  • Patent number: 12048104
    Abstract: In a structure for connecting a terminal to a circuit substrate within a case, a resin holder to which a plurality of terminal members are insert bonded is insert bonded to a resin case member having a connector portion and configuring part of the case. Each terminal member has one end part connected to the circuit substrate housed in the case, another end part of the terminal member being disposed within the connector portion. The holder is insert bonded to the case member while leaving an exposure hole as a cavity. Formed in the case member is an open hole communicating with the exposure hole and opening on a housing chamber side. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent a short circuit due to moisture from occurring between the terminal members retained by the holder.

  • Patent number: 7352483
    Abstract: A number-of-commands counter counts number of commands received during a predetermined measurement period, which is timed by a timer. An access interval determiner determines command reception frequency from the count result, and decides on an optimum access interval time. An MIB update unit updates <access interval MIB> based on the optimum access interval time. An SNMP agent responds to an obtaining command and transmits <access interval MIB>. An MIB receiver receives <access interval MIB> and an MIB obtainer analyzes <access interval MIB> to recognize the access interval time. A timer setter sets the recognized access interval time at a timer as a timer setting.
