Abstract

A radiator fan of a motor vehicle, in particular a main fan, contains a fan wheel which has a hub and an electric-motor rotor which is attached thereto in a form-locking manner. At least one connecting dome is formed integrally on the rotor, which connecting dome protrudes through a corresponding cutout of the hub and is deformed on the free end side in a rivet-shaped manner in order to produce the form-locking connection.
