Motor planetary gear arrangement and method for connecting a motor having a planetary gear mechanism for producing a planetary gear motor assembly

1. An assembly comprising a motor, which has a motor housing, further comprising a planetary gear unit that is connected to the motor, such planetary gear unit having a gear ring and such gear ring having a gear ring section, such gear ring section overlapping a motor housing section, such assembly further comprising a connecting element, which connects the gear ring to the motor housing, wherein the connecting element is a round wire snap ring, which engages on the motor side with a motor housing recess and which engages on the gear ring side with a gear ring recess in the gear ring section that overlaps the motor housing section.

2. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the recesses, in particular the gear ring recess located in the gear ring section that overlaps the motor housing section, exhibits an obliquely extending wall surface, so that the gear ring is axially braced against the motor housing.

3. The assembly, of claim 1 , wherein a motor-sided end face of the gear ring section that overlaps the motor housing section that exhibits an entering bevel.

4. The assembly of claim 1 , wherein the motor housing section that is overlapped by the gear ring section has a smaller circumference than the portion of the motor housing that is not overlapped by the gear ring section, so that the portion of the motor housing that is not overlapped by the gear ring section merges planarly with the gear ring.

5. A method for producing the assembly of claim 1 by connecting the motor to the planetary gear unit, said method comprising the steps:

providing the motor having the motor housing, which has the motor housing recess,

providing the planetary gear unit comprising the gear ring, wherein the gear ring section overlaps the motor housing section in which the motor housing recess is disposed, wherein the gear ring recess is disposed in the gear ring section and wherein an entering bevel is disposed on an end face of the gear ring section,

placing the round wire snap ring at the recess of the motor housing, and

slipping the gear ring, with the gear ring section for overlapping the motor housing section, onto the motor housing, so that the round wire snap ring is first pushed into the motor housing recess by means of the entering bevel and then snaps into the gear ring recess.

6. The assembly of claim 1 , further comprising an anti-rotation lock that stops the gear ring from rotating relative to the motor housing.

7. An assembly comprising a motor, which has a motor housing, further comprising a planetary gear unit that is connected to the motor and that comprises a gear ring having a gear ring section, which is overlapped by a motor housing section, and comprising a connecting element, which connects the gear ring to the motor housing, wherein the connecting element is a round wire snap ring, which engages on a motor side with a motor housing recess which overlaps the gear ring, and which engages on a gear ring side with a gear ring recess.

8. The assembly of claim 7 , wherein at least one of the recesses, in particular, the recess in the motor housing section that overlaps the gear ring section, exhibits an obliquely extending wall surface, so that the gear ring is axially braced against the motor housing.

9. The assembly of claim 7 , wherein a gear ring-sided end face of the motor housing section that overlaps the gear ring section exhibits an entering bevel.

10. The assembly of claim 7 , wherein the gear ring section is overlapped by the motor housing section, and such gear ring section has a smaller circumference than a portion of the gear ring that is not overlapped by the motor housing section, so that a non-overlapped portion of the gear ring merges planarly with the motor housing.

11. The assembly of claim 7 , further comprising an anti-rotation lock that stops the gear ring from rotating relative to the motor housing.

12. A method for producing the assembly of claim 7 by connecting the motor to the planetary gear unit, said method comprising the steps:

providing the planetary gear unit having the gear ring, wherein the gear ring exhibits the gear ring recess,

providing the motor having the motor housing, wherein the motor housing section overlaps the gear ring section, wherein the gear ring recess is disposed, wherein the motor housing recess is disposed in the motor housing section and wherein an entering bevel is disposed on an end face of the motor housing section,

disposing the round wire snap ring at the gear ring recess, and

slipping the motor with the motor housing section onto the gear ring, so that the round wire snap ring is first pushed into the gear ring recess by means of the entering bevel and then snaps into the motor housing recess.
