Definitions

  • the invention relates to a vehicle antenna with a protective tube fastened within the body for receiving a rigid or telescopic antenna rod which, in the operating state, penetrates a breakthrough in the body panel and in the recessed state together with the head part of the protective tube the body surface as little as possible towered over.
  • Such antennas are known in two different types. In the first, most frequently used type, the antenna protection tube is watertightly fastened to the body opening, whereby in order to avoid the risk of injury, especially in minor accidents, the antenna parts protruding from the body as far as possible and with rounded edges when the antenna rod is lowered by motor or by hand . This purpose is satisfactorily fulfilled in a vehicle antenna known from DE-GM 72 27 481.
  • the structure provided for this is complex and expensive due to the use of many complicated parts in the manufacture and assembly.
  • the attachment is only designed for a single angle of inclination of the antenna relative to the body surface, so that either the mounting points are very limited, or for the many different body inclinations that occur in practice, a myriad of different versions are required, which increases the manufacturing and storage costs in most cases continue to increase to an unacceptable extent.
  • the other known vehicle antennas of the first type also have these disadvantages and, moreover, only inadequately meet the requirements for a flat design which are raised for safety reasons.
  • the second type of vehicle antenna known from practice is ideally conceived in this respect, because it is arranged and fastened completely within the body when the antenna rod is retracted and the opening has only one decorative frame, that protrudes only slightly from the surface of the body.
  • this structure is only suitable for motorized antennas, because pulling out the antenna rod by hand is at least difficult, in some cases even impossible.
  • such antennas cannot be attached to vehicle surfaces that use the interior, such as e.g. the trunk. Due to the failure of this large area of application, the practical application is considerably limited.
  • the object is achieved to provide a vehicle antenna according to the preamble of claim 1, the body implementation is at the same time as simple and cost-effective construction waterproof, also serves for attachment and allows the antenna to tilt relative to the body surface.
  • a one-piece preferably by means of an annular groove which engages in the edge zone of the body panel surrounding the opening, is provided, the inner surface of which has a spherical shell-shaped section, in which, when the antenna is mounted, has a correspondingly curved area of the head part of the protective tube under pressure and can be rotated within certain limits to adjust the inclination of the antenna relative to the body surface.
  • the antenna design according to the invention achieves a technically elegant and inexpensive solution to the task at hand.
  • An embodiment of the grommet according to claim 2 brings about its additional sealing against penetration from the outside between the grommet and the head part of the protective tube under unfavorable circumstances - the water, as well as when mounted on the fender against splash water from below.
  • the sealing property is permanently guaranteed.
  • the head part of the protective tube is very easy to push into the grommet.
  • the retaining bracket proposed in claim 5 advantageously fulfills two tasks, namely on the one hand a further fastening of the protective tube of the vehicle antenna to suitable Neten body parts and at the same time the electrical ground connection that is essential for the functioning of the antenna. There is the additional advantage that the latter can be realized in a known manner on such a bracket considerably more easily and safely than on the body opening.
  • An adjustment of the position of the bracket to the respective inclination of the protective tube can be achieved in a simple and effective manner by an embodiment according to claim 6, wherein the elongated hole provided facilitates assembly at different locations on the vehicle body or in different vehicles within wide limits.
  • FIG. 1 and 2 show a partially sectioned view with the antenna protruding or inclined perpendicularly to the body surface, the lower part of the protective tube, which is not essential to the invention, and also the retaining bracket in FIG. 2 being omitted for the sake of clarity.
  • Fig. 3 the spout is shown in an unclamped state on an enlarged scale.
  • a rubber grommet 3 is "buttoned" into an opening 1 of the body panel 2 from above, i.e. pressed in and fastened by an annular groove 5 engaging in the edge zone 4 of the body panel 2.
  • a sealing lip 7, which extends in a wedge-shaped manner and projects inwards on the circumference of the rounded part 6 of the rubber grommet 3, is pressed under pressure against the body panel 2 in such a way that penetration of relaxed water is effectively prevented at this point.
  • the protective tube ⁇ of the vehicle antenna has a section 9 which carries a laterally protruding cable connection piece 10 and an annular collar 11.
  • the head part 12 of the protective tube 8 has a spherical area which is adapted to a corresponding spherical shell-shaped inner surface 13 of the rubber grommet 3.
  • the protective tube 8 is pressed into the rubber grommet 3 from below, the spherical one
  • the area of the head part 12 rests under pressure on the inner surface 13 of the rubber grommet 3 in such a way that on the one hand this location is also protected against the ingress of water and on the other hand it is still possible to pivot the antenna within certain limits to set a desired angle of inclination to the body surface .
  • a bellows-like corrugated socket 14 of the rubber grommet 3 with an annular bead 15 rests on the outer surface of the protective tube 8 as well as on the collar 11 under pressure and thus forms a protection against splashing water penetrating from below and an additional seal against all - in extreme cases between the head part 12 and the rubber grommet 3 slightly penetrating water.
  • the corrugation itself, as well as the length of the connector 14 and its wall thickness in connection with the material properties must be dimensioned so that the head part 12 is still well through the connector 14 can be inserted, but this, even at extreme angles of inclination of the antenna, rests under pressure on the protective tube 8 at least with the entire circumference of the annular bead 15.
  • the corrugation of the connector 14 is uniform over the entire circumference when the antenna is mounted perpendicular to the body surface, and differently when mounting at an angle, as can clearly be seen in FIG. 2.
  • an antenna with an antenna rod that can be pulled out and pushed in by hand is selected.
  • the section 9 of the protective tube 8 has a lateral flange 17 to which one end of a band-shaped retaining bracket 18 is fastened by means of a screw connection 19.
  • At least one of the corners of the holding bracket lE engages in at least one notch 2o of a half a circular spike of section 9, whereby the angle of inclination of the antenna relative to the body surface can be determined in steps in a simple and effective manner.
  • the other bracket end is fastened for fastening and electrical ground connection of the antenna to the body by means of a further screw connection 21.
  • the bracket 18 is provided with an elongated hole 22.
