Patent ID: 11264879

Abstract:
An in-wheel motor, comprising: a rotor (14) of a surface permanent magnet type, wherein a plurality of permanent magnets (15) are fixed along an inner circumferential surface of the rotor; wedge-shaped protrusions (42) for fixing the permanent magnets (15) on the rotor (14); and a stator (30) disposed inside the rotor (14), wherein teeth (35) and slots (36) are alternately formed on an outer circumferential portion of the stator; wherein the number of the permanent magnets (15) is 32, and the number of the slots 36 is 24; wherein each of the permanent magnets (15) has chamfers (43) on each of the ends so that a magnetic flux cannot concentrate, and is convex toward the stator (30), in a cross-section perpendicular to a rotary axis of the rotor (14).
