    In order to protect an electrical device or a control device against environmental influences or mechanical stress, they are usually used in special housing, which may be made, for example, partially made of plastic and partially made of aluminum. In this case, e.g. the lower housing part made by injection molding of plastic. The housing will then be e.g. closed with an aluminum lid. These two housing parts can be connected to each other, for example by screws, rivets or by gluing. Between the two housing parts usually a seal is attached, which is usually made of liquid silicone.
    The mounted in the housing electrical device or control device usually comprises a support plate on which an electronic circuit is arranged. This circuit, from which the respective control or regulation is carried out, is usually made of semiconductor components or so-called semiconductor chips - such as e.g. Microcontroller, memory modules, etc. built. Such controllers are often provided with a so-called Eigenintelligenz -d.h. they consist of a stand-alone computer or processor in the form of an embedded system. Depending on the task of the electrical device or the controller, the circuit may vary in complexity.
    In this case, the circuit of the control device often semiconductor components, of which a mostly thermal power loss -. Heat - is produced. For example, in order to prevent damage or overheating of the electrical device or the control device or a malfunction of its function by the power loss or heat production of these semiconductor devices, it is necessary to derive the heat accordingly and to provide cooling of the electrical device. Usually, this is the support plate on which the power dissipating semiconductor devices
    SUBSCRIBED 3 201005541, with heat-dissipating parts {e.g. Heatsink, Entwärmungsteil, etc.) connected. About these additional parts then the heat is derived accordingly - usually from the housing. Of these parts, therefore, a so-called thermal bridge is formed to transport the heat generated from the interior of the housing to the outside. However, the attachment of heat-dissipating parts has the disadvantage that in the manufacture and assembly of the electrical device additional expense and costs. For the heat-dissipating parts must, for example, in a separate step, e.g. be applied by rivets, screws or by gluing with the support plate according to achieve a heat-conducting effect.
    Presentation of the invention
    The invention is therefore based on the object to provide a cooling device for an electrical device and an associated manufacturing method by which a simple and cost-saving manner, a power loss produced by the electrical device is derived accurately.
    The solution of this object is achieved by a cooling device of the type specified, wherein on the at least one power dissipating element producing a Anpress-Dom is arranged such that a mechanical and thermal contacting of the support plate with e.g. a cooling element is guaranteed.
    The main aspect of the proposed solution according to the invention is that pressing domes are set directly via power-dissipating elements - usually semiconductor elements - of the carrier plate. These pressure dome are preferably located in a first housing part and provide - in particular by a spring action - for a mechanical and thermal contacting of the support plate with a cooling element such. a second housing part (e.g.
    SUBSCRIPTION 4 201005541 aluminum cover). As a result, the heat loss of the elements on the support plate and the cooling element is transported in a simple and reliable manner. Damage by e.g. Overheating, etc. of the electrical device are thus prevented.
    It is advantageous if the Anpress-Dom is made as a seal for the housing of liquid silicone, since then the at least one Anpress-Dom in the same step as the seal produced and attachable in the corresponding housing part. In this way, costs can be saved in the manufacture and assembly of the electrical device with housing, since no separate step for attaching heat-dissipating parts is more necessary.
    It is favorable if, after an assembly step, the breaker dome is pressed onto the at least one power loss producing element with a pressure force of 100 to 200 Newtons. Ideally - after the assembly step - the Anpress-Dom is compressed to three quarters of its unloaded height. By the pressing force or the compression of the Anpress-Doms a spring effect is achieved and thereby secure mechanical and thermal contacting of the support plate with e.g. a cooling element or a heat-dissipating housing part (e.g., housing cover). The pressure dome are e.g. arranged in a first or lower housing part so that they are pressed on the power loss producing elements. The e.g. After closing the housing resulting pressing force then ensures that the element or the support plate corresponding to the heat dissipating part - for example, the housing cover - are pressed. The resulting heat loss is thereby safely from the housing inside off or. away from the electrical device.
