Patent ID: 8564953

Claim:
A semiconductor power module comprising: a DC terminal to be connected to a condenser module, and to be used in combination with a cooling jacket for cooling, wherein the DC terminal protrudes toward the condenser module beyond the cooling jacket, a heatsink, which is in contact with a refrigerant in the cooling jacket to release heat generated from a plurality of power semiconductor elements, an AC terminal, wherein the DC terminal and the AC terminal protrude from a semiconductor power module body, and the heatsink is arranged on that side of the semiconductor power module body, on which the semiconductor power module is combined with the cooling jacket, wherein the DC terminal is provided on one side of an outer periphery of the semiconductor module, and the AC terminal is provided on an opposite side to the DC terminal, laminated flat plates provided between the DC terminal and the AC terminal, and a low-voltage electrode provided on a separate side from the sides on which the DC terminal and the AC terminal are provided, wherein a conducting plate having a curvature is provided in a position, at which the DC terminal and the laminated flat plates are in contact with each other.
