Abstract:
1. An integrated-inverter electric compressor comprising an inverter container on an outer circumference of a housing accommodating an electric motor and a compressing mechanism and an inverter device, disposed inside the inverter container, for supplying electric power to the electric motor by converting DC power from a high-voltage power source to three-phase AC power, wherein the inverter device includes an inverter module integrating a power-related metal substrate on which a power semiconductor switching device is mounted and a resin case integrally insert-molded with a plurality of terminals, and is provided with a CPU substrate on which a control and communication circuit having a device that operates at low-voltage is mounted on the upper surface of the inverter module, and wherein the resin case is integrated with a grip which extends in a horizontal direction at an upper edge of a circumference thereof.
