Abstract
In this compact rectifier, a arcuate bodies of a positive heat sink and a arcuate body of a negative heat sink are arranged in a coaxial manner while positioning major surfaces thereof at the same plane position. A plurality of positive diodes are mounted on the major surface of the arcuate body of the positive heat sink along the circumferential direction in such a manner that leads are directed toward an outer circumferential side. On the other hand, while a plurality of negative diodes offset by a preselected amount along the circumferential direction with respect to the positive diodes with directing the lead to an inner circumferential side, these plural negative diodes are mounted on the major surface of the arcuate body of the negative heat sink.
