Cooled reception housing for automobile electronic control devices - with circulated cooling medium fed through cooling device above cooling jacket enclosing housing

摘要

The reception housing (10) has an opening (16) fitted with a cover (13) enclosed by a cooling jacket (18) on all sides, with the exception of the cover, through which a cooling medium (24) is circulated. The cooling medium is fed around a closed circuit in contact with the outer surface of the housing, including a cooling device (26) above the surface (20) of the cooling medium. Pref. the cooling device lies above the cooling jacket and is coupled to the latter via at least one coupling element (25), the cooling medium returned to the cooling medium via gravity. ADVANTAGE - Effective removal of waste heat generated by several electronic control devices.
