Patent number: 9948154Abstract: An electronically commutated DC motor has a stator wound with a multi-phase stator winding, a permanent magnet rotor mounted rotatably about a motor axis, a circuit board, a guide plate electrically connected to the winding and a housing component. In one implementation, a DC motor can easily be manufactured with the fewest possible process steps, which exhibits a short axial length and a low weight as well as good heat-dissipation properties. It is also an object of the invention to create a DC motor with integrated electronics, whose motor interior can be filled with oil, and which holds the electronics sealed against this oil. For reasons of logistics, an attempt is also made for partial components, such as the electronics, to be designed such that they are capable of complete prior assembly and testing.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2015Date of Patent: April 17, 2018Assignees: Buhler Motor GmbH, MELECS EWS GmbH & Co. KG, Swoboda KGInventors: Ralph Böhm, Georg Bernreuther, Olaf Richter, Andreas Wall, Leopold Hellinger, Gerhard Neumann, Armin Koch, Peter Woschni
