This invention develops an automated procedure which permits the settling of the axial play of a rotor using a stator sleeve pressed onto the rotor shaft and held in place during assembly by an insulating end disc which mates at an end face with the laminated rotor core, whereby assuring the smallest number of assembly steps. According to this invention, the insulating end disc is injection-moulded in one piece along with the spacer sleeve with an intermediate weak rated point in the form of either elastic or break-away intermediate segments which permit a relative setting motion between the insulating end disc which contacts the end face of the laminated rotor core, and the spacer sleeve pressed on the rotor shaft. This invention is particularly suitable for small commutator motors with rotor shafts mounted in sleeve bearings.

Device and procedure to adjust the axial play between the rotor and the

The object of the invention is to provide a means of limiting the axial play of a motor shaft while dispensing with the use of an adjustable stop screw that has to be secured separately after it has been set. In particular, and apparatus is provided that can be used with automated manipulators. For this purpose it is recommended, according to the invention, that as a stopping element a single piece disk of appropriate thickness or a single piece disk stamped parallel to the motor assembly machine out of strip material, with an axially stamped depression of appropriate depth, is to be inserted rigidly in a pocket fixed in the housing. The invention is particularly well-suited for application in small motors with a shaft mounted on plain bearings.
