Abstract: A stator core for a rotating electrical machine includes core segments each including a stack of at least one first core member and at least one second core member. The first core member has an arc-shaped first yoke, a first tooth protruding from an inner peripheral side of an arc of the first yoke, a recessed portion provided at a first end of the first yoke, and a protruding portion provided at a second end of the first yoke. The second core member has an arc-shaped second yoke having both linear-shaped ends, and a second tooth protruding from an inner peripheral side of an arc of the second yoke. The recessed portions and the protruding portions of the core segments are combined to form an annular structure, and a dimension of the recessed portion in a radial direction of the annular structure is larger than a dimension of the protruding portion in the radial direction of the annular structure.

Abstract: A rotor for a permanent magnet motor, includes a magnetic pole portion that includes a magnetic body formed in an annular shape; and a field portion that is disposed adjacent to the magnetic pole portion in an axial direction, that includes a permanent magnet formed in an annular shape and having a multipole structure or a plurality of permanent magnets formed in an annular shape and having a monopole structure and a magnetic body, and that causes a magnetic flux generated by the permanent magnet to flow in the axial direction so as to generate magnetic poles on an outer circumferential surface of the magnetic pole portion.

Abstract: A control device converts phase currents supplied to a permanent-magnet rotary motor into a d-axis current and a q-axis current on a dq coordinate axis, and calculates a current command (a d-axis current command or a q-axis current command) for changing at least one of values of the d-axis current and the q-axis current according to a rotor position, based on a torque command, the d-axis current and the q-axis current, so as to cause a magnitude of a reverse magnetic field acting on a permanent-magnet end part to be equal to or lower than a magnetic coercive force of a permanent magnet.

Abstract: A rotor includes permanent magnets arranged such that magnetic poles of N poles and S poles are arranged alternately in a rotation circumferential direction. The permanent magnets form a plurality of rows in a rotation axis direction. The rotor includes a change section in which arrangements of the magnetic poles change with respect to the rotation axis direction due to the permanent magnets being arranged such that arrangements of the magnetic poles change, in the rotation circumferential direction, between the permanent magnets in the plurality of rows. A stator includes tooth sections opposed to the rotor to surround the rotor, and auxiliary slots each of which is selectively formed at one portion of a front end portion of each tooth section in the rotation axis direction such that substantially a center of the auxiliary slot in the rotation axis direction is opposed to the change section.

Abstract: A rotary electric machine comprising a rotor (30A) including a plurality of permanent magnets having magnetic poles and a stator (20A) including a plurality of tooth sections each having a front end portion which faces the rotor, wherein the rotor (30A) has a skew structure having a change section in which boundaries between the magnetic poles change with respect to a rotation axis direction, and the front end portion of each of the plurality of tooth sections of the stator (20A) has an auxiliary slot (24A) which is selectively formed in an extending manner at one portion of the front end portion in the rotation axis direction such that substantially a center of the auxiliary slot in the rotation axis direction is opposed to a center of the change section in the rotation axis direction, and no auxiliary slot is formed at portions located on extensions of the auxiliary slot in the rotation axis direction.
