Description

本発明は、複数の素子を実装した配線基板がケース内に収容されてなる車両用電子装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a vehicular electronic device in which a wiring board on which a plurality of elements are mounted is housed in a case.

ケース内に複数・複数種の素子を実装した配線基板が収容されてなる電子装置においては、一部の種類の素子に関して一定以上の放熱性を必要とするものがあり、それら素子が発して収容空間内に蓄積される熱は外部に排出する必要がある。例えば特許文献1に記載の合成樹脂製ケースは、内部を隔壁で区画して複数の部屋が形成され、それら各部屋からスリットに通じる放熱路が設けられ、スリットを介してから熱を外に排出している。   Some electronic devices in which multiple or multiple types of elements mounted in a case are housed in a case require heat dissipation beyond a certain level for some types of elements. The heat accumulated in the space needs to be discharged to the outside. For example, the synthetic resin case described in Patent Document 1 has a plurality of rooms formed by partitioning the inside with partition walls, and a heat dissipation path that leads from each of the rooms to the slit is provided, and heat is discharged outside through the slit. doing.

実開平4−59887号公報Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 4-59887

しかしながら、スリットを設けるということは、逆に言えば、ケース内部を外気にさらすということであり、この場合、放熱を必要としない無関係な部位も外気の影響を受けることになる。その結果、外気による悪影響を受け易い素子は、その寿命を縮める要因となり、交換周期が早くなり易い。具体的にいえば、外気が含む湿気により生ずるマイグレーションの問題等が存在する。このマイグレーションの問題は、配線基板上の素子・配線の配置密度が密になるほど、素子サイズが小さくなるほど顕在化してくるものであり、今後の技術開発に伴い素子や配線の配置密度や素子サイズがさらに密に、さらに小さくなってくると、この問題はより重要度を増してくる。   However, providing a slit means that the inside of the case is exposed to the outside air, and in this case, an irrelevant portion that does not require heat radiation is also affected by the outside air. As a result, an element that is easily affected by outside air is a factor that shortens its life, and the replacement cycle is likely to be shortened. Specifically, there is a migration problem caused by moisture contained in the outside air. This migration problem becomes more apparent as the arrangement density of elements / wirings on the wiring board becomes denser and the element size becomes smaller. The problem becomes more important as it becomes denser and smaller.

本発明の課題は、放熱性の問題と外気による問題との双方の解決を可能なケースを備える車両用電子装置を提供することにある。   The subject of this invention is providing the electronic device for vehicles provided with the case which can solve both the problem of heat dissipation and the problem by external air.

課題を解決するための手段及び発明の効果Means for Solving the Problems and Effects of the Invention

上記課題を解決するために、本発明の車両用電子装置は、
ケース内に複数の素子を実装した配線基板が収容されるとともに、ケースの内部空間は、該ケースの外壁部に設けられた通気口と連通し、なおかつ配線基板に実装された放熱を必要とする予め定められた放熱必要素子を包含していく形で延出形成される放熱室と、ケースに設けられた全ての通気口及び放熱室に対し非連通で、なおかつ配線基板に実装された外気による悪影響を受け易い予め定められた外気嫌悪素子を内包する隔離室とが、区画壁部により区画されており、
放熱必要素子と外気嫌悪素子とが配線基板の同一の表面に実装され、放熱室と隔離室とが当該表面に沿う方向に並ぶ形で形成されることを特徴とする。
In order to solve the above problems, an electronic device for a vehicle according to the present invention includes:
A wiring board on which a plurality of elements are mounted is accommodated in the case, and the internal space of the case communicates with a vent provided in the outer wall portion of the case and requires heat dissipation mounted on the wiring board. The heat-dissipating chamber is formed to extend so as to include predetermined heat-dissipating elements, and is not in communication with all the vents and heat-dissipating chambers provided in the case, but also by outside air mounted on the wiring board. An isolation room containing a predetermined outdoor air aversion element that is susceptible to adverse effects is partitioned by a partition wall ,
The heat dissipating element and the external air aversion element are mounted on the same surface of the wiring board, and the heat dissipating chamber and the isolation chamber are formed in a line along the surface .

上記本発明の構成によると、ケース内において、通気口を介して外気とつながる放熱室と、外気から分断された隔離室とが分けられており、放熱室に放熱必要素子を、隔離室に外気嫌悪素子(例えば湿気嫌悪素子)が配置されることにより、放熱性の問題と外気による悪影響の問題との双方を解決することができる。また、放熱性の改善は、従来、配線基板上にヒートシンク等の放熱手段・排熱手段を必須とする形で実装されていた電子部品に対し、放熱手段・排熱手段が無くとも放熱性の問題が生じないようにすることも可能である。これにより、配線基板上から放熱手段・排熱手段の配置領域が不要となり、その分、配線基板の小型化が可能となる。   According to the configuration of the present invention, in the case, the heat radiating chamber connected to the outside air through the vent and the isolation chamber separated from the outside air are separated from each other. By disposing an aversion element (for example, a humidity aversion element), it is possible to solve both the problem of heat dissipation and the problem of an adverse effect due to outside air. In addition, the improvement of heat dissipation has been achieved with respect to electronic components that have been mounted on a wiring board in a way that requires heat dissipation / exhaust means, such as a heat sink, even if there is no heat dissipation / exhaust means. It is also possible to prevent problems. Thereby, the arrangement area of the heat dissipating means and the heat exhausting means from the wiring board becomes unnecessary, and the wiring board can be miniaturized correspondingly.

