Abstract
A field element core includes field magnet through holes and coupling part. The field magnet through holes are circularly disposed in a peripheral direction around a predetermined direction and are adjacent to each other in the peripheral direction to form a set. The field magnet through holes forming the same pair both extend along a given direction that is defined for each pair, when viewed from the predetermined direction. The coupling partis provided between the field magnet through holes forming the same set and has ends as lateral surfaces, respectively. The entire lateral surfaces of the coupling part are curved to form a concave shape. Specifically, viewed from the predetermined direction, only at a given position between both ends of the lateral surface, a tangent of the lateral surface extends along an extending direction of the coupling part. The same holds true for the lateral surface.
