Abstract
An electric motor includes a rotor and a stator including a plurality of unit cores each of which has two ends. The unit cores are disposed so that the ends of each unit core are adjacent to the ends of the neighboring unit cores respectively. Each unit core includes a yoke section and a plurality of salient poles which are integral with the yoke section and on which windings are wound respectively. Adjacent portions of the unit cores are selected so that magnetic fluxes passing through the respective adjacent portions are substantially the same.
