Abstract:
A laminated core arrangement for an electric machine includes a laminated core having at least two part cores which are arranged in an axial direction. Each of the part cores has a plurality of polygonal individual sheets, with at least one of the individual sheets being round and disposed between the part cores. The at least one round individual sheet has a diameter which is less than or equal to an inner circle of the polygonal individual sheets. Permanently-excited magnets are disposed around a circumference of the laminated core.
