Patent ID: 7834511

Claim:
A claw pole generator, comprising: two pole wheel halves ( 21 , 23 ) mounted on a drive shaft ( 15 ) and including clawlike magnet poles ( 22 , 24 ) configured to mesh with one another, and an annular closure body ( 10 ) arranged between adjacent magnet poles ( 21 , 23 ), characterized in that the pole wheel halves ( 21 , 23 ) with their magnet poles ( 22 , 24 ) are insertable into axially offset pockets ( 11 ) of the closure body ( 10 ) in such a way that the closure body ( 10 ) wraps around edges of the magnet poles ( 22 , 24 ), at least in some regions, wherein said axially offset pockets ( 11 ) are connected to covering ribs ( 14 ′), which covering ribs ( 14 ′) extend obliquely to an axis of symmetry ( 27 ) and laterally cover respective axially offset pockets ( 11 ), including a rib ( 14 ) located on an inside of a covering rib ( 14 ′), originating at both pockets ( 11 ), connected by the respective covering rib ( 14 ′) and having a height that is approximately equivalent to a radial depth of the pockets ( 11 ).
