A DC brushless motor includes a housing including a plurality of attachment portions each of which is arranged to extend toward an apparatus, a base portion joined to the attachment portions, and a bearing holding portion joined to the base portion; a bearing member held by the bearing holding portion; a shaft supported by the bearing member to be rotatable about a central axis, and including a portion on one axial side to which blades that perform stirring in a heating chamber are joinable; a rotor holder fixed to the shaft; a rotor magnet held on an inside of a cylindrical portion of the rotor holder; a stator arranged radially inside the rotor magnet; and a circuit board electrically connected with the stator, and arranged axially opposite the opening of the rotor holder.

An electric motor has a first carrier having an array of electromagnetic elements and a second carrier having electromagnetic elements defining magnetic poles. The first and second carriers each define an axis. An airgap is formed between the first and second carriers when in an operational position. An inner thrust bearing connects the first and second carriers and is arranged to allow relative rotary motion of the carriers. An outer thrust bearing connects the first and second carriers and is arranged to allow relative rotary motion of the carriers. The electromagnetic elements of each of the first and second carriers are arranged radially inward of the outer thrust bearing and radially outward of the inner thrust bearing. The inner thrust bearing and the outer thrust bearing are arranged to maintain the airgap against a magnetic attraction of the electromagnetic elements of the first and second carriers.

A motor includes a rotor having permanent magnets, and a stator having a stator core. The stator core includes a magnetic yoke and a plurality of stator teeth. Each stator tooth includes a tooth portion and a pole shoe. A slot with a width C is defined between neighboring pole shoes. A minimum distance between one of the pole shoes and the corresponding one of the permanent magnets is defined as D. A distance from a slot center point of one of the slot of the stator core to an air gap centreline along a radial direction of the stator core is defined as B. A distance from the air gap centerline to the corresponding one of the permanent magnets along the axial direction of the stator core through the slot center point is defined as A. The values of A, B, C and D satisfy the following formulas: A=B; A+B=(4˜5)*D; C=(0.9˜1.1)*(A+B).
