A sealed terminal device for a motor-driven compressor has an electrically insulating terminal holder () to be attached to the housing wall () of the motor-driven compressor, a plurality of sealed terminals () held in the terminal holder (), for penetrating the housing wall () with play to the housing wall (), and a groove () or cavity () formed in the terminal holder () to increase a creepage distance for insulation between the sealed terminals.

Sealed terminal device for motor-driven compressor

An electric compressor provided with an integral inverter, incorporated with a motor and provided in a receiving space surrounded by a compressor housing with a motor drive circuit that includes the inverter. At least some of electric parts including the motor drive circuit are covered by a resin charged into the receiving space, and a part of a region which is in the receiving space and into which the resin can be charged is filled with a light-weight material different from the charged resin. In the structure of the resin covering section for such a motor drive circuit, the amount of resin charged is significantly reduced, and the entire compressor is reduced in weight and cost.

Electric compressor with integral inverter

Disclosed are a shield structural body, a connector assembly and connector structural body using the shield structural body, a casing assembly having the connector assembly, and an electric compressor having the casing assembly. The shield structural body is formed of an electrically conductive material and has a tube section, a ground electrode terminal formed electrically integrally with the tube section, claw sections integrally formed with the tube section, projected at least either radially outward or inward from the tube section, and engageable with a shield structural body holding member. The shield structural body can be produced at low cost, the connector assembly can provide high productivity and can be produced at low cost, the connector structural body is highly reliable, the casing assembly using the connector assembly is highly versatile, and the electric compressor having the casing assembly can easily cope with model changes.
