A controller that controls an electric compressor, which is mounted to a vehicle and configures a two-stage compression refrigeration cycle device, has a deceleration section, an operation stop section, and a restart section. The deceleration section reduces a rotational speed of an electric motor by controlling an AC current which is output to the electric motor, when a two-stage compression mode, in which an intermediate-pressure refrigerant flows into the electric compressor from an intermediate-pressure port, is performed and an operation stop request to stop the electric compressor is made. The operation stop section stops the electric motor after the deceleration section reduces the rotational speed of the electric motor. The restart section restarts the electric compressor when the operation stop request is canceled after the operation stop section stops the electric compressor.

The control unit controls the first and second electric motors so that the torque generated by the first electric motor is greater than the torque generated by the second electric motor.

The present disclosure provides a motor part comprising a bobbin part comprising a plurality of coils housed therein, a first insulation part adjacent to an inner circumferential surface of the motor chamber, and a second insulation part spaced a predetermined distance from the first insulation part. The plurality of coils are housed in a coil housing spare part formed between the first insulation part and the second insulation part. The first insulation part is located between the inner circumferential surface of the motor chamber and the plurality of coils. The plurality of coils are located adjacent to the second insulation part. Accordingly, insulation caused by separation from the inner circumferential surface of the motor chamber and insulation caused by the first insulation part may be expected. The insulation may be achieved by the plurality of coils being housed in the bobbin part.

To reduce the possibility that temperature of refrigerant discharged from a compressor of a refrigeration apparatus becomes excessively high by controlling torque of a motor built into the compressor, the compressor includes the motor having rotation thereof controlled by inverter control.

The controller is configured to operate the compressor in a liquid clearing start mode where electrical current through the motor is prevented from exceeding a predetermined current limit for a period of time not to exceed a predetermined period of time, and is configured to operate the compressor in a run mode in response to determining the motor exceeds a predetermined speed threshold at or before expiration of the predetermined period of time, wherein the run mode does not prevent electrical current through the motor from exceeding said predetermined current limit.

An inverter is disposed at a position on the upstream side relative to a compression mechanism along the flow of a refrigerant and the position cooled by the refrigerant. A motor is disposed at a position heated by the refrigerant compressed by the compression mechanism. A control device changes an upper limit value of a driving current supplied to the motor on the basis of at least one of first information relating to the temperature of the motor or second information relating to the temperature of the inverter.
