Abstract
A rotator includes: a motor; and a brake that brakes the motor. The brake includes: a rotating plate that rotates with rotation of a shaft; a slide plate provided such that the slide plate can be slid in an axial direction of an axis of rotation of the motor in such a way as to approach and move away from the rotating plate; a spring that biases the slide plate toward the rotating plate; and an electromagnet capable of attracting the slide plate in a direction away from the rotating plate. The electromagnet includes: a yoke including an inner cylinder and an outer cylinder; and a brake coil. The yoke is disposed between the slide plate and a rotor in the axial direction. The brake coil is disposed adjacent to the rotor. When the brake coil is energized, the slide plate approaches both the inner cylinder and the outer cylinder.
