Description

電子制御装置Electronic control unit
 本発明は電子制御装置に関し、特に金属部材と回路基板との接続構造に関する。 The present invention relates to an electronic control device, and more particularly to a connection structure between a metal member and a circuit board.
 従来、車両用計器など電子制御装置は、軽量化や電気的な絶縁などのために、合成樹脂材からなるモールドケースを用いる場合がある。このようなモールドケースを用いた際に、電子機器内部に金属部材を使用する必要性が生じた場合、金属部材が電気的に浮いた状態であると不要輻射や静電気により電子機器が誤作動を起こすような問題が考えられ好ましくない。そこで、このような問題を解決するために、電気的に浮いた金属部材を回路基板のグランドの信号に接続する方法をとっている。 Conventionally, an electronic control device such as a vehicle instrument may use a molded case made of a synthetic resin material for weight reduction or electrical insulation. When it is necessary to use a metal member inside the electronic device when using such a mold case, the electronic device may malfunction due to unnecessary radiation or static electricity if the metal member is in an electrically floating state. Problems that may occur are not preferable. Therefore, in order to solve such a problem, a method of connecting an electrically floating metal member to a signal on the ground of the circuit board is employed.
 例えば、特許文献1に開示されるものがあり、回路基板を導電性の金属フレーム(金属部材)に取付ける取付けねじ用の穴の周囲にソルダレジスト層によって互に分離して形成された複数個の小径の銅箔パターンランドを備え、上記回路基板の取付けねじ用の穴に取付けねじを装着することによって回路基板を金属フレームに取付けるとともに、上記銅箔パターンランドを介して回路基板を金属フレームに設置するように構成されるものが開示されている。 For example, there is one disclosed in Patent Document 1, and a plurality of pieces formed by being separated from each other by a solder resist layer around a hole for a mounting screw for attaching a circuit board to a conductive metal frame (metal member). A small-diameter copper foil pattern land is provided, and the circuit board is mounted on the metal frame by mounting the mounting screw in the hole for the circuit board mounting screw, and the circuit board is installed on the metal frame via the copper foil pattern land. What is configured to be disclosed is disclosed.

 しかしながら、これら回路基板を備えた電子制御装置は、該金属フレームに取付ける取付けねじ用の穴の周囲、例えば、取付けねじヘッドの外周に対応する位置に複数個の小径の銅箔パターンランドを形成し、この銅箔パターンランドに半田を設け、回路基板と金属フレームとを該取付けねじで締め付けた場合、回路基板と金属フレームとの電気的な接続を行うことができるものの、取付けねじの締め付けトルクによって、小径の銅箔パターンランド上の半田にクラックが生じることがあり、その結果、銅箔パターンランドと金属フレームの電気的接続が維持できなくなってしまう虞があった。 However, the electronic control device equipped with these circuit boards forms a plurality of small-diameter copper foil pattern lands around a hole for a mounting screw attached to the metal frame, for example, at a position corresponding to the outer periphery of the mounting screw head. When solder is provided on the copper foil pattern land and the circuit board and the metal frame are tightened with the mounting screws, the circuit board and the metal frame can be electrically connected, but depending on the tightening torque of the mounting screws. Cracks may occur in the solder on the small-diameter copper foil pattern land, and as a result, the electrical connection between the copper foil pattern land and the metal frame may not be maintained.

