Switched reluctance motor

A switched reluctance motor comprising:

• a rotor part including a rotor core having a shaft fixedly coupled to the center thereof and a plurality of rotor poles formed to be protruded from the rotor core;
• a stator part having the rotor part rotatably received therein and a plurality of stator salient poles formed to be protruded from the stator yoke so as to face the rotor poles;
• a balancing part selectively coupled to an upper portion or a lower portion of the rotor part and having a plurality of sensing grooves formed in an outer peripheral surface thereof;
• a motor housing provided with an opening part through which the shaft penetrates and coupled to an outer side of the stator part so as to enclose the entire stator part;
• and
• a position detecting unit disposed between the rotor part and the stator part and coupled to an inner portion of the motor housing in order to sense sides of the sensing grooves based on the shaft.
