FIG. 1 shows a planar shape of a substantially rectangular substrate embedded in a resin in a hollow substantially rectangular parallelepiped control device housing 10. FIG. 1A shows a substrate 11 having a cut-out portion 1 having a through opening a substantially in the center and obliquely cutting the four corners in a straight line, and FIG. FIG. 1C shows a substrate 11 having cutouts 2 cut at four corners by a curve having a center of curvature, and FIG. 1C shows a cutout cut at four corners by a curve having a through opening a substantially at the center and having a center of curvature outside. 1 (d) shows a substrate 11 having four through openings a substantially in the vicinity of the center and having notches 1 obliquely cut at four corners.
In addition, as shown in FIG. 1A, the notch is a portion having a distance L larger than the average distance G of the gap from the inner wall of the housing 10 to the substrate 11, and is not limited to a straight line or an arc. It may be defined by a line. Further, it is preferable that the cutouts be provided at all four corners, but the cutouts may be provided at one corner of the substrate as long as the flow of the flowable resin and the passage of the flowable resin are sufficient. The shape of the through-opening is not limited to a circle, but may be a polygon, a rectangle, an ellipse, or other closed line. The number and positions of the through openings are not limited to one or four, and need not be at the center of the substrate. In any case, the control board shape can be defined without significantly affecting the shape and number of mounted electronic components and the wiring pattern. Even if the housing is a rectangular parallelepiped or a polyhedron, the entire shape of the substrate is contoured to the shape in one cross section, and a predetermined clearance, that is, a gap is maintained and defined. For the passage of the resin itself, at least one of the above notches and through openings
One may be formed.

In this case, it goes without saying that the design of the circuit wiring pattern should also be considered. No.
An example of an assembling method of the electronic control device will be described. First, FIG.
As shown in (1), a housing 10 whose inside is cleaned is prepared.
This housing has all the wall openings sealed for a connector for electrical connection to the internal substrate. Next, as shown in FIG. 4, the substrate 11 is placed on a substrate holding portion provided at the lower edge of the inner wall of the housing, and is substantially parallel to the bottom wall of the housing. Then, the substrate is fixed to the holder by screwing or the like.

And a flowable curable synthetic resin 20, such as an epoxy resin, is injected. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 6, resin injection is continued until the substrate 11 is buried in the synthetic resin 20. At this time, the injection speed is set so that the flow does not involve air. That is, it is desirable that the tip of the nozzle be present in the resin, but it is not necessary that the tip be present in the resin. The air bubbles 30 trapped in the resin escape from the through holes a and the four corner cutouts 1 and float.
