  • Patent number: 12027796
    Abstract: A sealing-and-insulating arrangement for guiding electrical connections through a housing. The sealing-and-insulating arrangement exhibits a connection arrangement with at least one electrically conductive connecting element and a retaining element, as well as a support element with a mounting element with a connection pass-through that is enclosed by a wall. Here, the connecting element is arranged in such a way that it is enclosed by the retaining element and has both a form and fluid-tight connection to the retaining element via a form element and that the connecting element projects beyond the retaining element with a first and a second section. The connecting element is arranged such that its first section projects through the connection pass-through and into the mounting element.

  • Publication number: 20240146147
    Abstract: A sealing arrangement for passing electrical connections through a wall of a casing for a device for driving a compressor. The sealing arrangement has a connection arrangement with at least one electrically conductive connecting element and a holding element. The at least one connecting element is arranged within a through hole formed in the holding element and through a feedthrough hole of the casing so as to protrude into a volume enclosed by the casing. The holding element is formed as an injection-molded component made of a plastic. A joining element is arranged between the holding element and the at least one connecting element, which full-circumferentially encloses the at least one connecting element. As a result, the holding element full-circumferentially encloses the joining element.
