Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a motor, said motor including a motor main body, an output arrangement secured to said motor main body, and a clutch arranged between said motor main body and said output arrangement, said motor main body including a rotatable shaft rotatably supported therein, said output arrangement including a housing and a worm shaft rotatably supported within said housing, said clutch transmitting rotation of said rotatable shaft to said worm shaft and preventing transmission of rotation of said worm shaft to said rotatable shaft, said method comprising steps of:installing said worm shaft and a driven-side rotator of said clutch in said housing of said output arrangement in such a manner that said worm shaft rotates integrally with said driven-side rotator of said clutch; installing a driving-side rotator of said clutch on said rotatable shaft in such a manner that said driving-side rotator rotates integrally with said rotatable shaft; and connecting said motor main body to said housing of said output arrangement in such a manner that said driving-side rotator is positioned in generally coaxial relationship with respect to said driven-side rotator and is drivingly engageable with said driven-side rotator.
