Housing for an electronic circuit which is arranged on a printed circuit board

A housing for an electronic circuit with a housing lower part, with a housing upper part and with a printed circuit board which is arranged in the housing and serves to receive the electronic circuit,

• the housing lower part being of tub-shaped configuration and having in each case at least two supporting elements for the printed circuit board on at least two inner walls which lie opposite one another, having, moreover, in each case at least one molded position fixing formation on at least two inner walls which lie opposite one another, which molded position fixing formation serves to engage into a matching fixing slot in the printed circuit board to positionally fix the printed circuit board, and, moreover, having in each case one first part of a latching apparatus for connecting to the housing upper part on at least two outer walls which lie opposite one another,
• the printed circuit board being of rectangular configuration and having fixing slots for receiving the molded position fixing formations of the housing lower part on at least two sides which lie opposite one another,
• and, at its four corners, the printed circuit board having in each case one slot which runs parallel to that inner wall of the housing lower part to which the supporting elements are attached, the length of a slot being greater than the spacing of the slot from the adjacent printed circuit board edge, with the result that an elongate, resilient tab is formed at each corner of the printed circuit board,
• the housing upper part being of tub-shaped configuration and, at its four corners, having pins which protrude out of the plane of the housing upper part edge for pressing the tabs which are configured on the printed circuit board out of the printed circuit board plane into the housing lower part in the assembled state of the housing, and, moreover, having in each case one second part of the latching apparatus for connecting to the housing lower part on at least two outer walls which lie opposite one another.
