Abstract
Resistance to centrifugally acting forces in an axially and radially compact rectifier assembly particularly suited for mounting in a rotary component of a dynamoelectric machine is achieved in a full wave, three phase rectifier assembly. The assembly includes first and second blocks 18, 20, each having three radially outwardly facing diode receiving surfaces 22, 24, 26. Six diode wafers 28 are located on the surfaces and are sandwiched thereagainst by six electrically conductive load shoes 40. Three phase conductors 54 are interposed between the load shoes 40 and a shrink fitted cylindrical housing 10 and electrically connect aligned load shoes 40 associated with each of the blocks 18 and 20.
