A plurality of projections on an outer circumferential surface of the collar are received in a plurality of receiving cutouts in the motor housing. Two fingers formed at the opening of each receiving cutout are deformed to lock the received projection inside the respective receiving cutout. At least three of the projections being pressed against the axially inner end of the respective receiving cutout.
