Publication number: 20240032237Abstract: An apparatus cools electronic circuitry. A housing encloses the electronic circuitry and includes a plurality of surfaces, each configured to face an adjacent inner wall of the back box upon the housing being mounted inside the back box. A rear surface faces a rear wall of the inner walls of the back box. A mounting plate is disposed opposite to the rear surface, is in thermal contact with the housing, and faces away from the back box. A touch plate is atop of, and in thermal contact with, the mounting plate. The mounting plate and the touch plate combine to provide a path for conducting heat generated by the electronic circuitry away from the housing and for radiating the heat to ambient air. The mounting plate or the touch plate is made of a higher thermal conductivity material to facilitate conduction of heat away from the housing.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 22, 2023Publication date: January 25, 2024Applicant: Crestron Electronics, Inc.Inventors: Albert Pedoeem, Kriss Replogle, Charles Magrino

Patent number: 11683907Abstract: An apparatus cools electronic circuitry. An enclosure surrounds the electronic circuitry and has plural surfaces. Air intake holes are disposed in at least one surface and face at least one first direction. Air exhaust holes are disposed in at least another surface and face at least one second direction different than the first direction. A heat sink is in thermal contact with the circuitry and conducts heat generated by the circuitry. When a fan operates, air is drawn from an exterior of the enclosure through the air intake holes, absorbs heat from the heat sink, and then is directed through the air exhaust holes into the exterior of the enclosure. The heat sink is further in thermal contact with the enclosure so that when the fan does not operate, heat is drawn from the circuitry to the enclosure via the heat sink and is dissipated from the exterior.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2021Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Assignee: Crestron Electronics, Inc.Inventors: Albert Pedoeem, Kriss Replogle, Sanjay Upasani, Don Florczak

Patent number: 11616352Abstract: An integrated latching mechanism includes a slider button. At least one curved elastic arm extends from the slider button and is configured such that in response to an external force urging the slider button in a first direction, the curved elastic arm is distorted such that upon removal of the external force, the curved elastic arm moves the slider button in a direction opposite to the first direction. A locking part is contiguous with the slider button and extends away from the slider button. In response to the external force urging the slider button in the first direction, the locking part moves in the first direction, and upon removal of the external force, the curved elastic arm moves the locking part in the direction opposite to the first direction. The at least one curved elastic arm, the slider button, and the locking part form a single piece of elastic material.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2022Date of Patent: March 28, 2023Assignee: Crestron Electronics, Inc.Inventors: Albert Pedoeem, Gregory Sorrentino, David Paolazzi
