例えば、まず、コネクタ25と中継部品60とをユニットケース27に組み付ける。その後、基板21をユニットケース27に組み付ける。これによって、駆動制御装置20が得られる。次に、駆動制御装置20とモータ10とを組み付ける。このとき、モータ端子18は、中継端子61を介して基板21と接続される。
次に、電動機制御装置1における端子接続構造について、図3~図6を参照して説明する。この端子接続構造においては、巻線13から引き出されたモータ端子18と、中継端子61とが接続されている。
図3~図5においては、基板21、モータ端子18、中継端子61、及びソケット62が設けられた部分が示されており、基板21及びユニットケース27の全体の形状が簡略化されている。
リブ62bの形状は、図6に示す形状に限定されない。例えば、リブ62bは、円筒部62aの表面から突出する複数のドット(点状部)であってもよい。リブ62bは、円筒部62aの表面から突出するとともに、円筒部62aと同心円状のリング(環状部)であってもよい。リブ62bは、対向面62fから円筒部62aが突出する方向に交差する方向に沿って延びてもよい。リブ62bは、円筒部62aの表面に螺旋状に形成されてもよい。つまり、リブ62bは、円筒部62aの表面に形成された雄ネジ形状を有してもよい。
ソケット圧入孔27gにソケット62を圧入した際に円筒部62a及びリブ62bが弾性変形することが可能であれば、リブ62bの数、リブ62bの配置、及びリブ62bの形状は限定されない。
変形例として、中継部品60とソケット着座面27hとの間に接着剤を塗布し、ユニットケース27に中継部品60を固定してもよい。これにより、上述した圧入による中継部品60とユニットケース27との固定だけでなく、接着剤の接着力によって中継部品60とユニットケース27とを固定することが可能となる。なお、接着剤の種類としては、公知の材料が用いられる。
例えば、図5に示すように、中継端子61の平面部61aは、軸方向に対して垂直に配置している。平面部61aは、モータ端子18と中継端子61との接続のために、2箇所の貫通孔61bを有する。
以下の説明では、実施の形態1と同一部材には同一符号を付して、その説明は省略または簡略化する。
実施の形態2に係る電動機制御装置の端子接続構造について、図7を参照して説明する。
具体的に、電動機制御装置2は、パワー基板22と制御基板23とを備える。パワー基板22は、モータ10に電力を供給するインバータ回路を有する。制御基板23は、モータ10の駆動を制御する制御回路を有する。インバータ回路及び制御回路の各々としては、公知の回路構成が用いられる。
ユニットケース28は、実施の形態1で説明したユニットケース27に相当する。
実施の形態3に係る電動機制御装置の端子接続構造について、図8を参照して説明する。
中継部品65は、中継端子66とソケット67とで構成される。中継端子66は、実施の形態1で説明した中継端子61に相当する。ソケット67は、実施の形態1で説明したソケット62に相当する。モータ端子18と中継端子66との接続構造は、実施の形態1と同様である。基板24と中継端子66とを接続する中継接続部は、モータ端子18よりも径方向内側に位置する。図3~図6に示す中継接続部61cと同様に、中継端子66は、基板24へ接続される。
実施の形態4に係る電動機制御装置の端子接続構造について、図9を参照して説明する。
本実施の形態4の変形例として、コネクタ39のコネクタ接続部39bをユニットケース30から延在させて、コネクタ接続部39bを基板24に接続してもよい。
実施の形態5に係る電動機制御装置の端子接続構造について、図10を参照して説明する。図10は、基板21、モータ端子18、中継端子61、ソケット62が設けられた部分を示している。図10においては、基板21の形状、ユニットケース27の形状を簡略化している。
図10に示すように、まず、ソケット圧入孔27gとソケット着座面27hに接着剤63を塗布する。ユニットケース27に対して中継部品60を軸方向へ圧入する。ユニットケース27に対する中継部品60の圧入によって固定されるだけでなく、接着剤63によって、中継部品60は、ユニットケース27に固定される。
実施の形態6に係る電動機制御装置の端子接続構造について、図11及び図12を参照して説明する。以下、実施の形態1と実施の形態6との相違点を主に説明する。
電動機制御装置6において、ユニットケース31は、実施の形態1で説明したユニットケース27に部分的に対応するが、ユニットケース31は、ユニットケース27とは異なる構成を有する。
一体型中継部品70は、例えば、ネジ53によってユニットケース31に固定されている。
