Abstract: There is provided a rotary electric machine. A stator is formed by laminating first steel plates and second steel plates, which are formed from an identical magnetic material and having an identical planar shape but different thickness dimensions. Hence, in contrast to a motor/generator (a comparative example) including a stator formed by laminating steel plates having an identical thickness dimension, with which a single resonance frequency is generated (such that a peak value is large), two resonance frequencies are generated, and therefore the peak value can be dispersed between the respective resonance frequencies (such that the peak value is small).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a motor having a stator with a magnetized rotor rotatably positioned in the stator. The stator and the rotor each have at least two magnetic poles. At least one of the stator poles has a different area confronting the poles of the rotor than the other stator poles. An air gap is positioned between each of the at least two stator poles and at least two rotor poles. The distance of the air gap between each stator pole and each rotor pole is different. A coil is wound upon a bobbin which is placed about at least one of the stator poles. Altering the confronting area of the stator poles allows a larger bobbin and coil to be placed about the stator pole.