なお、ここでいう予め定められた放熱必要素子とは、レギュレータIC、周知の温度上昇保護手段(温度検出部の検出結果に基づく保護機能)を備えるパワーインテリジェントICや電源IC等のような温度上昇保護機能付素子、照明の制限抵抗素子、電源逆接防止ダイオード、その他、ヒートシンクやファンといった放熱手段・排熱手段と共に用いられる素子である。さらにいえば、これらと同等、もしくはそれ以上に発熱性を有する素子を含むことができる。他方、予め定められた外気嫌悪素子とは、素子サイズが2125以下の素子(例えばチップコンデンサやチップ抵抗等)、互いの間隔が1.5mm以下の2以上のスルーホールからなるスルーホール群等のような湿気嫌悪素子である。さらにいえば、これらと同等、もしくはそれ以上に湿気による悪影響を受け易い素子を含むことができ、さらには湿気に限らず、外気が含む他成分による悪影響を上記湿気嫌悪素子と同等、もしくはそれ以上に受け易い他の素子も含むことができる。   Here, the predetermined heat dissipation element is a regulator IC, a temperature rise such as a power intelligent IC or a power supply IC having a well-known temperature rise protection means (protection function based on the detection result of the temperature detection unit). It is an element used together with a heat-dissipating means / heat-dissipating means such as a heat-resistant element such as a protection function element, a lighting limiting resistance element, a power source reverse connection prevention diode, and a heat sink. Furthermore, an element having a heat generating property equivalent to or higher than these can be included. On the other hand, the predetermined outdoor air aversion element is an element having an element size of 2125 or less (for example, a chip capacitor or a chip resistor), a through hole group including two or more through holes having a distance of 1.5 mm or less, and the like. Such a moisture aversion element. Furthermore, it is possible to include elements that are susceptible to adverse effects due to moisture, equivalent to or higher than these, and further, not only moisture but also adverse effects due to other components contained in the outside air are equal to or more than the above-mentioned moisture aversion elements. Other elements that are susceptible to exposure can also be included.

本発明におけるケースは、底面部と、該底面部の外周側から立ち上がり内部空間を取り囲む外周壁部とを有し、配線基板は、内部空間内に形成される区画壁部上に、該内部空間の一部又は全てを蓋する形で配置することができる。この構成によれば、一方が開放される形で形成される放熱室や隔離室が配線基板により蓋がされるから、別空間への気体移動がより生じ難くできる。例えば、少なくとも全隔離室が配線基板により蓋されることになれば、その内部の素子の外気による悪影響はより一層軽減される。   The case in the present invention includes a bottom surface portion and an outer peripheral wall portion that rises from the outer peripheral side of the bottom surface portion and surrounds the inner space, and the wiring board is formed on the partition wall portion formed in the inner space. It can arrange | position in the form which covers a part or all of. According to this configuration, since the heat radiating chamber and the isolation chamber formed so as to be open on one side are covered with the wiring board, gas movement to another space can be more unlikely to occur. For example, if at least all the isolation chambers are covered with the wiring board, the adverse effects of the elements inside the device due to outside air can be further reduced.

本発明におけるケースは、車両搭載時における上下位置関係が予め決められており、通気口は、ケースの下端側外壁部(上記上下位置関係により定められた下端側の外壁部)に形成された外気流入口と、ケースの上端側外壁部(上記上下位置関係により定められた上端側の外壁部)に形成された外気流出口とを有するものとできる。この構成によると、放熱室内の気体に対し、下方から上方への熱の移動を促すことができ、より効率的に熱を排出することが可能となる。   In the case of the present invention, the vertical position relationship when the vehicle is mounted is determined in advance, and the vent is formed on the lower end side outer wall portion of the case (the outer wall portion on the lower end side determined by the above vertical position relationship). It can have an air flow inlet and an external air flow outlet formed on the upper end side outer wall portion (the upper wall portion on the upper end side defined by the above vertical position relationship) of the case. According to this configuration, the movement of heat from the lower side to the upper side can be promoted with respect to the gas in the heat dissipation chamber, and the heat can be discharged more efficiently.

本発明において、放熱室を取り囲む壁部は、該放熱室内において温度が高くなるに伴い自然上昇する気体の流れが留まることなく、外気流出口に向かう形で形成することができる。例えば熱を吸収した気体が自然上昇によって放熱室内の袋小路に陥るようでは、その部分で熱が溜まってしまうから、放熱室が、袋小路の生じないような放熱路として形成されることで、空間内の放熱性が増す。   In the present invention, the wall portion surrounding the heat radiating chamber can be formed in a form toward the outside air flow outlet without stopping the flow of gas that naturally rises as the temperature rises in the heat radiating chamber. For example, if the gas that has absorbed heat falls into a bag path in the heat dissipation chamber due to natural rise, heat accumulates at that portion, so the heat dissipation chamber is formed as a heat dissipation path that does not generate a bag path, so Increases heat dissipation.

