However, such a conventional vacuum motor has the following problems. (1) Since the motor case doubles as a partition wall for air and vacuum, it is necessary to make the case stronger than the required mechanical strength. Therefore, the motor becomes large and heavy as a whole. (2) Only materials suitable for the vacuum environment can be used as the material for the driving unit, which is costly. In addition, since it is a custom-made product, it takes time to manufacture. The present invention has been made to solve such a problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a vacuum motor that is small in size, lightweight, and low in manufacturing cost.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a side sectional view of a vacuum motor showing an embodiment of the present invention, showing a state in which it is attached to a vacuum chamber. In the figure, 1 is a vacuum chamber, 2 is a floor of the vacuum chamber, 3 is a motor mounting hole provided in the floor 2, 4 is a vacuum motor, and a motor 6 having a detector 5 and a motor 6 are provided. It consists of a speed reducer 7 attached to the tip. The speed reducer 7 has a mounting flange 8 on the load side, and a mounting ring 9 having an L-shaped cross section is fixed to the outer peripheral portion of the mounting flange 8. The mounting ring 9
Is a peripheral edge 3a of the motor mounting hole 3 of the vacuum chamber 1.
Then, it is fastened and fixed by a bolt or the like not shown. When tightening the mounting ring 9 on the peripheral edge 3a of the motor mounting hole 3, the O-ring 10 is inserted into the ring-shaped groove 3b provided on the peripheral edge 3a so that no gap is created between the peripheral edge 3a and the mounting ring 9. I have to. 11 is the mounting flange 8
A seal holding part formed by extending the inner peripheral part of the in the axial direction,
The vacuum seal 12 is fixed to the inner peripheral surface of the tip portion. The vacuum seal 12 is made of resin and has an inner peripheral surface in contact with the output shaft 7a of the speed reducer 7, and partitions the internal space of the motor 6 and the speed reducer 7 from the internal space of the vacuum chamber 1.
Reference numeral 13 is a seal cover attached to the seal holder 11. In such a configuration, when the vacuum motor 4 is driven, dust or the like is generated inside the vacuum motor 4, but the vacuum seal 12 partitions the internal space of the motor 6 and the speed reducer 7 from the internal space of the vacuum chamber 1. Therefore, dust or the like does not enter the vacuum chamber 1 from the inside of the motor 6 and the speed reducer 7. Further, outside the vacuum motor 4, since the O-ring 10 is interposed between the peripheral edge 3a and the mounting ring 9, there is no gap between the peripheral edge 3a and the mounting ring 9, and the atmosphere outside the vacuum chamber 1 is the peripheral edge. The vacuum chamber 1 does not enter from the portion 3a. In addition, in the present invention, the seal holding portion 11 may be provided not on the mounting flange 8 but on the mounting ring 9.
