Patent ID: 7928619

Claim:
A gap winding motor comprising: a stator including a stator core and armature winding formed by arranging a plurality of air-core coils for generating a rotating magnetic field on an inner peripheral surface or an outer peripheral surface of the stator core, the stator core having an axial direction and comprising: a first core portion; and a second core portion arranged to face the first core portion in the axial direction via an air-gap section formed between the first core portion and the second core portion in the axial direction; a rotor which faces the stator with a magnetic air gap therebetween, the rotor being rotated by an effect of the rotating magnetic field; and a connector section of the air-core coils, the connector section being disposed in the air-gap section, the connector section being disposed completely inside a circumference of the first core portion and the second core portion of the stator core.
