## Abstract

A stator includes a first core that includes a first tooth extending in a first radial direction and a first core back extending in a circumferential direction and a second core that includes a second tooth extending in a second radial direction and a second core back extending in the circumferential direction. The first core back includes a depression formed with at least a first face and a second face in an outer peripheral surface of the first core back and a connection part facing the second core back. The stator satisfies θ1<θ2, where θ1 represents an angle between the first face and the first radial direction and θ2 represents an angle between the second face and the first radial direction.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A stator comprising:
a first core that includes a first tooth extending in a first radial direction and a first core back extending in a circumferential direction; and
a second core that includes a second tooth extending in a second radial direction and a second core back extending in the circumferential direction and connects with the first core, wherein
the first core back includes:
a depression formed with at least a first face and a second face in an outer peripheral surface of the first core back; and
a connection part facing the second core back,
the stator satisfies θ1<θ2 and α1≤θ1<90 degrees where
θ1 represents an angle between the first face and the first radial direction in a plane perpendicular to an axial direction,
θ2 represents an angle between the second face and the first radial direction in the plane, and
α1 (degrees) represents an angle between the connection part and the first radial direction in the plane, and
the second face of the depression is formed at a position where a straight line passes through a center of the first tooth in the first radial direction in the plane.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The stator according to claim 1, wherein
the stator comprises a plurality of teeth including the first tooth and the second tooth, and
the angle α1 is 360/2n degrees, where n represents the number of the plurality of teeth.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The stator according to claim 1, wherein
the second core back includes a depression formed with at least two faces.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The stator according to claim 1, wherein
an angle between the first face and the second face is 90 degrees in the plane.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The stator according to claim 1, wherein
in the plane, an intersection point of an extension line of the first face and an extension line of the second face is deviated from a center of the first tooth in a direction perpendicular to the first radial direction.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The stator according to claim 1, further comprising
a third core that includes a third tooth extending in a third radial direction and a third core back extending in the circumferential direction and connects with at least one of the first core or the second core, wherein
the third core includes a depression formed with at least three faces in an outer peripheral surface of the third core back.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

A motor comprising:
the stator according to claim 1; and
a rotor rotatably disposed inside the stator.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The motor according to claim 7, wherein
the first core and the second core are covered by a resin formed of a nonmagnetic material.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)
