Patent ID: 7906036

Claim:
A sintered ferrite magnet consisting essentially of an M phase, which comprises as indispensable elements: an A element, which is Sr or Sr and Ba: an R element, which is La or La plus at least one of rare earth elements including Y; Ca; Fe and Co, said magnet being produced through steps of pulverization, molding and sintering of a calcined oxide magnet material consisting essentially of an M phase and, having a basic composition represented by the following general formula (1): A 1−x−y Ca x R y Fe 2n−z Co z O 19 (atomic ratio) (1), wherein Ca is added in the form of a compound in an amount of x before calcining, and said sintered ferrite magnet having a basic composition represented by the following general formula (2): A 1−x−y+a Ca x+b R y+c Fe 2n−z Co z+d O 19 (atomic ratio) (2), in the above general formulae (1) and (2), x, y, z and n representing the amounts of Ca, said R element and Co and a molar ratio in said oxide magnet material, and a, b, c and d representing the amounts of said A element, Ca, said R element and Co added to said calcined oxide magnet material in said pulverization, which are numerals meeting the following conditions: 0.13≦x≦0.25, 0.1≦y≦0.6, 0.6≦[(1−x−y)/(1−y)]≦0.79, 0≦z≦0.4, 4≦n≦10, 0≦b≦0.2, 0.13≦x+b≦0.4, 0.1≦y+c≦0.6, 0.1≦z+d≦0.4, 0.56≦[(1−x−y+a)/(1−y+a+b)]≦0.72, 1.1≦(y+c)/(z+d)≦1.8, 1.0≦(y+c)/x≦20, and 0.1≦x/(z+d)≦1.2.
