An electric compressor for compressing a gas, particularly configured for use in a motor vehicle, comprising a control unit, an electric motor controlled by the control unit, a compressor wheel driven by the electric motor, and a housing at least partially surrounding the electric motor. The housing is produced by an encapsulation method such that a cooling structure is formed integrally with the housing, in particular within the housing, for ensuring cooling of the electric motor and of the control unit. A method for producing the electric compressor of this kind is also disclosed.

Electric compressor and method for producing an electric compressor

An electric compressor for compressing a gas, and in particular, an electric compressor for a motor vehicle comprising a compressor wheel, an electric motor, wherein the compressor wheel can be driven by the electric motor, a control unit, wherein the electric motor can be controlled by the control unit, and a housing having at least one open end for receiving the control unit. The housing has at least one recess on the inner circumference at the open end that is designed so as to be open in the direction of the housing interior. The control unit can be inserted into the housing in such a way that it closes the open end of the housing and the recess on the inner circumference.
