Patent ID: 7579745

Claim:
A motor comprising: a motor case; a rotor, operable to rotate in a rotating direction on a central axis within the motor case, and provided with five teeth that define five respective slots therebetween at regular intervals in the rotating direction; and a pair of arc-shaped magnets, surrounding the rotor, and facing each other through the rotor, wherein each of the magnets has an inner circumferential surface which faces the rotor, an outer circumferential surface which faces an inner wall of the motor case, and end surfaces which connect the inner circumferential surface and the outer circumferential surface; wherein a value of a circumferential angle between any two adjacent slots with respect to the central axis of the rotor is defined as the angle a, wherein a value of a circumferential angle between the inner circumferential surface with respect to the central axis of the rotor is defined as the angle b, wherein a value of a circumferential angle between the outer circumferential surface with respect to the central axis of the rotor is defined as angle c, wherein the ratio of the angle a: the angle b: the angle c is 3:6:5, and wherein a value of a circumferential angle between the end surfaces with respect to the central axis of the rotor becomes smaller from the angle b to the angle c as the distance from a center of the rotor becomes larger.
