Abstract

A voltage regulating circuit is provided in a single mold package, which is attached to the case directly or by a heat conductive material such that it is sandwiched between the case of a voltage regulator and a heat sink, conductors which serve as internal wirings and form terminals are insert-molded with the case of the voltage regulator and the brush holder to be superimposed upon the case of the voltage regulator, out of the terminals formed in the conductors, specific terminals on respective sides are aligned, and the brush holder is installed in the case of the voltage regulator in such a manner that they are superimposed upon each other so that electrical connection of these elements is effected.
