このような車載用電子機器では、通常、ベースとコネクタ,コネクタとカバー,カバーとベースは、それらの間をシール材で水密的に封止して接着固定し、さらにカバーとベースがねじ止めにより固定される。

エンジンルーム等の車室外で使用される車載用電子機器は、初期の防水性に加えて種々の環境下での使用を考慮した耐久防水性が必要とされる。車載用電子機器の筺体は、種々の環境下での使用を考慮して、剛性の高い金属にて構成されることが多い。ここで、降雪地帯では、道路の融雪・凍結防止目的で、塩化カルシウムが散布されている。このため、路上の塩化カルシウムが融雪により水溶液となり、その上を車両が通行する際にしぶきとなり、霧状になった水溶液が車載用電子機器の筐体のシール部分に付着して、筐体とシール材の接着界面を塩食し、金属筐体の腐食部がシール材剥離の原因となる。このような環境下においても十分な信頼性を確保するために、より耐塩食性が高く、耐久防水性に優れたシール構造が必要となる。
In-vehicle electronic devices used outside the passenger compartment such as the engine room are required to be durable and waterproof in consideration of use in various environments in addition to the initial waterproofness. The housing of an in-vehicle electronic device is often composed of a highly rigid metal in consideration of use in various environments. Here, in the snowfall area, calcium chloride is sprayed for melting and freezing prevention of roads. For this reason, calcium chloride on the road turns into an aqueous solution due to melting snow, and it becomes splashed when the vehicle passes over it, and the mist-like aqueous solution adheres to the seal portion of the housing of the in-vehicle electronic device, The adhesive interface of the sealing material is corroded, and the corroded portion of the metal casing causes the peeling of the sealing material. In order to ensure sufficient reliability even in such an environment, a seal structure with higher salt corrosion resistance and excellent durability and waterproofness is required.

本発明の車載用電子機器のシール構造の一実施形態について説明する。図4にシール部の断面構造と金属ベースの斜視図を示す。図4では金属ベース15のシール材接着面512の筐体内側に断続的に複数の凹部530を形成した例である。回路基板14が搭載された金属ベース15のシール材接着面512にシール材20を塗布する。この際、複数の凹部530にはシール材20が充填される。その後、金属ベース15に金属カバー11を取り付けて金属ベース15と金属カバー11をシール材により接着する。なお、シール材接着面512にはシール材の厚さを確保するための突起504が形成されており、突起504によりシール材の高さを調整している。なお、この突起504は螺子止め用段上げ凸部18であってもよい。図4のシール構造では、塩食が凹部530まで進行しても、凹部530の壁面531部分のシール材20の接着力により、シール材20に、エンジンルーム内の気温差による熱変形や、振動が加わっても、シール材の剥離を抑制することができる。また、図4に示したように、金属カバー11が金属ベース15の側面の一部を覆うように構成し、金属ベース15のシール材接着面512を上面及び側面の複数の面で構成することで、シール部の塩水の浸入が抑制されるため好ましい。なお、図4では金属ベース15に複数の凹部を形成したが、金属カバー11のシール材接着面511に複数の凹部を形成しても良い。なお、凹部530には接着力を発現する程度にシール材20が充填されていればよく、必ずしもシール材20は凹部530に完全に充填されていなくても良い。
An embodiment of a seal structure for an in-vehicle electronic device according to the present invention will be described. FIG. 4 shows a cross-sectional structure of the seal portion and a perspective view of the metal base. FIG. 4 shows an example in which a plurality of recesses 530 are intermittently formed inside the housing of the sealing material bonding surface 512 of the metal base 15. The sealing material 20 is applied to the sealing material bonding surface 512 of the metal base 15 on which the circuit board 14 is mounted. At this time, the plurality of recesses 530 are filled with the sealing material 20. Thereafter, the metal cover 11 is attached to the metal base 15, and the metal base 15 and the metal cover 11 are bonded with a sealing material. Note that a protrusion 504 for ensuring the thickness of the sealing material is formed on the sealing material bonding surface 512, and the height of the sealing material is adjusted by the protrusion 504. Note that the protrusion 504 may be a stepped protrusion 18 for screwing. In the seal structure of FIG. 4, even when salt corrosion progresses to the recess 530, due to the adhesive force of the seal material 20 on the wall surface 531 portion of the recess 530, the seal material 20 is subjected to thermal deformation or vibration due to the temperature difference in the engine room. Even if is added, peeling of the sealing material can be suppressed. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the metal cover 11 is configured to cover a part of the side surface of the metal base 15, and the sealing material bonding surface 512 of the metal base 15 is configured by a plurality of upper and side surfaces. Therefore, it is preferable because the intrusion of salt water in the seal portion is suppressed. In FIG. 4, a plurality of recesses are formed in the metal base 15, but a plurality of recesses may be formed in the sealing material bonding surface 511 of the metal cover 11. Note that it is only necessary that the recess 530 is filled with the sealing material 20 to the extent that an adhesive force is developed, and the sealing material 20 does not necessarily have to be completely filled in the recess 530.
