Abstract: A support for mounting the electronic components of a single phase unit for an inverter, of the type having an H-shaped cross-section in at least one plane disposed perpendicular to the longitudinal axis thereof. The support includes a planar center plate member, and a pair of planar end plate members coupled to the center plate member and disposed in spaced-apart parallel relationship transversely with respect to the plane of the center plate member. The support is self-supporting, and has an H-shaped cross-section in each of the planes thereof disposed perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the support.

Abstract: A pluggable high-amperage contact in which the connector receptacle is suspended by means of a joint orientable in all directions with the joint supported so that it is laterally moveable in a plane approximately normal to the longitudinal axis of the plug connector, thereby permitting proper mating of connectors which are not exactly aligned.

Abstract: An air cooled converter assembly employing disc thyristors in which the disc thyristors are clamped between conducting heat sinks, arranged in pairs side-by-side transversely to their common axis, with the disc thyristor thereby clamped essentially parallel to the front surface of the arrangement with the heat sinks as viewed from the front having essentially the outline of an isosceles right triangle.
