US Patent 9667040 Bus bar structure and power converter using bus bar structure

Inductance is reduced while high insulation reliability between positive and negative electrodes of a DC bus bar is ensured. The DC bus bar 801a (801b) is held; the bus bar 801a (801b) is fixed by an insulating member 802a (802b) having an insulating property, with one surface 14 (15) of the bus bar 801a (801b) exposed; the bus bar 801a is arranged such that the surface 14 of the bus bar 801a faces the surface 15 of the second bus bar 801b; an insulating sheet 803 is held between the bus bar 801a and the bus bar 801b; the first insulating member 802a has a projecting part 804a projecting toward the second insulating member 802b; and the projecting part 804a has, at an end part thereof, an abutting surface 13 in contact with the second insulating member 802b.
