Abstract
A motor includes a rotor rotatable about a center axis that extends vertically, a stator opposing the rotor in a radial direction, and a base portion opposing a lower surface of the stator in an axial direction. The base portion includes a lower lid portion extending in a direction orthogonal or substantially orthogonal to the center axis, a protruding portion protruding in the axial direction from an upper surface at a center of the lower lid portion, and a stator holding portion adjacent to the protruding portion in the axial direction and contactable with an inner circumferential surface of the stator. The protruding portion includes a first ventilation portion opening downward at the center of the lower lid portion and a second ventilation portion to cause the protruding portion to communicate with the first ventilation portion.
