Patent ID: 7746653

Claim:
An assembly for clamping electrical components against a heat-dissipating surface of a heat sink, the assembly comprising: a heat sink comprising a heat-dissipating surface; a plurality of electrical components comprising a first electrical component a second electrical component, a third electrical component, and a fourth electrical component; a plurality of resilient members comprising a first resilient member and a second resilient member, where: each of the first resilient member and the second resilient member comprises a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface; the second surface of each of the first resilient member and the second resilient member comprises a contact region, a second contact region, and an attachment region located between the first contact region and the second contact region; the second surface of the first resilient member positioned to overlap the first surface of the second resilient member; the first contact region of the second surface of the first resilient member positioned to hold the first electronic component against the heat-dissipating surface; the first contact region of the second surface of the second resilient member positioned to hold the second electronic component against the heat-dissipating surface; the second contact region of the second surface of the second resilient member positioned to hold the third electronic component against the heat-dissipating surface; and the second contact region of the second surface of the first resilient member positioned to hold the fourth electronic component against the heat-dissipating surface; and a single fastener, the single fastener operable to couple the resilient members to the heat sink in the attachment region of each of the first resilient member and the second resilient member.
