Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a limiting device, a limiting module, and an assembly method thereof, and particularly to a limiting device, a limiting module, and an assembly method thereof for a transistor. Background Technology

[0002] In electrical equipment, the core component is the power conversion semiconductor module. This module is typically fixed in two ways. The first is rigid fixing, such as directly attaching the semiconductor module to the heat sink surface using screws through an insulating plate. However, during operation, the semiconductor module repeatedly expands and contracts due to temperature changes. Using screws, when the semiconductor module expands due to heat, the pressure between the semiconductor module and the screw can easily cause it to crack. When the semiconductor module cools down after stopping operation, its size shrinks, preventing a tight fit between the semiconductor module and the heat sink, thus affecting its heat dissipation performance.

[0003] like Figure 1 As shown, the second fixing method arranges at least one semiconductor component 101 on the edge of a circuit board 102. The circuit board 102 is assembled on a frame 103. The corresponding semiconductor component 101 is pushed down onto a heat sink 105 by at least one limiting member 104 fixed to the frame 103. However, the limiting member 104 only applies pressure to the semiconductor component 101 on one side, which may lead to loosening over time. This cannot ensure the reliability of the assembly of the semiconductor component 101, the circuit board 102, and the heat sink 105, thus reducing the heat exchange efficiency between the semiconductor component 101 and the heat sink 105. Moreover, the placement and number of the semiconductor component 101 are limited by the length of the edge of the circuit board 102, making the circuit design more difficult.
