Abstract

1312404 Mounting electrical equipment SINGER CO 20 July 1971 [22 Oct 1970] 33924/71 Heading H1R A modular electronic system comprises stacked electronic units 11, a front mounting plate 13, and a rear mounting plate 18. Each unit 11 has a hollow metal frame 20, e.g. of aluminium, having apertures 27, 28 and slots 29a, 29b, 32a, 32b connecting the apertures with the hollow interior. A heat conductive structural member 31 may also be provided. When stacked, the units form ducts 66, 67, 68 by virtue of apertures 28, the hollow frame interiors, and apertures 27 respectively. A cooling medium, supplied through orifice 14, flows through duct 66 and then in parallel through the ducts 67. During its passage through each duct 67 the cooling medium removes heat generated by the electronic circuits via metallic sheets 41, 35. The sheets, preferably of copper, are bonded to the metal frames by adhesive 44. Circuit boards 33, 39 are in turn bonded to the metallic sheets via electrical insulating means 37, 42 respectively, heat generated by the circuitry passing via means 37, 42 to the metallic sheets. The cooling medium exits via duct 68 and orifice 69. Units 11 each have male contacts mounted on border member 25, the contacts engaging with female contacts mounted on an interconnection board at the base of the system housing (Figs. 2-4, not shown). The male contacts have a width, perpendicular to the component carrying surfaces of boards 33, 39, considerably in excess of their thickness. The co-operating female contacts are tight fitting with respect to thickness but loose fitting with respect to width to allow movement of the units between the front and rear plates 13, 18 and to take up any dimensional inaccuracies. In some instances two separate interconnecting boards (50), (52), (Fig. 3, not shown), may be used, the boards being electrically connected by means of a flexible wiring tape (53) passing through a dummy unit (54). The units and the front and rear mounting plates are held together by arms (19), (Fig. 1, not shown), hinged to rear plate 18, the arms engaging upper notches 21 of the metal frames, the lower notches 21 engaging lower guide rods.