    The solution of the above object is also achieved by a method for producing the cooling device according to the invention for an electrical device, wherein at a
    FOLLOW-UP 201005541 • ft 5 ft «····« «*» · 4 · * * 4 «i · | * * * # * * »* 9 arranged a support plate arranged electronic circuit with at least one power dissipating element over this element a Anpress-Dom such and then in an assembly step of the Anpress-Dom is pressed such that for the support plate a thermal and mechanical contacting eg guaranteed with a cooling element.
    The main aspect of the method according to the invention is that by producing a mechanical and thermal contact between the carrier plate and a cooling element (eg housing cover, etc.) - especially in the areas in which power-dissipating elements are mounted - the heat loss to safe and simple way is derived. This prevents damage to the electrical device caused by heat. The use of Anpress-Domen also has the advantage of cost savings, since that operation can be omitted, in which, for example, heat-dissipating parts are screwed, riveted or glued to the support plate.
    The Anpress-dome is advantageously made of liquid silicone, which can be mounted in a first housing part in a simple manner. It is advantageous if a so-called injection molding process is used for this purpose. In this way, the necessary pressure domes together with the seal for the housing in one operation, e.g. be applied in a first housing part before the electrical device is arranged in the housing. The injection molding process is given positions and number for the Anpress-Dome so that they are positioned exactly over the power loss producing elements of the electrical device.
    Ideally, in the assembly step, the Anpress-Dom is pressed with a pressure of 100 to 200 Newton on the power dissipation element and thus on the carrier plate. The Anpress-Dom is on three quarters or
    I subsequently submitted I compressed about 75% of its unloaded height and stretched like a spring. From a resulting pressure force is then provided for a secure mechanical and thermal contacting of the support plate with a cooling element or 5 a heat loss dissipating housing cover. This secure contact is achieved for example by an assembly of the housing parts in the assembly step. Thus, a separate connection operation, in which e.g. the support plate is connected to cooling elements by screwing or 10 sticking, omitted.
    In a further optimization of the method according to the invention, a first housing part for the electrical device made of thermoplastic is first produced in a first step in the injection molding process. In a second step, then the at least one Anpress-Dom and the seal for the housing made of liquid silicone is applied. In a further step - the assembling step - after inserting the electrical device or the control device, the second housing part (for example housing cover) can then be attached in a simple manner and connected to the first housing part, e.g. be connected by means of screws. By closing the housing of the at least one Anpress-Dom is pressed onto the at least one power dissipation producing element. The resulting pressing force is achieved in a simple and cost-effective manner for a mechanical and thermal contacting of the carrier plate with e.g. provided the second housing part or the housing cover and passed through this heat in a safe and simple manner from the housing 30. The Anpress-Dom or the Anpress-Dome have an effect as a spring,

    Embodiment of the invention
    FIG. 1 schematically and by way of example shows a section through an electronic device, for example a control device for the motor vehicle sector, which is located in a housing and has a cooling device according to the invention.
    The housing of the controller consists of two housing parts 1 and 5. A first or lower housing part 1 is made for example of thermoplastic. A second housing part 5 or housing cover 5 is made, for example, of metal, such as e.g. Made of aluminum and can therefore be used for a dissipation of heat or as a heat sink. Between the two housing parts 1 and 5, a seal 6 is attached, which is usually made by injection molding of liquid silicone. The two housing parts 1 and 5 are connected by means of connecting elements 7 such. Screws, rivets, etc. interconnected.
    Inside the housing, the electrical device is mounted, which comprises a support plate 3. On the support plate 3, an electronic circuit is arranged, from which the actual electrical device or control unit is formed. The electronic circuit is constructed of electronic components 2 - usually called semiconductor devices. Of these semiconductor devices usually during the operation of the electrical device, a power loss - usually in the form of heat - produced. Submitted 8 201005541
    Directly at the power loss producing electrical components 2 in the first and lower housing part 1 Anpress dome 4 are mounted such that after insertion of the electrical device or the support plate 3 with the electrical circuit, the power loss producing electrical components 2 on the Anpress-Domen. 4 to lie down. From the point of view of the support plate 3 and the electrical circuit are the Anpress-Dome 4 thus on the power loss producing devices 2. The Anpress-Dome 4 are - like the seal 6 - made by injection molding of liquid silicone.
