I believe if you want to be pedantic that a

(with an armature/rotor and a field/stator) mechanically coupled to a

dynamotor has a common field/stator (and possibly both armature
windings have to be wound on the same core).
Hence my term "unitized", which I thought to give the basic idea without
going into excessive detail on an obsolete device.
This is classiccmp. We 'do' obsolete devices here :-)
In connection with similar low-power high-voltage supplies, I could also
have mentioned vibrator-transformer supplies, run from DC battery, used
very often in lower-power tube gear, such as auto radios and even photo
strobe flash.
Indeed. I've never seen a photoflash using such a supply, but I have read
about them. One day I'll add one to my collection.
They were commonly used in car radios over here too.
The high-voltage DC was obtained from the transformer secondary by
either a traditional tube (very often cold cathode gas) rectifier, later
0Z4 IiIRC wa a common rectifier valve.
solid-state (selenium or silicon) or an additional set
of contacts on
the vibrator itself. Notorious for kicking up all sorts of RF noise.
The latter was known as a 'synchronous vibrator' (at least over here)
as the 2 sets of contacts were synchronised to (a) apply a pulse to one
end of the primary winding and (b) select the appropriate end of
the secondary which will have an high voltage pulse of the correct
polarity.
A mad friend of mine commented that a google search for a spare
part for his car radio directed him to an awful lot of 'adult' sites...
