Abstract
An electronic control unit case is disclosed, wherein a coil is provided on the top surface of a block housing control equipment for operating the same. The case protrudes a sidewall from the circumferential part of a plate portion thereof in which a bus bar is embeded and is secured onto the block with the sidewall resting at its end surface on the block while covering the coil. An electronic control unit is attached to the back surface of the plate portion, a through hole is formed in the plate portion in correspondence to the coil, and a terminal of the coil and a terminal portion of the bus bar are joined to each other in the through hole. In a plane which is parallel to the axis of the coil as well as to a plane in which a portion embeded in the plate portion of the bus bar extends, the terminal portion of the bus bar is bent twice or the terminal portion of the bus bar and the coil terminal are bent both once so that a point where the terminal portion of the bus bar and the coil terminal are joined to each other is offset from the portion embeded in the plate portion of the bus bar in a direction parallel to the coil axis or is further offset from a root portion of the coil t…
