Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electrically-driven compressor including a compression mechanism driven by an electric motor, and more particularly, to an electrically-driven compressor in which a drive circuit for driving an electric motor is accommodated in an accommodation portion of a housing.
- the cover member is attached so as to cover the inverter controller and protect the inverter controller from dust and moisture.
- a seal member (sealing member) is arranged at the open end of the tubular wall. The pressure condition in the casing is ensured by arranging the seal member (sealing member) between the tubular wall and the circuit board.
- a seal member is further arranged at an open end of the cover member. Dust and moisture are prevented from entering the cover member by arranging the seal member between the cover member and the circuit board.
- a rubber O-ring is used as the seal member.
- the seal member must be arranged along the entire circumference of the open end of the tubular wall and be in close contact with the open end of the tubular wall and the circuit board in order to ensure the pressure condition in the casing.
- the additional seal member must be arranged along the entire circumference of the open end of the cover member and be in close contacted with the open end of the cover member and the circuit board to prevent dust and moisture from entering the cover member.
- the shape of the seal member In order to arrange each seal member along the entire circumference of the corresponding open end, the shape of the seal member must be sustained to conform to the shape of the corresponding open end. Thus, a groove for sustaining the shape of the seal member must be formed at each open end in patent document 1.
- a gasket may be used as the seal member. Since a gasket is formed from a metal plate, a means for sustaining the shape of the seal member is not required.
- a gasket is held in close contact with the open end of the tubular wall and the circuit board to ensure the pressure conditions in the casing.
- An additional gasket is held in close contact with the open end of the cover member and the circuit board to prevent dust and moisture from entering the cover member.
- the inverter controller employs a structure in which electrical components connected to the circuit board come into contact with the cover member so as to radiate heat from the electrical components through the cover member. This improves the heat radiation of the heat generated by the electrical components.
- a gasket has the shape of a thin plate.
- the cover member must be accurately manufactured to equalize the gap between the open end of the cover member and the circuit board with the thickness of the gasket in order to close the gap so that the cover member comes into close contact with the gasket. If the cover member is manufactured with low accuracy, the adhesion of the open end of the cover member to the gasket decreases, and dust and moisture enters the cover member from the space between the cover member and the circuit board.

- refrigerant gas is drawn from an external refrigerant circuit (not shown) into the compression mechanism 26 through an intake port 28 (see FIG. 2 ) formed in the first housing element 21 through the electric motor 25 .
- the refrigerant gas drawn into the compression mechanism 26 becomes high temperature and high pressure refrigerant gas due to the compression action of the compression mechanism 26 .
- the refrigerant gas is discharged out of a discharge port 29 formed in the second housing element 22 into the external refrigerant circuit.
- an accommodation portion 36 including an accommodation space 35 therein is formed in part of an outer surface 23 b of the circumferential wall 23 .

- a sealing member 30 for sealing the accommodation space 35 is arranged between the open end 37 a of the side wall 37 and the open end 40 a of the circumferential wall portion 40 , or along the circumferential edge of the accommodation space 35 .
- a motor drive circuit 41 for driving the electric motor 25 is accommodated in the accommodation space 35 .
- the motor drive circuit 41 which includes an inverter, supplies power to the stator 25 a of the electric motor 25 based on an external command from an air conditioner ECU (not shown).
- the motor drive circuit 41 includes a planar circuit board 43 and plural types of electrical components 44 .
- the electrical components 44 are respectively connected to the circuit board 43 on a surface 43 a facing the first housing element 21 and a surface 43 b facing the cover member 38 .
- the circuit board 43 is fixed to the circumferential wall 23 of the first housing element 21 by the bolts 50 .
- the electrical components 44 include known components forming the inverter (i.e., switching element, electrolytic capacitor, transformer, driver, fixed resistor, etc.).
- the electrical components 44 arranged on the surface 43 a of the circuit board 43 contact the first housing element 21 by way of an insulating plate 45
- the electrical components 44 arranged on the surface 43 b of the circuit board 43 contact the top plate portion 39 of the cover member 38 by way of an insulating plate 46 .
- the insulating plates 45 and 46 are preferably formed from materials having superior heat conductivity.
- the sealing member 30 has the shape of a generally four-sided frame and includes a core 31 and a seal portion 32 .
