Abstract
In a switched reluctance motor, the projected poles of a rotor have feeble-magnetic portions each having a shape that extends radially inward approximately in the rotational direction from a position relative close to a radially outer end of the projected pole and to an end of the projected pole facing in a counter-rotational direction, that is, a direction opposite to the rotational direction, or a shape that has a side extending radially inward approximately in the rotational direction from a position relatively close to a radially outer end and an counter-rotational direction-facing end of the projected pole and that extends radially inward approximately in the counter-rotational direction. The feeble-magnetic portions are weaker in magnetism than the material of the rotor and reduce the magnetic attraction force occurring at the time of switching of coil energization, thereby reducing noises while ensuring generation of a desired amount of torque.
