Abstract
A fastening device can be rapidly handled without tools for securing a module of electronic components within a housing. The device brings the module into thermally conductive contact with the housing to assure heat transfer for cooling the module. For this purpose there is proposed a hook-shaped lever which is pivoted on the module and is suspended on the housing. During a swinging movement, the lever moves the module initially parallel to a contact surface and thereupon towards it. The module is additionally supported on an outer support in the housing.
