Abstract
A rotor includes a first rotor core, a second rotor core, a permanent magnet and a resin layer. The first rotor core includes a first core base and first claw-shaped magnetic poles arranged at equal intervals on a peripheral portion of the first core base. The second rotor core includes a second core base and second claw-shaped magnetic poles arranged at equal intervals on a peripheral portion of the second core base. The first rotor core and the second rotor core are combined with each other so that the first and second core bases are opposed to each other and the first and second claw-shaped magnetic poles are alternately arranged in the circumferential direction of the rotor. The permanent magnet includes at least a main field magnet. The main field magnet is located between the first and second core bases in the axial direction, and is magnetized in the axial direction. The main field magnet causes the first claw-shaped magnetic poles to function as first magnetic poles, and causes the second claw-shaped magnetic poles to function as second magnetic poles. The resin layer covers at least a portion of a surface of the permanent magnet.
