1. An inner-rotor electric motor comprising:
- a stationary section having an armature, the armature furnished with a core formed by laminating a plurality of thin sheets;
a rotary section having a field magnet, for generating between itself and said armature torque centering on a predetermined center axis; and
a bearing mechanism for rotatably supporting, with the center axis as enter, the rotary section with respect to the stationary section;
said armature comprising;
a plurality of teeth disposed with the teeth fore edges directed toward the center axis, in a radial pattern with the center axis as center,a support ring for supporting said plurality of teeth along their outer side,a tooth insulator covering at least the lateral sides of said plurality of teeth, said tooth insulator including a top member attached to said plurality of teeth over their upper end in the orientation paralleling the center axis, and a bottom member attached to said plurality of teeth over their lower end in the orientation paralleling the center axis, wherein said top member and said bottom member interlink along the orientation paralleling the center axis,coils in which conductors are wound over said tooth insulator, around said plurality of teeth, anda plurality of outer-side insulators interdigitated with the plural teeth and therein covering the inner circumferential surface of the support ring, said outer-side insulators for electrically isolating the exterior side of said coils from said support ring.

Abstract
An insulator covering the teeth (31) of an armature (3) in an inner-rotor motor is composed of a tooth insulator (321), outer-side insulator (322), upper-end insulator (323), and lower-end insulator (324). The tooth insulator (321) is composed of substantially annular top and bottom members that are assembled from above and below to the teeth (31).
