Abstract
A bearing/stator set retainer structure includes a base seat, a stator set and a retainer member. The base seat has a bearing cup having an internal bearing hole in which a bearing is disposed. The stator set is assembled on the base seat and has an abutment section on one side distal from the base seat. The retainer member has at least one latch section for fixedly assembling the retainer member on the bearing cup. The retainer member further has at least one protrusion section in abutment with the abutment section and at least one inner flange section in abutment with the bearing. Accordingly, the retainer member can be easily disassembled from and reassembled with the bearing cup to facilitate reworking. Also, the retainer member is able to fix the bearing and the stator set at the same time to simplify the assembling process and prolong lifetime of the fan.
