A rotor includes magnets and a core including arcuately arranged pole segments. Each pole segment includes first and second prongs that extend away from the rotor axis and are at least in part arcuately spaced apart to define a cutout therebetween. Each pair of arcuately adjacent pole segments defines therebetween a respective magnet-receiving slot, with the first prong of one of the pole segments and the second prong of the other of the pole segments defining the slot. The magnets are received in slots, such that each of the magnets is at least in part interposed between one of the pairs of adjacent pole segments. The magnets and the pole segments are dimensioned and configured so that at least one of the first and second prongs is deflected by the magnet received in the respective slot, such that the prongs cooperatively apply a clamping force on the magnet.

A brushless DC motor includes a stator, a rotor, and motor terminals mounted on the stator. Each motor terminal includes a planar portion extending circumferentially from the end insulator, a wire-receiving member extending from a first end of the planar portion and folded over an outer surface of the planar portion away from the center axis of the stator at an angle of less than 90 degrees, and a tab portion extending from a second end of the planar portion parallel to the center axis of the stator. A circuit board is disposed adjacent the motor including power switches mounted thereon for energizing the stator windings. Slots are formed in the circuit board to align with and securely receive the tab portions of the motor terminals, thus electrically connecting the motor terminals to the power switches.