本発明におけるケースは、上記と同様、底面部と、該底面部の外周側から立ち上がって内部空間を取り囲む外周壁部とを有して構成できる。この場合、放熱室を取り囲む壁部には、底面部の一部と区画壁部と外周壁部とを含むことができ、該放熱室を当該外周壁部に沿った形で形成することができる。放熱室を外周壁部に沿って形成することで、長い放熱路を形成できるから、区画壁部を多く形成する必要がなくなり、全体のコストダウンにもつながる。また、通気口はケースの外周壁部に形成できるから、その放熱路途中にも通気口を設けることができる。よって、外周壁部に沿って放熱室が形成されれば、排気効率の良い放熱路を形成できる。   The case in the present invention can be configured to have a bottom surface portion and an outer peripheral wall portion that rises from the outer peripheral side of the bottom surface portion and surrounds the internal space, as described above. In this case, the wall portion surrounding the heat radiating chamber can include a part of the bottom surface portion, the partition wall portion, and the outer peripheral wall portion, and the heat radiating chamber can be formed along the outer peripheral wall portion. . By forming the heat radiating chamber along the outer peripheral wall portion, a long heat radiating path can be formed, so that it is not necessary to form many partition wall portions, which leads to a reduction in the overall cost. Further, since the vent can be formed in the outer peripheral wall portion of the case, the vent can be provided in the middle of the heat dissipation path. Therefore, if a heat radiating chamber is formed along the outer peripheral wall portion, a heat radiating path with good exhaust efficiency can be formed.

本発明においては、放熱室内において温度が高くなるに伴い自然上昇する気体の流れが留まることなく、外気流出口に向かうようにするために、放熱室は、ケースの下端側の外周壁部に形成された外気流入口から、ケースの上端側の外周壁部に形成された外気流出口に向かう放熱路を形成するとともに、下端側の外周壁部から上端側の外周壁部までをつなぐ一方の中間外周壁部を、該放熱室を取り囲む壁部の一部として有するように構成できる。この構成によると、ケースの下端側外壁部から中間外周壁部を経て上端側の外周壁部に至る放熱路をなす比較的大きな放熱室を形成できる。この放熱室は、外周壁部に沿って連続的に続く空間であるから途中箇所に通気口を設けることも自在であり、排気効率の良い放熱路を形成できる。   In the present invention, the heat radiating chamber is formed in the outer peripheral wall portion on the lower end side of the case so that the gas flow that naturally rises as the temperature rises in the heat radiating chamber does not stay, and is directed to the external airflow outlet. A heat dissipation path from the external air flow inlet formed to the external air flow outlet formed in the outer peripheral wall portion on the upper end side of the case, and one intermediate between the outer peripheral wall portion on the lower end side and the outer peripheral wall portion on the upper end side It can comprise so that it may have an outer peripheral wall part as a part of wall part surrounding this thermal radiation chamber. According to this configuration, it is possible to form a relatively large heat radiation chamber that forms a heat radiation path from the lower end side outer wall portion of the case through the intermediate outer peripheral wall portion to the upper end side outer peripheral wall portion. Since this heat radiating chamber is a space that continues continuously along the outer peripheral wall portion, it is possible to provide a vent in the middle of the space, and a heat radiating path with good exhaust efficiency can be formed.

少なくとも下端側の外周壁部と中間外周壁部とが放熱室を取り囲む壁部の一部とされている場合に、当該放熱室において、外気流入口のうち下端側の外周壁部に設けられた開口部に対し上側で対向する区画壁部の少なくとも中間外周壁部側の内壁面を、該中間外壁部に向かって上昇傾斜する傾斜面として形成することができる。この構成によると、下端側外周壁部の外気流入口から流入して自然上昇する気体は、上記傾斜面に案内される形で中間外周壁部が位置する領域へと効率的に促され、外気流出口へと導くことができる。   When at least the outer peripheral wall portion on the lower end side and the intermediate outer peripheral wall portion are part of the wall portion surrounding the heat radiating chamber, the heat radiating chamber is provided on the outer peripheral wall portion on the lower end side in the external air flow inlet. The inner wall surface at least on the intermediate outer peripheral wall portion side of the partition wall portion facing the opening on the upper side can be formed as an inclined surface that rises and inclines toward the intermediate outer wall portion. According to this configuration, the gas that naturally flows in from the external air flow inlet of the lower end side outer peripheral wall portion is efficiently promoted to the region where the intermediate outer peripheral wall portion is located in a form guided by the inclined surface. It can be led to the air flow outlet.

少なくとも上端側の外周壁部と中間外周壁部とが放熱室を取り囲む壁部の一部とされている場合に、ケースは、中間外周壁部と上端側の外周壁部とをつなぐ上側角部を面取り部(上側面取り部)として形成し、その上側面取り部の放熱室側の内壁面を、上端側の外周壁部に向かって上昇傾斜する傾斜面として形成することができる。この構成によると、中間外周壁部付近において自然上昇する気体は、上記傾斜面に案内される形で上端側外周壁部が位置する領域へと効率的に促され、外気流出口へと導くことができる。   When at least the outer peripheral wall portion on the upper end side and the intermediate outer peripheral wall portion are part of the wall portion surrounding the heat radiating chamber, the case has an upper corner portion connecting the intermediate outer peripheral wall portion and the outer peripheral wall portion on the upper end side. Can be formed as a chamfered portion (upper side chamfered portion), and the inner wall surface of the upper side chamfered portion on the heat radiation chamber side can be formed as an inclined surface that rises and slopes toward the outer peripheral wall portion on the upper end side. According to this configuration, the gas that naturally rises in the vicinity of the intermediate outer peripheral wall portion is efficiently urged to the region where the upper end side outer peripheral wall portion is located in the form guided by the inclined surface, and is led to the external airflow outlet. Can do.

