  • Patent number: 12149124
    Abstract: A compressor includes a rotor that is fixed to a shaft, a stator that rotates the rotor about an axis of rotation, and a compressor part that compresses a refrigerant by the shaft rotating, wherein the rotor has a rotor core in which a refrigerant hole is formed, a first magnet that is embedded in the rotor core, and a second magnet that is embedded in the rotor core, an interior wall surface of the refrigerant hole includes a first portion that is formed on a side close to the first magnet, a second portion that is formed on a side close to the second magnet, and a magnet-side intermediate interior wall surface portion that is formed between the first portion and the second portion, and the magnet-side intermediate interior wall surface portion is closer to the axis of rotation than the first portion and the second portion.

  • Patent number: 12021429
    Abstract: In insulators of a motor, in an external wall portion, the outer diameter sides of winding drum portions represent winding-drum-portion-side external wall portions, and the outer diameter sides of the opening portions represent opening-portion-side external wall portions; and the winding-drum-portion-side external wall portions have such a thickness in a radial direction that, in the axial direction of a stator, the leading end sides far from the stator are smaller than the base end sides close to the stator, and the thickness of the base end sides of the winding-drum-portion-side external wall portions is greater than the thickness of the opening-portion-side external wall portions.

  • Publication number: 20240146137
    Abstract: A three-phase electric motor includes a stator iron core, an insulator, and a plurality of coils. The coils are wound around teeth of the stator iron core and a winding body of the insulator. Among the plurality of coils, coils in the same phase are connected by series connection and are formed by one lead wire including connecting wires. A plurality of slits for allowing the connecting wires to pass are formed in the insulator. A deepest slit having the largest depth among the plurality of slits is provided such that at least a part of the deepest slit is located further on an outer side in a circumferential direction than an extension region obtained by virtually extending a corresponding deep groove-winding body, around which a corresponding deep groove-coil from which the connecting wires passing through the deepest slit are drawn is wound, to an outer diameter side.

  • Patent number: 11784525
    Abstract: A rotor that gives rotational power to a compressor part that compresses refrigerant has a rotor core in which through-holes through which the refrigerant passes are formed, the through-holes having a cross section with a plurality of forks in a direction away from a rotation axis, a first end plate that covers a first end surface where one end of both end portions of the through-holes of the rotor core closer to the compressor part is formed, and an upper rotor end plate that covers a lower rotor end surface where the other end of the plurality of holes of the rotor core is formed. The first end plate has a first opening portion that causes the through-holes to communicate with an internal space. The upper rotor end plate has an upper opening portion that causes the through-holes to communicate with the internal space. The upper rotor end plate has projection portions that cover tip end portions, which are divided to respective forks, of the through-holes.
