Abstract
A stator for an electric motor includes a yoke and a star disposed in the yoke. The star is configured to receive a rotor therein and has at least one wire coiled thereat. The yoke and the star are configured such that the star is axially insertable into the yoke with reduced interference and reduced insertion force. The star is axially inserted into the yoke in an unlocked position. When the star is inserted into the yoke, the star is rotatable to a locked position, whereby the star is retained at the yoke via an interference fit.
