Vehicle-mounted control device
Provided is an in-vehicle control device which is able to protect a seal material even when being interposed by a fixing member which is fixed to a vehicle while suppressing the protruding of the seal material toward an inner space. The in-vehicle control device includes a first housing ( 20 ), a second housing ( 30 ) which is fixed to face the first housing ( 20 ), and a seal material ( 40 ) which seals the inner space which is disposed between a flange of the first housing ( 20 ) and a flange of the second housing ( 30 ) and is formed by the first housing ( 20 ) and the second housing ( 30 ). The first housing ( 20 ) includes a shape ( 22 ) (bank-shaped portion) which is disposed on a side near an inner space ( 11 ) from the seal material ( 40 ), faces the flange of the second housing ( 30 ), and suppresses the moving of the seal material ( 40 ) toward the inner space ( 11 ).
1. An in-vehicle control device, comprising:
a first housing;
a second housing which is fixed to face the first housing and spaced apart from the first housing in a vertical direction to form a groove; and
a seal material which seals an inner space, the inner space being disposed between a flange of the first housing and a flange of the second housing and formed by the first housing and the second housing, wherein
the first housing comprises
a first bank-shaped portion which is set at a first height and is disposed on an inner side of the first housing near the inner space from the seal material, faces the flange of the second housing, and suppresses the moving of the seal material toward the inner space, and
a second bank-shaped portion which is set at a second height lower than the first height and is disposed on an outer side of the first housing from the seal material, wherein at least a portion of the second bank-shaped portion faces away from the flange of the second housing,
wherein the seal material fills the inner space to a third height higher than the second height, the seal material extending beyond the inner space to fill an entirety of the groove between the first housing and the second housing and to cover at least a portion of an outer peripheral edge of the flange of the first housing and an outer peripheral edge of the second housing,
the first bank-shaped portion is disposed between a third flat portion formed on an outer peripheral side of the first housing and a fourth flat portion formed on an outer peripheral side of the second housing,
the flange of the first housing projects from an outer side surface of the first housing,
the flange of the second housing projects from an outer side surface of the second housing,
the first bank-shaped portion at least partially overlaps with at least the third flat portion in a horizontal direction, the third flat portion and the fourth flat portion being spaced apart in a vertical direction orthogonal to the horizontal direction, wherein an entirety of the first bank-shaped portion is contained in an area between the third flat portion and the fourth flat portion in the vertical direction,
the third flat portion and the fourth flat portion are configured to be fixed to a fixing member of a vehicle, and
a gap communicating with the inner space formed between the first bank-shaped portion and the second housing, the gap providing a clearance in the vertical direction between the first bank-shaped portion and the second housing and a clearance in the horizontal direction between the seal material and the inner space.
2. The in-vehicle control device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first bank-shaped portion partially abuts on the second housing.
3. The in-vehicle control device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first bank-shaped portion includes a first flat portion which faces the flange of the second housing.
4. The in-vehicle control device according to claim 3 ,
wherein the second housing includes a second flat portion which faces the first flat portion.
5. The in-vehicle control device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first housing or the second housing includes an end portion which is inserted into the groove.
6. The in-vehicle control device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the groove has a stepped shape.
7. The in-vehicle control device according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a fastening member which fastens the first housing and the second housing,
wherein the first bank-shaped portion is disposed on a side near the inner space from the fastening member.
8. The in-vehicle control device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the first bank-shaped portion is disposed between a portion of the first housing abutting on a first portion of a fixing member which interposes the in-vehicle control device to be fixed to a vehicle and a portion of the second housing abutting on a second portion of the fixing member.
9. The in-vehicle control device according to claim 1 ,
wherein at least part of the first bank-shaped portion is formed to coincide with the flange of the first housing in the horizontal direction, and the second bank-shaped portion is separated from the second housing.
10. The in-vehicle control device according to claim 4 , wherein the clearance in the vertical direction is provided between the first flat portion of the first bank-shaped portion and the second flat portion of the second housing.
11. The in-vehicle control device according to claim 1 , wherein the gap suppresses contact of the seal material with the inner space.
12. The in-vehicle control device according to claim 1 , wherein the third height is set higher than both the first height and the second height.
