Motor

A motor includes a stator that generates a rotating magnetic field; a rotor supported rotatably by a shaft within the stator; an outermost peripheral permanent magnet that is a permanent magnet embedded inside the rotor in an arced shape forming a convexity at the inner surface of the rotor; and an inner permanent magnet that is a permanent magnet embedded at the inside of the rotor in parallel to the outermost peripheral permanent magnet. The arc angle of the permanent magnets is greater than 90°, the thickness at the center of both inner permanent magnets is thinner than the thickness at the center of the outermost peripheral permanent magnet, and the thickness at the ends of both inner permanent magnets is thicker than the thickness at the ends of the outermost peripheral permanent magnet.
