Motor-driven compressor

Abstract

The motor-driven compressor includes a housing, a compression mechanism, a rotary shaft and an electric motor all disposed in the housing, and a resin film. The housing has a suction port and a discharge port. The compression mechanism is adapted to compress refrigerant drawn into the housing through the suction port and to discharge the compressed refrigerant out of the housing through the discharge port. The electric motor is adapted to rotate the rotary shaft to drive the compression mechanism. The electric motor has a rotor fixed on the rotary shaft and a stator supported by the housing. The rotor has a rotor body, a permanent magnet and an end plate. The rotor body has a magnet hole in which the permanent magnet is inserted. The end plate closes an opening of the magnet hole. The resin film coats an outer surface of the rotor.
