Compressor and electric motor
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A compressor, comprising a housing;
- a compression mechanism accommodated in the housing; and
a low-voltage electric motor for driving the compression mechanism, the electric motor including a rotor and a stator, the stator having a winding formed from a light-metal conductor wire having a specific gravity smaller than that of a copper wire.

Abstract
A compressor and an electric motor in which their weights are successfully reduced by employing a light-metal conductor wire for a winding, by reducing constituent components of a stator and a rotor of the electric motor, by providing a notch or a hole, and by eliminating the need for components necessary to mount the stator in a housing or a casing.
