  • Publication number: 20230291283
    Abstract: An electric motor of a motor vehicle, in particular a steering motor, includes a housing having a motor compartment and an electronics compartment. The motor compartment and the electronics compartment are separated by a housing wall that has a plurality of openings. A stator is situated in the motor compartment and an electronics system is situated in the electronics compartment. The stator and the electronics system electrically contact one another through phase connections which project through the openings. A separating element is situated between the stator and the electronics system. The separating element at least partially covers the openings and the housing wall.

  • Publication number: 20230238853
    Abstract: An electric motor has a stator and a rotor which is arranged on a motor shaft in a rotationally fixed manner. The motor shaft is rotatably mounted about a rotational axis in at least one rolling bearing within a motor housing. The rolling bearing is arranged in a bearing shield in a bearing receiving area, the outer ring of the rolling bearing is pretensioned by a spring disc which sits in the bearing receiving area in a fixed manner to the housing, and the spring disc has an opening and a number of spring elements raised axially towards the outer ring in a disc body surrounding the opening.

  • Publication number: 20230208251
    Abstract: An electric motor contains a motor shaft which is arranged in a motor housing. The motor shaft is rotatably mounted about a rotational axis in at least one rolling or ball bearing, which sits in a bearing receiving area and contains an outer ring and an inner ring fixed to the motor shaft. The outer ring of the rolling bearing is pretensioned by a spring disc which sits in the bearing receiving area and has a number of wave trains with alternatingly axially projecting half wave trains, and the spring disc has a number of centering elements on the inner circumference. The centering elements rest against the motor shaft when the spring disc is untensioned and is arranged at a distance to the motor shaft when the spring disc is tensioned.

  • Publication number: 20230042306
    Abstract: A stator for an electric motor has a stator main body with stator teeth arranged in the form of a star and a stator yoke. The stator main body is formed with a number of axial grooves on an outer circumference. Spring elements are inserted into the axial grooves and the spring elements circumferentially protrude in the radial direction from the stator main body. The spring elements are introduced with a radial form-fit.
