Rotor and interior permanent magnet motor

A rotor constituting an interior permanent magnet motor, the rotor comprising:na permanent magnet generating a magnetic field; anda rotor core including a magnet insertion pocket to which the permanent magnet is inserted,wherein, when the permanent magnet is inserted, the magnet insertion pocket is formed so as to provide a first space on a side of a first end out of both ends of the permanent magnet in a circumferential direction and a second space on a side of a second end out of the both ends of the permanent magnet in the circumferential direction of the permanent magnet, andwherein the first space is formed on an outer circumferential side of the rotor core, between the rotor core and a first face of the permanent magnet, the second space is formed, on the outer circumferential side of the rotor core, between the rotor core and a second face of the permanent magnet, the first face of the permanent magnet and the second face of the permanent magnet being perpendicular to a line that connects a center between adjacent permanent magnets and a center of the rotor core, andthe first space of the permanent magnet includes the first face and the second space of another permanent magnet which is adjacent, in the circumferential direction, to the permanent magnet, includes the second face, the first face of the permanent magnet and the second face of the another permanent magnet being perpendicular to a same line.

A rotor constituting an interior permanent magnet motor, the rotor comprising:na permanent magnet including a first end and a second end on respective ends in a circumferential direction and generating a magnetic field; anda rotor core including a magnet insertion pocket to which the permanent magnet is inserted,wherein, the magnet insertion pocket is formed so as to provide first space on a side of the first end and second space on a side of the second end when the permanent magnet is inserted, and outer circumferential faces of the magnet insertion pocket and the permanent magnet are an arc in shape that projects toward an outer circumference of the rotor core,the first space is surrounded by a first face of the permanent magnet that is parallel to a rotating shaft of the rotor, a second face of the permanent magnet that is parallel to the rotating shaft of the rotor and is different from and not parallel to the first face, and the arc shape of the magnet insertion pocket,the second space is surrounded by a third face of the permanent magnet that is parallel to a rotating shaft of the rotor, a fourth face of the permanent magnet that is parallel to the rotating shaft of the rotor and is different from and not parallel to the third face, and the arc shape of the magnet insertion pocket,the first face and the third face are provided on a side of the outer circumference of the rotor core,the second face and the fourth face are parallel to each other, andthe second space is symmetrical in shape to the first space with respect to a line that connects a center of the magnet insertion pocket and a center of the rotor core in a cross section of the rotor core.
