  • Publication number: 20240113577
    Abstract: A rotor includes stacked core plates, a hole, and a magnet inserted into the hole. A holding core plate has a through hole as part of the hole, a protrusion protruding inwardly from an inner surface of the through hole and being in contact with the magnet, and a displacement permission portion located in an opposite direction to a protrusion direction of the protrusion and permitting displacement of the protrusion in the opposite direction. The rotor includes at least one of a magnet-side chamfered portion in which the front side edge portion of the magnet is chamfered or a protrusion-side chamfered portion in which the tip end edge portion of the protrusion is chamfered. A sum of lengths of the magnet-side and protrusion-side chamfered portions is equal to or longer than a length of the protrusion in the protrusion direction as the rotor is viewed from the axial direction.
