Electric Wire Holding Structure for Compressor Vibration Management
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional electric wire holding structures for compressors are prone to interference due to vibration, leading to adverse effects on the wires and increased compressor size or reduced assembly efficiency when attempting to prevent these issues.
Innovation Solution
An electric wire holding structure that uses a holding member, such as a one-touch clip, to securely attach the wire between the connection terminal section and the built-in electric device, preventing interference and ensuring easy assembly without increasing the compressor's size.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the length of input electric wires is set short to prevent interference with other devices during vibration, then wire interference is prevented, but the connection work and assembly work of the stator are remarkably damaged
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the wire management into multiple segments: the wire is fixed at the stator side, bundled at an intermediate position using a bundling member, and connected at the terminal side. This segmentation allows each section to be optimized independently, preventing interference while maintaining assembly efficiency.
Solution Approach 2:
The bundling member is provided in advance at the predetermined position, and the wire is bundled before final connection. This preliminary action prevents interference proactively while allowing flexible connection work without requiring excessively short wires.
2Reliability
If an enough gap is provided between input electric wires and other devices to prevent interference, then wire interference is prevented, but the compressor becomes large-sized
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by providing the bundling member only at the specific location where wires need to be managed, rather than increasing the overall compressor size. The wire bundle is confined to a localized area, preventing interference without expanding the compressor volume.
3Reliability
If the length of input electric wires from connection terminal section to bundled portion is set as short as possible to prevent interference, then wire interference is prevented, but the connection work efficiency is remarkably damaged
Solution Approach 1:
The patent solves the length problem by changing the spatial arrangement - instead of relying solely on wire length, the wires are bundled at an intermediate position perpendicular to the wire direction. This dimensional change allows sufficient connection length while preventing interference through proper spatial organization.

AI summary
A structure and method for holding an electric wire connected to the inside of an electric compressor incorporating a motor. The structure has a holding member for holding an electric wire present between a connection terminal section for connection to the outside and a built-in electric device. The structure and method can reliably eliminate possibility of adverse affection to an input electric wire caused by vibration, etc. while preventing a reduction in efficiency of assembly work and an increase in size of the compressor.
