ABSTRACT:
The present invention refers to an electric motor including a tubular housing member and at least one cover secured thereto, said cover having an insertion area, which is inserted in the housing member in an essentially tight-fitting manner and which is connected to said housing member by means of at least one deformed portion of an end face area of said housing member. This kind of connection between the cover and the housing member is to be improved. This improvement is achieved by the features that the cover abuts on an end face of the housing member via a flange and that it has at least one opening in the transition region of the insertion area and the flange, said opening being accessible from outside via an access opening and forming an undercut portion at the insertion area, a respective portion of the end face area of the housing member being deformed into engagement with said undercut portion by moving the ram into said access opening, whereby the cover is locked in position on said housing member. One advantage of the present invention is to be seen in the fact that only the housing member has to be deformed for establishing the connection. In addition, the cover itself acts as a stop member so that the housing member can have a very simple structural design.
