[0026] In an advantageous embodiment, the smallest wall thickness, in particular the radial wall thickness, in particular the smallest radial wall thickness, of the cover flange is greater than the largest wall thickness, in particular the largest radial wall thickness, of the fan guard.

[0066] As shown in the figure, the motor has a stator housing 4, which is connected to a bearing cover 20 at its first axial end and to a bearing flange at the other axial end of the stator housing. The bearing cover 20 receives a first bearing for a motor rotor shaft rotatably supported; the bearing flange receives a second bearing for a motor rotor shaft rotatably supported.

[0067] A first electromagnetically actuatable brake is arranged on the bearing cover 20 on its side axially facing away from the stator housing and is surrounded by a cover flange 1 on which a second electromagnetically actuatable brake is arranged on its side axially facing away from the stator housing.

[0068] The second electromagnetically actuatable brake is surrounded by a fan guard which also surrounds a fan impeller 26 which is connected to the rotor shaft in a rotationally fixed manner.

[0069] An angle sensor 25 is arranged at the end region of the rotor shaft facing away from the stator housing in the axial direction and serves to determine the angular position of the rotor shaft, wherein the angle sensor is surrounded by a further cap fastened to the fan guard.

[0070] The wall thickness of the cover flange 1 is greater than the wall thickness of the fan cover and the cover.

[0071] The fan wheel is placed onto the rotor shaft and is connected to it in a rotationally fixed manner, and the rotor shaft passes through both the first brake and the second brake, in particular in the axial direction.

[0072] The spatial region enclosed by the fan guard 2 includes not only the fan wheel but also at least a part of the surface of the second brake.

[0073] The area covered by the fan guard 2 in the axial direction includes an area covered by the second brake in the axial direction and an area covered by the fan impeller 24 in the axial direction.

[0074] The air flow sucked in by the fan wheel 26 flows through the cover cover grille of the cover cover and the fan guard grille of the fan guard 2 and is subsequently conveyed from the fan wheel 26 to the guard flange 1 and subsequently along the stator housing of the electric machine.

[0075] The first brake and the second brake are identical in structure to each other.

[0076] The first brake has a magnet 27 with an annular recess in which an energizable coil is inserted. The ring axis of the recess is coaxial with the rotation axis of the rotor shaft.

[0077] A carrier having external teeth and an annular shape is mounted on the rotor shaft and is connected to the rotor shaft in a rotationally fixed manner, in particular by means of a key connection.

[0078] The annular brake shoe carrier is sleeved onto the entraining member, wherein the inner teeth of the brake shoe carrier engage with the outer teeth of the entraining member. Therefore, the brake shoe carrier is connected to the rotor shaft in a non-rotatable manner and can move axially.

[0079] The armature plate is axially arranged between the magnet and the brake shoe carrier, is connected to the magnet in a rotationally fixed manner, and is arranged to be axially movable, in particular by passing a bolt fixed to the magnet through the armature plate in the axial direction.

[0080] The spring element supported on the magnet presses on the armature plate, so that when the coil is energized, the armature plate is attracted to the magnet against the spring force generated by the spring element. Conversely, when the coil is not energized, the spring element presses the armature plate onto the brake pad carrier, which is thus pressed onto the brake surface formed on the bearing cover 20. Therefore, the first brake automatically acts when the power is off.

[0081] Preferably, bolts connect the magnet to the bearing cover 20 .

[0082] The second brake has a second magnet 24 having an annular second recess, in which a second energizable coil is embedded. The ring axis of the second recess is coaxial with the rotation axis of the rotor shaft.

[0083] A second carrier 22 is mounted on the rotor shaft, the second carrier having second external teeth and being annular in shape. The second carrier 22 is connected to the rotor shaft in a rotationally fixed manner, in particular by means of a second spline connection.

[0084] The second brake shoe carrier of the ring plate shape is sleeved on the second driving member 22, wherein the second internal teeth of the second brake shoe carrier engage with the external teeth of the second driving member. Therefore, the second brake shoe carrier is connected to the rotor shaft in a non-rotatable manner and is arranged to be axially movable.

[0085] The second armature plate 23 is axially arranged between the second magnet 24 and the second brake pad carrier and is connected to the second magnet 24 in a non-rotatable manner and is arranged to be axially movable, in particular, by allowing a second bolt fixed to the second magnet 24 to pass through the second armature plate 23 in the axial direction.

[0086] The second spring element supported on the second magnet presses on the second armature piece 23, so that when the coil is energized, the second armature piece 23 is attracted to the second magnet 24 against the spring force generated by the second spring element. On the contrary, when the second coil is not energized, the second spring element presses the second armature piece 23 onto the second brake pad carrier, and the second brake pad carrier is thus pressed onto the second brake surface formed on the cover flange 1. Therefore, the second brake automatically acts when the power is off.

[0087] Preferably, a bolt connects the second magnet 24 to the cover flange 1 .

[0088] The friction heat of the second brake is therefore dissipated primarily via the cover flange 1 to the environment.

[0089] like Figure 3 As shown, the cover flange 1 comprises an annular region 32, on which the second brake surface of the second brake is formed. For this purpose, the annular region 32 is machined by grinding, in particular fine grinding.

[0090] The annular region 32 is held by first webs 31 and second webs 33 which extend radially outwards, wherein the distance between the bearing cover and the respective web 31 , 33 decreases, in particular monotonically, with increasing radial distance.

[0091] The webs 31 , 33 are spaced apart from one another in the circumferential direction.

[0092] The second web 33 extends further in the axial direction than the first web 31 .

[0093] Both the first web 31 and the second web 33 open radially outward into the inner wall of the cover flange 1 , ie into the annular base region of the cover flange 1 .

[0094] In addition, the cover flange 1 has radially through openings 30 on its outer circumference, and the openings are spaced apart from each other in the circumferential direction, so that the manual release lever can pass through the corresponding opening according to the installation direction.

[0095] The manual release lever is rotatably supported on the magnet of the first brake, so that the manual release lever can be swung between a first angle and a second angle. According to the rotation angle, in particular the swiveling angle, of the manual release lever, a rod hung on the manual release lever and extending through the through-cutout of the magnet can be axially moved. Here, the rod also passes through the armature plate and has a limiting mechanism, in particular a thickened portion or a corresponding fixing mechanism, on its end facing away from the magnet, so that the armature plate is axially limited by the limiting mechanism and the armature plate is moved in a manner that the brake is released by correspondingly moving the rod.

[0096] The annular region 32 forms an end region of the cap flange, ie in particular the cover of the cap.

[0097] A threaded hole is formed in the cover flange 1 adjacent to the annular region 32 , so that a bolt fastened to the magnet can be connected to the cover flange 1 .

[0098] The radial direction and the circumferential direction are based on the rotation axis of the rotor shaft. The axial direction is parallel to the direction of the rotation axis of the rotor shaft.

[0099] In other exemplary embodiments according to the present invention, the rotor shaft is designed in two parts or in multiple parts instead of the above-mentioned one-piece embodiment.
