Abstract

A mover includes a permanent magnet array including permanent magnets magnetized in a perpendicular direction perpendicular to a motion direction of the mover such that magnetic poles having different polarities alternately appear on magnetic pole surfaces of the permanent magnets along the motion direction. A stator includes first and second magnetic pole portion assemblies disposed on both sides of the permanent magnet array in the perpendicular direction and each including magnetic pole portions facing the magnetic pole surfaces, and a single phase winding that excites the magnetic pole portions forming the first and second magnetic pole portion assemblies. The winding has a hollow structure formed by winding a winding conductor into a coil such that the magnetic pole portions included in the first magnetic pole portion assembly and the magnetic pole portions included in the second magnetic pole portion assembly are located in an internal space of the winding.
