Package for electronic components
First Claim
1. Package for electronic components of a switch which is connected to outside circuit components by conductors, which switch is comprised of at least one sensing component, sensing and measuring components, output-control components, and power components, some of which components are relatively highly power-dissipative, which package comprises:
- first packing means for supporting the at least one sensing component in a first portion of the switch, the first packing means comprising;
(a) means for isolating the at least one sensing component electrically from an environment in which the first packing means is disposed; and
p2 (b) means for conducting at least one physical property which si descriptive of the environment to the at least on sensing component;
second packing means for supporting and separating the sensing and measuring components and the output-control components from the power components; and
third packing means, disposed in a capsule, for supporting the highly power-dissipative components, the third packing comprising;
means for isolating the highly power dissipative components electrically from an environment in which the third packing means is disposed andfor dissipating heat generated by the highly power-dissipative components wherein heat from the components is conducted to the capsule and to the conductors.

Abstract
Package for electronic components of a switch, which switch includes sensing components such as thermistor, measuring components, and output-control components, some of which components are relatively highly power-dissipative. A first portion of the switch supports the thermistor in a bushing wherein the head of the thermistor is bonded to the bushing with an electrically insulating material and the head of the thermistor is bonded to a wall of the package with a thermally conductive material, all of which bonding provides shock and vibration protection for the thermistor. Heat is removed from the highly power-dissipative components by a thermally conductive material which conducts heat from the components to a surrounding capsule and by wires which connect the switch to outside circuit components.
