The top wall of the main body 1 is provided with a heat dissipation gap; the heat dissipation fin 2 is arranged in the heat dissipation gap and closes the heat dissipation gap; the substrate 3 is fixed in the interior of the main body 1 and connected with the heat dissipation fin 2; one end of the pin 4 is located in the main body 1 and forms a surface fit with the substrate 3, and the other end extends out of the main body 1.

[0035] Specifically, the main body 1 is cuboid, the heat dissipation gap is provided on the top wall of the main body 1, the area of the heat dissipation gap accounts for more than 80% of the top wall of the main body 1, the heat dissipation fin 2 is made of a material with good heat dissipation coefficient, and is embedded in the heat dissipation gap; the heat dissipation fin 2 and the heat dissipation gap can be interference fit, can be fixed by adhesion, and can be fixed by bolt connection, and the utility model does not make limitation on this. The substrate 3 is arranged at the inner top wall of the main body 1, one side of the substrate 3 forms a surface fit with the heat dissipation fin 2, the other side of the substrate 3 forms a surface fit with the pin 4, and the side of the pin 4 away from the substrate 3 extends out of the main body 1 from the position close to the bottom wall of the main body 1. The end of the pin 4 extending out of the main body 1 is used for forming connection with external circuit.

[0036] By forming a surface fit between one side of the pin 4 and the substrate 3 and extending the other side out of the main body 1, on the one hand, the part that can be used for connection of the pin 4 can be increased, so that the pin 4 forms reliable connection with external circuit, and on the other hand, the heat of the pin 4 can be quickly transferred to the outside of the main body 1, and the surface fit can also make the pin 4 in a surface mount type layout, so as to reduce the occupied space and improve the utilization rate of space. The heat in the interior of the main body 1 can be quickly transferred to the heat dissipation fin 2 by the substrate 3, the heat dissipation fin 2 is embedded in the heat dissipation gap, so that the heat dissipation fin 2 has a large contact area with the outside, and the heat can be quickly transferred to the outside of the main body 1. Therefore, when the power semiconductor module is used, not only can the pin 4 form reliable connection with external circuit, but also the heat can be quickly transferred to the outside through the top of the main body 1, so as to reduce the possibility of continuous temperature rise of the whole power semiconductor module, thereby reducing the possibility of affecting the normal operation of the power semiconductor module.

[0042] Optionally, the connecting section 43 extends obliquely.

[0043] Specifically, the connecting section 43 extends obliquely from the inner top wall of the main body 1 toward the side wall of the main body 1 so that the connection between the connecting section 43 and the extension section 42 is close to the side wall of the main body 1, thereby ensuring that the extension section 42 can extend out of the main body 1 to a greater length, and also reducing the space occupied by the connecting section 43 inside the main body 1.
