  • Patent number: 9800106
    Abstract: Satisfactory magnet torque is achieved while avoiding a reduction in the reluctance torque generated. The rotor core is provided with a plurality of magnet slots arranged in the circumferential direction of the rotor core and a gap formed of base holes and a projecting hole. The base holes extend from both ends in the circumferential direction of each magnet slot to the outer side of the rotor core. The projecting hole projects in the circumferential direction of the rotor core from at least one of peripheral portions, opposed to each other, of the base holes provided at both of the ends of the magnet slot, when viewed in an axial direction. The projecting hole is located closer to the magnet slot than to an outer peripheral side end of the base hole.

  • Patent number: 7973443
    Abstract: A magnetic field element includes magnetic field portions and a coupling portion and is rotatable on a rotation axis along a given direction. Each magnetic field portion includes a magnet and magnetic plates. The magnet includes first and second pole faces having different polarities from each other in the given direction. The magnetic-material plates are provided on the first and second pole faces. The magnetic field portions are annularly arranged along a circumferential direction around the rotation axis and spaced in the circumferential direction from one another. The coupling portion is made of a non-magnetic material and couples the magnetic field portions to one another.
