The present invention provides a counterweight for a compressor, an electric motor, with the counterweight, for a compressor, and a compressor with the electric motor or the counterweight. The counterweight comprises: a first component having an annular shape; a first groove formed in a surface of the first component and having a sidewall and a bottom wall; and a second component disposed in the first groove. With the technical solution according to the present invention, for example, counterbalance requirements are met, while fluid can be prevented from being stirred to cause power loss.

The invention relates to a device for driving a compressor of a vaporous fluid, particularly an electric motor. The device has a rotor and a stator, which are extended along a common longitudinal axis, as well as an insulation element. The insulation element is designed as a single part and connected with a stator core of the stator in a form-fitting manner such that the stator core and the insulation element form an integral and single-part component of the stator. The invention further relates to a method for producing a stator of the device, particularly the stator core with the insulation element.

The stator includes an annular back yoke disposed inside the housing, a plurality of teeth extending radially inward from the back yoke, and a coil wound on the plurality of teeth. The back yoke includes a deformation portion compressed and deformed by the housing while the stator is interference fitted into the inner circumferential surface of the housing, a contact portion which protrudes radially outward from the deformation portion and being in contact with the housing, and a cavity formed on a radial inner side of the deformation portion into which the deformation portion is deformed.

A fluid pressure unit is provided with an inverter (17), a motor (10) controlled by the inverter, a pump (11) driven by the motor to discharge a fluid, a detector (16) configured to detect a pressure of the fluid, a flow rate of the fluid, or both, a controller (20) configured to control the inverter such that a pressure of the pump, a flow rate of the pump, or both becomes a predetermined value based on a detected value by the detector, and a suppressor (33) configured to suppress a change of an output of the inverter caused by a pulsation frequency component of the fluid included in the detected value.

A gerotor pump includes an inner gerotor, a wobble cancellation element, and an outer gerotor disposed radially between the inner gerotor and the wobble cancellation element. The inner gerotor includes a first outer peripheral surface with n first lobes equally spaced from one another in a circumferential direction, and n first depressions, each disposed between an adjacent pair of first lobes. The inner gerotor and the wobble cancellation element are coaxial. The wobble cancellation element includes a first inner peripheral surface with n+1 second lobes equally spaced from one another in the circumferential direction, and n+1 arcuate surfaces, each arranged between an adjacent pair of second lobes. The outer gerotor includes a second outer peripheral surface including n+1 outer depressions complementary to and arranged to engage the second lobes, and a second inner peripheral surface comprising n+1 inner depressions complementary to and arranged to engage the first lobes.

A vehicular electric compressor (1) includes a compressor body (2) that compresses fluid sucked from outside and then discharges the fluid, using electric power as power, a protective component (4) attached on the compressor body (2), and an external attachment leg (3) attached to the compressor body (2) through the protective component (4). The protective component (4) is lower in strength than the external attachment leg (3).

A scroll compressor includes a scroll compression mechanism, a motor, and a casing. The motor includes a stator having a stator core and an insulator, a rotor disposed inside the stator, a coil wound around a plurality of teeth of the stator core via the insulator, and an outgoing line at an end of the coil. When the motor is viewed along a rotation axis of the rotor, at least one of the outgoing line and a film wound around the outgoing line satisfies 0.65<(D1−da)/(D1−D2)<0.95. An outer radius of the teeth centered on a position of the rotation axis of the rotor is D1. An inner radius of the teeth is D2. An average distance from the position of the rotation axis of the rotor to the at least one of the outgoing line and the film wound around the outgoing line is da.

A motor-driven compressor includes an inverter and a housing. The inverter includes three-phase switching elements and a holder that retains the switching elements. The holder is fixed to the housing with fastening members and is configured to push the three-phase switching elements toward a heat dissipating surface of the housing. The three-phase switching elements are arranged along a line segment that connects two of the fastening members. The holder includes a first accommodating portion that accommodates one of the three-phase switching elements that is located in the middle, and two second accommodating portions that respectively accommodate two of the three-phase switching elements that are located at opposite ends. Each of the two second accommodating portions includes a tongue-shaped contact portion that contacts the corresponding switching element. The contact portions are configured to be deformed to reduce a pushing force of the holder acting on the switching elements.

One aspect of a pump of the present invention includes a rotor rotatable about a central axis, a stator assembly located radially outside the rotor and surrounding the rotor, a pump unit connected to a first side in an axial direction of the rotor, a support member including a rotor accommodating portion, the rotor accommodating portion being located radially inside the stator assembly and accommodates the rotor therein, and a resin housing in which the stator assembly and the support member are molded. The rotor accommodating portion includes a lid portion that covers the rotor from a second side in the axial direction, and a tubular portion that is located between the rotor and the stator assembly in a radial direction and is open to the first side in the axial direction. The stator assembly includes a stator core having an annular shape, a plurality of coils mounted on the stator core, and a stator cover that covers the plurality of coils.

A compressor includes a tubular shape casing, a compression mechanism adjacent one end of the casing in the casing, a motor arranged adjacent another end of the casing in the casing, a suction pipe opening between the compression mechanism and the motor, a gas flow path formed between the motor and an inner peripheral surface of the casing, and a gas guide facing an open end of the suction pipe. The gas flow path allows internal regions of the casing adjacent axial ends of the motor to communicate with each other. The gas guide includes a first flow path configured to guide a portion of a gas that has passed through the suction pipe toward the compression mechanism, and a second flow path configured to guide a remaining portion of the gas that has passed through the suction pipe toward the gas flow path.
