Abstract
A motor includes: a rotor including a shaft rotatable about an axis extending in a vertical direction; a bearing rotatably supporting the shaft; a stationary portion including a stator; and a lead wire electrically connected to the stator. The stationary portion includes a housing located radially outward of the bearing and radially inward of the stator, and supporting the bearing and the stator, a base portion which is located axially below the stator and to which the housing is fixed, and a fixing member fixed to the base portion. The fixing member includes a cover portion covering a shaft lower end portion located at an axially lower end of the shaft when viewed from axially below. The cover portion has an opening portion that opens in an axial direction. The opening portion is located radially more inside than an inner peripheral surface of the shaft when viewed from axially below.
