Motor for starter of internal combustion engine

Abstract

A motor used for a starter of an internal combustion engine includes a motor shaft; a slide bearing that rotatably supports the motor shaft; and a bearing support member that supports the slide bearing. The motor shaft includes a concave portion or a convex portion extending in a direction orthogonal to an axial direction, the concave portion and the convex portion each includes a first surface and a second surface which face each other and the slide bearing is configured to be divided into a plurality of sections in a circumferential direction or the axial direction of the motor, the slide bearing serves as a regulation member that regulates a deviation of the motor shaft in the axial direction by an engagement between the slide bearing with the concave portion or the convex portion.
