Abstract
An apparatus is provided for receiving, at least partially, an electric/electronic component in an internal housing area, in particular for commercial vehicles. A first housing component at least partially forms the internal housing area and a cover at least partially surrounds the internal housing area. The cover is designed such that at least one electrically conductive connecting element for electrically coupling the electric/electronic component to at least one additional electric/electronic component provided outside of the internal housing area is fixed by the cover. A method for assembling the apparatus is also provided.
Claims13
An apparatus for at least partially holding an electrical/electronic component in an internal area of a housing, comprising:
- a first housing component configured to at least partially form the internal area;
- a second housing component configured to at least partially close the internal area of the housing, the second housing component being configured such that at least one electrically conductive connecting element for electrically coupling the electrical/electronic component to a further electrical/electronic component provided outside of the internal area of the housing is fixed by the second housing component,
- wherein the electrical/electronic component is clamped between an edge section of the first housing component and an edge section of the second housing component,
- wherein the edge section of the second housing component that clamps the electrical/electronic component is formed as a sprung arm,
- wherein one section of the sprung arm is directly coupled to the first housing component while a neighboring adjacent section of the sprung arm forms the clamp.
