• a field coil that is disposed on the magnetic pole core;
• and
• a cooling fan that is fixed to the magnetic pole core,
• wherein:
• the cooling fan comprises:
• a base portion that is fixed to an axial end surface of the magnetic pole core;
• and
• a plurality of vane portions that protrude axially from the base portion;
• a plurality of jamming suppressing portions that suppresses jamming together of cooling fans when one of the cooling fans is stacked on another of the cooling fans, disposed on the base portion;
• the jamming suppressing portions being disposed at different positions in a circumferential direction of the base portion;
• and
• the jamming suppressing portions being disposed at corners of portions of edge portions of the base portion where the vane portions are separated.
