Abstract
An electric motor has a supplementary field magnet including a supplementary magnet, a yoke serving as a magnetic path for magnetic flux produced by the supplementary magnet. The supplementary field magnet is arranged on one axial end side of the rotor with a gap. A rotor core is provided with first projections projecting toward one axial end side of the electric motor from first magnetic pole portions having a first polarity, and second projections projecting toward the one axial end side from second magnetic pole portions having a second polarity, and arranged radially inward of the first projections. The yoke includes a magnetic pole portion axially opposed to the first projections and having the first polarity, and another magnetic pole portion axially opposed to the second projections and having the second polarity such that a gap is formed between the magnetic pole portions.
