Pictures?
Dimensions?

I have some Maxon Swiss gearmotors but never found a data sheet on the exact ones. What I suspect is that the ones I have, and maybe the ones you have, were custom order by a manufacturer of some device. These then ended up on the surplus market.
There is a large variety of Maxon motors on Ebay. Did you look there? Does any look like the ones you have?

Maxon (and other motor companies) often make customized versions of their motors for particular use cases.
Maxon is a high-quality brand, so the motors should perform well.
You might want to measure the sizes and diameters, and also the winding resistance, of those motors, and compare to the catalog information for stock Maxon motors, to see what base design of motor you're likely dealing with.
