Abstract

A cooling plate of the unit is connected to each of the a.c. terminals of the alternator and each cooling plate carries the positive-side diode or diodes, the negative-side diode or diodes and the excitor field diode connected to that a.c. terminal. The cooling plates are mounted on a shaped insulating disk in which wires are embedded for connecting together the connection leads of the diodes. Provision is made for bringing out terminals for the connection of a regulator unit and for bringing out a terminal for one a.c. phase, as well as for attachment of the d.c. output terminals.
