Inverter terminal block installed in motor case
View Patent ↗In a terminal block 10 which is interposed between a motor case 100 and an inverter case 200 placed in the motor case 100 and connects a motor input terminal to an inverter output terminal, an upper base 10 U for accommodating an inverter side connecting terminal 20 T connected to the inverter output terminal is fixed to the inverter case 200 , and a lower base 10 D for accommodating a motor side connecting terminal 20 M is fixed to the motor case 100 , and a waterproof and elastic member 60 is interposed between the upper base 10 U and the lower base 10 D and the motor side connecting terminal 20 M is connected to the inverter side connecting terminal 20 T by a flexible conductive member (a braided wire) 20 H.
1. A terminal block which is interposed between a motor case and an inverter case placed in the motor case and electrically connects a motor input terminal to an inverter output terminal, the terminal block comprising:
an upper base for accommodating an inverter side connecting terminal connected to the inverter output terminal, the upper base being fixed to the inverter case;
a lower base for accommodating a motor side connecting terminal connected to the motor input terminal, the lower base being fixed to the motor case;
a waterproof and elastic member interposed between the upper base and the lower base such that the upper base does not contact the lower base; and
a flexible conductive member configured to electrically connect the motor side connecting terminal to the inverter side connecting terminal,
wherein the waterproof and elastic member comprises an opening into which a connecting part between the motor side connecting terminal and the flexible conductive member is inserted, and
wherein a portion of the flexible conductive member is disposed in the opening formed in the waterproof and elastic member.
2. The terminal block as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a waterproof rubber stopper is interposed between the upper base and the inverter case.
3. The terminal block as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that a waterproof rubber stopper is interposed between the lower base and the motor case.
4. The terminal block according to claim 1 , wherein the flexible conductive member comprises a braided wire.
5. The terminal block according to claim 1 , wherein the flexible conductive member provides resistance to vibration occurring between the motor side connecting terminal and the inverter side connecting terminal.
6. The terminal block according to claim 1 , wherein the flexible conductive member provides resistance to vibration occurring between the upper base and the lower base.
