Abstract
A claw pole member for an electric machine including a plurality of claw pole segments. Each of the plurality of claw pole segments includes a radial projecting member, an axial outer surface extending to a cantilevered end portion, and an axial inner surface extending axially outwardly of the radial projecting member to a cantilevered end section. A first side surface extends between the axial outer surface and the axial inner surface from the radial projecting member to the cantilevered end portion and the cantilevered end section, and a second side surface extends between the axial outer surface and the axial inner surface from the radial projecting member to the cantilevered end portion and the cantilevered end section. The first and second side surfaces define a taper of the claw pole segment. Each of the first and second side surfaces includes a recessed portion that extends into the claw pole segment.
