  • Patent number: 8350421
    Abstract: A motor may include a stator formed with a rotor arrangement hole, a rotor disposed in the rotor arrangement hole, and a plate-like member disposed on at least one end side in an axial direction of the stator. The plate-like member is joined with an end face of the stator structured such that a peripheral edge part of the plate-like member is melted. In this case, it is preferable that the peripheral edge part of the plate-like member is joined with the end face of the stator structured such that an edge part on an opposite side to a face contacting with the end face of the stator is melted by irradiation of a laser beam.

  • Patent number: 8035264
    Abstract: The invention provides a motor including a terminal block that is insert molded into a core, so as to increase the strength to support the terminal block. A stator has paired inner cores configured by two inner cores facing back to back and each having a disk part and pole teeth. Each of the disk parts is provided with a terminal block holding part. The terminal block is connected with the terminal block holding parts via a resin connection part that is insert molded. The terminal block holding parts are provided with recesses configured by cutouts in portions to face the terminal block, respectively. The resin connection part has a thickness increased by filling the recesses so as to increase the strength at a connection portion thereof. The cutouts in the terminal block holding parts facing back to back are offset with respect to a radial line, terminal block facing ends are generally spaced apart from the terminal block by a constant distance. Therefore, the terminal block is prevented from being unstable.

  • Patent number: 7898123
    Abstract: The permanent magnet type rotary machine is capable of reducing cogging torque caused by variation of amounts of magnetic flux in magnetic circuits. The permanent magnet type rotary machine comprises: a stator constituted by stator units, which are coaxially stacked and in each of which a coil is sandwiched between stator yokes; and a rotor including a permanent magnet having magnetic poles, which respectively face magnetic pole teeth of the stator yokes, the rotor being rotatably supported by an output shaft. The stator units in one phase is divided into n (n is an integer one or more), and magnetic centers of at least one pair of the magnetic pole teeth of the adjacent stator yokes, which are vertically arranged, are shifted with a prescribed phase difference so as to mutually cancel their cogging torque.
