Mounting shaft for an electric motor, electric motor with a mounting shaft, use of a mounting shaft as a drive shaft of a rotary encoder and method for connecting a mounting shaft with a motor shaft of an electric motor

摘要

An add-on shaft for an electric motor, an electric motor having an add-on shaft, an add-on shaft that drives a rotary encoder and a method for connecting an add-on shaft to a motor shaft of an electric motor are disclosed. The add-on shaft has a pin that is introduced into a centered blind hole in the motor shaft of the electric motor. The pin has sections having different diameters, so that the add-on shaft is aligned coaxially with the motor shaft and fixed in the blind hole by an interference fit, but adhesive applied onto the pin is not wiped off during the joining operation. A defined adhesive gap optimal for the adhesive used is also provided.
