Abstract: The invention relates to a permanent-magnetic rotor (2) for an electric motor, preferably for an internal rotor motor, that comprises a laminated core (3) consisting of several rotor sheets (4, 41, 5) that are stacked in the axial direction. Permanent magnets (8) are arranged in receiving pockets (7) formed by recesses (6) of the rotor sheets, the laminated core (3) being composed of at least two differently shaped types of rotor sheets (4, 4?, 5). Several rotor sheets (4, 41) of a first type of rotor sheet are provided as retaining sheets (4, 41) that respectively comprise a (central) yoke lamination section (13) that is connected or can be connected to the rotor shaft and respectively one or more (external) pole shoe sections (12) that are connected to the yoke lamination section (13) by one or more connecting bars (9, 9?, 10) or bar sections, and several rotor sheets (5) of a second type of rotor sheet are provided as intermediate sheets (5) without connecting bars.
