Abstract
An axial gap motor having a rotor and a stator core. A plurality of pressed powder teeth extends in a radial direction of the stator core and each has a trapezoidal shape in which a circumferential length of a pressed-powder-tooth-radial-direction-outer-end portion is larger than a circumferential length of a pressed-powder-tooth-radial-direction-inner-end portion. The rotor includes a plurality of field magnets, each configured such that a circumferential length of a magnet-radial-direction-inner-end portion is greater than or equal to a circumferential length of a magnet-radial-direction-outer-end portion. When the rotor and the stator core rotate relative to each other about a rotation axis, a part of the field magnets first overlaps with pressed-powder-tooth-radial-direction-inner portions of pressed powder teeth, and while the field magnets are located at a q-axis position with respect to the pressed powder teeth, adjacent ones of the field magnets individually overlap with one pressed powder tooth.
