Patent number: 10595423Abstract: An electronics housing is specified for electronics in a motor vehicle. The electronics housing has a first housing shell with a first base plate and a first side wall as well as a second housing shell with a second base plate and a second side wall. The first side wall is embodied here with double walls either completely or at least in one section, with the result that a groove-shaped wall intermediate space is formed between an outer partial wall and an inner partial wall of the first side wall. In an assembled state of the housing, the second side wall dips into this wall intermediate space.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2018Date of Patent: March 17, 2020Assignee: Brose Fahrzeugteile GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 9345151Abstract: The present invention among other things relates to a housing and a construction kit for a control apparatus, e.g. in the form of a controller for a window lifter of a motor vehicle. A controller module with a printed circuit board here is to be accommodated in a housing at least in part, and there are provided two different types of controller modules, e.g. for a right vehicle side on the one hand and for a left vehicle side on the other hand. According to a first aspect of the invention the housing is suitable for both types of controller modules, so that the housing can selectively be combined with the one or the other type of controller module, in order to mount a control apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2012Date of Patent: May 17, 2016Assignee: Brose Fahrzeugteile GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 7254880Abstract: During the positioning of a control device for controlling an electromechanical drive, contact elements, which are connected to the control device in a fixed manner, are positioned in relation to one or more openings in a connector collar. To position the control device, the latter is displaced into a predetermined position. The predetermined position is defined, for example, by a guide or a stop. The contact elements are a component of an electric and/or optical junction which connects the drive device to other functional units, for example to a door control device or a motor vehicle battery. To position the contact elements in the connector collar of a connecting element which lies on the side of the drive device in the junction, the contact elements are positioned in relation to openings in the connector collar by being displaced together with the control device into the predetermined position.Type: GrantFiled: April 20, 2001Date of Patent: August 14, 2007Assignee: Brose Fahrzeuqteile GmbH & Co.
