Abstract
A drive magnet unit is fixedly mounted on the inner cylindrical surface of the cylindrical portion of a rotor yoke which is fixedly mounted on a hub, in such a manner that the drive magnet unit confronts a stator core. The rotor yoke has an annular portion along its open end. The rotor yoke has a curved portion along the open end which forms a gap with the outer cylindrical surface of the drive magnet unit. The annular portion is sheared along its base, thus forming a shear plane. The inner surface of the bottom of the rotor yoke, and the inner cylindrical surface of the cylindrical portion of the rotor yoke form a right-angled portion with which the right-angled outer edge portion of the drive magnet unit is engaged. The peripheral surface of the right-angled portion defines a through-hole in the bottom which is engaged with the hub. The gap is filled with adhesive, to fixedly secure the drive magnet unit to the rotor yoke.
