Therefore, the number of the radiating fins 5 divided in the circumferential direction is equal to the number of the base members 20. It is formed. However, the number of radiating fins 5 may be larger than the number of power modules 3.

It may be wider than the circumferential width of the contact area between the power module 3 and the power module 3. That is, the cooling performance of the power module 3 can be improved by setting the circumferential width of the radiating fins 5 to be equal to or longer than the circumferential width of the contact area between the inner frame 2 and the power module 3.
- the radiating fins 5 extend in the circumferential direction and are formed on the outer peripheral surface of the protruding portion 4 at a constant pitch in the axial direction.
