Actuator
An actuator includes a lower housing member, an upper housing member ached to the lower one, and a cover member. Inside the lower housing member are arranged a driving source, a power-transmitting mechanism configured for transmitting a driving powder of the driving source to a output shaft to which a member to be driven is to be attached, a connector having terminals projected therefrom. A partition plate is provided in the upper housing member and has an opening for exposing said terminals of the connector and adapted to define a partition chamber opened to outside. A circuit board is placed on the partition plate, and has connection terminals connected to the terminals of the connector with a solder on the partition plate. A control circuit is assembled into the circuit board for the driving source. The cover member covers the circuit board.
1. An actuator, comprising:
a lower housing member;
an upper housing member attached to said lower housing member;
a driving source arranged in the lower housing member;
a power-transmission mechanism arranged in the lower housing member, and configured for transmitting a driving power of said driving source to an output shaft to which a member to be driven is attached;
a connector arranged in the lower housing member, and having terminals projecting therefrom;
a partition chamber provided in said upper housing member, defined by a partition plate and a plurality of partition walls rising from said partition plate, said partition chamber opened to an outside of said upper housing member and separated from said lower housing member;
a circuit board arranged on said partition plate, and having a control circuit for said driving source; and
a cover member covering said circuit board arranged on said partition plate, and closing said partition chamber, wherein
said partition plate has an opening for exposing said terminals of the connector into said partition chamber, said circuit board has connection terminals connected to said terminals of the connector, which are exposed through said opening of said partition plate, with a solder in said partition chamber.
2. The actuator set forth in claim 1 , wherein said connector comprises a driving source connector and a power input connector which have respective terminals connected to said connection terminals of the circuit board with the solder.
3. The actuator set forth in claim 1 , which further comprises a potentiobalance resistor having terminals exposed into said partition chamber through said opening formed in the partition plate and connected to said connection terminals of the circuit board.
4. The actuator set forth in claim 2 , which further comprises a potentiobalance resistor having terminals exposed into said partition chamber through said opening formed in the partition plate and connected to said connection terminals of the circuit board.