 以下、本発明の実施の形態を図に従って説明する。なお、以下の説明は、本発明を車両用計器に適用した実施例を示すものである。 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In addition, the following description shows the Example which applied this invention to the meter for vehicles.
 図1は、車両用計器の表示例を示す図であり、図2は、その断面を示す。 FIG. 1 is a view showing a display example of a vehicle instrument, and FIG. 2 shows a cross section thereof.
 車両用計器は、指針表示部1と、画像表示部2と、方向指示器の状態や、前照灯のハイビーム、変速機のギアポジション、各種警告灯の表示など各種インジケータ3とを備えた複合計器であり、図2の断面図に示すように、ハウジング4内に、回路基板5と、この回路基板5に制御手段6や、バックライト7、外部接続用コネクタ8などが実装されている。 The vehicle instrument is a composite equipped with a pointer display unit 1, an image display unit 2, and various indicators 3 such as a direction indicator, a high beam of a headlamp, a gear position of a transmission, and various warning lights. As shown in the sectional view of FIG. 2, a circuit board 5 and a control means 6, a backlight 7, an external connection connector 8, and the like are mounted on the circuit board 5 in the housing 4.
 指針表示部1は、回路基板5に実装されたムーブメント(モータ)11を駆動源にして回動する指針12と、この指針12の指示対象となる数値や目盛りからなる指標部13が印刷された表示板14とからなる。なお、指針表示部1は、バックライト7によって指標部13や指針12が照明可能に設けられる。この場合、指針表示部1は、外部通信用コネクタ8を介して入力される車速情報と、制御手段6による演算処理や駆動命令によって、ムーブメント11が作動し、指針12による指標部13の指示位置によって、車両の走行速度値を表示することができる。 The pointer display unit 1 is printed with a pointer 12 that rotates using a movement (motor) 11 mounted on the circuit board 5 as a drive source, and an indicator unit 13 that includes numerical values and scales to be indicated by the pointer 12. It consists of a display board 14. The pointer display unit 1 is provided so that the indicator unit 13 and the pointer 12 can be illuminated by the backlight 7. In this case, the pointer display unit 1 operates the movement 11 according to the vehicle speed information input via the external communication connector 8 and the arithmetic processing or drive command by the control means 6, and the indicated position of the indicator unit 13 by the pointer 12. Thus, the traveling speed value of the vehicle can be displayed.
 画像表示部2は、制御手段6による駆動制御によって、所望の計測値や警報などの車両情報を画像にて表示する表示パネル21を設けている。この場合、表示パネル21によって積算走行距離や燃費などの車両情報を表示する。なお、表示パネル21は、画面切換え可能に構成され、車両情報の他にも、時刻や温度情報なども表示出力できる。 The image display unit 2 is provided with a display panel 21 that displays vehicle information such as desired measurement values and warnings as images by drive control by the control means 6. In this case, vehicle information such as the accumulated travel distance and fuel consumption is displayed on the display panel 21.

 また、表示パネル21は、図示しない可撓性配線を介して回路基板5の制御手段6等に接続される。前記可撓性配線は、画像信号を表示パネル21へ送信するための信号伝送線路としての役割を担う。なお、表示パネル21は、液晶表示素子を用いたものを適用でき、バックライト用の光源とともに、導電性の金属フレーム(金属部材)22を用いて保持される。また、表示パネル21は、表示板14と回路基板5との間に位置して、表示板14の切り欠き開口部から表示領域が臨めるようにして設けられ、この場合、合成樹脂からなるスペーサ23によって回路基板5との所定距離をおいて保持される。 The display panel 21 is connected to the control means 6 of the circuit board 5 through a flexible wiring (not shown). The flexible wiring plays a role as a signal transmission line for transmitting an image signal to the display panel 21. The display panel 21 may be one using a liquid crystal display element, and is held using a conductive metal frame (metal member) 22 together with a light source for backlight.