また、上記構成におけるケースは、中間外周壁部と下端側の外周壁部とをつなぐ下側角部が下側面取り部として形成され、外周壁部の周方向において、当該下側面取り部の形成長さを、上側面取り部の形成長さよりも短く形成することができる。上側角部は、内部の気体の上昇を促すべく大きな傾斜面として形成されることが有利である。他方、他方の下側角部は、面取り部の大きさが小さいほどケース内の容積が増えるため、より面積の大きい配線基板を配置できるようになり、ひいてはより多くの素子をその配線基板上に配置することが可能となる。   In the case of the above configuration, the lower corner portion connecting the intermediate outer peripheral wall portion and the outer peripheral wall portion on the lower end side is formed as a lower side chamfered portion, and the lower side chamfered portion is formed in the circumferential direction of the outer peripheral wall portion. The length can be formed shorter than the formation length of the upper side chamfer. The upper corner is advantageously formed as a large inclined surface to promote the rise of the internal gas. On the other hand, the lower corner portion of the other has a larger volume in the case as the size of the chamfered portion is smaller. Therefore, a wiring board having a larger area can be arranged, and more elements are arranged on the wiring board. It becomes possible to arrange.

FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view schematically showing a cross section of the vehicle electronic device in which the wiring board of FIG. 6 is disposed in the case of FIG. 5. In the following description, the description will be made mainly with reference to FIGS. 5 to 7, which schematically show FIGS. 1 to 4, but these descriptions also apply to FIGS. 1 to 4. I can say that.

本実施形態の車両用電子装置1は、車両用の表示装置(ここではメータ表示装置)の一部を構成するものであり、図7に示すように、ケース2内に配線基板10が収容される形で構成される。ケース2は、底面部21と、該底面部21の外周側から立ち上がって内部空間30を取り囲む外周壁部22とを有して構成され、それら底面部21と外周壁部22とからなる外壁部20により、ここでは一方向が開放された内部空間30がケース2内に形成されている。   The vehicular electronic device 1 of the present embodiment constitutes a part of a vehicular display device (here, a meter display device), and a wiring board 10 is accommodated in the case 2 as shown in FIG. It is composed in the form. The case 2 includes a bottom surface portion 21 and an outer peripheral wall portion 22 that rises from the outer peripheral side of the bottom surface portion 21 and surrounds the internal space 30, and is an outer wall portion that includes the bottom surface portion 21 and the outer peripheral wall portion 22. 20, an internal space 30 that is open in one direction is formed in the case 2.

配線基板10の一方又は双方の主表面上には、複数・複数種の素子が実装されている。これらの素子の中には、駆動時に発熱して放熱を必要とする素子(単位部品)や、外気に触れることで悪影響を受け易い予め定められた素子(単位部品)、さらにはその他の素子等が含まれる。図6の場合、図示された配線基板10の裏面側に各種素子(符号8,9等)が配置されている。   On one or both main surfaces of the wiring substrate 10, a plurality of / multiple types of elements are mounted. Among these elements, there are elements (unit parts) that generate heat during driving and require heat dissipation, predetermined elements (unit parts) that are easily affected by exposure to the outside air, and other elements. Is included. In the case of FIG. 6, various elements (reference numerals 8, 9, etc.) are arranged on the back side of the illustrated wiring board 10.

本実施形態においては、配線基板10に実装された放熱を必要とする予め定められた素子(放熱必要素子/放熱必要電子部品)8として、レギュレータIC、周知の温度上昇保護手段(温度検出部の検出結果に基づく保護機能)を備えるパワーインテリジェントICや電源IC等のような素子、照明の制限抵抗素子、電源逆接防止ダイオード、その他、ヒートシンク(放熱板)やファンと共に実装される素子を定めている。他方、配線基板10に実装された外気による悪影響を受け易い予め定められた素子9(外気嫌悪素子/外気嫌悪電子部品)として、素子サイズが2125以下の素子(例えばチップコンデンサやチップ抵抗等)、互いの間隔が1.5mm以下の2以上のスルーホールからなるスルーホール群を定めている。なお、ここでいう外気嫌悪素子(湿気嫌悪電子部品)9はいずれも、外気に含まれる湿気による悪影響(マイグレーション)を受け易い素子であり、湿気嫌悪素子ともいうこともできる。   In the present embodiment, as a predetermined element (heat dissipating element / heat dissipating electronic component) 8 that needs to be dissipated mounted on the wiring board 10, a regulator IC, a well-known temperature rise protection means (temperature detecting unit) It defines elements such as power intelligent ICs and power supply ICs that have protection functions based on detection results), lighting limiting resistance elements, power supply reverse connection prevention diodes, and other elements that are mounted with heat sinks (heat sinks) and fans. . On the other hand, as a predetermined element 9 (outside air aversion element / outside air aversion electronic component) that is likely to be adversely affected by outside air mounted on the wiring board 10, an element having an element size of 2125 or less (for example, a chip capacitor or a chip resistor), A through-hole group consisting of two or more through-holes having an interval of 1.5 mm or less is defined. Note that the outside air aversion element (moisture aversion electronic component) 9 here is an element that is susceptible to adverse effects (migration) due to moisture contained in the outside air, and can also be referred to as a moisture aversion element.

