Abstract:
A retaining device for an electric motor, in particular an electric motor for a blower, comprising a receiving housing that has a receiving opening, a motor housing of the electric motor extends into said receiving opening coaxially to a pivot axis of the motor, said motor housing protrudes with radial spacing at least partway, and includes at least three spaced-apart spring-elastic retaining elements, each of said retaining elements have one first end and one second end, in which the retaining elements (16), between the first end (17) and the second end (20), have at least one axial portion (19), which extends in a direction of the motor pivot axis (5), wherein the retaining elements are joined by their first ends to the motor housing and by their second ends to the receiving housing which allows a vibrational motion of the electric motor relative to the receiving housing, a stop element (28) limits the amplitude of a vibrational motion of the electric motor (1) relative to the receiving housing (9) in a region of each retaining element (16) on the receiving housing (9).
