Abstract
A permanent magnet rotor of a brushless direct current (BLDC) motor, in which cogging torque ripple and electromagnetic vibration noise transferred to the permanent magnet rotor can be blocked and a motor's power-to-weight ratio can be improved. A conventional BLDC motor has to use an electric steel sheet core so as to maintain the maximum magnetic flux density of the permanent magnet rotor and to minimize a rotating electric field loss. As a result, cogging torque vibration is unavoidably transferred to a load side through the motor rotary shaft. However, the rotor can enable stable driving of the BLDC motor by innovatively blocking the cogging torque vibration and the electromagnetic vibration noise and can greatly reduce the motor's weight by using a plastic or non-magnetic material instead of an electric steel sheet core.
