A fan frame includes a housing (), a supporting base () and a plurality of ribs () connecting the housing with the supporting base. One of the ribs includes a bottom wall (), and first and second lateral walls () extending from two opposite sides of the bottom wall, respectively. A receiving groove () is defined between the bottom wall and the lateral walls. A securing tab () extends from an outer end of the first lateral wall towards the second lateral wall. A securing finger () extends aslant from a free end of the tab towards the second lateral wall. A slot () is defined between the finger and the second lateral wall with a width thereof gradually decreased inwardly. The tab, the finger, the bottom wall and the first lateral wall cooperatively define a gap () therebetween for extension of power wires () of the fan.

An auto-focusing camera includes a lens mount (), a lens unit () and a motor. The lens unit includes a lens barrel () and a lens () received in the lens barrel. Tabs () and blocks () respectively extend outwardly from upper and lower end portions of the lens barrel. Each of the tabs forms an aslant guiding surface (), which is declined outwardly along a top-to-bottom direction. The motor includes a magnet () which is forced to move over the guiding surfaces to be securely sandwiched between the tabs and the blocks. Upper and lower yokes () are respectively arranged at the upper and lower sides of the magnet. Upper and lower coils () respectively wind around the two yokes for establishing magnetic fields which interact with the magnetic field of the permanent magnet to drive the lens unit into movement.

A mounting structure for a motor includes a tube and a stator. The tube includes at least an axial positioning block and at least a radial mounting block. The stator defines an axis hole for receiving a portion of the tube therein, and at least a positioning groove in an inner surface thereof. One of the stator and the tube is rotated from an unlock position, where the at least an axial positioning block is located just above the at least a positioning groove, to a locked position, where a bottom surface of the at least an axial positioning block abuts a top surface of the stator and the at least a radial mounting block engages with the inner surface of the stator.

A mounting structure for a motor includes a central tube (), a supporting plate () and a motor-stator (). The central tube includes two positioning blocks (). The supporting plate includes a mounting block (). The motor-stator includes a printed circuit board () and a stator (). The stator defines an axis hole () for receiving a portion of the tube therein and two positioning grooves () in an inner surface thereof. The printed circuit board defines a cutout () therein. One of the stator and the tube is rotated from an unlocked position, where the positioning blocks are located just above the positioning grooves and the mounting block is received in the cutout, to a locked position, where a bottom surface of the positioning blocks abut against a top surface of the stator and the mounting block leaves the cutout and engages with the printed circuit board.
