Abstract:
An electric motor comprising a first part and a second part which are rotatable with respect to each other about an axis of rotation, wherein the first part comprises a foil-shaped insulating substrate, on which a plurality of series-connected spiral-shaped patterns of conductor tracks are provided and which is bent as a circular-cylindrical body extending, seen in a direction parallel to the axis of rotation, between a first and a second imaginary end surface and being mounted on a carrier near the first end surface, and wherein the second part comprises a permanent magnet unit for generating a magnetic field at the location of the conductor tracks, said first part being provided with connector means for connecting said conductor tracks to an electrical energy source, characterized in that said connector means comprise a first connector element, which is provided on the substrate between the first and the second end surface near the first end surface and is electrically connected to the conductor tracks, and a second connector element, which is provided on the carrier and is electrically connected to the first connector element.
