Electric motor and method of manufacturing the same
摘要
An electric motor includes an annular housing and an annular stator core having the inner periphery the shape of which differs from a perfect circle. The stator core is supported by the housing in such a manner that the outer periphery of the stator core and the inner periphery of the housing are partially in contact with each other. The inner periphery of the stator core is deformed to become close to the shape of the perfect circle when the stator core is securely fitted in the housing by shrink fitting.
