ABSTRACT:
A rectifier for an automotive alternator includes a heat sink that has a plurality of rectifying elements mounted thereto to dissipate heat generated by operation of the rectifying elements. The heat sink is configured to be connected with an electrical terminal through an engagement between a male threaded member, which has a male threaded portion and a head portion, and a female threaded member. The heat sink has a recessed portion to accommodate one of the head portion of the male threaded member and the female threaded member. The recessed portion is so shaped to keep the one of the head portion of the male threaded member and the female threaded member from rotating. The heat sink also has a through-bore that communicates with the recessed portion so as to allow the male threaded portion of the male threaded member to extend therethrough to engage with the female threaded member.
