Abstract

A rotor is provided so that a rotor-side end part of a rotation shaft is rotatably supported by a bearing accommodated in a bearing accommodating part provided in a bottom part of a yoke in such a way as to project to a rotor side, and a part of an armature winding wound around a core surrounds the bearing accommodating part through an insulator.

Claims (38)

1. A pump actuation motor for actuating a pump, comprising:

a yoke;

a rotation shaft including one end having a support shaft part inserted into and which is supported to a system main body and an eccentric shaft part for actuating said pump, and the other end includes a rotor formed by winding an armature winding around a core through an insulator, and a commutator are attached;

a brush holder for holding a brush feeding electric power supplied from said system main body, to said commutator;

a housing interposed between said yoke and said system main body in such a way as to cover an opening part of said yoke; and

a bearing accommodated in a bearing accommodating part formed in a bottom part of said yoke, which has a closed end, to project toward said rotor, so that the other end of said rotation shaft is rotatably supported,

wherein said armature winding wound around said core at least partially surrounds said bearing accommodating part through said insulator.

2. The pump actuation motor according to claim 1 , wherein said bearing accommodating part is formed by bending said yoke.

3. The pump actuation motor according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a plurality of arc-shaped magnets disposed opposite to said core;

a projecting ridge axially formed on an inner wall of said yoke in such a manner as to be inwardly projected; and

an elastic member for holding said magnets along said inner wall of said yoke in cooperation with said projecting ridge.

4. The pump actuation motor according to claim 3 , wherein the elastic member is a clip attached resiliently between end parts of the plurality of arc-shaped magnets.

5. The pump actuation motor according to claim 1 , wherein the bearing accommodating part is a projecting wall formed inwardly at a bottom part of the yoke in an axial direction.

6. The pump actuation motor according to claim 1 , wherein the bearing is one of a rolling bearing and a sliding bearing fitted into the bearing accommodating part.

7. The pump actuation motor according to claim 1 , wherein the bearing is held in the bearing accommodating part by press-fit and an elasticity of the bearing accommodating part.

8. The pump actuation motor according to claim 1 , wherein the other end of the rotation shaft is rotatably supported by the bearing placed about an outer portion thereof.

9. The pump actuation motor according to claim 1 , wherein the bearing accommodating part is an inwardly projecting wall forming a seat surrounded by the inwardly projecting wall, and the bearing fits within the seat formed by the inwardly projecting wall.

10. The pump actuation motor according to claim 1 , wherein a part of the winding of the core axially overlaps with the bearing accommodating area that supports the other end of the rotation shaft.

11. The pump actuation motor according to claim 10 , wherein the rotor is rotatably supported at a position close to a center of gravity thereof.

12. The pump actuation motor according to claim 10 , wherein the other end of the rotation shaft is inserted within a space formed by the bearing accommodating part.

13. The pump actuation motor according to claim 10 , wherein the insulator is formed so that a radial clearance between the other end and the bearing accommodating part is maintained, and the armature winding at the other end surrounds the bearing accommodating part in a non-contact manner.

14. The pump actuation motor according to claim 13 , wherein the rotor is fitted into the rotation shaft in an overlapped position in which a part of the armature winding wound around the core overlaps with the bearing accommodating part in an axial direction.

15. A pump actuation motor for actuating a pump, comprising:

a yoke;

a rotation shaft including a first end and a second end, the first end comprising an eccentric shaft part, and the second end forming a rotor by winding an armature winding around a core through an insulator;

a brush holder positioned within a part of the yoke, the brush holder holding a brush which feeds electric power to a commutator;

a housing covering an opening part of the yoke;

a bearing accommodating part having a closed end projecting inwardly from a bottom part of the yoke towards the rotor; and

a bearing accommodated within the bearing accommodating part such that the bearing surrounds and rotatably supports an outer part of the rotation shaft,

wherein the insulator is positioned at least partially between the bearing accommodating part and the armature winding.

16. The pump actuation motor according to claim 15 , wherein:

the bearing accommodating part is a projecting wall formed inwardly at a bottom part of the yoke in an axial direction;

the bearing is one of a rolling bearing and a sliding bearing fitted into the bearing accommodating part; and

the bearing is held in the bearing accommodating part by press-fit and an elasticity of the bearing accommodating part.

17. The pump actuation motor according to claim 15 , wherein the bearing accommodating part is an inwardly projecting wall forming a seat surrounded by the inwardly projecting wall, the bearing sits within the seat formed by the inwardly projecting wall.

18. The pump actuation motor according to claim 15 , wherein a part of the winding of the core axially overlaps with the bearing accommodating area that supports the second end of the rotation shaft.

19. The pump actuation motor according to claim 15 , wherein the second end of the rotation shaft is inserted within a space formed by the bearing accommodating part.
