  • Publication number: 20120132837
    Abstract: A hydraulic control apparatus is disclosed which includes: a base body; and a housing to be fixed to one surface of the base body. The housing includes an opening facing the one surface of the base body. The opening includes a flange portion formed on and projected outwardly from an opening edge portion. The flange portion includes a screw-formed housing fixing hole for fixing the housing to the base body using a fastening member and a reference hole for provisionally fixing the housing when assembling parts to the housing. The reference hole is formed by lightening the flange portion and arranged parallel to the housing fixing hole.

  • Publication number: 20110265892
    Abstract: A connection structure for electrical component assembly including: an electrical component assembly provided with a coil energized through a pair of electrically conductive members; and a housing that covers the electrical component assembly and that is provided with housing-side connection terminals. The electrically conductive member has a connection terminal section connectable to the housing-side connection terminal. The connection terminal section is bent toward a side departing from the coil so as to protrude toward a side of the electrical component assembly, and one of the connection terminal sections is arranged at a position deviated in an axis direction of the coil relative to the other of the connection terminal sections.

  • Publication number: 20110239641
    Abstract: A brake fluid pressure control device for a vehicle includes: a base body; reservoirs to store brake fluid in the base body; and a single lid member secured to the base body. The reservoir has a reservoir hole, a piston that slides inside the reservoir hole, and a spring that biases the piston. The lid member hermetically seals the reservoir holes. The lid member includes a plate member with which the springs make contact and a ring-shaped sealing member held between one face of the base body to which the plate member is secured and the other face of the plate member opposed to the one face to provide a sealing function. In the lid member, a screw hole is disposed outside a region surrounded by the sealing member and a communication passage communicating with the reservoir holes is provided inside the region.
