  • Publication number: 20260190285
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a cooler (1) through which fluid can flow for cooling power electronics (200) comprising a first metal part (11), a second metal part (12), a cooling structure (14) and a reinforcing part (13). The first metal part (11) and the second metal part (12) are connected to each other and define a cooling channel (10) between them through which a fluid can flow. The first metal part (11) comprises a receiving area (110) for receiving the power electronics (200) to be cooled. The cooling structure (14) is located in the cooling channel (10) and connected to the first metal part (11) and the second metal part (12). The reinforcing part (13) is secured to the first metal part (11). Furthermore, the invention relates to a power electronics arrangement (1000) having a cooler (1) of this type and power electronics (200).
