Abstract:
What is illustrated and described is a pump assembly (1) for a pump, particularly for a miniature pump, with an electric motor (2) and with a housing unit (3), wherein the electric motor (2) has a motor shaft (5) passing freely through a motor housing of the electric motor (2) and the motor housing is connected to the housing unit (3), and wherein the motor shaft (5) is supported in the motor housing with an axial shaft play. According to the invention, at least one stabilizing element (6, 13, 14, 16) arranged outside of the motor housing is provided in order to reduce or eliminate the axial play of the motor shaft (5), with an axial compressive force or axial tensile force acting on the motor shaft (3) being applied by the stabilizing element (6, 13, 14, 16) to the motor shaft (5).
