Abstract:
1. A manufacturing method for a rotor of a rotating electrical machine provided with a plurality of magnetic poles that are fixed on a rotor iron core and arranged spaced apart from one another in the circumferential direction of the rotor iron core and a non-magnetic ring having a plurality of inner-diameter bulging portions that abut on the corresponding outer circumferential surfaces of the plurality of magnetic poles, the manufacturing method comprising the steps of: press-fitting an approximately cylindrical non-magnetic ring on outer circumferential surfaces of the plurality of magnetic poles; and forming a radial-direction extending portion, at at least one of the axis-direction end portions of the press-fitted non-magnetic ring, which extends inward in the radial direction of the non-magnetic ring so as to cover at least one axis-direction end surface of each of the plurality of magnetic poles, wherein the radial-direction extending portion has an axis-direction extending portion that extends along the axis direction of the non-magnetic ring in an outward direction away from the rotor iron core, the axis-direction extending portion extends from the radial-direction inner end portion of the radial-direction extending portion, wherein the axis-direction extending portion has an inner surface that faces to an outer surface of a rotor shaft through an air gap, and wherein the approximately cylindrical non-magnetic ring is deformed due to the press-fitting, so that the plurality of inner-diameter bulging portions of the non-magnetic ring are formed.
