the contact segment is engaged in the branch portion.
6. The motor according to claim 1, wherein:
the part of the negative terminal, which is in contact with the flange, protrudes toward the flange and has a hole; and
the flange has a protrusion that fits in the hole of the negative terminal.
7. The motor according to claim 1, wherein:
the part of the negative terminal, which is in contact with the flange, protrudes toward the flange and has a protrusion that further protrudes toward the flange; and
the flange has a hole in which the protrusion of the negative terminal fits.
8. The motor according to claim 1, wherein:
the part of the negative terminal, which is in contact with the flange, has a dent that is dented toward the flange; and
the negative terminal is pressed against the flange with the dent positioned against the flange.
9. The motor according to claim 8, wherein the part of the negative terminal, which is in contact with the flange, extends outwardly in the radial direction of the motor yoke.
The claims below are in addition to those above.

prompting, through a display on the device, for an image that includes potential credential information.
3. The method of claim 1, wherein the service comprises an Internet access service.
4. The method of claim 1, wherein the at least one credential that includes at least one character string comprises a network name credential including a network name character string and a password credential comprising a password character string.
5. The method of claim 4, further comprising:
determining that the at least one character string included in the at least one credential comprises a descriptive portion and a functional portion, wherein providing the at least one credential comprises providing only the functional portion of the at least one character string.
6. The method of claim 1, wherein the providing the at least one credential further comprises:
providing a first credential;
determining that the first credential was not accepted by the service; and
providing a second credential.
7. The method of claim 6, further comprising:
storing the first credential in the device.
8. The method of claim 1, further comprising:
associating the at least one credential that was accepted by the service with the service; and
storing the at least one credential that was accepted by the service in the device.
9. The method of claim 1, further comprising:
providing, through a display on the device, at least one credential for editing; and
receiving, by the device, at least one edit that changes at least one character in the at least one character string to provide at least one edited credential.
10. An apparatus comprising a non-transitory, tangible computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program, wherein the computer program has instructions that when executed, carry out:
receiving an image from a camera that is included in the apparatus and coupled to the non-transitory, tangible computer readable storage medium;
analyzing the image and determining that the image includes potential credential information that includes at least one credential including at least one character string;
providing, to a service, the at least one credential from the potential credential information; and
accessing the service in response to the at least one credential being accepted by the service.
11. The apparatus of claim 10, wherein the computer program has instructions that when executed, carry out:
prompting for an image that includes potential credential information.
12. The apparatus of claim 10, wherein the service comprises an Internet access service.
13. The apparatus of claim 10, wherein the at least one credential that includes at least one character string comprises a network name credential including a network name character string and a password credential comprising a password character string.
14. The apparatus of claim 13, wherein the computer program has instructions that when executed, carry out:
determining that the at least one character string included in the at least one credential comprises a descriptive portion and a functional portion, and wherein the computer program instructions, that when carried out provide the at least one credential, include instructions that when carried out provide only the functional portion of the at least one character string.
15. The apparatus of claim 10, wherein the computer program instructions, that when carried out provide the at least one credential, include instructions that when executed, carry out:
