Abstract
A rotor (101) for a permanent magnet machine comprises a shaft portion (102), a core portion (103) surrounding the shaft portion, permanent magnets (104, 105) on an outer surface of the core portion, and pole elements (106) on top of the permanent magnets so that the permanent magnets are between the core portion and the pole elements The rotor comprises tension elements (107) having first edges shape locked to axially directed grooves of the core portion and second edges shape locked to axially directed grooves of the pole elements. Each tension element has tensile stress between its first and second edges, and thus the tension elements pull the pole elements against the permanent magnets. Each tension element can be for example an axially directed I-profile bar, and thus the tension element can be mechanically stronger than a row of bolts having a corresponding room usage in the circumferential direction.
