A speed control apparatus for a direct current motor comprises a bridge circuit having an armature in one side thereof, a direct current voltage source, and a series connection of a switching transistor and an inductor inserted between the direct current voltage source and the bridge circuit. A detecting transistor detects an unbalanced voltage of the bridge circuit and control transistors are responsive to the detection to control the switching transistor to be turned on or off. The inductor stores a magnetic energy when the switching transistor is turned on and supplies an electromotive force induced by the stored magnetic energy to the bridge circuit when the switching transistor is turned off. To that end, a diode or a transistor cooperates with the inductor and the bridge circuit to constitute a closed loop. A capacitor is connected in parallel with the armature, thereby to restrict the operation of the detecting transistor and thus the on/off-period of the switching transistor.
