Abstract

The invention relates to a spindle motor comprising a casing part with a horizontal flange portion and a vertically oriented receiving sleeve for receiving and fastening a corresponding bearing configuration. According to the invention a bottom portion, integrally connected with the horizontal flange portion, is provided, which unilaterally closes the receiving sleeve. Consequently, the mounting of a separate cover for closing the receiving sleeve can be omitted.
