Abstract

A motor rotor has: a rotor yoke; a plurality of magnet fixing sections formed on the lateral surface of the rotor yoke; segment magnets respectively fixed to the magnet fixing sections and extending in the axial direction of the rotor yoke; and a plurality of projections which are provided, on the rotor yoke, at each boundary section located between each of the adjacent magnet mounting sections, and which protrude outward from the rotor yoke; and a pair of end claws are formed by bifurcating the end of each projection into two prongs, and each of the end claws is locked to the outer surface of each of the segment magnets.
