Abstract: A motor-driven compressor and a housing for the motor-driven compressor are provided. A power line connector and a communication line connector are arranged on an external surface of a housing. A first terminal of an interlocking communication line is located in the power line connector. A second terminal of the interlocking communication line is located in the communication line connector. The interlocking communication line is routed on the external surface from the first terminal to the second terminal.

Abstract: A motor-driven compressor includes a compression unit, an electric motor, a motor controller, a housing, and a connector. The motor controller includes a circuit board. The housing includes an inverter accommodation chamber, and the inverter accommodation chamber accommodates the motor controller. The connector is accommodated in the inverter accommodation chamber and electrically connects the circuit board and a member located outside the inverter accommodation chamber. The connector includes one or more busbars and a case. The one or more busbars are electrically connected to the circuit board. The case is formed from a resin and accommodates the one or more busbars. The circuit board and the connector are fastened to the housing. The one or more busbars are allowed to move in the case when the circuit board vibrates.

Abstract: An electric compressor includes: a compression mechanism; a motor mechanism; an inverter; a housing accommodating the compression mechanism, the motor mechanism, and the inverter; and a power supplier. The power supplier includes a connector and a cable extending toward an outside of the housing. The connector includes a first protrusion extending toward the outside of the housing. The first protrusion includes an end surface that has an insertion hole into which the cable is inserted, and a side surface that cylindrically extends and is connected to the end surface. A second protrusion is formed integrally with the side surface and extends downward from the side surface in a gravity direction corresponding to a direction in which the gravity is applied to the housing. A water droplet having reached the insertion hole along the cable is guided from the insertion hole to the second protrusion along the end surface.

Abstract: An electric compressor includes a cylindrical motor housing, an inverter case, and a conductive member. The inverter case is joined to an end portion of the motor housing. The inverter case includes a cylindrical case peripheral wall surrounding the end portion. The end portion has an end face that extends in a radial direction of the motor housing and a peripheral surface that extends in an axial direction of the motor housing and is connected to the end face. A ring-shaped sealing member is disposed between the peripheral surface and the case peripheral wall. An accommodation groove for accommodating the sealing member is recessed in the peripheral surface. The sealing member is held by the peripheral surface and the case peripheral wall in a radial direction of the sealing member to seal a space in which the conductive member is disposed.

Abstract: Connectors are each integrated with a holder in a state in which bus bars are projected. A first projection and a second projection of the holder are respectively inserted in a first insertion hole and a second insertion hole in a circuit substrate. This determines positions of the holder and the circuit substrate relative to each other. The holder has coil lead wire insertion holes, capacitor lead wire insertion holes, and element lead wire insertion holes. These insertion holes extend in the same direction as the direction in which the bus bars project from the holder.

Abstract: An electric compressor includes a housing, an inverter, an inverter case, a case bottom wall, and a case peripheral wall. The inverter case has a seal peripheral wall. The seal peripheral wall has a cylindrical shape and extends from the case bottom wall in a direction opposite to a direction in which the case peripheral wall extends. The seal peripheral wall surrounds a part of an outer peripheral surface of the housing. A seal member having an annular shape seals a gap between an inner peripheral surface of the seal peripheral wall and the outer peripheral surface of the housing.

Abstract: An electric compressor includes an inverter, a housing with an opening, an inverter connector, a power connector, and a cable that electrically connects both connectors. The housing accommodates the inverter. The inverter connector includes a cover, an outer sealing member, and an inner sealing member. The cover includes an insertion hole through which the cable is inserted, and is disposed in the opening so as to position the cable in the opening. The outer sealing member is interposed between the opening and the cover. The inner sealing member is interposed between the insertion hole and the cable. The insertion hole includes a restriction portion that restricts a movement of the cable, and a fitting portion that is located closer to the inverter than the restriction portion and in which the inner sealing member is fitted. The insertion hole is narrower at the restriction portion than at the fitting portion.
