  • Patent number: 9426879
    Abstract: For providing an electric connection box including a metal core board, which can limit increase of a size thereof and be prevented from bending along the slit, the electric connection box 10 includes a metal core board 1, in which a plurality of core metal plates 21, 22 is laminated and insulation resin is filled between each of the plurality of core metal plates 21, 22. The plurality of core metal plates 21, 22 are provide with slits 3A, 3B to divide the core metal plates 21, 22 to a plurality of separate plates 21a, 21b, 22a, 22b and be filled with insulation resin. The slits 3A, 3B is formed not to overlap each other on the same one line when viewing in a vertical direction about the metal core board 1. The electric connection box 10 distributes electric power inputted from a plurality of power systems to each separate plates 21a, 21b, 22a, 22b.

  • Patent number: 9385512
    Abstract: An electrical junction box for distributing electric power in a vehicle includes a metal core substrate provided with a core metal assembly having two core metal plates arranged with a gap, an insulating layer embedded in the gap and covering surfaces of the core metal plates to integrate the core metal plates, and electronic components. Electric power from a battery is inputted into the core metal plate, and electric power from an alternator is inputted into the core metal plate. The electronic components are provided with a plurality of attaching portions soldered or screwed to the metal core substrate. At least one of the attaching portions is attached to the core metal plate, and at least one of the attaching portions is attached to the core metal plate.

  • Publication number: 20130206443
    Abstract: The electrical junction box is provided with a metal core substrate including: a rectangular-shaped core metal layer in which two core metal plates are arranged with a slit-shaped gap therebetween; and insulating layers filling the gap and integrating the two core metal plates by covering surfaces of the core metal plates. Electric power from a battery is inputted into the core metal plate, and electric power from an alternator is inputted into the core metal plate. The gap includes: a first straight portion vertically extended straight from one side of the core metal layer; a second straight portion vertically extended straight from another side of the core metal layer, parallel to a virtual extended line of the first straight portion, and not arranged in the same line as the first straight portion; and a square-U-shaped portion.