このような放熱必要素子8や外気嫌悪素子9が混在する配線基板4を収容するケース2に対し、本実施形態においては、ケース2の外壁部20に通気口3が設けられている。そして、ケース2の内部空間30は、該通気口3と連通し、なおかつ上記放熱必要素子8を内包する放熱室38と、ケース2に設けられた全ての通気口3に対し非連通で、なおかつ上記外気嫌悪素子9を内包する隔離室39とを、区画壁部4により区画・分離している。   In contrast to the case 2 that accommodates the wiring board 4 in which the heat radiating element 8 and the outside air aversion element 9 are mixed, in the present embodiment, the vent 3 is provided in the outer wall portion 20 of the case 2. The internal space 30 of the case 2 communicates with the vent 3 and is not in communication with the heat radiating chamber 38 containing the heat radiating element 8 and all the vents 3 provided in the case 2. The isolation wall 39 containing the outside air aversion element 9 is partitioned and separated by the partition wall 4.

なお、本実施形態の車両用電子装置1は、車両搭載時における上下位置関係が予め決められている。従って、ケース2にも、車両搭載時における上下位置関係が決まっており、ここでは、外周壁部23が、外周壁部24がと決められている。放熱室38内においては、放熱必要素子8から生じる熱によって内部の気体温度が高くなり、これに伴い自然上昇する気体の流れが生ずる。このため、下方に位置する通気口3とそれよりも上方に位置する通気口3とを有する形で形成されており、これによって、下方から外気が流入して、放熱室38内で熱を吸収した気体が上方から排出されるという気体の流れが形成され、放熱路として機能する。通気口3は、外周壁部22にのみ形成されるようにしてもよいが、可能であれば外周壁部22から底面部21にかけて連続する開口として形成されることで開口が広くなり、放熱性を増すことができる。なお、放熱室38内において、熱を吸収した気体が自然上昇によって移動した先で袋小路に陥るようでは、その部分で熱が溜まってしまい、排熱効率が悪くなる。このため、放熱室38は、できる限りそうした袋小路を生じない放熱路をなすように形成されるとよい。
In the vehicle electronic device 1 of the present embodiment, the vertical positional relationship when the vehicle is mounted is determined in advance. Accordingly, the vertical positional relationship when the vehicle is mounted on the case 2 is also determined. Here, the outer peripheral wall portion 23 is determined to be on and the outer peripheral wall portion 24 is determined to be on the lower side. In the heat radiating chamber 38, the internal gas temperature is increased by the heat generated from the heat radiating element 8, and accordingly, a gas flow that naturally rises is generated. For this reason, it forms in the form which has the vent hole 3 located in the downward direction, and the vent hole 3 located in the upper direction, and external air flows in from below and absorbs heat in the heat radiating chamber 38. A gas flow is formed in which the discharged gas is discharged from above and functions as a heat dissipation path. The vent 3 may be formed only on the outer peripheral wall portion 22, but if possible, the opening is widened by forming it as a continuous opening from the outer peripheral wall portion 22 to the bottom surface portion 21. Can be increased. In the heat radiation chamber 38, if the gas that has absorbed heat moves into the bag path where it has moved due to natural rise, heat accumulates at that portion, resulting in poor exhaust heat efficiency. For this reason, the heat radiating chamber 38 is preferably formed so as to form a heat radiating path that does not generate such a narrow path as much as possible.

ところで、配線基板10は、内部空間30に形成された区画壁部4上に、内部空間30の一部又は全てを蓋する形で配置される。ここでは、区画壁部4の先端面(底面部21とは逆側の突出先端面)上に配線基板が載置される。また、ケース2の外周壁部22の先端部(底面部21とは逆側の突出端部)の内周側22Aの面22aが、区画壁部4の先端面4aと高さが一致し、当該先端面4aも配線基板10が載置される載置面となっている。外周壁部22の先端部の外周側は、内周側に載置された配線基板10の横ズレを防止するために、内周面側よりも突出しており、ズレ防止部22Bとして機能している。ここでは、内部空間30の全てが配線基板10により蓋されている。全隔離室39が配線基板10により蓋されているため、内部の素子の外気による悪影響が軽減されている。   By the way, the wiring board 10 is disposed on the partition wall portion 4 formed in the internal space 30 so as to cover a part or all of the internal space 30. Here, the wiring board is placed on the front end surface of the partition wall portion 4 (the protruding front end surface opposite to the bottom surface portion 21). Further, the surface 22a on the inner peripheral side 22A of the distal end portion (projecting end portion opposite to the bottom surface portion 21) of the outer peripheral wall portion 22 of the case 2 has the same height as the distal end surface 4a of the partition wall portion 4, The front end surface 4a is also a mounting surface on which the wiring board 10 is mounted. The outer peripheral side of the distal end portion of the outer peripheral wall portion 22 protrudes from the inner peripheral surface side in order to prevent the lateral displacement of the wiring board 10 placed on the inner peripheral side, and functions as a misalignment preventing portion 22B. Yes. Here, the entire internal space 30 is covered with the wiring board 10. Since all the isolation chambers 39 are covered with the wiring board 10, adverse effects due to the outside air of the internal elements are reduced.

