Abstract

A motor includes a motor unit, a gear housing coupled to the motor unit, and a connector module including a connector housing coupled to the gear housing. The motor unit includes a rotation shaft and a power terminal. The gear housing accommodates a deceleration mechanism that outputs decelerated rotation of the rotation shaft. The connector terminal and the circuit substrate are fixed to the connector housing. The power terminal is connected to a socket of the connector terminal when coupling the connector housing to the gear housing. The connector terminal includes a fixed portion fixed to the connector housing, a substrate connecting portion connected to the circuit substrate, and a supported portion located closer to the socket than the substrate connecting portion. The connector housing includes a terminal supporting portion that supports the supported portion from the rear in the coupling direction.
