Integrated-inverter electric compressor

Abstract

An integrated-inverter electric compressor is provided, in which a change of the combination of weld plating layers provided on weld surfaces of an electrical connection terminal of an inverter can be allowed for easily. In an integrated-inverter electric compressor in which an inverter is integrally fitted to a compressor housing and an electrical connection terminal that electrically connects the inverter to an electric motor and/or an external power source is provided, one end of the electrical connection terminal has a wire-bonding weld surface for the inverter, the wire-bonding weld surface being provided with a weld plating layer for welding a bonding wire thereto, whereas the other end of the electrical connection terminal has weld surfaces for the electric motor and/or the external power source, the weld surfaces of two sides being respectively provided with different weld plating layers for connecting lead wires, bus bars, or terminals thereto.
