ABSTRACT:
A unit of series-connected semiconductor elements includes a cylindrical metal case with a clamping mechanism enclosed therein. A chain of semiconductor elements is arranged between the surfaces of clamping elements of the clamping mechanism coaxially with the case. One extreme semiconductor element of the chain contacts the bottom of the case made of a current-conducting material, functioning as one clamping element of the clamping mechanism. The second extreme semiconductor element of the chain contacts the second clamping element of the clamping mechanism, made of an insulation material and mechanically coupled with the side walls of the case.
The unit also contains current-carrying busbars electrically associated with the outputs of the extreme semiconductor elements of the chain, one of the current-carrying busbars being electrically connected with the upper part of the side wall of the case.
