A spindle motor, in which the number of parts is kept from increasing and the number of assembling processes is reduced, and which has mechanisms for self-balancing and centrally aligning a disk, comprises a motor assembly (31) for rotating a disk (30) as a recording medium, a turntable (12) for mounting the disk (30), and a holder plate (14) disposed under the turntable (12). The mechanism for self-balancing is structured such that a plurality of steel balls (16) are disposed within an annular space (22) defined by the turntable (12) and the holder plate (14), and the mechanism for centrally aligning the disk (30) is constituted by a plurality of claw-shaped aligning members (5) formed at the inner circumference of the holder plate (14).

A claw-pole type stepping motor comprises: a rotor assembly shaped substantially cylindrical, and having a center shaft; and a stator assembly composed of two cup-shaped stator units which are coupled to each other coaxially so as to axially sandwich the rotor assembly, and which each include a bobbin having a magnet wire wound therearound, and two pole tooth arrays magnetically connected to each other and shifted in phase from each other by an electrical angle of 180 degrees. In the motor, each stator unit further includes a cover ring which protects the magnet wire wound around the bobbin against resin injected when the stator unit is resin-molded for an integrated solid structure. The motor structured as described above can be successfully resin-molded so as to enable elimination of a motor case, thus achieving downsizing for the dimension of the eliminated motor case while maintaining a sufficient mechanical strength.

There is provided a stepping motor including: a stator assembly; a rotary shaft which includes a lead screw portion and a plain portion with a rotor magnet disposed thereon, and which has both ends thereof rotatably supported by respective bearings; and a thrust mechanism which includes a resilient member provided in a recess formed at one end of the rotary shaft positioned toward the lead screw portion, and adapted to give an axial thrust force to the rotary shaft, and a point-contact member provided between the resilient member and one bearing of the respective bearings, the one bearing rotatably supporting the one end of the rotary shaft positioned toward the lead screw portion. Thus, the thrust mechanism is located out of and apart from the stator assembly which includes coils to radiate heat, and therefore is prevented from suffering influences from the heat radiated by the coils.

A claw-pole type stepping motor which includes a stator in which coils are arranged in association with a pair of inner and outer yokes and a pair of pole tooth sections thereby forming a magnetic circuit; and a rotor magnet which is rotatably disposed opposite to the pair of pole tooth sections, each of the pair of pole tooth sections being prepared discretely from each of the inner and outer yokes by punching out a soft magnetic steel plate so as to form a piece having a belt portion and a plurality of pole teeth integrally connected to the belt portion and thereafter rolling into a cylindrical shape. Thus, it becomes possible to set arbitrarily individual dimensions of each of the pole teeth as required by the characteristics of a motor, thereby providing an excellent high output and miniature motor.

A stator structure of a claw-pole type stepping motor which has an outer stator yoke having a plurality of pole teeth; an inner stator yoke having a plurality of pole teeth which are intermeshed with the plurality of pole teeth of the outer stator yoke with a gap therebetween; a coil disposed around the circumferential periphery defined by the pole teeth; and a covering which covers the coil. The stator external walls are only partially formed so as to allow the covering to be exposed in regions where the stator external walls are not formed. The stator structure of the present invention enables a dimensional reduction in size of a motor by a dimension corresponding to double the thickness of the stator yoke material, without impairing the performance of the motor.

A stator assembly is provided and includes a laminated core and a one-part insulator having cover walls for covering edges of the laminated core, wherein first projections and a second projection both having a height smaller than the difference between the height of the cover walls and the thickness of the laminated core are formed on one side surface of the insulator in such a manner as to make contact with a part of one axial end side surface of the laminated core, whereby a gap which corresponds to the projection distance of the first and second projections and which serves as a clearance space for chips scraped by the edges of the laminated core from the surfaces of the cover walls is provided between the insulator and the laminated core, resulting in ensuring that the insulator is snap-fitted on the laminated core in good shape.
