Abstract

A resin casing includes a resin case and a resin cover attached to the resin case. A plurality of depressions is formed respectively on an outer surface and an inner surface of a top plate of the resin cover. The depressions are alternately arranged on the outer surface and the inner surface along a predetermined direction as seen in a plan view.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A resin casing that houses an electronic control unit, the resin casing comprising:
a plurality of faces formed of resin and defining a substantially rectangular prism shape;
wherein a first face of the plurality of faces comprises an outer surface and an inner surface;
a plurality of outer depressions are provided in the outer surface of the first face;
a plurality of inner depressions are provided in the inner surface of the first face;
the first face is substantially rectangular shaped and comprises a first edge and a second edge substantially perpendicular to the first edge;
none of the plurality of outer depressions overlaps with any one of the plurality of inner depressions when viewed in a direction perpendicular to the outer surface and the inner surface;
the inner and outer depressions each comprise an opening and all of the openings are formed in a substantially same shape and size.

2. The resin casing of claim 1 ,
wherein the plurality of outer depressions are arranged in a plurality of outer depression rows substantially parallel to the first edge, wherein a distance between adjacent depressions in a row of the plurality of outer depression rows is smaller than a length of a edge of one of the depressions;
the plurality of inner depressions are arranged in a plurality of inner depression rows parallel to the first edge, wherein a distance between adjacent depressions in a row of the plurality of inner depression rows is smaller than a length of a edge of one of the depressions; and
wherein the plurality of outer depression rows and the plurality of inner depression rows are arranged such that the plurality of outer depression rows and the plurality of inner depression rows alternate in a direction parallel to the second edge.

3. The resin casing of claim 1 ,
wherein all of the depressions are depressed in a substantially same depth.

4. The resin casing of claim 1 ,
wherein none of the depressions houses the electronic control unit.
