The claw poles of the first rotor core and the claw poles of the second rotor core are alternately arranged in a circumferential direction. The field magnet is located between the core bases.

The commutator magnet is located on an outer circumference of the field magnet around the claw poles. The commutator magnet is magnetized so that surfaces having the same polarity face each other between the claw poles and the commutator magnet.
