    Abstract: A power conversion apparatus includes a semiconductor module, an electronic component, a cooling member, a casing and a pressurizing member. The electronic component includes a load application part that receives a load caused by pressurizing force on a surface in a pressurizing member side with respect to the lamination direction; a load supporting part that comes into contact with a contact part of the casing on a surface opposite to the pressurizing member side with respect to the lamination direction; and a fastening part fastened to a casing fastening part. The load supporting part is disposed between the load application part and the fastening part; moment of force around the load supporting part is produced in the electronic component by the load applied to the load application part; and the moment causes the electronic component to be pressed towards a pressed part of the casing.

    Abstract: An electric power converter is provided which includes a stack body made of a stack of a plurality of electronic devices and cooling medium flow paths in which cooling medium flows. The electric power converter also includes a housing in which the stack body is disposed. The housing 3 has a stack facing wall which faces the stack body in a stacking direction. The stack facing wall has an in-wall flow path in which the cooling medium flows and which communicates the cooling medium flow paths. This structure enables the electric power converter to be reduced in size thereof.

    Abstract: An electrical power conversion apparatus includes a high-voltage bus bar, a low-voltage bus bar, and a relay bus bar which are integrated together in the form of a bus bar assembly. The high-voltage bus bar includes semiconductor-side high-voltage terminals and capacitor-side high-voltage terminals. The low-voltage bus bar includes semiconductor-side low-voltage terminals and capacitor-side low-voltage terminals. The relay bus bar includes a reactor-side relay terminal and a capacitor-side relay terminal 532. The capacitor-side high-voltage terminals, the capacitor-side low-voltage terminals, and the capacitor-side relay terminal are arranged in the form of a terminal array. The capacitor-side high-voltage terminals and the capacitor-side low-voltage terminals are arranged adjacent each other. The capacitor-side relay terminal is located at an end of an array of the capacitor-side high-voltage terminals and the capacitor-side low-voltage terminals. With these arrangements, the electrical power conversion apparatus is capable of reducing the inductance and facilitating the assembling and downsizing thereof.
