Abstract: Provided is a rotor for a permanent magnet rotary electric machine, which can be manufactured at low cost, enables bonding of a permanent magnet to a rotor core with highly accurate positioning of the permanent magnet, and enables the bonding of the permanent magnet to the rotor core in a skewed manner with respect to an axial direction of the rotor core. The rotor includes a rotor core (1) including a cylindrical portion (11) and a pair of polygonal colmnar portions (12) provided to both ends of the cylindrical portion (11) in the axial direction, and a permanent magnet (2) having a bonding surface, which is flat and bonded to the rotor core (1). The pair of polygonal columnar portions (12) has flat surfaces that are arranged so that center positions are spaced apart from each other as viewed in the axial direction. The bonding surface of the permanent magnet 2 is bonded to the respective flat surfaces of the pair of polygonal columnar portions (12) under a state in which the permanent magnet (2) is skewed with respect to the axial direction.

wherein the bonding surface of the permanent magnet is bonded to the flat surface of the first polygonal columnar portion and the flat surface of the second polygonal columnar portion under a state in which the permanent magnet is skewed with respect to the axial direction.
[Claim 2] A rotor for a permanent magnet rotary electric machine according to claim 1, wherein the flat surface of the first polygonal
columnar portion and the flat surface of the second polygonal columnar portion, to which the bonding surface of the same permanent magnet is bonded, are arranged on the same plane.
[Claim 3] A rotor for a permanent magnet rotary electric machine according to claim 2, wherein the one of the pair of polygonal columnar portions, as viewed in the axial direction, has a shape, which is asymmetric with respect to a center line thereof, and matches a shape of the another one of the pair of polygonal columnar portions as viewed in the axial direction when the shape of the one polygonal columnar portion is vertically inverted about the center line thereof.
[Claim 4] A rotor for a permanent magnet rotary electric machine according to claim 3, wherein each of the pair of polygonal columnar portions, as viewed in the axial direction, has an outer shape of a polygonal shape having a number of vertices twice as many as a number of poles.
[Claim 5] A rotor for a permanent magnet rotary electric machine according to claim 3, wherein the rotor core further includes a circumferential positioning portion formed on one side of the permanent magnet in the circumferential direction.
[Claim 6] A rotor for a permanent magnet rotary electric machine
according to claim 5, wherein the rotor core further includes a disengagement preventing portion, which is formed on the circumferential positioning portion and is arranged on a radially outer side of the permanent magnet.
[Claim 7] A rotor for a permanent magnet rotary electric machine according to any one of claims 1 to 6, wherein the permanent magnet is formed to have a rectangular side surface shape.
[Claim 8] A rotor for a permanent magnet rotary electric machine according to claim 7, wherein the rotor core further includes an axial positioning portion, which is formed on an outer side of the permanent magnet in a longitudinal direction of the rotor core.
[Claim 9] A rotor for a permanent magnet rotary electric machine according to any one of claims 1 to 8,
wherein a plurality of the rotor cores are provided continuously in the axial direction,
wherein two of the rotor cores, which are adjacent to each other in the axial direction, are coupled so as to form a symmetric shape with respect to surfaces at ends of the two rotor cores, which are perpendicular to the axial direction and are held in contact with each other in the axial direction, and
wherein the permanent magnets, which are respectively bonded to the two rotor cores coupled to each other, are arranged to form
a V-like pattern as viewed in a radial direction of the rotor core.
[Claim 10] A permanent magnet rotary electric machine, comprising: the rotor according to any one of claims 1 to 9; and a stator including a stator core, which is arranged so as to
be opposed to the rotor via an air gap therebetween.
