Patent ID: 8205321

Claim:
A method for assembling a magneto generator, the method comprising: forming a plurality of permanent magnets, wherein at least one of the plurality of the permanent magnets is formed by dividing, in a radial direction, a magnet main body into a plurality of magnet pieces, forming, prior to the dividing the magnet main body in the radial direction, a slit in at least one of opposed surfaces of the magnet main body in the radial direction, and the dividing comprises dividing the magnet main body into the plurality of magnet pieces with the slit set as a base point; mounting the formed plurality of the permanent magnets on an inner circumferential wall surface of a bowl-shaped flywheel; disposing a stator core having a plurality of teeth that project radially outward, inside said mounted plurality of the permanent magnets, and winding conductive wire onto each of the plurality of the teeth, thereby producing a generating coil.
