Inverter-integrated electric compressor
View Patent ↗Provided is an inverter-integrated electric compressor wherein the attachability of a coil component has been improved while reliability of a connection state at the electrical joints is ensured by simplifying a mechanism which electrically connects the coil component, such as one for removing electromagnetic noise, to a motor drive circuit. An inverter-integrated electric compressor, wherein a motor drive circuit including an inverter is surrounded by a compressor housing, is characterized in that a coil component comprising a plurality of conductor wires wound in parallel is attached to the motor drive circuit through a seat, the seat is provided with a protrusion which can be fitted into a seat affixing hole provided in a case member for housing the motor drive circuit, a plurality of terminal holes are arranged in the portion where the protrusion is provided, the plurality of conductor wires pulled out from the coil component are inserted, in a one-to-one correspondence, into the plurality of terminal holes in such a manner that the mutual interval between the wires is widened, and the end of each conductor wire is connected electrically to the motor drive circuit.
1. An inverter-integrated electric compressor, comprising:
a compressor housing;
a motor incorporated in the housing;
a motor drive circuit including an inverter;
a case member in the housing and configured to accommodate said motor drive circuit, the case member having a seat-affixing hole and a seat provided with a a protrusion fitted into the seat-affixing hole; and
a coil component comprising a plurality of conductor wires attached to said motor drive circuit through a plurality of terminal holes in the seat,
wherein the plurality of terminal holes are arranged in a portion of the seat at which said protrusion is provided, said conductor wires from said coil component being inserted, in a one-to-one correspondence, into said plurality of terminal holes in such a manner that a mutual interval between said conductor wires is widened by the insertion, the protrusion protruding from the seat in a direction of insertion of said conductor wires, and an end of each conductor wire being connected electrically to said motor drive circuit.
2. The inverter-integrated electric compressor according to claim 1 , wherein said end of each said conductor wire is joined with a bus bar provided in said motor drive circuit.
3. The inverter-integrated electric compressor according to claim 2 , wherein each said terminal hole is perforated as biased to a side of said bus bar in said portion of the seat at which said protrusion is provided, and said conductor wire is exposed at said side of said bus bar in said portion at which said protrusion is provided.
4. The inverter-integrated electric compressor according to claim 2 , wherein a plurality of protrusions for joining are provided at a tip of said bus bar.
5. The inverter-integrated electric compressor according to claim 2 , wherein said joining is performed by a TIG welding.
6. The inverter-integrated electric compressor according to claim 1 , wherein a peripheral part of an aperture of each said terminal hole at a side of said coil component is chamfered.
7. The inverter-integrated electric compressor according to claim 1 , wherein the compressor is a compressor adapted for automotive air conditioning systems.
