  • Patent number: 12132372
    Abstract: A winding pack for a stator assembly of an electric motor, including a coil assembly having twelve coils arranged in three groups, each having four coils of a winding, which are interleaved circumferentially. Each group has two pairs of adjacent coils, between which two pairs of the other groups are positioned. All groups have an identical sequence of their winding direction. Each pair contains both winding directions, the order of which differs between the two pairs. The technical winding start coming from one of the terminal regions in the pair that is first when viewed in the circumferential direction and the technical winding end leading to one of the terminal regions in the second pair of the relevant group are located, in relation to the winding pack, at the end face and on the side of the relevant second coil of the pair facing the first coil of this pair.

  • Publication number: 20220224209
    Abstract: An electric motor includes a printed circuit board, a rotor which is mounted rotatably about an axis of rotation, and a stator circumferentially surrounded by the rotor. The stator includes stator teeth and coils wound around the stator teeth, the coils being made from a winding wire with winding wire ends. The stator is overmolded by an injection molding, and a plug assembly is made on an upper side of the stator by the injection molding. The plug assembly includes contacts overmolded by the injection molding and defining a plug connection of an external power supply connection on one side and making direct electrical contact with the printed circuit board on another side.

  • Patent number: 11309774
    Abstract: An electric motor includes a rotor rotatable about a rotation axis, and a stator that externally surrounds the rotor and includes a stator core and coils wound on the stator core. The windings are defined by a winding wire including winding wire end portions that are electrically contacted at end surfaces thereof by busbars held at least partially in a busbar holder, and include a ground contact to connect the stator to a ground potential. The ground contact includes a first end region received in a longitudinal groove on an outside of the stator core.

  • Publication number: 20210257891
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a motor shaft of an electric motor which is part of an actuator providing a rotary actuating movement of an actuator through a transmission, includes providing a cylindrical shaft blank including a second end and a second end portion extending from the second end. An outside diameter of the second end portion is greater than outside diameters of all remaining portions of the shaft. The method further includes forming a toothing into the second end portion, and grinding the toothing to size in a region spaced from the second end to define a bearing seat, an outside diameter of the bearing seat being less than an outside diameter of an engagement region of the toothing between the bearing seat and the second end.
