The invention is related to an electrical circuitry assembly as well as a method for manufacturing such an electrical circuitry assembly, wherein the assembly basically but not exclusively comprising of an electrically conductive metal plate and a circuit including a conductive layer and wherein both the metal plate and the circuit shall be electrically connected to each other.

Electrical circuitry assembly and method for manufacturing the same

A system, device and method for opening an electromechanical system of a vehicle. The system includes a capacitive emblem switch and a transponder, where the transponder includes an identifier of the vehicle. The capacitive emblem switch is activated when the user is in proximity of the vehicle with the transponder. The electromechanical system, such as a rear hatch of the vehicle opens when the user motions in front of the activated capacitive emblem switch. In embodiments, the capacitive emblem switch may be incorporated into a vehicle logo or a vehicle model number. In an embodiment, LED lights are used to indicate activation of the capacitive emblem switch. The LED lights may change color to indicate a completion of the method. The capacitive emblem switch may be transparent. The transponder may be a key fob.

Vehicle emblem incorporating capacitive switch and LED lighting

A method of and the device for making a LED assembly that contains regionally rigid structures that are made by bending, folding, or forming a flexible hybrid heat spreading laminate is provided. The hybrid heat spreading laminate comprises a thin heat spreader layer in the range of 100-150 micrometers. The hybrid heat spreading laminate has enhanced heat conductivity and thermal emissivity.

Use of flexible circuits incorporating a heat spreading layer and the rigidizing specific areas within such a construction by creating stiffening structures within said circuits by either folding, bending, forming or combinations thereof
