Abstract

An electronic control device includes first extended terminals extended from a multiple of terminals of opposing connectors respectively and second extended terminals extended from opposing control boards respectively. A hole is formed between the opposing connectors in a connector case, each of the first extended terminals and each of the second extended terminals oppose and approach each other toward the hole, in addition to which first extended terminals and second extended terminals are formed heading toward an exterior of the connector case from the hole, and the first extended terminal and the first extended terminal come into contact with differing side faces of the second extended terminal and the second extended terminal.

Dependent claims

An electronic control device, comprising:

a connector case;
connectors disposed opposing in an exterior of the connector case and each having a multiple of terminals;
control boards disposed opposing in an interior of the connector case;
first extended terminals extended from the multiple of terminals of the opposing connectors respectively;
and
second extended terminals extended from the opposing control boards respectively, wherein
a hole is formed between the opposing connectors in the connector case, each of the first extended terminals and each of the second extended terminals oppose and approach each other toward the hole, and first externally extending terminals of the first extended terminals and second externally extending terminals of the second extended terminals are formed to penetrate the hole and exit to the exterior of the connector case from the hole, and pairs of the first externally extending terminals contact each other along first side faces thereof, and pairs of the second externally extending terminals contact each other along second side faces thereof that are opposite the first side faces.