このようにケース2上に配置された配線基板10は、図7に示すように、複数の締結部材6(ここではねじ)によってケース2に対し固定される。配線基板10には、締結部材(ねじ)6を貫通させるための貫通孔19が形成されており、他方、ケース2には、締結部材6を固定するための複数の締結用孔(ここではねじ孔)29が形成されており、その締結用孔29を取り囲む締結用孔外周部28の先端面28aも、区画壁部4の先端面4aと同様、配線基板10が載置される載置面となっている。   The wiring board 10 arranged on the case 2 in this manner is fixed to the case 2 by a plurality of fastening members 6 (here, screws) as shown in FIG. The wiring board 10 is formed with a through hole 19 for allowing the fastening member (screw) 6 to pass therethrough. On the other hand, the case 2 has a plurality of fastening holes (here, screws) for fixing the fastening member 6. Hole) 29 is formed, and the distal end surface 28a of the fastening hole outer peripheral portion 28 surrounding the fastening hole 29 is also placed on the mounting surface on which the wiring board 10 is placed, similarly to the distal end surface 4a of the partition wall portion 4. It has become.

また、配線基板10上には、車両と接続するためのコネクタ7や、工場の検査で使用するための検査ランド6等も形成されており、ケース2に設けられた比較的大型の開口31は、これらコネクタ7の接続や、検査ランド6に触れることができるように設けられた孔である。ここでは四角状の開口31に対応する配線基板10上の位置がコネクタ7の実装部分であり、略楕円形状の開口31に対応する配線基板10上の位置が検査ランド(複数並んだ円形状部分)6の形成部分となる。   On the wiring board 10 are also formed a connector 7 for connection with a vehicle, an inspection land 6 for use in factory inspection, and the like, and a relatively large opening 31 provided in the case 2 is formed. These holes are provided so that the connectors 7 can be connected and the inspection land 6 can be touched. Here, the position on the wiring board 10 corresponding to the rectangular opening 31 is the mounting portion of the connector 7, and the position on the wiring board 10 corresponding to the substantially elliptical opening 31 is the inspection land (a plurality of circular portions arranged side by side). ) 6 forming part.

また、実際のケース2には、図1〜図5に示すように、強度補強のためのリブ22R,4Rが形成されている。外周壁部22から連続的に内周側につながるリブ22Rだけでなく、上記の区画壁部4から連続的につながるリブ4Rも存在する。ただし、リブ22R,4Rはいずれも、少なくとも放熱室38においては区画壁部4よりも高さが低く形成されており、区画壁部4のように、内部空間20を区画・分断するものではない。特に放熱室38内に形成されるリブ22R,4Rは、上記袋小路を形成する要因とならないよう低く形成されるとよい。ここでは、全てのリブ22R,4Rが区画壁部4の突出高さ(底面部21から先端までの高さ)よりも低く形成されている。   Further, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, ribs 22 </ b> R and 4 </ b> R for reinforcing the strength are formed in the actual case 2. In addition to the ribs 22R continuously connected from the outer peripheral wall 22 to the inner peripheral side, there are also ribs 4R continuously connected from the partition wall 4 described above. However, each of the ribs 22R and 4R is formed to have a height lower than that of the partition wall portion 4 at least in the heat radiation chamber 38, and does not partition or divide the internal space 20 unlike the partition wall portion 4. . In particular, the ribs 22R and 4R formed in the heat radiation chamber 38 are preferably formed low so as not to be a factor for forming the above-mentioned bag path. Here, all the ribs 22 </ b> R and 4 </ b> R are formed lower than the protruding height of the partition wall portion 4 (height from the bottom surface portion 21 to the tip).

なお、本実施形態においては、2種の放熱室が設けられている。一方は、外周壁部22に沿って形成された外周放熱室38Aと、隔離室39内に点在する島状放熱室38Bである。ここでは、1つの外周放熱室38Aと、複数の島状放熱室38Bと、1つの隔離室39が設けられている。以下、これらの放熱室38A,38Bと隔離室39について詳細に説明する。   In the present embodiment, two types of heat radiation chambers are provided. One is an outer peripheral heat radiation chamber 38 </ b> A formed along the outer peripheral wall portion 22 and island-shaped heat radiation chambers 38 </ b> B scattered in the isolation chamber 39. Here, one outer peripheral heat radiation chamber 38A, a plurality of island-shaped heat radiation chambers 38B, and one isolation chamber 39 are provided. Hereinafter, the heat radiation chambers 38A and 38B and the isolation chamber 39 will be described in detail.

