Abstract

The present invention provides an inverter connection terminal assembly for an electric compressor. The inverter connection terminal assembly includes a connection terminal, in which upper and lower terminal projections project from the upper and lower surfaces of a plate, respectively, an inverter connection cable connected to the upper terminal projection of the connection terminal, a motor connection cable connected to the lower terminal projection of the connection terminal, an upper connector for connecting the upper terminal projection and the inverter connection cable, and a lower connector for connecting the lower terminal projection and the motor connection cable, wherein the lower terminal projection of the connection terminal includes a thread formed on the surface thereof such that the motor connection cable is fixed to the lower terminal projection by fastening a nut while a washer and a ring connector are sequentially inserted into the lower terminal projection.
