Electronic control device
An electronic control device includes a circuit board having a plurality of connectors for connection to an external apparatus, and a housing made of a conductive material and adapted to accommodate the circuit board therein. The housing has an opening corresponding to the connectors, and at least one of a first housing component and a second housing component which constitute the housing has a comb-blade-shaped portion for partitioning the opening for each of the connectors.
1 . An electronic control device comprising:
a circuit board having a plurality of connectors for connection to an external apparatus; and
a housing made of a conductive material and adapted to accommodate the circuit board therein, wherein
the housing has an opening corresponding to the connectors,
at least one of a first housing component and a second housing component which constitute the housing has a comb-blade-shaped portion for partitioning the opening for each of the plurality of connectors,
the comb-blade-shaped portion in one of the first housing component and the second housing component has a hook-shaped portion formed to have a hook shape at its tip end,
another of the first housing component and the second housing component has a hook-shape receiving portion corresponding to the hook-shaped portion, and
the first housing component and the second housing component are electrically connected to each other through engagement between the hook-shaped portion and the hook-shaped portion receiving portion.
2 . The electronic control device according to claim 1 , wherein
the comb-blade-shaped portion in one of the first housing component and the second housing component is bent at its tip end, and
the first housing component and the second housing component are in electrical contact with each other through the bent portion.
3 . An electronic control device comprising:
a circuit board having a plurality of connectors for connection to an external apparatus; and
a housing made of a conductive material and adapted to accommodate the circuit board therein, wherein
the housing has an opening corresponding to the connectors,
at least one of a first housing component and a second housing component which constitute the housing has a comb-blade-shaped portion for partitioning the opening for each of the plurality of connectors,
wherein
the comb-blade-shaped portion in one of the first housing component and the second housing component is folded back at its tip end in a direction toward an inside of the housing to have a folded portion,
the folded portion is in contact with a GND pattern on the circuit board by securing through a screw, and
the first housing component and the second housing component are electrically connected to the GND pattern through the screw.
4 . An electronic control device comprising:
a circuit board having a plurality of connectors for connection to an external apparatus; and
a housing made of a conductive material and adapted to accommodate the circuit board therein, wherein
the housing has an opening corresponding to the connectors,
at least one of a first housing component and a second housing component which constitute the housing has a comb-blade-shaped portion for partitioning the opening for each of the plurality of connectors,
wherein
either one of the first housing component and the second housing component has a protruding portion protruding toward another housing component, and
the protruding portion is electrically connected to a GND pattern on the circuit board and to the other housing component with a dielectric material interposed therebetween.
