  • Patent number: 11296563
    Abstract: A rotor includes a rotor core, permanent magnets, and a tubular non-magnetic cover. The permanent magnets are arranged along an outer surface of the rotor core in the circumferential direction. The permanent magnets each include a curved outer surface as viewed in the axial direction. The tubular non-magnetic cover covers the outer surfaces of the permanent magnets. The rotor core includes at least two stacked cores. Each stacked core includes a stack of core sheets. One of the stacked cores is formed from a material having a lower hardness than the other stacked core.

  • Patent number: 11038387
    Abstract: A motor includes a stator, a first frame, a second frame, and a fastening member. The stator includes a stator core including a plurality of teeth extending radially inward and an armature winding wound around the teeth. The first frame is arranged to cover one axial end surface side of the stator. The second frame is arranged to cover another axial end surface side of the stator. The fastening member fastens the first frame and the second frame to each other with the stator core held by the first frame and the second frame in the axial direction. The circumference of the stator core and the circumference of at least one of the first frame and the second frame each include a circumferential positioning recess. The circumferential positioning recess is arranged at a circumferential reference position and is outwardly open in the radial direction.