本発明の車載用電子機器のシール構造の他の実施形態を図5に示す。図5は金属カバー11のシール材接着面511に突起540が設けられ、金属ベース15のシール材接着面512に凹部530が設けられたシール構造の断面図である。また、点線部分の側面を筐体内側から見た側面図を点線枠内に示している。金属ベース15のシール材接着面512の筐体内側に複数の凹部530が形成され、金属カバーの凹部530に対向する部分に突起540が形成され、凹部530と突起540の隙間にシール材が充填されている。本構成では、図4のシール構造よりもシール材界面を構成する壁面531が増大され、よりシール材の密着性を高めることができる。筐体外側のシール材厚さをd1とし、筐体内側のシール材厚さをd4とした場合、シール材厚さがd4>d1となるように凹部530,突起540を設けることが好ましい。また、突起540の幅d2が凹部の幅d3より小さく、突起540と凹部530が対向するように設けられることが望ましい。
FIG. 5 shows another embodiment of the seal structure of the in-vehicle electronic device according to the present invention. FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of a sealing structure in which a protrusion 540 is provided on the sealing material adhesion surface 511 of the metal cover 11 and a recess 530 is provided on the sealing material adhesion surface 512 of the metal base 15. Moreover, the side view which looked at the side surface of the dotted line part from the housing | casing inside is shown in the dotted line frame. A plurality of recesses 530 are formed inside the housing of the sealing material bonding surface 512 of the metal base 15, a protrusion 540 is formed in a portion facing the recess 530 of the metal cover, and a sealing material is filled in a gap between the recess 530 and the protrusion 540. Has been. In this structure, the wall surface 531 which comprises a sealing material interface is increased rather than the sealing structure of FIG. 4, and the adhesiveness of a sealing material can be improved more. When the thickness of the sealing material on the outside of the housing is d1 and the thickness of the sealing material on the inside of the housing is d4, it is preferable to provide the recesses 530 and the protrusions 540 so that the sealing material thickness is d4> d1. In addition, it is desirable that the width d2 of the protrusion 540 is smaller than the width d3 of the recess, and the protrusion 540 and the recess 530 are opposed to each other.
本発明の車載用電子機器のシール構造の他の実施形態を図6に示す。本構成は図5の構成において、さらにシール材接着面511,512の筐体外側の面を平坦化処理した例である。通常、金属ベース15や金属カバー11の表面には加工精度との兼ね合いからうねりを有している。図6に示したように、塩水と接するシール材接着面511,512の筐体外側の面を平坦化処理することにより、塩水に対するシール材接着界面の露出量を小さくなり、シール材接着界面への塩水の付着を抑制し、塩食を抑制することができる。
FIG. 6 shows another embodiment of the seal structure of the in-vehicle electronic device according to the present invention. This configuration is an example in which the outer surfaces of the sealing material bonding surfaces 511 and 512 are further flattened in the configuration of FIG. Usually, the surfaces of the metal base 15 and the metal cover 11 have undulations in consideration of processing accuracy. As shown in FIG. 6, by flattening the outer surfaces of the sealing material adhesion surfaces 511 and 512 that are in contact with salt water, the amount of exposure of the sealing material adhesion interface with respect to salt water is reduced, and the sealing material adhesion interface is reached. It is possible to suppress the salt water from adhering to salt water.
