Abstract

Disclosed herein is a sealing cover. The sealing cover includes a cap, a grommet configured to extend from the cap, and a terminal inserted into the grommet, wherein the grommet includes a groove formed to be recessed and having the terminal inserted therein. Advantageous effects are provided such that a process for assembly is simplified and flexibility of terminals is secured.

Claims (32)

1. A sealing cover comprising:

a cap;

a grommet configured to extend from the cap; and

a terminal inserted into the grommet,

wherein the terminal includes a first connecting end disposed at one side of the terminal and a second connecting end disposed at the other side of the terminal with the cap interposed therebetween, and

wherein the grommet includes coupling flanges respectively formed at positions of the first connecting end and the second connecting end.

2. The sealing cover of claim 1 , wherein the terminal includes a body disposed along a circumference of the cap and configured to connect the first connecting end and the second connecting end.

3. The sealing cover of claim 2 , wherein the grommet includes a terminal connecting hole formed at a position of the first connecting end.

4. An actuator comprising:

a housing;

a motor disposed in the housing; and

a sealing cover including a cap configured to cover the housing, a grommet configured to extend from the cap, and a terminal inserted into the grommet and electrically connected to the motor,

wherein the terminal includes a first connecting end disposed at one side of the terminal and a second connecting end disposed at the other side with the cap interposed therebetween, and

wherein the grommet includes coupling flanges respectively formed at positions of the first connecting end and the second connecting end.

5. The actuator of claim 4 , wherein:

the motor includes a motor and a screw connected to the motor; and

the housing includes a motor accommodation portion configured to accommodate the motor and a screw accommodation portion configured to communicate with the motor accommodation portion and accommodate the screw.

6. The actuator of claim 5 , wherein:

the screw accommodation portion includes an inlet connected to the motor accommodation portion and an outlet open to an outside; and

the cap is coupled to the outlet.

7. The actuator of claim 4 , wherein the motor includes:

a stator disposed inside the motor accommodation portion and having a coil wound therearound;

a rotor disposed at an inner side of the stator;

a shaft coupled to the rotor; and

a busbar connected to the coil.

8. The actuator of claim 7 , wherein the motor includes a connecting terminal configured to connect the first connecting end and the busbar.

9. The actuator of claim 4 , wherein the terminal includes a body disposed along a circumference of the cap and configured to connect the first connecting end and the second connecting end.

10. The actuator of claim 4 , wherein the grommet includes a terminal connecting hole formed at a position of the first connecting end.

11. The actuator of claim 8 , wherein the housing includes a connecting terminal accommodation portion configured to accommodate the connecting terminal.

12. The actuator of claim 5 , wherein the motor includes a worm wheel engaged with the screw.

13. The actuator of claim 5 , wherein the housing includes a worm wheel accommodation portion configured to communicate with the screw accommodation portion.

14. The actuator of claim 13 , wherein the second connecting end is disposed above the worm wheel accommodation portion.