 外部接続用コネクタ8は、ハウジング4の裏側ケース42の穴を介して制御手段6と車体側の電子ユニットとを接続するハーネス81と接続する接続部材である。これら外部接続用コネクタ8やハーネス81を介して、車両用計器の電源接続や車両情報の受信(有線通信)がなされる。また、外部接続用コネクタ8は、接地信号線用の端子を含み、各電子部品だけでなく、金属フレーム22や第1,第2銅箔パターンランドを車両用計器外に接地接続することができる。 The external connection connector 8 is a connection member that connects to the harness 81 that connects the control means 6 and the electronic unit on the vehicle body side through the hole in the back side case 42 of the housing 4. Via the external connection connector 8 and the harness 81, the power supply of the vehicle meter is connected and the vehicle information is received (wired communication). The external connection connector 8 includes a ground signal line terminal, and can connect not only each electronic component but also the metal frame 22 and the first and second copper foil pattern lands to the outside of the vehicle instrument. .
 以上の車両用計器によれば、車両情報を表示制御するための制御手段6を実装する回路基板5と、表示パネル21の保持部材としてだけでなく接地接続可能な金属フレーム22とを設けることができる。 According to the above vehicle instrument, the circuit board 5 on which the control means 6 for displaying and controlling the vehicle information is mounted, and the metal frame 22 that can be grounded as well as the holding member of the display panel 21 is provided. it can.
 かかる車両用計器は、導電性の金属フレーム22と、この金属フレーム22を実装するとともに、金属フレーム22と電気的に接続するための配線パターンを設けた回路基板5と、金属フレーム22と前記回路基板とを接続する取付けねじ24と、を備えた電子制御装置であって、回路基板5には、取付けねじ24の装着用の孔部55と、金属フレーム22との対向面で、かつ孔部55周囲において取付けねじ24の頭部24Aよりも径小な位置に形成される複数の第1の銅箔パターンランド51と、金属フレーム22との対向面で、かつ孔部55周囲において頭部24Aよりも径大な位置に形成される複数の第2の銅箔パターンランド52と、を設けて、金属フレーム22と回路基板5との電気的な接続が、第1,第2の銅箔パターンランド51,52及びこの銅箔パターンランド51,52に設けられる半田53,54を介して行われる。 The vehicle instrument includes a conductive metal frame 22, a circuit board 5 on which the metal frame 22 is mounted and a wiring pattern for electrically connecting to the metal frame 22, and the metal frame 22 and the circuit. An electronic control device comprising a mounting screw for connecting to a board, wherein the circuit board 5 has a hole 55 for mounting the mounting screw 24 and a surface facing the metal frame 22 and a hole. The head 24 </ b> A is opposed to the plurality of first copper foil pattern lands 51 and the metal frame 22 at a position smaller in diameter than the head 24 </ b> A of the mounting screw 24 around the hole 55 and around the hole 55. A plurality of second copper foil pattern lands 52 formed at positions larger in diameter than the first and second copper foil patterns. La Takes place via a de 51, 52 and the solder 53, 54 provided on the copper foil pattern lands 51, 52.
 従って、金属フレーム22と回路基板5とが取付けねじ24によって接続される際に、スペーサ23の接触面23Aと取付けねじ24の頭部24Aとによって挟み込まれて第1の銅箔パターンランド51上の半田53が、変形しつつ接合される。また、回路基板5と金属フレーム22の脚部25とによって挟み込まれる第2の銅箔パターンランド52の半田54は、半田53に比べて大きな圧力が加わらないため、半田53よりも変形しないまま金属フレーム22と回路基板5との電気的接続をなすことができる。 Therefore, when the metal frame 22 and the circuit board 5 are connected by the mounting screw 24, the metal frame 22 and the circuit board 5 are sandwiched between the contact surface 23A of the spacer 23 and the head portion 24A of the mounting screw 24, and thus on the first copper foil pattern land 51. The solder 53 is joined while being deformed. Further, since the solder 54 of the second copper foil pattern land 52 sandwiched between the circuit board 5 and the leg portion 25 of the metal frame 22 is not applied with a larger pressure than the solder 53, the solder 54 is not deformed more than the solder 53. Electrical connection between the frame 22 and the circuit board 5 can be made.
 そのため、半田53,54は、変形量の異なる少なくとも二種の状態となるため、振動をともなう環境にて長時間使用した場合にあっても、電気的接続状態を保持し、信頼性の高い接地構造になる。特に、取付けねじ24から遠い位置に設けられ、取付けねじ24による締め付けトルクの影響を受けにくい第2の銅箔パターンランド52の半田54は、加わるストレスが比較的小さいため、電気的接続の信頼性維持に期待でき有効である。 Therefore, since the solders 53 and 54 are in at least two states having different deformation amounts, the electrical connection state is maintained even when used for a long time in an environment with vibration, and the grounding is highly reliable. Become a structure. In particular, the solder 54 of the second copper foil pattern land 52 that is provided at a position far from the mounting screw 24 and is not easily affected by the tightening torque by the mounting screw 24 is applied with a relatively small stress. Expected to be effective and effective.
 また、第1の銅箔パターンランド51は、孔部55から同じ距離に複数形成され、同様に第2の銅箔パターンランド52は、孔部55から同じ距離に複数形成されることによって、取付けねじ24による締め付けによって加わる半田53,54への圧力を均等に分散して、大きな変形が起こらないようにできる。また、接触面積を大きく確保できるため導電性を高めることができる。 In addition, a plurality of first copper foil pattern lands 51 are formed at the same distance from the hole 55, and similarly, a plurality of second copper foil pattern lands 52 are formed at the same distance from the hole 55, thereby being attached. The pressure applied to the solders 53 and 54 applied by tightening with the screws 24 can be evenly distributed so that no significant deformation occurs. Moreover, since a large contact area can be ensured, conductivity can be increased.
