ABSTRACT:
A mechanical coupling device for selectively connecting and disconnecting an apparatus to a thermal source. The coupling device includes a thermal bridge element comprised of a flexible structure having a first coefficient of thermal expansion, and a thermal stress element disposed about the thermal bridge element with the thermal stress element having a second coefficient of thermal expansion. The difference in coefficients of thermal expansion act to cause stressing of the thermal bridge element into thermal contact with the apparatus.
