a plurality of pins erected on the first electronic substrate and configured to electrically connect the first electronic substrate and the second electronic substrate;
a pin guide that has a plurality of guide holes where the pins are inserted, respectively, and defines positions of the pins such that the pins are connectable to the second electronic substrate while the pins are installed in the first electronic substrate; and
a pin holding member that collectively holds the plurality of the pins erected on the first electronic substrate in the first electronic substrate,
wherein
the pin holding member has a seat portion where the second electronic substrate seats while the second electronic substrate is installed, and
the pin guide has a claw portion that is configured to hold the second electronic substrate along with the seat portion.
2. The electronic substrate connecting structure according to claim 1 , wherein
the second electronic substrate has a plurality of terminal portions where the pins are connected, and
the pin guide causes tips of the pins to match positions of the terminal portions while the pin guide is installed in the first electronic substrate.
3. The electronic substrate connecting structure according to claim 1 , wherein
each of the guide holes has a tapered portion formed in an inner circumference and narrowed from the first electronic substrate toward the second electronic substrate to allow a second electronic substrate side to approximately match an exterior of the respective pin.
4. The electronic substrate connecting structure according to claim 1 , wherein
each of the guide holes has a curved portion in an end portion where the respective pin is inserted.
5. The electronic substrate connecting structure according to claim 1 , wherein
the pin guide has a further claw portion engaged with the pin holding member or the first electronic substrate to define a relative position while the pins are inserted in the guide holes, respectively.
6. The electronic substrate connecting structure according to claim 1 , wherein
the pin guide has a plurality of protrusions that are erected toward the second electronic substrate and internally have the guide holes, respectively, and
the second electronic substrate seats on tips of the protrusions while the second electronic substrate is installed.
7. An electronic substrate connecting structure for electrically connecting first and second electronic substrates arranged to face each other, said electronic substrate connecting structure comprising:
a plurality of pins erected on the first electronic substrate and configured to electrically connect the first electronic substrate and the second electronic substrate; and
a pin guide that has a plurality of guide holes where the pins are inserted, respectively, and defines positions of the pins such that the pins are connectable to the second electronic substrate while the pins are installed in the first electronic substrate,
wherein
the first electronic substrate is a power supply substrate that is configured to control power,
the second electronic substrate is a control substrate that is configured to control a control target, and
the pin guide has a capacitor holding portion that is configured to hold a capacitor electrically connected to the power supply substrate.
8. The electronic substrate connecting structure according to claim 7 , wherein
the second electronic substrate has a plurality of terminal portions where the pins are connected, and
the pin guide causes tips of the pins to match positions of the terminal portions while the pin guide is installed in the first electronic substrate.
9. The electronic substrate connecting structure according to claim 7 , wherein
each of the guide holes has a tapered portion formed in an inner circumference and narrowed from the first electronic substrate toward the second electronic substrate to allow a second electronic substrate side to approximately match an exterior of the respective pin.
10. The electronic substrate connecting structure according to claim 7 , wherein
each of the guide holes has a curved portion in an end portion where the respective pin is inserted.
11. The electronic substrate connecting structure according to claim 7 , wherein
the pin guide has a plurality of protrusions that are erected toward the second electronic substrate and internally have the guide holes, respectively, and
the second electronic substrate seats on tips of the protrusions while the second electronic substrate is installed.
