  • Patent number: 11659699
    Abstract: A power electronics unit may include a circuit board and a cooling device. The circuit board may include at least one electronic component which, in a heat transfer region, is disposed flat against an electronics side of the circuit board. The cooling device may include at least one impingement jet chamber through which a cooling fluid is flowable from an inlet to an outlet. The cooling device may further include at least one nozzle plate having at least one flow nozzle. The at least one nozzle plate may be arranged in and divide the at least one impingement jet chamber into an inlet chamber and an outlet chamber, which may be fluidically connected to one another via the at least one flow nozzle. The at least one flow nozzle may accelerate and conduct the cooling fluid towards the heat transfer region of the at least one electronic component.

  • Publication number: 20220408932
    Abstract: A seating or reclining furniture is disclosed. The seating or reclining furniture includes at least one ventilatable surface region and a radial blower. The at least one ventilatable surface region includes a shaping foam layer, an air-distributing knitted spacer fabric, an air-conveying knitted spacer fabric, and an air-permeable cover layer. The radial blower is connected in an air-transferring manner to the air-distributing knitted spacer fabric. The radial blower is arranged on an edge side of the air-distributing knitted spacer fabric such that at least one of a blowing of air into the air-distributing knitted spacer fabric and an extraction of air from the air-distributing knitted spacer fabric is providable via the radial blower essentially parallel to a surface plane of the air-distributing knitted spacer fabric.

  • Patent number: 10813239
    Abstract: A cooling arrangement may include a fluid-tight housing in which a power electronics system and a dielectric fluid for cooling the power electronics system may be arranged. The dielectric fluid may be in heat-transferring contact with the power electronics system and may cool the power electronics system via a fluid movement. The fluid movement may be provided via acceleration forces acting on the cooling arrangement.

  • Publication number: 20200198509
    Abstract: A child seat assembly for a vehicle is disclosed. The child seat assembly includes a seat cover and an air conditioning module including a fan. The fan is structured and arranged to couple to the seat cover to guide air, and such that air conveyed by the fan can flow through the seat cover. The seat cover has an air-guiding inner layer, an outer layer, and a bottom layer, with the air-guiding inner layer arranged between the outer layer and the bottom layer. The seat cover has a hem that laterally closes the inner air-guiding layer. At least one outlet opening, through which air can flow, is provided in the hem, such that the air flowing out of the seat cover flows through the at least one outlet opening.
