Electrical junction box
This invention provides an electrical junction box that can restrain a temperature from increasing in a casing. An electrical junction box comprises a casing made of a synthetic resin material, a circuit board contained in the casing, semiconductor relay mounted on the circuit board, a bus bar. The bus bar is insert-molded in the casing. The bus bar includes an embedment section embedded in the casing, and a connecting section that is not embedded in the casing and thermally connected to the semiconductor relay.
1. An electrical junction box comprising:
a casing made of a synthetic resin material;
a circuit board contained in said casing;
a heat generation part mounted on said circuit board;
a heat radiation plate insert-molded in said casing, the heat radiation plate including:
an embedment section embedded in said casing by insert-molding; and
a connecting section that is not embedded in said casing, wherein the connecting section is thermally connected to said heat generation part; and
a bus bar that is electrically connected to said circuit board and is contained in said casing,
wherein:
said bus bar and said heat radiation plate are formed by a single plate,
said bus bar is disposed on said circuit board in a substantially vertical direction, and
a plurality of terminal metals are juxtaposed on said circuit board, and said bus bar is disposed in a clearance between said terminal metals.
2. An electrical junction box comprising:
a casing made of a synthetic resin material;
a circuit board contained in said casing;
a heat generation part mounted on said circuit board; and
a heat radiation plate insert-molded in said casing, the heat radiation plate including:
an embedment section embedded in said casing by insert-molding; and
a connecting section that is not embedded in said casing, wherein the connecting section is thermally connected to said heat generation part,
wherein said embedment section of said heat radiation plate is disposed in said casing at a position opposed to said heat generation part, and
wherein a plurality of connector housings are partitioned by a plurality of bulkheads to be juxtaposed in said casing, each connector housing is adapted to be coupled to a mating connector, and a bus bar is insert-molded in one of said bulkheads.
3. An electrical junction box comprising:
a casing made of a synthetic resin material;
a circuit board contained in said casing;
a heat generation part mounted on said circuit board; and
a heat radiation plate insert-molded in said casing, the heat radiation plate including:
an embedment section embedded in said casing by insert-molding; and
a connecting section that is not embedded in said casing, wherein the connecting section is thermally connected to said heat generation part,
wherein said casing is provided on an inner surface of a bottom wall with a slope, said slope is provided in the lowest part with a drainage port so that water in said casing is drained outside, and said casing is formed in a liquid-tight manner at an area different from said drainage port.
