Electric retractable view device for vehicle

An electric retractable view device for a vehicle, the view device comprising:

• a shaft provided upright on a vehicle body side;
• a rotating body supported by the shaft so as to be rotatable in a direction around an axis of the shaft;
• a motor mounted with a motor shaft facing downward, at a position lateral to the shaft in the rotating body;
• a power transmission mechanism that transmits a driving force of the motor to the shaft to rotate the rotating body in the direction around the axis of the shaft;
• and
• a circuit board including a circuit that supplies electric drive power to the motor, the circuit board being mounted in the rotating body, wherein
• the circuit board is disposed vertically between the shaft and the motor in such a manner that front and back surfaces of the circuit board face the shaft and the motor, respectively, with reference to a posture of the view device as mounted in a vehicle,
• the circuit board includes a motor connection terminal to be connected to a motor terminal of the motor and a connector connection terminal to which a power supply connector of an external electric power supply wiring is to be connected,
• a space provided below the motor connection terminal and defined between the circuit board and the motor, and,
• in a state in which the motor connection terminal is connected to the motor terminal, the connector connection terminal is disposed within the space,
• wherein the power supply connector is configured to be inserted into the space and connected to the connector connection terminal,
• wherein the connector connection terminal is oriented such that a direction of connection of the connector connection terminal to the power supply connector is oriented generally parallel to a plane in which the circuit board is oriented, and
• wherein the power supply connector is configured so as to be capable of being connected to and detached from the connector connection terminal after the motor connection terminal of the circuit board is connected to the motor terminal.
