Patent ID: 8049383

Claim:
A motor comprising: a rotor; and a stator including a plurality of divided cores arranged in a circumferential direction about the stator, with each of the divided cores including a plurality of stacked magnetic entities; a dielectric material disposed between adjacent ones of the magnetic entities; a positive electrode part provided on at least one of the magnetic entities for connecting to a positive side of an external circuit; and a negative electrode part provided on at least one of the magnetic entities that does not have the positive electrode part for connecting to a negative side of the external circuit; wherein the positive electrode part is provided directly on the at least one of the magnetic entities so that a conductive portion of the positive electrode part directly electrically contacts the at least one of the magnetic entities; and the negative electrode part is provided directly on the at least one of the magnetic entities that does not have the positive electrode part so that a conductive portion of the negative electrode part directly electrically contacts the at least one of the magnetic entities that does not have the positive electrode part.
