In a capacitor device for transferring power between a power source and a target component including an electronic and/or electric component, at least one capacitor is housed in a capacitor case. A busbar is drawn out from the capacitor case. The busbar electrically connects the at least one capacitor to the target component. The capacitor case includes at least first, second, and third fixture members for fixation of the capacitor case. The third fixture member is located to be separated from a virtual line connecting between a first reference point of the first fixture member and a second reference point of the second fixture member, and located to be closer to the target component than the first and second fixture members are. The busbar is located to be closer to the third fixture member than to the virtual line.

Capacitor device

To provide a capacitor device capable of preventing thermal interference between a filter capacitor and a plurality of smoothing capacitors. A capacitor device provided in an energization circuit between a power source and a semiconductor module as a power supply device includes a filter capacitor for removing a noise included in a current supplied from a power input terminal, a plurality of smoothing capacitors for smoothing a voltage, and a capacitor case that houses the filter capacitor and the plurality of smoothing capacitors, and a first gap between the filter capacitor and a smoothing capacitor provided at a position closest to the filter capacitor among the plurality of smoothing capacitors is configured to be larger than a second gap between two smoothing capacitors adjacent to each other among the plurality of smoothing capacitors.
