Definitions
- the invention belongs to the field of heatable viewing windows for vehicles which also carry antennas for mobile radio reception.
- the invention thus also belongs to the field of disc antennas.
- Heated viewing panels with antennas are e.g. B. known from DEAS 23 60 672.
- a conductor system is arranged on these known viewing windows for motor vehicles, which also performs heating functions and antenna functions.
- electrical resistance elements are arranged between current-carrying busbars, one of which is located near the upper, the other near the lower edge of the pane, while the heating wires run vertically between the busbars.
- One of the two busbars is divided into two parts and the two parts are capacitively coupled to a receiver at their adjacent ends via feed lines.
- the two parts of the busbar and any extensions attached to them form an FM antenna.
- the FM antenna is tuned by theoretical calculation of the length of the extensions and subsequent corrections based on measurements.
- antennas which are sensitive in the FM range, as well as those for the AM radio range can be integrated into vaporized viewing panes if the covering is designed in accordance with the features of claim 1 and is connected to the receiver.
- a lens 1 is shown for a vehicle, the outline of which is intended as a rear or front window.

- a slot 2 of sufficient length and small width is cut out at a distance a from the one edge of the steamed surface, essentially parallel to it.
- the heating current is supplied via the edges 5, 6 of the vaporized surface, which lie opposite the slot ends 3, 4.

- the slot ends 3, 4 also maintain a distance a from the busbar.
- the slot ends 3, 4 can also be angled with respect to the central region 9 and guided parallel to the busbars 7, 8 in order to achieve a greater slot length.

- the width of the slot can be kept very small compared to half the wavelength ⁇ / 2, while the distance a is chosen to be small compared to half the wavelength ⁇ / 2.
- the value of the constant ⁇ r should expediently be chosen such that the slot ends do not have to be angled in order to tune the slot antenna to the value on the order of ⁇ / 2 in the FM range. Because an angling of the slot ends may affect the flow of the heating current, so that an unheated zone can form between the angled ends.
- the center of the upper edge at 10 of the slot 2 is connected to the inner conductor 12 of a coaxial cable, while the center of the lower edge at 11 is connected to the chassis via a capacitance 15, which is a short-circuit for FM Lens surrounds.

- the transmitter 25 Since the vaporized area is surrounded here by a circumferential free space 22, the transmitter 25 also transmits the signals of the AM radio range via the coaxial cable.
- a circumferential free space 32 the length of which has the electrical value ⁇ in the VHF range, is left between the circumferential edge 31 of the viewing window 30 and the vapor-coated surface. If the inner conductor 33 of a coaxial cable is connected to the vaporized surface, a sufficient signal can be obtained from it for both an FM and an AM receiver.
- the free space 32 acts as a slot antenna, since the metallic chassis edge for the vehicle window, which is indicated at 34, surrounds the lens 30 on the outside.
- the vaporized area serves as a conductor.
- FIG. 4 shows the connection of the upper edge 41 of the slot 40 to a coaxial cable via an interposed strip line 42.
- a T-shaped structure is left in the vapor-coated surface.
- the strip line 42 is passed between the two edges 43, 44 of the vertical T-leg and, as FIG. 4a shows more clearly, is connected to the inner conductor 45 of the coaxial cable 46 at the lower end of the viewing window.

Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung gehört zum Bereich der heizbaren Sichtscheiben für Fahrzeuge, die zugleich Antennen für den mobilen Funkempfang tragen.The invention belongs to the field of heatable viewing windows for vehicles which also carry antennas for mobile radio reception.
Die Erfindung gehört damit auch zum Gebiet der Scheibenantennen. Heizbare Sichtscheiben mit Antennen sind z. B. aus der DEAS 23 60 672 bekannt. Auf diesen bekannten Sichtscheiben für Kraftfahrzeuge ist ein Leitersystem angeordnet, das zugleich Heizfunktionen und Antennenfunktionen übernimmt. Bei dieser Sichtscheibe sind elektrische Widerstandselemente zwischen stromführenden Sammelschienen angeordnet, von denen eine in der Nähe des oberen, die andere in der Nähe des unteren Scheibenrandes angebracht sind, während die Heizdrähte vertikal zwischen den Sammelschienen verlaufen. Die eine der beiden Sammelschienen ist in zwei Teile geteilt und die beiden Teile sind an ihren benachbarten Enden über Zuleitungen kapazitiv an einen Empfänger gekoppelt. Die beiden Teile der Sammelschiene und daran gegebenenfalls angebrachte Verlängerungen bilden eine UKW-Antenne. Die Abstimmung der UKW-Antenne erfolgt durch theoretische Berechnung der Länge der Verlängerungen und sich daran anschließende Korrekturen aufgrund von Messungen.The invention thus also belongs to the field of disc antennas. Heated viewing panels with antennas are e.g. B. known from DEAS 23 60 672. A conductor system is arranged on these known viewing windows for motor vehicles, which also performs heating functions and antenna functions. In this lens, electrical resistance elements are arranged between current-carrying busbars, one of which is located near the upper, the other near the lower edge of the pane, while the heating wires run vertically between the busbars. One of the two busbars is divided into two parts and the two parts are capacitively coupled to a receiver at their adjacent ends via feed lines. The two parts of the busbar and any extensions attached to them form an FM antenna. The FM antenna is tuned by theoretical calculation of the length of the extensions and subsequent corrections based on measurements.
Seit einiger Zeit sind Sichtscheiben für Fahrzeuge im Gespräch, die über die ganze Fläche mit Gold oder einem anderen leitfähigem Metall bedampft sind. Dieser Metallbelag soll auch zur Scheibenheizung herangezogen werden. Dazu werden z. B. an zwei gegenüberliegenden Scheibenrändern Sammelschienen für die Heizzustromzufuhr angeordnet. Keine der Sammelschienen eignet sich wegen des sich anschließenden Metallbelages als UKW-Antenne.For some time now, windows have been under discussion for vehicles that are covered with gold or another conductive metal over the entire surface. This metal coating should also be used for heating the windows. For this z. B. arranged on two opposite disc edges busbars for the heating supply. None of the busbars is suitable as an FM antenna because of the metal covering that follows.
In bedampfte Sichtscheiben lassen sich jedoch Antennen integrieren, die im UKW-Bereich empfindlich sind, wie auch solche für den AM-Rundfunkbereich, wenn der Belag entsprechend den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 ausgebildet und an dem Empfänger angeschlossen ist.However, antennas which are sensitive in the FM range, as well as those for the AM radio range, can be integrated into vaporized viewing panes if the covering is designed in accordance with the features of
Anhand der Zeichnung werden drei Ausführungsbeispiele der erfindungsgemäß ausgebildeten Sichtscheibe näher erläutert.Three exemplary embodiments of the viewing window designed according to the invention are explained in more detail with reference to the drawing.

