Patent number: 11839043Abstract: An improved ECU for a motor vehicle comprises a housing that includes a top portion and a bottom portion each with an associated gasket. A printed circuit board (PCB) is enclosed between the housing portions. The gaskets provide seals between the housing, portions and respective sides of the PCB and apply balanced forces to each side to minimize strain on the PCB. One or both gaskets may be electromagnetic compliance gaskets.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2021Date of Patent: December 5, 2023Assignees: Robert Bosch LLC, Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Hadwan Hadwan, John Janson, Ligor Manushi, Jeff Reuter, Jesus Antonio Marin Bello, Mark Ryskamp, Alexander Tsang, Andrew Yermak, Hiram Avalos, Kenneth Bouman

Publication number: 20230062275Abstract: An improved electronic control unit for a motor vehicle comprises a printed circuit board in a one-piece bucket-style housing. The printed circuit board includes a heat-producing electrical component, and the housing includes a heat sink. During assembly of the electronic control unit, the printed circuit board is slid into the housing through an opening in the housing and along a pair of side rails. At the end of the side rails opposite the opening, there is a ramp that lifts the PCB towards the top wall of the housing, thus allowing the electrical component to thermally couple with the heat sink.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2021Publication date: March 2, 2023Inventors: Ligor Manushi, Jeff Reuter

Patent number: 11444394Abstract: A capacitor carrier assembly includes a carrier, a capacitor disposed in the carrier and electrically conductive connection terminals. The connection terminals support the carrier with respect to another electronic component or device such as a printed circuit board, retain individual carrier portions in an assembled configuration, and provide an electrical connection between the capacitor and the electronic component. Each connection terminal includes an elastic member that protrudes from a surface of the connection terminal and engages the carrier, and regions of serrations provided on opposed edges of the terminal that engage the carrier, and a flange that protrudes from the surface in a direction perpendicular to the first surface. An edge of the flange includes an insulation displacement contact (IDC) joint for connection to the capacitor leads.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2020Date of Patent: September 13, 2022Assignees: Robert Bosch LLC, Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Daniel Stremersch, Ligor Manushi, Kenneth Bouman, Hadwan Hadwan, John Janson, Andrew Yermak, Alexander Tsang, Mark Ryskamp, Jesus Antonio Marin Bello, Jeff Reuter

Patent number: 10411392Abstract: A hybrid electrical connector includes a housing having a central opening, a carrier plate supported by the housing within the central opening, and electrically conductive pins supported within the housing by the carrier plate. The housing is formed of a first plastic material, and the carrier plate is formed of a second plastic material having properties that make it more dimensionally stable than the first plastic material. In addition, a sealing layer is applied to one surface of the carrier plate, the sealing layer formed of a third plastic material and serving to secure the carrier plate to the housing and to secure the pins within the carrier plate. A method of forming the electrical connector is also described.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2018Date of Patent: September 10, 2019Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Ligor Manushi, Mario Reyes, Hiram Avalos, Mark Ryskamp, Allison McInnis, Jens Oberender, Michael Schoenfeld, Alexander Moore, Robert Keller

Patent number: 10251297Abstract: A cover of a housing for an electronic control unit (ECU) includes a planar end portion, sidewall portions that surround a periphery of the end portion, and guide ribs that protrude inward from a base-facing surface of the end portion. Each rib includes a free edge that is spaced apart from the base-facing surface of the end portion and extends between the rib first end and the rib second end. The free edge height varies between the rib first and second ends such that the free edge follows a curvilinear path between the rib first and second ends. The free edge is configured so that, during insertion of a printed circuit board (PCB) of the ECU into the housing, the angular orientation of the PCB relative to housing changes as the PCB slides along the free edge whereby interference between the PCB and the housing during insertion is avoided.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2016Date of Patent: April 2, 2019Assignees: Robert Bosch LLC, Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Ligor Manushi, Keith Gerber, Alexander Moore
