A rotor has a rotor core arranged to radially face a stator. The rotor core has an accommodation hole extending axially from an axial end face of the rotor core. A magnet is received in the accommodation hole. A recess, which is dented in a direction separating from the magnet, is formed in an end surface of the accommodation hole. The recess has an opening facing the magnet. A pair of open distal portions are arranged at opposite sides of the opening and pressed against the magnet.

Rotor and method for manufacturing the rotor

A bus bar device electrically connects a plurality of coils arranged along a circumferential direction of the bus bar device to form an annular shape in entirety. A plurality of bus bars is arranged so that a plurality of layers is formed in a radial direction of the bus bar device. Each of the bus bars is formed from an arc-shaped conductive wire. A plurality of connection wires is respectively connected to the plurality of coils. The connection wires are arranged to overlap the bus bars and intersect the bus bars in the axial direction. Intersection portions at which the bus bars and the connection wires intersect include connection intersection portions at which the connection wires are electrically connected to the bus bars.
