Abstract: A motor housing (2) has a shaft section to receive a motor shaft (4) and a motor section to receive motor electronics (5) and motor windings (6). The shaft section and the motor section are separated from each other in a sealed manner by a separating pot (7) arranged in the motor housing (2). A metal ball bearing pot (8) with a ball bearing (9) is arranged in the separating pot. The ball bearing pot (8) lies indirectly against a motor housing section that is connected to the outer surroundings, via the separating pot (7). Thus, the motor housing functions as a cooling body. Accordingly, heat generated by the ball bearing (9) during operation is dissipated onto the motor housing and the outer surroundings, via the ball bearing pot (8) and the separating pot (7).

Abstract: An electric motor has a motor casing (2) which has a shaft portion for accommodating a motor shaft (4), and a motor portion for accommodating motor electronics (5) and motor windings (6). The shaft portion and the motor portion are separated from each other in a sealed manner by a can (7) in the motor casing (2). The can (7) has a metal ball bearing housing (8) in which a ball bearing (9) for mounting the motor shaft (4) is fastened, and wherein the ball bearing housing (8), indirectly via the can (7), adjoins, with an intermediate gap, a casing cover (3) that forms part of the motor casing (2). The casing cover (3) acts as a heat sink, and heat generated by the ball bearing (9) during operation is dissipated onto the casing cover and into the outer environment via the ball bearing housing (8) and the can (7).

Abstract: An electric motor (10) has: a stator (12) and a rotor (14) having a shaft (87). The rotor (14) has a sensor magnet (82) having a number SP of sensor poles (71, 72, 73, 74) for generating a predetermined distribution of the magnetic flux density, such that SP=2, 4, 6, 8, etc. The motor also has at least two rotor position sensors (450, 455, 460, 465) for generating rotor position signals (B_S1, B_S2) characterizing the magnetic flux density, the rotor position sensors (450, 455, 460, 465) being arranged in the region (30) of the circumference of the sensor magnet (82). The motor also has an evaluation apparatus (32) that ascertains, from the rotor position signals (B_S1, B_S2), an absolute value (phi_el, phi_mech) for the rotational position of the rotor (14). A method of generating an absolute value for the rotational position of an electric motor is likewise described.
