Default For Any "Motor Expert"

Hello,

Not a motor expert, but just very curious, and would like to learn.

Have a home food blender. Works on regular wall outlet.

Motor has armature windings.
Also has field (stator) windings.

Also has a commutator.

What kind of a motor is this ?

Advantages of a motor like this compared to perhaps a regular ac
induction motor ?

Have never seen a commutator on an ac motor before.
Is there a rectifier hidden somewhere ?

Thanks,
Bob
