Composite rotors provided herein include a rotor body extending along a longitudinal axis including a first component extending longitudinally along at least a portion of the rotor body and a second component extending longitudinally along at least a portion of the rotor body, at least a portion of the second component disposed concentrically around the first component, wherein the first component and the second component together define an internal region, wherein a radial thickness of the first component and a radial thickness of the second component vary along the longitudinal axis. The composite rotor also includes at least one magnet disposed on an inner surface of at least one of the first component or the second component within the internal region.

A fan-equipped motor includes: a motor for rotating a spindle, the motor including a hollow-shaped motor shaft in which a through hole is formed; and a fan for cooling the motor, the fan including a hollow-shaped rotary shaft in which a through hole is formed, and a plurality of blades attached to the rotary shaft, the fan being disposed on the side of the motor that is opposite to the spindle. The motor shaft and the rotary shaft are disposed so that cooling air produced by the fan flows in a different passage and in a different direction from a gas supplied into the through hole of the rotary shaft and flowing in the through hole of the motor shaft.

Provided is a rotating electric machine that allows a stator cooling passage to be formed compactly. A passage of a stator cooling refrigerant is formed by a water jacket fitted and fixed to both ends on a base side which is the flange side and a distal end side of a cylindrical portion of a stator frame on an outer circumference of the cylindrical portion, the stator frame has a difference between a diameter on the base side and a diameter on the distal end side, the diameter on the base side being formed to be larger, and the stator frame and the water jacket are sealed by press fitting and welding on the base side and the distal end side.
