Patent ID: 7839037

Claim:
An electric motor ( 10 ) for actuators in a motor vehicle, with an armature shaft ( 32 ), which is supported in a pole housing ( 18 ) that includes a jacket ( 20 ) and a bearing cover ( 26 , 28 ) on at least on one end face ( 22 , 24 ) for accommodating a bearing ( 30 ) for the armature shaft ( 32 ), wherein at least one radial recess ( 42 ) is formed in the pole housing ( 18 ) and configured to be engaged, once the pole housing ( 18 ) has been fully assembled, by at least one inwardly protruding radial fastening segment ( 53 ) of a transmission interface ( 15 ) in the pole housing ( 18 ), and to attach the electric motor ( 10 ) to the transmission interface ( 15 ), wherein upon radially inserting the electric motor ( 10 ) into a portion of a transmission housing ( 16 ), the inwardly protruding radial fastening segment ( 53 ) of the transmission housing ( 16 ) engages in the at least one radial recess in the pole housing ( 18 ) thereby attaching the electric motor ( 10 ) to the transmission interface ( 15 ), and wherein the at least one radial recess ( 42 ) is created using plastic cold reforming by impressing a wall section with a stamping tool.
