In an armature of a motor, each of windings is wound around at least two of a plurality of tooth portions of a core to form at least two wound parts of the winding. A crossover of each winding, which connects between corresponding two of the at least two wound parts, is placed on one axial side of a ring portion of the core. A crossover relief space is axially recessed in an end surface of the ring portion on the one axial side. At least a portion of each crossover is received in the crossover relief space. Guides project on the other axial side of the core and guide winding terminal portions of the windings.

Armature and motor

In a fan motor, a fan boss of a fan is integrally rotatably connected to a housing of a drive motor unit. A plurality of fins axially extends from an inner surface of a bottom portion of the fan boss toward a bottom portion of the housing of the drive motor unit and radially inwardly extends from an inner peripheral surface of a tubular portion of the fan boss to create a cooling air flow from an interior of the housing toward an outside of the housing through cooling holes of the housing upon rotation of the fan boss. Each of the plurality of fins includes an auxiliary fin at a location, which is axially opposed to a corresponding one of the at least one cooling hole, to facilitate creation of the cooling air flow upon the rotation of the fan boss.

Fan motor

An insulator is mounted in an armature core. Coils are wound around teeth of the armature core by way of concentrated winding. A power feeding member, which supplies a current to the coils, includes a connecting portion. A separating portion, which is provided in the insulator, is located in the teeth. The separating portion separates each of the coils to a first portion and a second portion. The connecting portion is electrically connected to the first portion. Accordingly, while preventing damage to the coils, the coils are easily connected to the power feeding member.
