Bearing assembly for miniature electric motor

Abstract

Abstract The invention relates to a bearing arrangement (4) for electric motors, particularly external-rotor motors, at least one bearing element (6) being provided in order to bear a rotor such that it can rotate. This bearing element (6) is seated in a receptacle in a bearing retaining part (12) of a stator (2). The receptacle (10) in the bearing retaining part (12) is formed on the one hand by dimensionally stable sections (26) which position the bearing element (6) by resting against at least three circumferentially distributed points, and, on the other hand, by at least one section (28) which can be deformed elastically in the radial direction and holds the bearing element (6) by means of force-fitting contact. <IMAGE>
