Abstract: A receiving device for component parts, such as electric assemblies, is connected directly to a circuit board. The weight of the electric assembly is carried by a supporting device on contacting the circuit board. A connector which is part of the electric assembly or one of its components is flexibly disposed with respect to a socket of the circuit board, so that the production tolerances can be compensated without problem and a plug-in connection can be achieved between the connector and the socket without the weight of the electric components placing a load on the plug-in connection.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for establishing an electrical and/or optic connection of a first and a second component with a third component with connection means 14, 15 for electrical and/or optic connection of the first and second component with each other, whereby the connection means 14, 15 allow mechanical free-play between the first and second component, with a connection link 13, 16 each for the first and the second component for electrical and/or optic connection of the first and the second with a third component, and with an apparatus 31, 32, 33, 34 for limitation of the mechanical free-play between the first and the second component.

Abstract: The proposal is for a device for continuously cooling apparatuses with at least one circulation mechanism to circulate a coolant, wherein the circulation mechanism has at least one drive mechanism and at least one distribution means driven by the at least one drive mechanism to distribute the coolant, characterized by at least one auxiliary mechanism couplable to the at least one distribution mechanism; wherein, in the event of failure of a drive mechanism, the at least one auxiliary mechanism is coupled to the distribution means and maintains the functioning of the distribution mechanism concerned. Thus in the event of the failure of a circulation mechanism, the flow conditions of the coolant in the apparatuses are substantially maintained.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a receiving device for the component parts (4) connected directly with the circuit board (26), in particular electric assemblies. The weight of the electric assembly is carried by a supporting device (30) on contacting the circuit board. The connector (10) which is part of the electric assembly or one of its components is flexibly disposed with respect to the socket (34) of the circuit board, so that the production tolerances can be compensated without problem and a plug-in connection can be achieved between the connector and the socket without the weight of the electric component placing a load on the plug-in connection.

Abstract: A device for connecting and disconnecting connector parts, one movable and the other fixedly positioned within a housing (e.g., electronic cage). The device includes latches which are pivotedly arranged on the upper and lower corner portions of a protection structure covering a printed circuit card and flexible elements, in particular U-shaped springs, which are positioned on inflexible catch bar members which may be secured to or form part of the housing. The latches engage the flexible elements (which each include a cam member) only after a connection has been made between the mating connector parts. The initial position of the cams determines the magnitude of the insertion force needed to complete the connection.
