Abstract:
A base unit includes a connector electrically connected to a motor having a central axis extending in a vertical direction, and a connector support portion arranged to support a board portion of the connector. The connector support portion includes a bottom plate portion arranged to extend perpendicularly to the central axis, and arranged to support a lower surface of the board portion; a window portion arranged to pass through the bottom plate portion in an axial direction, and arranged to cover or overlap with an electrode terminal of the connector when viewed in the axial direction; a first recessed portion defined in an upper surface of the bottom plate portion around the window portion, and arranged to overlap with the lower surface of the board portion when viewed in the axial direction; and a second recessed portion defined in the upper surface of the bottom plate portion, and arranged to be spaced apart from the first recessed portion. The first recessed portion has a thermosetting adhesive arranged therein to fix the bottom plate portion and the board portion to each other. The second recessed portion has a temporarily fixing adhesive arranged therein to temporarily fix the bottom plate portion and the board portion to each other.
