Abstract
Abstract A rotor for a synchronous motor, having a plurality of first magnetic poles (19) formed by a plurality of permanent magnets respectively and disposed at practically equal circumferential intervals on the outer circumference of a yoke (18) fixed to a rotatable motor shaft (14), and a second magnetic pole (18a) projecting radially from the yoke (18) adjacently to each first magnetic pole (19) so as to form a pair of a first magnetic pole (19) and the second magnetic pole (18a), wherein the shape of the pole face of each second magnetic pole (18a) is decided so that the magnetic flux distribution established by a pair of the first magnetic pole (19) and the second magnetic pole (18a) is practically equivalent to a sinusoidal magnetic flux distribution in the sweeping effect by the armature coils of each phase of the stator (11).
