Abstract

A resilient shielding member for a device ( 10 ) is disposed in a facing space ( 300 ) between a conductive motor case ( 10 ) of a motor ( 100 ) and an inverter case ( 201 ) of an inverter device ( 200 ). The resilient shielding member surrounds first terminal fittings ( 102 ) and second terminal fittings ( 202 ) connecting the motor ( 100 ) and the inverter device ( 200 ) over the entire circumference and is formed by integrating a waterproofing component ( 11 ) configured to resiliently contact the motor case ( 101 ) and the inverter case ( 201 ) in a liquid-tight manner over the entire circumference and a shielding component ( 13 ) configured to conductively contact the motor case ( 101 ) and the inverter case ( 201 ).

Claims (15)

1. A resilient shielding member for device, comprising:

a waterproofing component configured to resiliently contact a conductive first shield case constituting a first electrical device and a second shield case constituting a second electrical device in a liquid-tight manner over the entire circumference; and

a shielding component configured to conductively contact the first and second shield cases;

wherein the waterproofing component and the shielding component are integrated and disposed in a facing space between the first and second shield cases and surround conductive paths connecting the first and second electrical devices over an entire circumference.

2. The resilient shielding member for device of claim 1 , wherein:

the waterproofing component and the shielding component are formed separately from each other;

the waterproofing component and the shielding component are formed with fitting portions configured to hold the waterproofing component and the shielding component in an assembled state by being fit to each other.

3. The resilient shielding member for device of claim 1 , wherein the waterproofing component and the shielding component are integrated by insert molding.

4. The resilient shielding member for device of claim 1 , wherein the shielding component includes a resilient contact piece configured to contact the first and second shield cases while being resiliently deformed.

5. The resilient shielding member for device of claim 1 , wherein the shielding component contacts the first and second shield cases in a state where the orientation thereof is changed to resiliently deform the waterproofing component.

6. The resilient shielding member for device of claim 2 , wherein the shielding component includes a resilient contact piece configured to contact the first and second shield cases while being resiliently deformed.

7. The resilient shielding member for device of claim 6 , wherein the shielding component contacts the first and second shield cases in a state where the orientation thereof is changed to resiliently deform the waterproofing component.

8. The resilient shielding member for device of claim 1 , wherein the shielding component includes a resilient contact piece configured to contact the first and second shield cases while being resiliently deformed.

9. The resilient shielding member for device of claim 8 , wherein the shielding component contacts the first and second shield cases in a state where the orientation thereof is changed to resiliently deform the waterproofing component.

10. The resilient shielding member for device of claim 1 , wherein the shielding component contacts the first and second shield cases in a state where the orientation thereof is changed to resiliently deform the waterproofing component.
