Abstract
A heat transferring device comprises two massive thermally conductive bodies arranged vertically on top of one another and spaced apart by a variable distance. One or more spreading elements are positioned between the thermally conductive bodies and respectively comprise two horizontally movable wedges with wedge tips pointing in opposite directions and a spring pressing apart the wedges. The thermally conductive bodies have corresponding sliding surfaces extending parallel to the wedge surfaces. Motion of the wedges in the horizontal direction is converted into vertical motion of the thermally conductive bodies to thereby automatically adapt the height of the entire device to a respective installation situation.
