Abstract

An electronic unit attaching structure includes an electronic unit ( 30 ) having a plurality of connector connection portions ( 33, 34 ) and an electronic unit attachment ( 20 ) having a plurality of connectors (C 1 , C 2 ) correspond to the plurality of the connector connection portions. The electronic unit attaching structure is configured to allow first connection and second connection in this order when the electronic unit ( 30 ) is attached to the electronic unit attachment ( 20 ). The first connection is a connection of first part (C 2 ) of the plurality of the connectors with first part ( 34 ) of the plurality of the connector connection portions. The second connection is a connection of second part (C 1 ) of the plurality of the connectors with second part ( 33 ) of the plurality of the connector connection portions.

Claims (12)

1. An electronic unit attaching structure comprising:

an electronic unit having a plurality of connector connection portions; and an electronic unit attachment having a plurality of connectors correspond to the plurality of the connector connection portions,

the electronic unit attaching structure being configured to allow first connection and second connection in this order upon the electronic unit being attached to the electronic unit attachment, the first connection being a connection of first part of the plurality of the connectors with first part of the plurality of the connector connection portions, the second connection being a connection of second part of the plurality of the connectors with second part of the plurality of the connector connection portions, wherein

the electronic unit comprises a body, the body includes at least one semiconductor device and the plurality of connector connection portions, and

the at least one semiconductor device is configured to be electrically connected to the plurality of connectors via the plurality of connector connection portions.

2. The electronic unit attaching structure according to claim 1 , wherein

the electronic unit attaching structure is used at a location where the electronic unit is attached to an electric connection box to which a plurality of electronic components are attached.

3. The electronic unit attaching structure according to claim 1 , wherein

the electronic unit attachment comprises a body that includes the plurality of connectors, and

during the first connection and before the second connection occurs, the electronic unit is configured to press the first part of the plurality of the connectors such that the first part of the plurality of the connectors moves with the electronic unit in a direction relative to the body of the electronic unit attachment.

4. The electronic unit attaching structure according to claim 3 , wherein

the body of the electronic unit is configured to be inserted into the body of the electronic unit attachment in the direction such that the first connection and the second connection occur.
