A motor includes a stator, a first bearing, a second bearing, a first buffer element, a second buffer element and a rotor. The rotor has a shaft passing though the first bearing, the second bearing, the first buffer element and the second buffer element in order. The first buffer element is disposed adjacent to the first bearing for buffering in one direction, and the second buffer element is disposed adjacent to the second bearing for buffering in another direction.

A motor includes a sensor which magnetically detects an angular position centered about a central axis of a rotor core with respect to an armature. The sensor preferably includes a yoke which has a substantially annular shape, is made of a magnetic material, is arranged substantially perpendicularly to the central axis and is affixed to a shaft, a sensor magnet affixed at the yoke, a magnet cover which covers a surface of the sensor magnet other than a portion in contact with the yoke, a first H...

A rotor is operable to rotate in a rotating direction, and is provided with five teeth that define five slots therebetween at regular intervals in the rotating direction. A pair of arc-shaped magnets surrounds the rotor, and faces each other through the rotor. A value of a circumferential angle between two adjacent slots with respect to an axis of the rotor is defined as a. A value of a circumferential angle between opposite end edges of an inner surface of the magnet in a circumferential direct...

A motor has a rotor core with a plurality of first non-magnetic layers and a plurality of second non-magnetic layers. The rotor core has a plurality of magnets. The first and second non-magnetic layers are positioned to cancel n-th order harmonics. Therefore, a specific order, for example 5-th order and 7-th order, harmonics component of a magnetic flux distribution waveform (induction voltage waveform) is reduced and unnecessary radial force and thrust force is prevented from occurrence, while ...

A motor includes a stator including a core back having a circular or substantially circular shape, a plurality of tooth portions extending radially inwardly from the core back, a plurality of insulators covering the tooth portions, a plurality of coils formed by winding wires around the tooth portions via the insulators. The motor also includes a bus bar arranged axially above the stator. The bus bar supports a first conductor plate having a plurality of first terminals to which first end portio...

A motor includes a heat dissipating structure. The motor may be used for a fan and includes on an upper surface of a circuit board a heat dissipating layer. The heat dissipating layer has a high thermal conductivity. The fan also includes a coil provided on the teeth of a stator core. The heat dissipating layer and the coil axially face each other, and thermal conductive members are arranged therebetween. An outer dimension of the circuit board is greater than that of an impeller cup so that a r...

A motor has a field body having a number of field poles and an armature body having a number of coils which is placed outside of the above described field body in the radial direction. A commutator secured to the armature body has a number of segments to which the coils are respectively connected. The motor has a power supplying part for supplying a current to the coils and a brush holder which is secured to the field body. The brush holder contains an anode side brush device which makes contact...

Motors for fans are provided. The motor includes a stator and a rotor. The stator includes a plurality of magnetic poles. The rotor is coupled to the stator and includes a magnetic structure with a plurality of magnetic poles. Each magnetic pole has an interpolar portion. A uniform gap is formed between the stator and the magnetic structure.

Powder produced by abrasion due to sliding between a brush and a commutator is prevented from moving toward a rotor. A recess is provided between the rotor and a slide face of the brush and the commutator, where powder produced by abrasion at the brush may enter into a motor and increase sliding resistance of the rotor. Thus, there is no such powder produced by abrasion entering into the motor as increasing sliding resistance of the rotor.

The present invention relates to a motor that allows connection terminals to be stably fastened to a bobbin. The motor includes at least one lead wire wound around a bobbin of a stator to form a coil, at least one power line electrically connected to the lead wire to supply power to the lead wire, at least one connection terminal to connect the lead wire to the power line, a terminal holding part provided at a portion of the bobbin to place the connection terminal, at least one terminal receivin...
