Motor including connector and connector pin and electric power steering device including same

A motor comprising:

• a rotor including an axially extending shaft;
• a stator surrounding a radially outer side of the rotor;
• a housing accommodating the rotor and the stator therein;
• a heat sink disposed axially above the stator;
• a board fixed axially above the heat sink;
• a connector radially outside the housing;
• and
• a connector pin accommodated in the connector and electrically connected to the board;
• wherein
• the heat sink includes a main body, and a protrusion which is continuous with the main body, the protrusion extending radially outward of the housing;
• the connector, the protrusion, and the board overlap in this order when viewed from axially below;
• the connector pin is positioned radially outside the protrusion;
• the board includes a first region in which a power element is mounted and a second region in which a control element is mounted;
• the first region and second region are located around the shaft and mutually separated circumferentially when viewed axially;
• the protrusion overlaps the first region when viewed axially;
• the connector in includes:
• a board connection portion connected to the board;
• and
• a connector connection portion connected to the connector;
• a position of the board connection portion and a position of the connector connection portion are different in a radial direction;
• the connector pin further includes:
• an axially extending portion positioned radially outside the protrusion and extending in the axial direction;
• and
• a radially extending portion extending radially inward from a lower end of the axially extending portion;
• and
• when viewed from axially below, the radially extending portion overlaps the protrusion, and an upper surface of the radially extending portion is positioned below a lower surface of the protrusion.
