A safety device for a vehicle can include an impulse sensor configured to sense an impact to the vehicle and generate an impulse signal based on the impact, a compressor configured to compress refrigerant for a refrigeration cycle of the vehicle, and a safety valve connected to the compressor and configured to receive the impulse signal from the impulse sensor, and in response to the impulse signal exceeding a predetermined value, open the safety valve to place an inner space of the compressor in communication with an outside of the compressor for discharging the refrigerant outside the vehicle.

Systems and techniques are disclosed to sense a temperature and a flow rate of oil in a compressor. A compressor includes: a casing; a frame on the casing; a fixed scroll on the frame; an orbiting scroll supported by the frame and defining a compression chamber while engaging the fixed scroll; and a crank shaft. The crank shaft transfers, to the orbiting scroll, a rotational force of a motor. The casing includes: a main housing including a refrigerant discharge passage and an oil passing passage; and a sub-housing including a refrigerant discharge port and an oil channel, which includes an oil reservoir, that each face the main housing. A sensor module attached to a sensor receptor in the sub-housing includes: a sensor housing covering the sensor receptor; and an oil sensor and a temperature sensor located on the sensor housing that each protrude towards the oil reservoir.

An inverter stack includes an enclosure on which an inlet port is formed at a lower end thereof and an outlet port is formed at an upper end thereof, the enclosure defining an internal space, a heat sink having a switching element, disposed within an upper region of the internal space, and a plurality of DC-link capacitors disposed within the internal space and below the heat sink. Through this, heat generated in high heat dissipation components is immediately moved upward by convection, thereby suppressing the damage of components due to high temperature.
