Patent number: 5520546Abstract: A valve block unit comprising a valve block and a valve block lid is proposed, which to facilitate installation and to protect electrical contact pins against bending or damage is equipped with an intermediate plate that has guide openings. In a dismounted state of the valve block and valve block lid, this intermediate plate protectively receives the contact pins. The intermediate plate is subject to the force of compression springs, which are compressed when the valve block and the valve block lid are brought together for installation. The contact pins then protrude from the protective intermediate plate and enter the contact bushes intended for them. This assures safe electrical connections, designed for ease of manufacture, within the valve block unit. The valve block unit is intended for use in motor vehicle brake pressure modulation systems.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 1994Date of Patent: May 28, 1996Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Herbert Klinger, Hartmut Zoebl, Reinhard Fassel

Patent number: 5394301Abstract: An arrangement for dissipating heat from power components assembled on a printed-circuit board dissipates heat generated in the power components to the side of the printed-circuit board that is removed from the components. The printed-circuit board may have heat-transfer bore holes, and a heat-conducting material applied in the area of the power components, the heat-transfer bore holes, and the side of the printed-circuit board facing away from the power components. The side of the printed-circuit board that is removed from the power components may be coated with an insulating enamel and with a flexible heat-conducting enamel.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 1994Date of Patent: February 28, 1995Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Reinhard Fassel, Herbert Klinger, Hartmut Zoebl

Patent number: 5313701Abstract: In accordance with a method for assembly and testing the insulation of power components for electronic switching and control devices, particularly for motor vehicles, the power components are fastened to a heat sink so as to be thermally conducting and electrically insulated and are connected together with additional component elements on a printed circuit board and with a circuit ground. In order to protect voltage-sensitive component elements on the printed circuit board, the heat sink is first fastened to the printed circuit board without potential and then the insulation between the heat sink and power component is tested by applying high voltage between the heat sink and power component, and the heat sink is finally electrically connected with the circuit ground.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 1992Date of Patent: May 24, 1994Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Herbert Klinger, Gerhard Thomas, Martin Petrzik