(外周放熱室38A)
外周放熱室38Aは、外周壁部22に沿って、上記放熱必要素子9を順次包含していく形で延出形成された放熱室であり、下方から上方に向かう比較的長い放熱路として形成される。外周放熱室38は、これを取り囲む壁部として、底面部21の一部と、区画壁部4と、外周壁部22とを含んでおり、ここでは、ケース2の下端側外周壁部24に形成された外気流入口34から、外周壁部25に沿って、ケース2の上端側外周壁部23に形成された外気流出口33に向かう放熱路を形成している。即ち、外周放熱室38を構成する外周壁部22には、下端側外周壁部24と、上端側外周壁部23と、これら23,24をつなぐ中間外周壁部25とが含まれ、これらが当該放熱室38Aを取り囲む壁部の一部となっている。なお、本実施形態における外周放熱室38Aは、上下方向が予め決められているケース2の左右方向のうち一方の中間外周壁部25のみを壁部として含み、他方は、隔離室39を形成する壁部とされている。
(Outer peripheral heat radiation chamber 38A)
The outer peripheral heat radiating chamber 38A is a heat radiating chamber formed so as to sequentially include the above-described heat radiating elements 9 along the outer peripheral wall portion 22, and is formed as a relatively long heat radiating path from below to above. The The outer peripheral heat radiation chamber 38 includes a part of the bottom surface portion 21, the partition wall portion 4, and the outer peripheral wall portion 22 as a wall portion surrounding the outer peripheral heat radiating chamber 38. A heat radiation path is formed from the formed external airflow inlet 34 along the outer peripheral wall portion 25 toward the external airflow outlet 33 formed in the upper end side outer peripheral wall portion 23 of the case 2. That is, the outer peripheral wall portion 22 constituting the outer peripheral heat radiation chamber 38 includes a lower end side outer peripheral wall portion 24, an upper end side outer peripheral wall portion 23, and an intermediate outer peripheral wall portion 25 connecting these 23, 24. It is a part of a wall portion surrounding the heat radiation chamber 38A. Note that the outer peripheral heat radiation chamber 38A in the present embodiment includes only one intermediate outer peripheral wall portion 25 as a wall portion in the left and right direction of the case 2 whose vertical direction is predetermined, and the other forms an isolation chamber 39. It is a wall.

外周放熱室38Aと連通する通気口3は、ケース2の下端側外壁部20(上記上下位置関係により定められた下端側の外壁部20:ここでは下端側外周壁部24)に形成された外気流入口34と、ケース2の上端側外壁部20(上記上下位置関係により定められた上端側の外壁部20:ここでは上端側外周壁部23)に形成された外気流出口33とに形成され、上記のように自然上昇する気体の流れを利用して効率的な熱排出を実現している。また、通気口3は、外周放熱室38Aが形成する放熱路の途中箇所にも設けられている。 The vent hole 3 communicating with the outer peripheral heat radiation chamber 38A is an outer portion formed on the lower end side outer wall portion 20 of the case 2 (the lower end side outer wall portion 20 defined by the above vertical position relationship: here, the lower end side outer peripheral wall portion 24 ). It is formed in the air flow inlet 34 and the external air flow outlet 33 formed in the upper end side outer wall portion 20 of the case 2 (the upper end side outer wall portion 20 : here the upper end side outer peripheral wall portion 23 defined by the vertical position relationship). As described above, efficient heat discharge is realized by utilizing the gas flow that naturally rises. The vent 3 is also provided in the middle of the heat radiation path formed by the outer peripheral heat radiation chamber 38A.

また、外周放熱室38Aにおいて、外気流入口34のうち下端側外周壁部24に設けられた開口部3に対し上側で対向する区画壁部4の少なくとも中間外周壁部25側の内壁面4bを、該中間外壁部20に向かって上昇傾斜する傾斜面として形成されている。これにより、下端側外周壁部24の外気流入口34から流入して自然上昇する気体を、上記傾斜面4bに案内させる形で上方に促し、外気流出口33へと効率的に導くことができる。   Further, in the outer peripheral heat radiation chamber 38A, the inner wall surface 4b on the side of at least the intermediate outer peripheral wall portion 25 of the partition wall portion 4 facing the opening 3 provided on the lower end outer peripheral wall portion 24 of the outer air flow inlet 34 on the upper side. , Formed as an inclined surface that rises and inclines toward the intermediate outer wall portion 20. Thereby, the gas which flows in from the external air flow inlet 34 of the lower end side outer peripheral wall portion 24 and naturally rises is urged upward in the form of being guided to the inclined surface 4 b, and can be efficiently guided to the external air flow outlet 33. .

また、ケース2は、中間外周壁部25と上端側外周壁部23とをつなぐ上側角部26と、中間外周壁部25と下端側外周壁部24とをつなぐ下側角部27とを面取り部(上側面取り部26、下側面取り部27)として形成している。そして、上側面取り部26の放熱室38側の内壁面26aを、上端側外周壁部23に向かって上昇傾斜する傾斜面として形成することにより、中間外周壁部25付近において自然上昇する気体を、上記傾斜面26aに案内させる形で上端側外周壁部23が位置する上方領域へと促し、外気流出口33へと効率的に導くことができる。   Further, the case 2 has a chamfered upper corner portion 26 that connects the intermediate outer peripheral wall portion 25 and the upper end side outer peripheral wall portion 23 and a lower corner portion 27 that connects the intermediate outer peripheral wall portion 25 and the lower end side outer peripheral wall portion 24. Parts (upper side chamfer 26, lower side chamfer 27). Then, by forming the inner wall surface 26a on the heat radiation chamber 38 side of the upper side chamfer 26 as an inclined surface that rises and inclines toward the upper end side outer peripheral wall portion 23, the gas that naturally rises in the vicinity of the intermediate outer peripheral wall portion 25 is generated. Then, it is urged to the upper region where the upper end side outer peripheral wall portion 23 is positioned in the form of being guided by the inclined surface 26 a, and can be efficiently guided to the external air flow outlet 33.

