APPARATUS MODULE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18561052 titled 'APPARATUS MODULE

The patent application describes an apparatus module for vehicles that includes a rigid member placed in the in-roof space between the roof panel and an interior member, with an apparatus fixed to the rigid member. The rigid member has a heat receiving part that absorbs heat from the apparatus and a heat radiation part that dissipates the heat, connected by a heat transfer path within the rigid member.

  • The apparatus module is designed to be fixed to the roof panel of a vehicle.
  • The rigid member has a heat receiving part that absorbs heat from the apparatus.
  • A heat radiation part in the rigid member dissipates the absorbed heat.
  • Heat is transferred between the heat receiving part and the heat radiation part via a heat transfer path within the rigid member.
  • The heat receiving part and heat radiation part are positioned away from each other on the surface of the rigid member.
