Abstract

Disclosed is an inverter housing which is installed in a vehicle, and more particularly, an inverter housing which is capable of having a high heat dissipation effect and realizing a compact size. To this end, the inverter housing according to the present invention includes a body having a plate shape; a plurality of capacitor insertion portions formed to be recessed in a first direction of the body, so that capacitors are inserted thereinto, and integrally arranged to be spaced from each other; a plurality of switching device installation portions configured as spaces in which switching devices are installed, and arranged between the capacitor insertion portions in a second direction of the body opposite to the first direction; and a plurality of heat dissipation fins installed in the first direction of the body to face the switching devices with the body interposed therebetween.

Claims (6)

1. An inverter housing comprising: a body having a plate shape; a plurality of capacitor insertion portions formed to be recessed in a first direction of the body, so that capacitors are inserted there into, and also integrally arranged to be spaced from each other; a plurality of switching device installation portions configured as spaces in which switching devices are installed, and arranged between the capacitor insertion portions in a second direction of the body opposite to the first direction; and a plurality of heat dissipation fins installed in the first direction of the body to face the switching devices with the body interposed there betweenl wherein the heat dissipation fins are radially arranged on the body; wherein the body has a circular plate shape, and wherein the capacitors and the heat dissipation fins are alternately arranged in a circular shape along an inner edge of the circular plate-shaped body.

2. The inverter housing of claim 1 , wherein the body has a circular plate shape, and the capacitor insertion portions and the switching device installation portions are alternately arranged in a circular shape along an inner edge of the circular plate-shaped body.

3. The inverter housing of claim 1 , further comprising a fan configured to supply a flow toward a center of the body in which the capacitor insertion portions and the heat dissipation fins are installed.

4. The inverter housing of claim 1 , wherein the body, the capacitor insertion portions and the heat dissipation fins are grounded.

5. The inverter housing of claim 3 , further comprising a fan guide formed so that the center of the body on which the heat dissipation fins are installed protrudes.

6. The inverter housing of claim 1 , wherein the heat dissipation fins comprise groups of heat dissipation fins, and wherein each of the groups of heat dissipation fins is disposed between two capacitors, on the body.
