Motor-driven compressor and method for manufacturing the same

摘要

A motor-driven compressor (10) includes an electric motor (19) having a stator core (26), a compression mechanism (18) driven by the electric motor (19), a motor housing (12) accommodating the electric motor (19) , and a cluster block (61) engaged with the stator core (26) in the motor housing (19) . The stator core (26) of the electric motor (19) and the motor housing (12) are assembled by shrink fit. The cluster block (61) accommodates a connecting terminal (31) for electrical connection between a conductor (54) connected to a motor drive circuit (52) and a lead wire (30) drawn from the electric motor (19). The cluster block (61) has a terminal hole (65) for receiving the connecting terminal (31) and has an opening (66, 67) that is provided separately from the terminal hole (65). A mehod for manufacturing the motor-driven compressor (10) applyng heating and cooling of the motor housing is also disclosed.
