Abstract
The invention relates to an electric machine excited by a permanent magnet. The electric machine comprises a rotor arrangement having buried permanent magnets and a stator arrangement having an inner recess for rotationally movably receiving the rotor arrangement, the rotor arrangement comprising a plurality of rotor segments, each having a pole shoe, the outer contour thereof corresponding to an arc contour having a contour radius, the contour radius being smaller than the radius of the rotor arrangement, thus forming a gap between two adjacent rotor segments, the at least one outer contour of one of the rotor segments having an arc contour, wherein the dimensions of the contour are optimized with regard to the distortion factor of the course of the flux density distribution of the pole shoe.
