Abstract
Provided is a rotating electric machine including a rotor and stator fitted with various numbers of poles and slots and adapted to reduce vibration/noise of the machine. The rotating electric machine in accordance with an aspect of the present invention includes a stator having an S number of teeth, and a rotor disposed in the stator with a gap intervening between the stator and the rotor. The plurality of teeth in the stator are grouped in units of the number of teeth that is equal to a value 'm' or a value 'd', the value “m” being obtained by dividing the number of stator slots, S, by the greatest common divisor N of the number of poles, P, and the number of stator slots, S, the value “d” being an aliquot of “m”. At least one tooth in each of the tooth groups has a distal end different in shape from distal ends of other teeth belonging to the same tooth group, and the plurality of tooth groups have the same configuration.