また、金属ベース15や金属カバー11とシール材20の界面から塩水が浸入する際に、金属ベース15や金属カバー11の表面のうねりがあると隙間が生じやすくなり、この隙間から塩水の浸入が進行しやすくなる。これに対して、シール材接着面の筐体外側の面を平坦化処理することにより、金属カバー等とシール材との密着性が向上できるため、シール材接着界面に塩水が侵入してもその進行を抑制しやすくなり、これにより塩食の開始を遅らせることができる。また、一方で内側には断続的に凹部や突起を設けてシール材接着面積を大きくしているため、塩食が進んだ場合でもシール材接着界面の剥離を防止することができる。
Further, when salt water enters from the interface between the metal base 15 or the metal cover 11 and the sealing material 20, if there are undulations on the surface of the metal base 15 or the metal cover 11, gaps are likely to be generated, and salt water intrudes from the gaps. Easy to progress. On the other hand, since the adhesion between the metal cover or the like and the sealing material can be improved by flattening the surface outside the housing of the sealing material adhesion surface, even if salt water enters the sealing material adhesion interface It becomes easy to suppress the progress, and thereby the start of the salt diet can be delayed. On the other hand, since the sealing material bonding area is increased by intermittently providing recesses and protrusions on the inner side, peeling of the sealing material bonding interface can be prevented even when salt corrosion progresses.
車載用電気機器を塩水噴霧環境下において試験した結果、シール材接着界面の塩食は主にカバーとベースを固定するボルトの間の中央部分のシール材や、エンジンルームに筺体を固定するためのボルト付近のシール部等、シール材の変形量が大きくなる箇所や、筺体に振動等の負荷がかかりやすい箇所で生じやすいことを確認している。上述したシール構造は、主に筺体の金属カバーと金属ベースを固定するボルトの間の中央部分や、エンジンルームに筺体を固定するためのボルト付近のシール部等、シール材の変形量が大きくなる箇所や、筺体に振動等の負荷がかかりやすい箇所に施すことが好ましい。上述した断続的な凹部や突起はシール材接着面の全体に形成してもよいが、上述した塩食の発生しやすい場所のみに限定して設けることでもよい。このように塩食の発生しやすい所定の箇所に選択的に凹部や突起を設ければ、シール材の塗布量を少なくでき、電子機器の製造コストを下げることが可能である。
As a result of testing automotive electrical equipment in a salt spray environment, salt corrosion at the sealing material adhesion interface is mainly used to seal the sealing material at the center between the bolt that secures the cover and the base, and to fix the chassis to the engine room. It has been confirmed that this is likely to occur at locations where the amount of deformation of the sealing material is large, such as the seal portion near the bolt, or where the load on the housing is likely to be subject to vibrations. The above-described seal structure mainly increases the amount of deformation of the sealing material, such as the central portion between the bolts that fix the metal cover of the casing and the metal base, and the seal portions near the bolts that fix the casing to the engine room. It is preferable to apply to places or places where loads such as vibration are likely to be applied to the housing. The intermittent recesses and protrusions described above may be formed on the entire sealing material bonding surface, but may be limited to the above-described locations where salt corrosion is likely to occur. In this way, if a recess or protrusion is selectively provided at a predetermined location where salt corrosion is likely to occur, the amount of sealing material applied can be reduced, and the manufacturing cost of the electronic device can be reduced.
本発明のシール構造により、シール材の接着面積が向上し、シール材接着界面の塩食が進んでも、シール材が剥離し難くなり、塩食による車載用電子機器の破壊を防ぐことができる。本発明の車載用電子機器はハイブリッド車両や電動車両等に適用することが可能である。
The sealing structure of the present invention improves the bonding area of the sealing material and makes it difficult for the sealing material to be peeled off even if salt corrosion on the sealing material bonding interface progresses, thereby preventing in-vehicle electronic equipment from being damaged by salt corrosion. The on-vehicle electronic device of the present invention can be applied to a hybrid vehicle, an electric vehicle, or the like.
