- the manufacturing method of the motor of the present disclosure is excellent in manufacturability of the motor of the present disclosure.
- Axial gap type motors are manufactured, for example, through two assembling steps of temporary assembly and final assembly of motor parts.
- the reason for temporarily assembling the parts is that it is difficult to make the length of the gap between the stator and the rotor the design length if the parts are assembled only once.
- the design gap length is a target value of the design gap length determined based on the motor specifications. Therefore, the length of the gap of the motor that is temporarily assembled is measured. A difference between the measured length of the gap obtained by measurement and the design length of the gap is obtained. After obtaining the measured length of the gap, disassemble the motor.
- the parts are assembled.
- a shim is placed between the bearing and the plate.
- the placement of the shim moves the bearing away from the plate by the thickness of the shim.
- the shaft supported by the bearings is displaced in the axial direction of the shaft.
- Misalignment of the shaft separates the rotor from the stator.
- the separation of the rotor causes the length of the gap to be longer than the measured length. That is, the length of the gap is longer than the measured length by the thickness of the shim. Since the thickness of the shim is the same as the above difference, the length of the gap can be the designed length.
- the parts are assembled twice, so the manufacturing work becomes complicated. Moreover, in the manufacturing method described above, the number of parts increases by the number of shims. Also, the use of shims may increase mechanical losses due to increased bearing preload.

Since the rotor and the shaft are only connected by a press-fitting structure, the rotor can be moved in the axial direction of the shaft by applying a predetermined pressing force to the rotor along the axial direction of the shaft during the manufacturing process. Alternatively, since the shaft and the bearing are only connected by a press-fit structure, the shaft can be moved in the axial direction of the bearing by applying a predetermined pressing force to the shaft along the axial direction of the bearing during the manufacturing process. Therefore, the position of the rotor can be easily moved to a position where the length of the gap is the designed length.
- the rotor Since the rotor and the shaft are coupled by a press-fit structure, the rotor does not move in the axial direction of the shaft unless a predetermined pressing force is applied to the rotor along the axial direction of the shaft.
- the shaft and the bearing are coupled by a press-fit structure, the shaft does not move in the axial direction of the bearing unless a predetermined pressing force is applied to the shaft along the axial direction of the bearing. Therefore, the rotor is positioned at a position where the length of the gap is the designed length.

- the second mounting position is a position where the length of the gap is the design length among the positions of the bearing in the axial direction of the shaft.

- the method for manufacturing the motor includes the step of obtaining the second mounting position and the step of press-fitting the shaft into the bearing so that the obtained second mounting position is obtained. Position can be positioned. Therefore, the above motor manufacturing method can set the length of the gap to the designed length by assembling the parts only once. Therefore, the above-described method for manufacturing a motor is excellent in manufacturability of a motor with excellent assembly accuracy without using shims.
- the step of determining the first mounting position or the second mounting position may determine the first mounting position or the second mounting position in consideration of the actual dimensions of the stator.

- the metal particles 241 are made of a soft magnetic material.
- Soft magnetic materials are pure iron or iron-based alloys.
- Pure iron has a purity of 99% or more. That is, pure iron has an iron (Fe) content of 99% by mass or more.
- the saturation magnetic flux density of pure iron is higher than that of iron-based alloys. Therefore, if the metal particles 241 of the powder compact are made of pure iron, the saturation magnetic flux density of the compact is likely to be improved. Also, the formability of pure iron is superior to iron-based alloys. Therefore, if the metal particles 241 of the compacted body are made of pure iron, the relative density of the compacted body tends to increase.
- An iron-based alloy is one that contains additional elements, with the balance being Fe and unavoidable impurities. Iron-based alloys contain the most Fe.

- An example of the Fe—Ni alloy is, for example, Permalloy.
- the electrical resistance of iron-based alloys is greater than that of pure iron.

- the insulating coating 242 covers the metal particles 241 .
- the insulating coating 242 can reduce iron loss such as eddy current loss.
- a powder compact provided with the insulating coating 242 tends to reduce loss.
- the material of the insulating coating 242 is, for example, oxide. Examples of oxides are phosphates, silica, magnesium oxide or aluminum oxide. Phosphate has excellent adhesion to the metal particles 241 and also has excellent deformability. Therefore, if the insulating coating 242 is made of phosphate, the insulating coating 242 is likely to deform following the deformation of the metal particles 241 in the process of producing the compact. Therefore, the insulating coating 242 is less likely to be damaged. Since the insulating coating 242 is less likely to be damaged, the loss of the powder compact can be easily reduced.
- the relative density of the compact may be 90% or more.
- a green compact having a relative density of 90% or more can easily improve the saturation magnetic flux density.
- a green compact having a relative density of 90% or more is likely to improve mechanical properties such as strength.
- the relative density may be 93% or higher, or even 95% or higher.
- the relative density may be 99% or less.
- a compacted body having a relative density of 99% tends to have a stable induced voltage value measured by the second method described later.
- “Relative density of the compact” refers to the ratio (%) of the actual density of the compact to the true density of the compact. That is, the relative density of the compact is obtained by [(actual density of compact/true density of compact) ⁇ 100].
- the actual density of the green compact is obtained by immersing the green compact in oil and impregnating the green compact with oil, [oil-impregnated density x (mass of green compact before oil impregnation / pressure after oil impregnation (Mass of powder compact)].
- the oil-impregnated density is (mass of compacted product after impregnated with oil/volume of compacted product after impregnated with oil).
- the actual density of the green compact can be determined by (mass of green compact before oil impregnation/volume of green compact after oil impregnation).

The rotor body 31 does not move in the axial direction of the second shaft portion 42 unless a predetermined pressing force is applied to the second surface 31 s of the rotor body 31 , which will be described later. Therefore, when the motor 1 is used, the position of the rotor body 31 along the axial direction of the second shaft portion 42 does not shift. Since the rotor main body 31 and the second shaft portion 42 are only connected by a press-fit structure, if a predetermined pressing force is applied to the second surface 31s in the manufacturing process, the second shaft portion 42 can be moved along the axial direction. The rotor body 31 is moved.

A space is provided between the outer peripheral surface of the rotor body 31 and the inner peripheral surface of the peripheral wall portion 73 of the case 7 .
- the number of magnets 35 may be one or plural. If the number of magnets 35 is one, compared with the case where the number of magnets 35 is plural, the number of parts is small and the rotor 3 is easy to manufacture. Therefore, it is easy to improve the manufacturability of the motor 1 . Moreover, it is easy to manufacture the motor 1 with excellent assembly accuracy.
