Abstract
A motor includes a rotating portion with a shaft extending along a rotation axis and a rotor that rotates together with the shaft, a stationary portion with a stator located radially outside of the rotor and a magnetic sensor located above the rotor to detect a rotational position of the rotor. The rotor includes a rotor core, a rotor magnet located radially outside of the rotor core and under the magnetic sensor, in contact with the rotor core or located opposite to the rotor core with a first gap therebetween. A recessed portion is recessed from each of an upper end surface and an outer circumferential surface of the rotor core. An inner circumferential surface of a lower end portion of the rotor holder is fixed to a radially inner surface of the recessed portion.