    After closing the housing, e.g. by means of screws 7, the pressing-dome 4 exert a kind of spring action, which will be explained in more detail in the following figures 2b and 2c. It then acts a pressing force F of the Anpress-Domen 4 on the electrical component 2 and thus on the support plate 3. This ensures a secure mechanical and thermal contacting of the support plate 3 with the second housing part 5 and the housing cover 5 is reached. Through this contacting the housing cover 5 acts as a heat sink and the heat loss, which is produced by the electronic components 2, is away from the housing interior or away from the electrical device.
    Figure 2a shows an example and schematically the first and lower housing part 1 before inserting the electrical device or the support plate 3 with the electrical circuit. The lower housing part 1 is produced for example by means of a so-called 2K injection molding or 2-shoot molding process. Here, in a first step - a so-called first shot - by injection molding of the lower housing part 1 made of a thermoplastic (plastic). After solidification of the lower housing part 1, in a second step or second shot, the seal 6 as well as the pressure-dome 4 necessary for the power loss will be supplied later 9 9 · 4 * * »*» 201005541
    Liquid silicone molded in the form of a separate injection unit.
    After completion of the injection molding process, the electrical device - i. the support plate 3 with the electrical circuit - are inserted into the lower housing part 1. In this case, in each case from the perspective of the support plate 3 over each power dissipating device 2 produced a Anpress-Dom 4 made of liquid silicone - i. each power dissipating component 2 comes to rest on a press-on dome 4, from which a mechanical and thermal contacting of the support plate 3 with a heat sink, such as a heat sink. the housing cover 5 is guaranteed.
    FIGS. 2 b and 2 c show, in an exemplary and schematic manner, an assembly of the cooling device according to the invention.
    FIG. 2b shows a first part of an assembly step on the basis of a section through the electrical device with housing. After the carrier plate 3 has been inserted into the first housing part 1 with the electrical circuit or with the power-dissipating components 2, the contact-domes 4, which have been made of liquid silicone by means of injection molding in the first housing part 1, so located in that the power-loss producing components 2 are covered by the pressing domes 4. That From the perspective of the carrier plate 3 is located above each power dissipating device 2 a Anpress-Dom 4. About the support plate 3 with the components 2, the second housing part 5 and the housing cover 5 is then attached, which is made of aluminum, for example. For the closure of the housing are in the first part of the mounting step in both housing parts 1 and 5 in designated openings closure elements 7 such. Inserted screws. For a seal of the housing 10,20005541 is usually provided later the seal 6, which may also be made of liquid silicone, is provided.
    FIG. 2c schematically shows, by way of example, a second part of the assembly step. In the second part, the housing cover 5 is fastened by the closure elements 7 on the first housing part 1 and the housing is closed. This can be done for example by tightening the screws 7. When closing the housing, the pressing dome 4 are pressed together - to about three quarters or 75% of their unloaded height. This creates a spring effect, which is pressed by the Anpress-Dome with a pressure force F of 100 to 200 Newton on the components 2 and thus on the support plate 3. By the pressing force F is then contacted by the support plate 3 - in particular in the areas of power dissipation-producing components 2 -der housing cover 5 mechanically and thermally.
    As a result, the power loss or heat loss is transported away from the housing in a simple and secure manner and thus prevents damage to the electrical device. By the use of the pressing dome 4 of liquid silicone can also be a step in which own heat dissipating parts on the support plate 3, for. By riveting, screwing or gluing be omitted, which can be additionally saved costs in the production of the electrical device with housing. f later 11 201005541
