Abstract: The disclosure provides power semiconductor modules and their assembling methods. The module includes a heat-dissipation contact area, a housing and a press-on element. One of the housing and the press-on element includes a rail portion, while the other includes a rail cooperating portion. The housing and the press-on element respectively includes a first limiting portion and a first limiting cooperating portion. The rail cooperating portion can be inserted into the rail portion and slides on the rail portion in the direction toward or away from the plane where the heat-dissipation contact area is located, so that the press-on element could move from the separation position to the mounted position connected with the housing. The rail portion can cooperate with the rail cooperating portion to prevent the press-on element from moving relative to the housing in the direction parallel to the plane where the heat-dissipation contact area is located.
