a rotor disposed at an inner-peripheral side of the stator and rotatably supported.
2. The motor according to claim 1, wherein
the plurality of stator core pieces include an inclined face, the inclined face is formed on the side portion on which the claw portion is not formed, and the inclined face causes the width of the teeth portion to be decreased in a direction from a radial-outer side toward radial-inner side of the plurality of stator core formed in a cylindrical shaped.
3. The motor according to claim 1, wherein
the coils includes a first portion and a second portion that is opposite to the first portion;
in two slot portions, the first portion is inserted into one of the slot portions, and the second portion is inserted into the other of the slot portions; and
in two coils that are adjacent to each other and have the same phase, the first portion of one of the coils and the second portion of the other of the coils are inserted into one slot portion.
4. The motor according to claim 3, wherein
each of the plurality of stator core pieces has the claw portion that is formed only at one of two side portions at the distal end portion of the teeth portion;
the claw portion has a side face facing the slot portion;
the side face has a first inclined face and a second inclined face, the first inclined face being formed toward a distal end of the claw portion from the teeth portion, and the second inclined face being consecutively connected and formed so as to extend toward the distal end of the claw portion; and
an angle between the first inclined face and a side face of the slot portion is less than an angle between the second inclined face and the side face of the slot portion.
5. The motor according to claim 3, further comprising:
a step portion formed on an inner peripheral face facing the slot portion in the yoke portion, wherein
in two coils that are adjacent to each other, have the same phase, and constitutes each of the first coil, the second coil, and the third coil, the position of the first portion of one of the coils is shifted from the position of the second portion of the other of the coils in a radial direction.
6. The motor according to claim 5, wherein
each of the plurality of stator core pieces has the claw portion that is formed only at one of two side portions at the distal end portion of the teeth portion;
the claw portion has a side face facing the slot portion;
the side face has a first inclined face and a second inclined face, the first inclined face being formed toward a distal end of the claw portion from the teeth portion, and the second inclined face being consecutively connected and formed so as to extend toward the distal end of the claw portion; and
an angle between the first inclined face and a side face of the slot portion is less than an angle between the second inclined face and the side face of the slot portion.
The claims below are in addition to those above.
All refrences to claim(s) which appear below refer to the numbering after this setence.
1.-20. (canceled)
21. A method for organizing information for a plurality of data items which are being tracked in a computing device of the type which is capable of exchanging information with a communications center, comprising:
tracking a plurality of data items at the communications center that comprises a subset of available data items;
maintaining a data list at the communications center, which includes information for all of the plurality of data items being tracked; and
sending the data list to the computing device.
22. The method of claim 21, further comprising receiving from a user an instruction at the communications center defining at least one category tag for each of the plurality of data items being tracked.
23. The method of claim 21, wherein the data list is limited to a predetermined number of data items.
24. The method of claim 23, further comprising displaying on the data list a first number which indicates a running total of the number of items in the data list.
25. The method of claim 24, further comprising displaying a second number which indicates the predetermined number of items permitted in the data list.
26. The method of claim 21, further comprising updating the data lists by the communications center with at least one user defined category tag for each of the plurality of data items being tracked.
27. The method of claim 26, wherein sending the data list to the computing device comprises sending the updated data list.
28. The method of claim 21, further comprising receiving updates to the data list items being tracked, wherein the updates are generated by the computing device.
29. The method of claim 21, wherein the data items comprise securities.
