Patent ID: 7428151

Claim:
A cooling arrangement with a housing for receiving electronic printed circuit boards or plug-in modules with at least one electronic component to be cooled on the respective printed circuit board or plug-in module, the cooling arrangement comprising: an air-conditioning device ( 14 ) having a coolant-conducting feed line ( 16 ) and a return-flow line ( 18 ); a component support ( 12 ) formed of a support frame ( 60 ); each of the printed circuit boards or plug-in modules being releasably connected to a front of the support frame ( 60 ), and having an area ( 10 . 1 ) for fitting electronic components and a coupling area ( 10 . 2 ) including a component feed line ( 20 ) with a first coupling element ( 24 ) and a component return-flow line ( 22 ) with a second coupling element ( 26 ); and rear transition modules ( 38 ) forming a portion of a rear wall of the housing ( 12 ), each of the rear transition modules ( 38 ) releasably connected to the housing by screw connections ( 38 a , 38 b ), each of the rear transition modules ( 38 ) assigned a corresponding printed circuit board or plug-in module, each of the rear transition modules ( 39 ) including a plug connector ( 40 ) for electrical input and output signals, which are engaged by a corresponding electric counter plug connector ( 42 ) of the printed circuit board or the plug-in module; each of the rear transition modules ( 38 ) including a first counter coupling element ( 28 ) connected to the feed line ( 16 ) and a second counter coupling element ( 30 ) connected to the return-flow line ( 18 ), wherein the first counter coupling element ( 28 ) forms a releasable coupled connection with the first coupling element ( 24 ) and the second counter coupling element ( 30 ) forms a releasable coupled connection with the second coupling element ( 26 ).
