2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a power regulator is generally used for controlling power to a heater, for example. Such a power conditioner includes a thyristor as a switching element,
The amount of power supplied to the heater is adjusted by controlling the phase angle by the thyristor. However, thyristors generate large amounts of heat due to power loss. Therefore, a heat sink is provided to radiate the heat generated by the thyristor to the atmosphere outside the power conditioner. Here, FIGS. 6 and 7 show a conventional power conditioner. The power regulator 5 includes a heat sink 52 on the rear side of a housing 51, and a thyristor 53 is mounted directly on the heat sink 52. The radiator plate 52 is provided with a plurality of radiator fins 52a, and radiates the heat transmitted to the radiator plate 52 to the outside atmosphere via the radiator fins 52a.

The reason that the thyristor 53 is brought into contact with the radiator plate 52 is that the thyristor 53, which is indispensable for the power regulator 5, is a heat-generating component, and it is necessary to radiate heat from the radiator plate 52 to minimize the temperature rise inside the power regulator. Because there is a nature.

However, in the conventional power regulator 5, the heat radiating plate 52 is disposed on the back of the power regulator 5 as shown in FIG. However, it can be arranged only on the heat sink surface as shown in FIG. In the configuration in which the thyristor 53 is arranged in this manner, the head of the thyristor 53 faces the front side of the power regulator, and since it is necessary to connect an electric wire to the connection terminal of this head, the depth of the power regulator is limited to some extent. I have no choice. When the power regulator 5 having such a depth is provided in a control panel or a power panel (not shown), the control panel or the power panel itself becomes large, which is against the demand for downsizing and thinning.

Further, since the heat radiating plate 52 is provided only on the back surface of the power regulator 5, there is a restriction on the external dimensions of the whole power regulator, so that a heat radiation area cannot be increased.

The heat radiating plate provided on at least two surfaces of the case can also be used as a part of the main body case. This alleviates restrictions when designing the arrangement of heat-generating electric components (such as thyristors) provided inside the case and attached to the heat sink. Specifically, the depth is reduced without increasing the width of the power regulator itself. As described above, the heat radiation effect can be enhanced while the body size of the power regulator itself is reduced, and as a result, the configuration of the power regulator body is simplified and the cost is reduced.

Since the side of the main body case is thinned and this portion mainly serves as a heat transfer plate, when a plurality of power regulators are installed in parallel on a control panel or a power panel, the depth can be reduced. It contributes to making control panels and power panels smaller and thinner. In addition, since the side surface of the main body case also plays a role of a heat radiator plate, the contact area with the external atmosphere can be made much larger than that of the conventional power regulator, and the heat radiation effect is enhanced. In particular, since the side of the power regulator is also used as a heat radiator, when multiple power regulators are installed in parallel on a control panel or power panel, these power regulators that were not used in the conventional power regulator The heat can be efficiently radiated to the gap between the containers.

In the power regulator according to the second aspect of the present invention, the side of the main body case is thinned and this portion mainly serves as a heat transfer plate. When installed in parallel to the power panel, this depth can be reduced, contributing to the miniaturization and thinning of the control panel and power panel. In addition, since the side surface of the main body case also plays a role of a heat radiator plate, the contact area with the external atmosphere can be made much larger than that of the conventional power regulator, and the heat radiation effect is enhanced. In particular, since the side of the power regulator is also used as a heat radiator, when multiple power regulators are installed in parallel on a control panel or power panel, these power regulators that were not used in the conventional power regulator The heat can be efficiently radiated to the gap between the containers.
