Winding guide portions of an insulator are received in slots, respectively, of a core. Each of windings is electrically insulated from the core by a winding guide wall of a corresponding one of the winding guide portions in each of corresponding two of slots of the core. The winding guide wall of at least one of the winding guide portions is configured differently from the winding guide wall of each of the rest of the winding guide portions and includes a radial bottom wall section, which is radially outwardly spaced from a radial bottom wall section of a corresponding one of the slots by a predetermined distance and contacts a corresponding one of the windings.

Armature and electric motor having the same

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.
