Abstract
An electric pump includes a case, and a motor that includes a rotor and a stator and is surrounded by the case. The case includes an introduction pipe portion for introducing a fluid and a discharge pipe portion for discharging the fluid. The rotor is disposed in a space surrounded by the case and the stator and communicating with the introduction pipe portion and the discharge pipe portion. The rotor includes a first blade member, a second blade member, and a relay portion. An outer diameter of the relay portion is smaller than an outer diameter of at least one of the first and second blade members. The relay portion is positioned between the first blade member and the second blade member.
