Electronic component and imaging device comprising an external device connection having a case portion connection portion and an external conductor connection portion
To provide an imaging device and an electronic component for the imaging device that are capable of achieving both electromagnetic wave shielding and heat radiation. An external connection connector of a rear housing includes a resin holding portion, and the holding portion includes a case portion connection portion that holds a metal case portion, and a shielding member connection portion that holds a metal shielding member. Accordingly, with a housing including a rear housing, and an imaging device including the housing, heat generated by an electric component can be radiated to the outside effectively with the metal case portion. Furthermore, the metal shielding member can also exert the effect of shielding a pin terminal from electromagnetic waves.

a housing that includes
a case portion that accommodates a substrate on which a connector is mounted, and
an external device connection to which an external device is fitted and connected; and
the external device connection including
an internal conductor that becomes conductively connected to the external device, and
a tubular metal external conductor that accommodates the internal conductor,
wherein the case portion is made of metal, and
wherein the external device connection includes a rigid resin holding portion including a case portion connection portion that holds the case portion, and an external conductor connection portion that holds the external conductor.
2. The electronic component according to claim 1 ,
wherein the holding portion includes a fitting portion to which the external device is fitted.
3. The electronic component according to claim 1 ,
wherein the external conductor includes
a fitting chamber at an end portion of the external conductor on a case portion side, the fitting chamber accommodating the connector, and
a female terminal conductively contacted to the connector accommodated in the fitting chamber.
4. The electronic component according to claim 3 ,
wherein the female terminal includes at least one curved contact spring piece that press contacts, from an outer side, a conductive contact portion provided on an outer peripheral surface of the connector.
5. The electronic component according to claim 4 ,
wherein the female terminal includes a plurality of the contact spring pieces, the contact spring pieces being disposed along the outer peripheral surface of the connector.
6. The electronic component according to claim 1 ,
wherein the external conductor includes a protruding end portion that protrudes inside an inner space of the case portion at an end portion of the external conductor on a case portion side.
7. The electronic component according to claim 1 ,
wherein the holding portion is formed of carbon fiber reinforced resin.
8. The electronic component according to claim 1 ,
wherein the holding portion includes one molded fixing surface that is firmly fixed to the case portion, and
the other molded fixing surface that is firmly fixed to the external conductor, the holding portion being integrally structured with the case portion and the external conductors as an insert molded body.
9. An imaging device comprising:
the electronic component according to claim 1 .
