in which a voltage is induced by a magnetic field

  3. A piece of iron or other object acting as a keeper for a magnet

  4. A metal framework on which a sculpture is molded with clay or similar material

  5. A framework or formal structure, esp. of a literary work
    • - Shakespeare's plots have served as the armature for many novels
  6. The protective covering of an animal or plant

  7. Armor


  1. coil in which voltage is induced by motion through a magnetic field
  2. An armature is the name of the kinematic chains used in computer animation to simulate the motions of virtual human or animal characters. In the context of animation, the inverse kinematics of the armature is the most relevant computational algorithm.
  3. In electrical engineering, an armature generally refers to one of the two principal electrical components of an electromechanical machine- a motor or generator, but may also mean the pole piece of a permanent magnet or electromagnet, or the moving iron part of a solenoid or relay. ...
  4. In sculpture, an armature is a framework around which the sculpture is built. This framework provides structure and stability, especially when a plastic material such as wax or clay is being used as the medium. ...
  5. The rotating part of an electric motor or dynamo, which mostly consists of coils of wire around a metal core; The moving part in an electromechanical device like a loudspeaker or a buzzer; A piece of soft steel or iron that connects the poles of a magnet; A supporting framework in a sculpture; A ...
  6. A metal divisional bar or bars making a framework for supporting stained glass, usually fixed into a wall. Also used within concrete for strengthening.
  7. The internal support structure for a master sculpture for a model kit. It can be as simple as a wire "skeleton" inside the clay, or it can incorporate other materials such as aluminum foil and epoxy putty. The armature supports the clay to prevent sagging and cracking.
  8. The armature of an AC generator is the assembly of windings and metal core laminations in which the output voltage is induced. It is the stationary part (stator) in a revolving-field generator.
  9. The rotating part of a brush type direct current (DC) motor. In an induction motor, the rotating part is called a rotor.
  10. A rigid framework serving as a supporting inner core for clay or other soft sculpting material.
  11. The moving part of an alternator, generator or motor. In many PM alternator designs, it carries the magnets and is attached to the blades and hub. Also called a Rotor.
  12. A metal structural support for a rigid projecting sign. The armature may support the bracket sign by means of one or two projecting arms.
  13. basic structure on which to build a sculpture.
  14. A support for clay sculpture. For mask making and special make-up effects, a head form is used to support the clay and to ensure a proper fit for the finished mask or appliance.
  15. In a Relay, Regulator, Horn, etc., it is the movable part of the unit which indicates the presence of electric current as the agent of actuation. ...
  16. This is the thing inside your motor that spins. You will find your pinion gear on one end, and occasionally, a comm. cooler on the other end. Its main components consist of the shaft, the comutator, the wires and the stacks.
  17. support, frame or structure upon or around which a sculptural form may be built: the armature for a single sculpture may be constructed out of many different materials such as metal, wood, or plastic, sometimes with small pieces suspended from wires (called papillons)
  18. The framework used to support a piece when sculpting.
  19. An internal support to hold the outer covering of a sculpture; may be made of various materials such as wood, wax, steel, but generally almaloy or aluminum wire.
  20. The revolving part of an electric motor.
  21. A skeletal structure which supports the doll. Usually wood or wire.
  22. The iron, bronze or wood framework fixed in a window opening to support panels of stained glass.
  23. The part of the central vacuum motor that rotates, and on the end of which vacuum fans are mounted. A quality armature is mounted on ball bearings, and protected from incoming vacuum air that has been heated and dirtied.
  24. A skeleton or framework on which clay pieces are built to give support and reduce the amount of clay volume inside. Paper, wire, aluminum foil are some items used.
  25. Metal part moved by magnetization in the armature system
