1. In a stepping motor comprising:
- (a) a housing comprising a pair of can-type stator yokes each of which is provided with a toothed portion in an inner surface thereof for forming a plurality of magnetic poles;
(b) a rotor provided in said housing;
(c) a pair of coils disposed around said rotor in said housing; and
(d) a flat-type stator yoke provided with a toothed portion forming a plurality of magnetic poles which correspond to those of said toothed portions of said can-type stator yokes, said flat-type stator yoke being disposed in said housing;
the improvement comprising;
(e) both of said can-type stator yokes being injection molded yokes formed of an injection molded composite powder in which a metal powder of a soft magnetic material is mixed with a powder of a thermoplastic synthetic resin; and
(f) said flat-type stator yoke being a one-piece, integrated injection molded yoke formed of an injection molded composite powder in which a metal powder of a soft magnetic material is mixed with a powder of a thermoplastic synthetic resin which is the same as that of said can-type stator yokes, and said flat-type stator yoke being provided with its magnetic poles extending from opposite sides thereof and having its magnetic poles correspond to those of said can-type stator yokes.

Abstract
A small-sized stepping motor provided with can-type stator yokes and one flat-type stator yoke, all of which are injection molded of a composite powder (i.e., a mixture of a metal powder of a soft magnetic material, a powder of a thermoplastic synthetic resin). The injection molded stator yokes have a considerably large specific electrical resistance, and the stepping motor is free from various disadvantages resulting from a small specific electric resistance.
