Electric machine

Abstract

An electric machine, e.g., an electric motor for a fan, and a method of manufacturing are disclosed. The electric machine includes a rotor that rotates in operation about an axis of rotation that is parallel to a motor axial direction, a stator extending in a motor circumferential direction, and a carrier extending radially with respect to the motor axial direction. The stator is attached to the carrier. At least one pin is arranged radially offset to the axis of rotation is fixed to the carrier and projects axially from the carrier. The stator is axially pressed onto the at least one pin so that the stator is attached to the at least one pin via a press fit and so that the press fit positions the stator relative to the carrier and fixes the stator to the carrier.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
