  • Multi-compartment electrical apparatus with shared cooling assembly
    Patent number: 11864358
    Abstract: An apparatus, such as a power routing apparatus, includes an enclosure having first and second compartments having respective first and second opposing walls. A cooling structure is disposed between the first and second compartments and has a coolant passage defined therein configured to support a coolant flow in a direction parallel to the first and second opposing walls. First and second semiconductor switches (e.g., static switches) are disposed on the first and second walls on opposite sides of the coolant passage and are configured to be cooled by the coolant flow.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 21, 2022
    Date of Patent: January 2, 2024
    Assignee: Eaton Intelligent Power Limited
    Inventors: Franz S. Domurath, Donald Caulfield, George Arthur Navarro
