1. A brush motor comprising:
a rotor core provided in a rotor;
s teeth provided in the rotor core;
s concentrated-winding coils with electric wires being respectively wound around the teeth, the number of the concentrated-winding coils being equal to the number of the teeth;
a commutator provided on the rotor in a relatively non-rotatable manner;
c commutator pieces provided in the commutator and connected to the s concentrated-winding coils;
p pairs of magnet magnetic poles provided on a stator and arranged to face the teeth; and
a brush that is brought into sliding contact with the commutator pieces to supply a current to the s concentrated-winding coils,
wherein following Inequality A and Inequality B hold:
0.5<p/s<1,  (Inequality A); and
s<c,  (Inequality B),
the tooth includes a blade formed in a curved surface shape expanding in a rotation direction of the rotor along a surface of the magnet magnetic pole,
the magnet magnetic pole is formed in a curved surface shape facing the blade,
a central angle of a fan shape, surrounded by the blade and line segments connecting both ends of the blade to the rotation axis in a cross section perpendicular to the rotation axis of the rotor, is defined as a blade angle, an angle formed between a magnetized region of one of the magnet magnetic poles and the rotation axis is defined as a magnet angle, and the blade angle is equal to or larger than the magnet angle, and
the magnet magnetic poles are arranged such that orientations of the magnetic fields are reversed between the adjacent magnet magnetic poles in the circumferential direction.
