Abstract: A motor assembly includes a motor, an electric pump to supply oil to the motor, an inverter assembly connected to the motor, and a first wire harness and a second wire harness. T The inverter assembly includes an inverter to convert a high-voltage direct current into an alternating current and supply the alternating current to the motor, and a controller to control the inverter and the electric pump. The first wire harness electrically connects an external power supply and the inverter assembly, and passes a low-voltage power supply line. The low-voltage power supply line is, at a branch point, branched into a controller power supply line to supply drive power to the controller and a pump power supply line to supply drive power to the electric pump.

Abstract: A motor includes a stationary section and a rotating section rotatably supported about a center axis extending in an axial direction. The stationary section includes coils, a stator core, a wire support made of resin and fixed to the stator core, cylindrical portions with a cylindrical shape extending in the axial direction on a radially outer side of the coils, and a top plate portion extending from the cylindrical portion toward an inside of the stationary section in a radial direction. The wire support includes holding portions provided with through holes or notches penetrating in the axial direction. Conducting wires drawn from the coils extend upward through the through holes or the notches. The top plate portion includes top plate holes. The holding portions and the top plate holes are mutually disposed at a position overlapping in the axial and radial directions.

Abstract: An electric motor is provided comprising a rotor unit, a stator unit, a housing, and a bearing mechanism. The rotor unit rotates about a vertical center axis. The stator unit is disposed around the rotor unit. The stator unit is fixed inside of the housing. The bearing mechanism rotatably supports the rotor unit relative to the stator unit. The housing comprises a cylindrical wall portion with a bottom and a cover plate, which covers an opening of the cylindrical wall portion. The bearing mechanism further comprises at least two bearings, an upper bearing is sustained by the cover plate and a lower bearing is sustained by the bottom of the housing. The cover plate is made of electrically conductive elements and comprises at least one projection protruding toward the upper outer side of the cover plate so that the at least one projection is configured to contact, directly or indirectly, at least one grounding contact of a controller, which drives and controls the electric motor disposed on the upper outer side of the cover plate. The controller is connected to a ground potential through the cover plate and the motor housing.

Abstract: A motor includes a busbar made of metal and a busbar holder made of resin. The busbar includes a plate shaped portion and terminals extending upward from the plate shaped portion and electrically connected to an end portion of a conducting wire included in coils. In addition, a busbar portion defined by the busbar and the busbar holder and a rotor overlap each other in an axial direction. The busbar portion widens in a radial direction, and dimensions of the entire motor in the radial direction are significantly reduced or minimized. In addition, the number of busbars stacked in the axial direction is reduced. As a result, the dimensions of the motor in the axial direction are significantly reduced or minimized.
