Electronic control unit
The present invention relates to an electronic control unit. The present invention provides an electronic control unit including: a housing which has an opening opened at one side of the housing; a printed circuit board which is accommodated in the housing and has electronic control elements mounted on the printed circuit board in order to perform a control operation; and a connector which is connected with the printed circuit board and coupled to the opening of the housing, in which a pressure correcting means, which connects an interior of the housing and an exterior of the housing and corrects pressure in the housing, is provided in the connector.
1. An electronic control unit comprising:
a housing which has an opening opened at one side of the housing;
a printed circuit board which is accommodated in the housing and has electronic control elements mounted on the printed circuit board in order to perform a control operation; and
a connector which is connected with the printed circuit board and coupled to the opening of the housing,
wherein a pressure correcting means, which connects an interior of the housing and an exterior of the housing and corrects pressure in the housing, is provided in the connector,
wherein the pressure connecting means includes a venting hole and a venting channel,
wherein the venting hole is exposed to the outside of the housing and provided in the connector, and
wherein the venting channel connects the venting hole with the interior of the housing and is formed along a side surface of the connector.
2. The electronic control unit of claim 1 , wherein the venting hole is formed in a form of any one of a hole, a slit, and a slot in a connector front end portion exposed to the outside in a state in which the connector is coupled to the housing.
3. The electronic control unit of claim 1 , wherein the venting hole and the venting channel are formed by attaching a member having the venting hole and the venting channel to a side surface of the connector.
4. The electronic control unit of claim 1 , wherein an air-permeable separating membrane is provided in the venting hole or on a surface of the connector in which the venting hole is formed.
5. The electronic control unit of claim 1 , wherein fixing guides, which protrude from a side surface of the connector so as to surround the venting hole, are additionally provided on the side surface of the connector.
6. The electronic control unit of claim 5 , wherein a venting hole protecting plate, which has a through hole that is connected with the venting hole, is coupled to the connector by being guided by the fixing guides.
7. The electronic control unit of claim 6 , wherein the fixing guides include a first fixing guide and a second fixing guide which are spaced apart from each other at an interval to form a catching protrusion accommodating portion, and the venting hole protecting plate includes a catching protrusion coupled to the catching protrusion accommodating portion.
8. The electronic control unit of claim 1 , wherein an air-permeable separating membrane is provided on a surface of the connector in which the venting hole is formed, and a venting hole protecting plate, which has a through hole that is connected with the venting hole, is attached to an outer portion of the separating membrane.
9. The electronic control unit of claim 8 , wherein fixing guides, which protrude from a side surface of the connector so as to surround the venting hole, are provided, a portion surrounded by the fixing guides is formed as a welding surface, and the venting hole protecting plate is attached to the welding surface with the separating membrane interposed therebetween.
