Motor-Driven Compressor

摘要

A securing means for an insulating member that is advantageous in improving the efficiency of assembly of a motor-driven compressor is provided. Phase wires 35U, 35V, 35W extending from an end face 231 of a stator core 23, which is closer to a compression mechanism P, are bound to form a phase wire bundle 36. The distal ends of the phase wires 35U, 35V, 35W are electrically connected together, so that a wire connecting portion 361 is formed at the distal end of the phase wire bundle 36. The wire connecting portion 361, which serves as a neutral point, is coated with an insulating tube 37 made of insulating plastic. The distal end of the insulating tube 37 is sealed. A receiving hole 38 is formed in the cluster block 32. The insulating tube 37 is fitted in the receiving hole 38. The insulating tube 37 is inserted from an entrance 381 of the receiving hole 38 that is located on an end face 322 of the cluster block 32 facing the compression mechanism P. The insulating tube 37 is secured to the cluster block 32 by contacting an inner surface 382 of the receiving hole 38.
