  • Patent number: 11782076
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electrical device comprising a support comprising a holding member, and an electrical circuit (12) housed at least partially in the support and comprising an array of electrical tracks (122) and a receiving portion (121) designed to receive a magnetic field sensor. The electrical circuit (12) is configured so as to create an electrical link between the magnetic field sensor, on the one hand, and an electronic board external to the electrical device, on the other hand. The holding member comprises at least one bearing portion forming a stop so as to create a mechanical link between the support and the electronic board. Said receiving portion (121) forms an exposed surface configured so as to create an electrical connection with said magnetic field sensor through plane-to-plane contact between the receiving portion (121) and a face of the magnetic field sensor.

  • Publication number: 20220201897
    Abstract: A cooling unit for dissipating the heat generated by electronic components (40) of an electrical assembly (1) is disclosed. The cooling unit has a first portion (20) and a second portion (30), each of which form a hollow part, of substantially parallelepipedal shape. The first and second portions meet at a joining zone (51) of the cooling unit, the first and second portions each comprising a first external surface that is turned towards the other portion, and said first external surfaces each comprising a receiving zone intended to receive one or more of said electronic components (40). At least one of said portions comprises a connection opening configured to be connected to another part of said cooling module (10) that is separate from said cooling unit. The cooling unit also comprises at least one orifice (55) formed in one of the portions.
