Rotating electrical machine

An electric motor including a rotatable armature, a stator having a plurality of circumferentially spaced pole teeth which extend substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of the armature, a magnetic circuit closure body having two axial ends magnetically connecting said teeth and extending axially along said axis, and a plurality of coils for generating a magnetic force in said teeth, the improvement comprising in that each said coil is positioned in a circumferential space between circumferentially adjacent teeth, in that said coils are circumferentially spaced from each other at a predetermined angle dependent upon the number of phases of excitation, in that each said coil has portions surrounding the two axial ends of said magnetic circuit closure body in radially extending planes and portions surrounding the circumferential surface of said magnetic closure body in axially extending planes and in that said pole teeth comprise strips arranged in radially extending planes.
