- FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of a main part showing a state in which the illustrated in-vehicle control device is attached to a structure of an automobile
- 29-31 correspond to FIGS. 26-28 of the eighth embodiment. 29 to 31, portions similar or corresponding to those in the already described embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals as in the previous drawings, and description thereof is omitted.
- This embodiment differs from the second embodiment in that the outer peripheral portion of the cylindrical portion 14 forming the female thread 16 also serves as a guide hole GH provided in the automobile structure (in this example, the automobile-side bracket BKT). This is the point.
- this embodiment has the same configuration as, for example, the second embodiment.
- the configuration of this embodiment can also be applied to embodiments other than the second embodiment (excluding the embodiment in which the cylindrical portion 14 constitutes the male screw 11).
- the female thread 16 similar to that of the second embodiment is applied, the female thread 16 (configuration using the insert nut 17) similar to that of the third embodiment may be applied.
- FIG. 32 shows a half-finished cruciform cylindrical portion 24 formed by press-molding the base 10 .
- the cylindrical portion 24 has a U-shaped cross section that is recessed on one side of the main body portion and protrudes to the other side, and is a non-penetrating bottomed portion.
- FIG. 33 shows an example in which a threaded portion 15 is formed on the cross-shaped outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion 24 by die processing.
- circuit board 30 is fixed using a cross-shaped cylindrical portion 24 having a pedestal 18 .
- the board 30 is fixed by sandwiching the circuit board 30 between the pedestal 18 and the nut 6 and tightening the nut 6 to the threaded portion 15 of the cylindrical portion 24 .
- the shape of the cylindrical portion provided on the base is not limited to a cylindrical shape or a cross shape, and other shapes can be adopted as long as the shape can be formed by press molding and the threaded portion can be formed by die processing or tap processing. .
