Abstract
A brushless motor includes: a stator assembly including a stator core which includes a plurality of pole teeth each having a winding therearound; and a rotor assembly including a magnet which has a ring shape, is rotatably disposed so as to oppose the pole teeth of the stator core and which is circumferentially magnetized with a plurality of magnetic poles with opposite polarities alternating with each other, wherein the number of the pole teeth of the stator core is twice the number of the magnetic poles of the magnet such that each magnetic pole opposes a pair of adjacent pole teeth, one pair of adjacent windings have the same number of winding turns and the same winding direction as each other, and wherein another pair of windings located next to the one pair of windings have a winding direction opposite to the winding direction of the one pair of windings.
