Abstract: A rotor for a reluctance type rotating machine includes a rotor core formed by stacking a number of annular core materials each of which includes magnetic concave and convex portions. The rotor core has two keys which are formed at two positions on an inner circumference of the rotor core. The positions are spaced 180 degrees apart from each other with respect to the rotor core. The rotor core is divided into a plurality of blocks and the core materials constituting at least one block have the magnetic concave and convex portions shifted by a predetermined angle relative to the core materials constituting the other or another block on the basis of a center line passing through the keys. A whole or part of the core materials of at least one block are located circumferentially 180 degrees apart form the core materials constituting the other or another block.

Abstract: A rotor for a reluctance type rotating machine includes a rotor core formed by stacking a number of annular core materials each of which includes magnetic concave and convex portions alternately formed on an outer circumference thereof and a central through hole, the rotor core having a key axially extending on an outer circumference, the rotor core being divided into a plurality of blocks, the core materials constituting one of at least three blocks having the magnetic concave and convex portions shifted by a predetermined angle in one of a rotating direction of the rotor and a direction opposite the rotating direction of the rotor relative to a center line passing the key, the core materials constituting each one of the blocks located at both ends of the one block having the magnetic concave and convex portions shifted by a predetermined angle in the other of the rotating direction of the rotor and the direction opposite the rotating direction of the rotor relative to a center line passing the key, and a ro
