Abstract
A cooling module includes a cooling element having a closed central part and heat-conducting elements on two sides of the central part, as well as a feeding apparatus for air. The feeding apparatus is designed as an integrated twin fan which, on the one hand, feeds ambient air from one side of the central part and, on the other hand, feeds ambient air from the other side of the central part to the cooling element.
Claims8
A cooling module comprising:
- a cooling element having a closed central part sealing regions lying on first and second opposite sides of the closed central part against each other, wherein the cooling element also includes heat-conducting elements on the first and second sides of the closed central part;
- and
- an integrated twin fan configured to feed ambient air from the first side of the closed central part and configured to feed ambient air from the second side of the closed central part to the cooling element, wherein the integrated twin fan has two fan wheels sealed against each other and an electric drive motor configured to drive the two fan wheels, wherein the twin fan is a radial fan.
A headlight comprising:
- a self-contained internal volume;
- a transparent cover disc;
- lighting means;
- means for mechanically and/or electrically controlling the lighting means;
- and
- a cooling module comprising
- a cooling element having a closed central part sealing regions lying on first and second opposite sides of the closed central part against each other, wherein the cooling element also includes heat-conducting elements on the first and second sides of the closed central part;
- and
- an integrated twin fan configured to feed ambient air from the first side of the closed central part and configured to feed ambient air from the second side of the closed central part to the cooling element, wherein the integrated twin fan has two fan wheels sealed against each other and an electric drive motor configured to drive the two fan wheels,
- wherein the closed central part forms a part of a boundary of the internal volume such that the heat-conducting elements of the first side protrude into the internal volume and the heat-conducting elements of the second side protrude into the surrounding environment, and wherein the twin fan is a radial fan.