- the core 31 serves as a shape sustaining member having the shape of a generally four-sided frame.
- the core 31 is made of, for example, stainless steel, and has the required rigidity. Therefore, the core 31 sustains its shape with its rigidity and is not easily deformed by external force or the like.
- the seal portion 32 is made of a rubber material (e.g., hydrogenated nitrile rubber (HNBR), oil bearing rubber, etc.) integrated with the core 31 . Materials having superior elasticity are suitable for use as the rubber material.
- the sealing member 30 has an outline formed by the seal portion 32 , and the core 31 is embedded in the inner side of the seal portion 32 . That is, the seal portion 32 is integrated with the core 31 so as to include the outer circumferential part of the core 31 .
- the sealing member 30 has a shape that conforms to the circumferential edge of the accommodation space 35 , that is, the shape of a generally four-sided frame conforming to the open end 37 a of the side wall 37 and the open end 40 a of the circumferential wall portion 40 .
- the core 31 and the seal portion 32 also have the shape of a generally four-sided frame so as to conform to the shape of the two open ends 37 a and 40 a .
- the width of each side of the four-sided frame forming the seal portion 32 is the same as the width of the corresponding side of the side wall 37 and the width of the side of the circumferential wall portion 40 .
- the inner circumferential edge of the seal portion 32 , the inner circumferential edge of the side wall 37 , and the inner circumferential edge of the circumferential wall portion 40 lie along the same plane
- the outer circumferential edge of the seal portion 32 , the outer circumferential edge of the side wall 37 , and the outer circumferential edge of the circumferential wall portion 40 lie along the same plane.
- the sealing member 30 is manufactured in the following manner.
- the core 31 is first shaped into a generally four-sided frame that conforms to the open end 37 a of the side wall 37 and the open end 40 a of the circumferential wall portion 40 .
- Rubber material is then vapor-deposited on the core 31 , which has been shaped as a generally four-sided frame. This integrates the seal portion 32 with the core 31 and manufactures the sealing member 30 .
- the cover member 38 is first arranged so that the open end 40 a faces the open end 37 a . Then, the sealing member 30 is arranged between the two open ends 37 a and 40 a . That is, the seal portion 32 of the sealing member 30 is arranged on the circumferential edge of the accommodation space 35 . The cover member 38 is then secured to the first housing element 21 with the bolts 50 , the sealing member 30 is held between the open ends 37 a and 40 a , and the seal portion 32 comes into close contact with the open ends 37 a and 40 a .
- the sealing member 30 is shaped into a generally four-sided frame that conforms to the two open ends 37 a and 40 a , and the shape of the seal portion 32 is sustained to the generally four-sided frame shape by the core 31 .
- a positioning means for shaping the sealing member 30 , particular, the seal portion 32 , in conformance with the two open ends 37 a and 40 a is not necessary.
- the seal portion 32 When attaching the cover member 38 , the seal portion 32 is elastically deformed by the axial fastening force of the bolts 50 .
- the top plate portion 39 of the cover member 38 contacts the electrical components 44 by way of the insulating plate 46 when the cover member 38 is attached to the first housing element 21 .
- the open end 40 a is spaced from the open end 37 a , and a gap is formed between the two open ends 37 a and 40 a .
- this gap is closed by the seal portion 32 arranged between the two open ends 37 a and 40 a , and the surfaces of the seal portion 32 respectively facing the open ends 37 a and 40 a come into close contact with the open ends 37 a and 40 a .
- the seal portion 32 ensures the adhesion between the open end 37 a and the open end 40 a . Furthermore, the seal portion 32 elastically deforms in its thicknesswise direction due to the axial fastening force of the bolts 50 . The elastic deformation absorbs the dimensional tolerance of the two open ends 37 a and 40 a . This improves the adhesion of the side wall 37 and the cover member 38 .
- the sealing member 30 is arranged between the open end 37 a and the open end 40 a at the circumferential edge of the accommodation space 35 .
- the seal portion 32 seals the accommodation space 35 in close contact with the open ends 37 a and 40 a .
- the sealing member 30 includes the core 31 , which has the shape of a generally four-sided frame and which is arranged along the circumferential direction of the open ends 37 a and 40 a , and the seal portion 32 , which is formed by vapor-depositing rubber material on the core 31 .