また、外周壁部22の周方向において、上記下側面取り部27の形成長さ(外周壁部27の外壁面27bの長さ)は、上記上側面取り部26の形成長さ(外周壁部26の外壁面26bの長さ)よりも短くなっている。上記したように、上側面取り部26は、内部の気体の上昇を促するべく内壁面26aが傾斜面として形成することが有利であるため、これが比較的長く形成されることで、気体の上昇はよりスムーズなものとなる。これに対し、他方の下側面取り部27は、内壁面を傾斜面としたところで、気体上昇に寄与することは無いから、逆に、面取り部の大きさを小さくすることにより、ケース2内の容積が増えるという利点が得られる。即ち、より面積の大きい配線基板10を配置できるようになり、ひいてはより多くの素子をその配線基板10上に配置することが可能となる。   Further, in the circumferential direction of the outer peripheral wall portion 22, the formation length of the lower side chamfer portion 27 (the length of the outer wall surface 27 b of the outer peripheral wall portion 27) is equal to the formation length of the upper side chamfer portion 26 (outer peripheral wall portion). 26 is shorter than the length of the outer wall surface 26b of 26. As described above, the upper side chamfer 26 is advantageous in that the inner wall surface 26a is formed as an inclined surface in order to promote the rise of the internal gas. Will be smoother. On the other hand, the other lower side chamfer 27 does not contribute to gas rise when the inner wall surface is an inclined surface. Conversely, by reducing the size of the chamfer, The advantage of increased volume is obtained. That is, the wiring board 10 having a larger area can be arranged, and as a result, more elements can be arranged on the wiring board 10.

(島状放熱室38B)
島状放熱室38Bは、隔離室39に取り囲まれた空間であり、区画壁部4と底面部21とにより区画された空間である。局所的な発熱必要素子8の密集領域に対し設けられ、通気口3は、当該島状放熱室38B内の底面部21に貫通形成される。島状放熱室38B内は比較的小さいため、リブ22R,4Rは形成されず、その外部の隔離室39内にて、島状放熱室38Bを取り囲む区画壁部4からつながる形で形成されている。
(Island heat radiation chamber 38B)
The island-shaped heat radiation chamber 38 </ b> B is a space surrounded by the isolation chamber 39, and is a space partitioned by the partition wall portion 4 and the bottom surface portion 21. Provided in the dense region of the local heat generating elements 8, the vent 3 is formed through the bottom surface 21 in the island-shaped heat radiation chamber 38B. Since the inside of the island-shaped heat radiation chamber 38B is relatively small, the ribs 22R and 4R are not formed, and are formed in a form connected to the partition wall portion 4 surrounding the island-shaped heat radiation chamber 38B in the outer isolation chamber 39. .

なお、外周放熱室38Aにおける上記した特徴部は、可能であれば島状放熱室38Bにも適用するとよい。ただし、島状放熱室38Bは、局所的な発熱必要素子8の密集領域に対し設けられるため形状的な制限も多く、かならずしも外周放熱室38Aの特徴部を設ける必要は無い。   Note that the above-described characteristic portion in the outer peripheral heat radiation chamber 38A may be applied to the island-shaped heat radiation chamber 38B if possible. However, since the island-shaped heat radiation chamber 38B is provided in the dense region of the local heat generating elements 8, there are many shape restrictions, and it is not always necessary to provide the feature of the outer peripheral heat radiation chamber 38A.

(隔離室39)
隔離室39は、放熱室38の残余領域として設けられ、本実施形態では1つの空間として設けられている。また、外周放熱室38Aが外周壁部22の一方の中間外周壁部25側に形成されており、逆側の中間外周壁部25に隣接する空間は、隔離室39の一部となっている。通気口3は一切設けられていない。

Furthermore, a space extending along the lower end side outer peripheral wall portion 24 or a space extending along the intermediate outer peripheral wall portion 25 or a space extending along the upper end side outer peripheral wall portion 23 may be used. It may be a formed space. However, if there is at least a space adjacent to the intermediate outer peripheral wall portion 25, it is easy to form a gas flow such as intake, rise, and exhaust by forming the vent hole 3 in the intermediate outer peripheral wall portion 25.

なお、上記実施形態は、放熱室38の外気嫌悪素子9が内包されることを否定するものではなく、隔離室39に放熱必要素子8が内包されることを否定するものではない。配線基板10上における上記素子8,9やそれら以外の素子は基本的には回路設計を優先して配置され、区画壁部4は、設計された配線基板10上の素子配置を考慮して、放熱室38ができるだけ多くの素子8を取り込んだ放熱路となるように形成される。   In addition, the said embodiment does not deny that the external air disgusting element 9 of the thermal radiation chamber 38 is included, and does not deny that the thermal radiation required element 8 is included in the isolation chamber 39. The elements 8 and 9 on the wiring board 10 and other elements are basically arranged with priority given to circuit design, and the partition wall 4 is designed in consideration of the element arrangement on the wiring board 10 designed.
