A controlling device of a compressor is provided. A noise filter is arranged at an input of the inverter circuit that converts the commercial frequency to a driving frequency to control a motor driving a compressor mechanism, for suppressing a common mode noise of the commercial power source and the inverter circuit, and is connected to a ground through a metal frame used for receiving a compressor main body. The noise filter comprises coils connected between first capacitors and second capacitors that are connected in series between the AC power lines, and further comprises a clamper connected between nodes of the second capacitors and the metal frame for clamping a voltage and a third capacitor connected to the clamper in parallel. even though the new refrigerant, such as R410A, and the three-phase AC power source are used, the leakage current can be reduced by a simple structure and the increase of the noise terminal voltage can be also suppressed. Furthermore, both of the legal regulation requirements can be met.

Controlling device of compressor

An apparatus for protecting an inverter against over current is constructed of a plurality of switching devices connected between the positive and negative terminals of a DC power source. The apparatus has a plurality of detecting devices that convert the currents passing through the plurality of switching devices into voltages and generate detection outputs, a plurality of amplifier circuits, a plurality of comparing devices that supply the detection outputs of the detecting devices to the amplifier circuits and generate an abnormality output if an absolute value of a detection output exceeds a predetermined value, and a protecting device that interrupts the drive of all switching devices if any of the comparing devices issues an abnormality output.

Inverter protecting apparatus

A motor apparatus, such as a DC brushless motor, is provided for the obtaining a position detection signal by detecting the intersection of the divided voltage of a bus voltage and three phases of the divided voltage of the three phases by a comparator which results in the central position of a flat portion. For the divided voltage for the three phases of the respective positive terminal of the comparator, the comparison voltage obtained by dividing the voltage between the divided voltage for the three phases of the following phase in the order and the divided voltage of the bus voltage is applied to the respective negative terminal. As the comparison voltage is phase shifted, the position can be detected by making a slant position ahead of the flat point of the intersection. When the comparison voltage obtained by dividing the voltage between the divided voltage for the three phases of the preceding phase in the order and the divided voltage of the bus voltage is applied to the respective negative terminal, as the phase is shifted in the opposite direction, the position can be detected by making a slant position near the flat point of the intersection. Thereby, the motor apparatus having an intersection whose position is to be detected, can be detected precisely even when the intersection is a flat crossing and is unclear.

Motor apparatus

A freon compressor comprises a compressor device and an electromotor device. The electromotor device is used for driving the compressor device and consists of a stator and a rotor rotating within the stator. The stator further consists of a stator core and stator windings wired on the stator core, and a three-phase sine alternating current waveform is applied to the stator windings. Therefore, the magnetic lines of force of the electromotor device are stabilized in space and time and noise is significantly reduced.
