Inverter device and electric compressor
An inverter unit includes a circuit board that has a power device and a capacitor configuring an inverter circuit and provided on a front surface and an exposure region provided on a rear surface, a lower case that is provided with an exposure opening for exposing the exposure region and supports a surrounding area of the exposure region, and an upper case that is provided with a rib structure pressed against the front surface of the circuit board and pressurizing the circuit board toward the lower case and has the lower case attached thereto. The circuit board is sandwiched between the lower case and the upper case.
1. An inverter device comprising:
a circuit board configured to have an inverter circuit provided on a front surface and a heat dissipation portion provided on a rear surface;
a first case portion configured to be provided with an opening portion for exposing the heat dissipation portion and to support a surrounding area of the heat dissipation portion; and
a second case portion configured to be provided with a rib structure pressed against the front surface of the circuit board and pressurizing the circuit board toward the first case portion side and to have the first case portion attached thereto,
wherein the circuit board is sandwiched between the first case portion and the second case portion.
2. The inverter device according to claim 1 further comprising:
a first seal member configured to be interposed between the rear surface of the circuit board and a front surface of the first case portion; and
a second seal member configured to be interposed between the front surface of the first case portion and a rear surface of the second case portion.
3. The inverter device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first case portion is attached to the rear surface of the second case portion, and an opening portion is provided thereon,
wherein the second case portion has a bus bar electrically connected to the circuit board, and
wherein the bus bar is pressed against the front surface of the circuit board.
4. An electric compressor comprising:
the inverter device according to claim 1 ; and
a casing configured to have an inverter accommodation portion accommodating the inverter device,
wherein the inverter accommodation portion includes a heat sink to which the heat dissipation portion of the circuit board in the inverter device is thermally connected.
