Abstract
A power conversion device includes a sealing material that fills the housing space of a case and that has a sealing surface located above a peak point of a wire included in a semiconductor unit in a side view of the device. The power conversion device further includes a buffering member that extends in a predetermined direction in plan view of the device and that has a buffering bottom surface located above the peak point of the wire and under the sealing surface in the side view.
Claims14
A power conversion device, comprising:
- a first conductive unit including a first conductive part having a first front surface and a second conductive part having a second front surface, the second conductive part being separate from the first conductive part in a first direction parallel to the first and second front surfaces;
- a first wire connecting the first front surface to the second front surface, the first wire extending away from the first front surface and the second front surface and being curved at a first peak point thereof;
- a second conductive unit located on a side of the first conductive unit, the second conductive unit including a third conductive part having a third front surface, and a fourth conductive part having a fourth front surface, the fourth conductive part being separate from the third conductive part in the first direction;
- a second wire connecting the third front surface to the fourth front surface, the second wire extending away from the third front surface and the fourth front surface and being curved at a second peak point thereof;
- a case forming a frame to define a housing space to accommodate therein the first conductive unit and the second conductive unit;
- a sealing material sealing the housing space and having a sealing surface located above the first peak point and the second peak point;
- and
- a buffering member extending in the first direction in a plan view of the power conversion device, the buffering member having a bottom end that, in a side view of the power conversion device, is located above the first peak point and the second peak point and under the sealing surface.
