Patent attributes
An actuator includes a lower housing member, an upper housing member ached to the lower one, and a cover member. Inside the lower housing member are arranged a driving source, a power-transmitting mechanism configured for transmitting a driving powder of the driving source to a output shaft to which a member to be driven is to be attached, a connector having terminals projected therefrom. A partition plate is provided in the upper housing member and has an opening for exposing said terminals of the connector and adapted to define a partition chamber opened to outside. A circuit board is placed on the partition plate, and has connection terminals connected to the terminals of the connector with a solder on the partition plate. A control circuit is assembled into the circuit board for the driving source. The cover member covers the circuit board.
