Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to processing sliding mechanisms. For instance, an assembly including a first component having a first sliding mechanism may be heated to a first minimum temperature for a first minimum period of time. Thereafter, a second component is pressed onto the assembly a first time such that the second component contacts the first sliding mechanism. Thereafter, the second component and the assembly may be subjected to a below-freezing temperature for a second minimum period of time. Thereafter, the second component may be separated from the assembly. The first sliding mechanism may be rotated relative to the first component. Thereafter, the second component may be pressed onto the assembly a second time such that the second component contacts the first sliding mechanism. Thereafter, the first component and the assembly may be heated to a second minimum temperature for a third minimum period of time.

Abstract: A motor housing includes a core and a shell having an annular body. The annular body is configured to secure a stator of a motor therein. The annular body includes first and second ends defining first and second openings, respectively. The annular body defines a slot extending along a length of the annular body. The slot is coterminous with the first opening. The core is configured to be in registration with the shell. The core is configured to rotatably support a rotating assembly of the motor including an output shaft. The core includes a base portion, an annular ring, and a guide arm interconnecting the base portion and the annular ring. The core is in registration with the shell when the guide arm is received in the slot of the annular body of the shell to form an interlocking structure.
