Frequency converter assembly having converter housing attached through intermediate component to motor housing

摘要

A frequency converter assembly includes a frequency converter, a motor, and an intermediate component. The frequency converter includes a converter housing with an opening. The motor includes a motor having a motor housing with a terminal block. The intermediate component is attached to the motor housing around the terminal block and is attached to the converter housing such that the intermediate component is between the housings with the terminal block being accessible through the opening of the converter housing.

主权项

1. A frequency converter assembly comprising:
a frequency converter having a converter housing including a lower converter housing part and a circuit board within the lower converter housing part, the circuit board having electronic components for the frequency converter, an underside of the lower converter housing part having an opening, the circuit board being positioned within the lower converter housing part offset to a side of the opening on the underside of the lower converter housing part; a motor having a motor housing with a fitting, the motor further having a terminal block having terminal contacts, the terminal block attached directly to the fitting of the motor housing with electrical lines from the motor connected within the motor housing to the terminal block; and an intermediate terminal box component around the terminal block and attached, separate from the attachment between the terminal block and the fitting of the motor housing, to the fitting of the motor housing and attached to the lower converter housing part such that the terminal block is accessible through the opening on the underside of the lower converter housing part without the circuit board interfering with the accessibility of the terminal block due to the circuit board being positioned within the lower converter housing part offset to the side of the opening on the underside of the lower converter housing part to enable electrical lines from the circuit board to be connected to and released from the terminal contacts subsequent to the intermediate terminal box component being attached to the lower housing converter part and prior to a housing cover being placed onto the lower converter housing part.
