  • Patent number: 8026645
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electric drive, particularly a windshield wiper drive for vehicles, comprising an electric motor (10) in a crucible-shaped, preferably metal, motor housing (14), a gearbox housing (16) that is attached to the motor housing (14), and an arrangement for the interference suppression of the motor (10). According to the invention, at least one choke coil (46, 48) for the interference suppression of the motor (10) is disposed in the transition region from the motor housing (14) to the gearbox housing (16), wherein in this transition region means (36, 56) are provided in order to shield the filtered coil end (47, 49) projecting into the gearbox housing (16) from the interfering radiation produced by the motor (10).

  • Patent number: 6829815
    Abstract: Sheet-metal blanks for rotors or stators of electrical machines are cut from rolled sheet-metal strips with a magnetic preferential direction and layered to form a laminated rotor core or laminated stator core. To compensate largely for a magnetic anisotropy of the laminated rotor core or laminated stator core, the sheet-metal blanks, when they are not centrosymmetrical, are cut out together congruently in a single cutting operation, from rolled sheet-metal strips stacked one above the other and rotated relative to one another by an angle.
