Claim Text:
1. A motor-driven compressor comprising: an electric motor including a stator and a rotor, wherein the stator includes a stator core and a coil end projecting from the stator core; a rotation shaft configured to rotate integrally with the rotor; a compression unit configured to be driven when the rotation shaft rotates; a motor driving circuit configured to drive the electric motor; a housing accommodating the compression unit, the electric motor, and the motor driving circuit sequentially arranged in an axial direction of the rotation shaft; a conductor configured to electrically connect the motor driving circuit to the electric motor; a lead extending from the coil end, wherein the coil end is located between the stator core and the motor driving circuit in the axial direction; a connection terminal electrically connecting the conductor to the lead; and a cluster block accommodating the connection terminal, wherein the cluster block is arranged in the housing, and the cluster block is coupled to the stator with at least part of the cluster block located inward from the coil end in a radial direction of the rotation shaft and at least partially overlapping the coil end in the axial direction of the rotation shaft, and the cluster block includes a main body and an inserting projection, wherein the main body is arranged between the coil end and the rotation shaft with at least part of the main body facing the rotor.
