Claims16
A cover for a rotating electric machine comprising an axis of rotation, the cover being intended to be arranged on an inverter of said machine and comprising:
- a skirt extending in an axial direction and forming a perimeter of the cover, the perimeter defining an inner portion of the cover;
- and
- an open region arranged in the inner portion and comprising at least one axial opening,
- wherein the open region extends over at least 50% of the inner portion of the cover, and
- wherein the skirt forms a closed perimeter and comprises
- a plurality of radial protection portions, each radial protection portion being intended to be arranged radially opposite a phase connection of the machine,
- a plurality of connecting portions extending circumferentially between two radial protection portions of the plurality of radial protection portions, each connecting portion having a height in an axial direction that is less than a height in the axial direction of each of the radial protection portions, and
- a plurality of primary radial openings formed between two radial protection portions of the plurality of radial protection portions such that two radial protection portions of the plurality of radial protection portions are separated from each other by one of the plurality of connecting portions and one of the plurality of primary radial openings.
