STATOR ARRANGEMENT AND METHOD FOR SECURING A LAMINATED CORE

The invention discloses a stator arrangement, having a large number of metal sheets which are stacked to form a laminated core as the stator core, wherein coil receptacles for receiving stator windings are formed on the stator core and the stator core is arranged on a motor support with at least one bearing seat, wherein the bearing seat of the motor support is positioned in a centred manner in relation to the stator core, wherein the stator core has projections that are oriented radially with respect to the bearing seat and project into axial recesses of the motor support, wherein at least one projection of the stator core can be caulked with at least one recess of the motor support by application of pressure at least once by at least one punching tool to two opposite side sections of the projection. Furthermore, the invention discloses a method for securing a laminated core, in particular a stator core, to a motor support.