- FIG. 2 shows a viewing window with a λ / 4 slot antenna,
- - Figure 3 is a viewing window with a λ slot antenna

In Figur 1 ist eine Sichtscheibe 1 für ein Fahrzeug dargestellt, die ihrem Umriß nach als Heck- oder Frontscheibe gedacht ist. Diese Sichtscheibe ist in bekannter Weise mit einem gutleitenden Metallbelag bedampft, so daß der Metallbelag als niederohmig anzusehen ist.In Figure 1, a
Es ist bekannt, diesen Metallbelag zur Scheibenheizung zu verwenden. Daneben behindern diese getönten Scheiben die Sonneneinstrahlung, aber auch den Einblick in das Fahrzeug. Diese Eigenschaften der bedampften Sichtscheibe sind hier aber von untergeordneter Bedeutung.It is known to use this metal coating for heating the windows. In addition, these tinted windows hinder the sun's rays, but also the view into the vehicle. However, these properties of the steamed lens are of minor importance.
Bei der Bedampfung der Sichtscheibe ist ein Schlitz 2 ausreichender Länge und geringer Breite in einem Abstand a von der einen Kante der bedampften Fläche im wesentlichen parallel zu dieser ausgespart. Die Stromzuführung des Heizstroms erfolgt über die Kanten 5, 6 der bedampften Fläche, die den Schlitzenden 3, 4 gegenüberliegen. Die Kanten des Metallbelages können dabei selbst Sammelschienen 7, 8 für die Stromzufuhr bilden. Diese Sammelschienen können aber auch gesondert ausgeführt sein. Die Schlitzenden 3, 4 halten ebenfalls einen Abstand a von der Sammelschiene ein.When the viewing window is steamed, a
Die Schlitzenden 3, 4 können auch gegenüber dem Zentralbereich 9 abgewinkelt und parallel zu den Sammelschienen 7, 8 geführt sein, um eine größere Schlitzlänge zu erreichen.The slot ends 3, 4 can also be angled with respect to the central region 9 and guided parallel to the busbars 7, 8 in order to achieve a greater slot length.
Befindet sich eine solche Sichtscheibe im elektromagnetischen Feld eines UKW-Rundfunksenders, so bildet sich über dem Schlitz ein elektrisches Wechselfeld aus und der Schlitz wird von einem Ringwechselstrom umflossen. Die Länge des Schlitzes soll in etwa dem elektrischen Wertλ/2 im UKW-Bereich entsprechen. Die Länge hängt daher ab von der dielektrizätskonstanten εr des Glases der Sichtscheibe. Die Breite des Schlitzes kann sehr klein gegenüber der halben Wellenlänge λ/2 gehalten werden, während der Abstand a klein gegenüber der halben Wellenlänge λ/2 gewählt ist.If such a viewing window is located in the electromagnetic field of an FM radio transmitter, an alternating electrical field is formed above the slot and a ring alternating current flows around the slot. The length of the slot should correspond approximately to the electrical value λ / 2 in the FM range. The length therefore depends on the dielectric constant ε r of the glass of the lens. The width of the slot can be kept very small compared to half the wavelength λ / 2, while the distance a is chosen to be small compared to half the wavelength λ / 2.
Zweckmäßigerweise sollte der Wert der Konstanten εr so gewählt sein, daß die Schlitzenden nicht abgewinkelt werden müssen, um die Schlitzantenne auf der Wert in der Größenordnung von λ/2 im UKW-Bereich abzustimmen. Denn eine Abwinklung der Schlitzenden beeinträchtigt unter Umständen den Fluß des Heizstromes, so daß sich zwischen den abgewinkelten Enden eine ungeheizte Zone ausbilden kann.The value of the constant ε r should expediently be chosen such that the slot ends do not have to be angled in order to tune the slot antenna to the value on the order of λ / 2 in the FM range. Because an angling of the slot ends may affect the flow of the heating current, so that an unheated zone can form between the angled ends.
