Mounting method and apparatus for electrical components

摘要

A heat sink is formed from a base component and a clamping component. The base component and clamping component include a locking groove and a tab for insertion into the locking groove. The clamping component includes at least one clamping leg. The base component includes a surface. The clamping leg is designed to snap over the surface to couple the two components together and capture between them in heat conducting relationship with at least one of the components at least one device which evolves heat during its operation.
