The patent US12022615B2 describes a circuit board mounting support designed to securely hold a first electronic circuit integration, which includes a circuit board and at least one electronic component. The support features a bearing member with a groove and an engaging portion that interfaces with the circuit board's second surface. This design allows for the mounting area of the circuit board to align with the groove, ensuring that the engaging portion maintains contact with the board. Additionally, the support includes multiple legs that connect to the bearing member, with their junctions positioned outside the corresponding area of the circuit board.

Further enhancements to the mounting support include provisions for a dissipating apparatus and a fixing member that stabilizes the circuit board. The fixing member can be secured to the circuit board and the dissipating apparatus using bolts and nuts, effectively sandwiching the circuit board in place. The design also incorporates various damping devices to mitigate vibrations and provide stability. These damping devices are strategically placed to interact with the fixing member and the legs of the support, ensuring that the assembly remains secure and functional under operational conditions. Overall, the patent outlines a comprehensive solution for mounting circuit boards while addressing thermal management and mechanical stability.
