The inner space 40 is penetrated through the open opening 41 to cover the housing 100 and the cover plate 300. The two flange plates 301 on the cover plate 300 pass through the side cover 10.

[0052] The side cover 10, the end cover 20 and the flanged edge stop 30 are integrally injection-molded with elastic material and have elasticity;

[0053] The stepper motor using the waterproof cover comprises: a housing 100, an output shaft 200, and a cover plate 300; the cover plate 300 is connected to the housing 100; one end of the output shaft 200 passes through the housing 100, and the other end passes through the cover plate 300; and further comprises: the waterproof cover;

[0054] The waterproof cover comprises: the side cover body 10, the end face cover body 20, and the flanged edge stopper 30;

[0079] Another embodiment:

[0080] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 As shown; during implementation, the width dimension L2 of the inner space 40 is greater than the width dimension L1 of the housing 100 and the cover plate 300 after assembly;
