Abstract
A rotary actuator is used in a shift-by-wire system for a vehicle. The actuator includes a motor, a controller, a housing, and a bus bar. The controller controls the motor. The housing holds a stator of the motor and the controller. The bus bar includes a terminal and a holder. The terminal electrically connects a coil of the stator to a control board of the controller. The holder is molded with a part of the terminal. The terminal includes a board-side arm that extends from the holder and a connecting pin that protrudes from the board-side arm toward the control board and that is connected to the control board. The board-side arm includes a stress releasing member that extends along an imaginary plane in parallel with the control board. The stress releasing member includes at least one curved portion at which the stress releasing member is curved or bent.