- the seal portion 32 of the sealing member 30 is sustained in a generally four-sided frame shape conforming to the open ends 37 a and 40 a by the core 31 .
- a means for sustaining the shape of the seal portion 32 as a four-sided frame shape (e.g., groove and adhesive for holding the seal portion 32 ) thus does not need to be arranged on the open ends 37 a and 40 a . Consequently, the manufacturing of the electrically-driven compressor 10 is facilitated.
- the shape of the seal portion 32 is sustained by the core 31 . Therefore, the sealing member 30 is attached to the accommodation portion 36 just by arranging the sealing member 30 on the circumferential edge of the accommodation space 35 and holding it between the open end 37 a and the open end 40 a .
- the formation of the accommodation portion 36 and furthermore, the assembly of the electrically-driven compressor 10 is facilitated compared to, for example, when an O-ring is fitted to the groove.
- the seal portion 32 does not need to be joined to the open ends 37 a and 40 a with an adhesive or the like. Therefore, the cover member 38 and the sealing member 30 are easily disassembled when disassembling the accommodation portion 36 .
- the cover member 38 When the cover member 38 is attached to the housing 11 , the electrical components 44 contact the cover member 38 , and a gap is formed between the open end 37 a of the housing 11 and the open end 40 a of the cover member 38 .
- the gap between the housing 11 and the cover member 38 must correspond to the thickness of the gasket in the state of contact.
- the gap is closes as the seal portion 32 elastically deforms.
- the housing 11 (side wall 37 ) and the cover member 38 do not need to be accurately manufactured. Accordingly, the gap is closed without increasing costs as would be the result when accurately manufacturing the housing 11 and the cover member 38 .
- the seal portion 32 Since the open end 37 a and the open end 40 a have the shape of a generally four-sided frame, the seal portion 32 also needs to be sustained in the generally four-sided frame shape.
- a means (e.g., groove) for sustaining the seal portion 32 in a generally four-sided frame shape does not need to be arranged in the open ends 37 a and 40 a since the shape of the seal portion 32 is sustained by the core 31 in the present embodiment.
- a shape sustaining means such as groove must always be formed on the open ends 37 a and 40 a . Accordingly, the structure for sustaining the seal portion 32 in a generally four-sided frame shape with the core 31 is particularly effective when the sealing regions have a polygonal (four-sided) frame shape.
- Rubber material is vapor-deposited on the core 31 , which is shaped as a generally four-sided frame in advance to integrate the core 31 with the seal portion 32 and manufacture the sealing member 30 . Therefore, unnecessary material is not produced, whereas unnecessary material would be produced when manufacturing a gasket by depositing rubber material on a metal plate to form a rubber thin film and then punching the metal plate to a desired shape (generally four-sided frame shape in the present embodiment).
- the sealing member 30 has rubber material deposited after the core 31 is shaped into a generally four-sided frame. Therefore, the shaping of the core 31 into a generally four-sided frame is easily performed, and the manufacturing of the sealing member 30 is facilitated.
- FIG. 4 A second embodiment of the present invention will now be described with reference to FIG. 4 .
- the same reference numerals are used for components that are the same as the first embodiment, and the redundant description of such components will either be omitted or simplified.

That is, the circumferential edge part of the circuit board 43 is also used as the shape sustaining member for sustaining the seal portion 32 in the shape conforming to the open ends 37 a and 40 a.
- the present embodiment has the following advantage in addition to the advantages similar to advantages (1) to (5) of the first embodiment.
- the sealing member 60 is formed by integrating the seal portion 32 with the circuit board 43 of the motor drive circuit 41 .
- the seal portion 32 may be arranged at the circumferential edge of the accommodation space 35 at the same time when arranging the motor drive circuit 41 in the accommodation space 35 .
- the task for forming the accommodation portion 36 can be eliminated as compared to when the task for arranging the motor drive circuit 41 in the accommodation space 35 and the task for arranging the sealing member 30 are separately performed during the formation of the accommodation portion 36 . This facilitates the manufacturing of the electrically-driven compressor 10 .
- FIGS. 5 and 6 A third embodiment of the present invention will now be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6 .
- the same reference numerals are used for components that are the same as the first embodiment, and the redundant description of such components will either be omitted or simplified.