In Figur 1 ist die Mitte des oberen Randes bei 10 des Schlitzes 2 mit dem Innenleiter 12 eines Koaxialkabels verbunden, während die Mitte des unteren Randes bei 11 über eine Kapazität 15, die für UKW einen Kurzanschluß darstellt, an das Chassis angeschlossen ist, das die Sichtscheiben umgibt. Mit diesem Chassis ist auch der Außenleiter 13 des Koaxialkabels verbunden.In Figure 1, the center of the upper edge at 10 of the
Die Figur 2 zeigt eine Schlitzantenne, deren elektrische Länge λ/4 im UKW-Bereich ist. Der Fußpunkt 21 endet in einem umlaufenden Freiraum 22. Auch hier erstreckt sich der Schlitz 20 im wesentlichen in Flußrichtung des Heizstromes, der aus dem linken bzw. rechten Sichtscheibenrand 23, 24 zu-bzw. abgeführt wird. Die beiden Schlitzränder sind an dem Fußpunkt mittels eines Übertragers 25 verbunden, der den Anschluß an den Innenleiter 26 eines Koaxialkabels bringt, dessen Außenleiter 27 wieder mit dem Chassis verbunden ist.FIG. 2 shows a slot antenna whose electrical length λ / 4 is in the FM range. The
Da die bedampfte Fläche hier von einem umlaufenden Freiraum 22 umgeben ist, überträgt der Übertrager 25 über das Koaxialkabel auch die Signale des AM-Runfunkbereiches.Since the vaporized area is surrounded here by a circumferential
In Figur 3 ist zwischen der umlaufenden Kante 31 der Sichtscheibe 30 und der bedampften Fläche ein umlaufender Freiraum 32 ausgespart, dessen Länge den elektrischen Wertλ im UKW-Bereich hat. Ist an die bedampfte Fläche der Innenleiter 33 eines Koaxialkabels angeschlossen, so läßt sich an diesem ein ausreichendes Signal, sowohl für einen UKW- als auch einen AM-Empfänger abnehmen. Im UKW-Bereich wirkt der Freiraum 32 als Schlitzantenne, da der metallische Chassisrand für das Fahrzeugfenster, der bei 34 angedeutet ist, die Sichtscheibe 30 außen umschließt.In FIG. 3, a circumferential
Im AM-Rundfunkbereich dagegen dient wie auch in Figur 2, die bedampfte Fläche insgesamt als Leiter.In the AM broadcasting area, however, as in FIG. 2, the vaporized area serves as a conductor.
Figur 4 zeigt den Anschluß des oberen Randes 41 des Schlitzes 40 an ein Koaxialkabel über eine zwischengeschaltete Streifenleitung 42. Zu diesem Zweck ist in der bedampften Fläche eine T-förmige Struktur ausgespart. Die Streifenleitung 42 ist zwischen den beiden Rändern 43, 44 des vertikalen T-Schenkels hindurchgeführt und wie Figur 4a deutlicher zeigt, am unteren Ende der Sichtscheibe mit dem Innenleiter 45 des Koaxialkabels 46 verbunden. Der vertikale Schlitz ist mit einer metallisierten Isolierschicht 47 abgedeckt, die zusammen mit den Rändern 43, 44 eine kapazitive Kopplung für den Ringwechselstrom um die Schlitzantenne bildet. Die nach außen weisende Metallisierung auf der Isolierschicht 47 ist bei 48 mit Chassis verbunden, an das auch der Außenleiter 49 des Koaxialkabels 46 angeschlossen ist.Figure 4 shows the connection of the upper edge 41 of the
Die Ränder 43, 44 können auch als Sammelschiene für die Zufuhr des Heizstromes dienen. In die Zufuhrleitungen 50, 51 für den Heizstrom sind dann jeweils im AM-Bereich wirksame Drosseln 52, 53 einzuschließen, die zweckmäßigerweise auf einen gemeinsamen Ringkern 54 gewickelt sind.The
Figur 5 zeigt eine verbesserte Ausführung der Schlitzantenne nach Figur 1. Im Abstand h von dem aus Figur 1 bekannten Schlitz 55, befindet sich ein zweiter Schlitz 56, der in Länge und Breite in etwa dem ersten Schlitz 55 entspricht. Dadurch läßt sich ein Antennengewinn in der Horizontalen erreichen. Die Länge des Schlitzes 56 und der Abstand h von dem Schlitz 55 gehen in die Größe des Antennengewinnes und in die Richtwirkung der Antenne ein und müssen entsprechend den Gegebenheiten im einzelnen gewählt werden.FIG. 5 shows an improved embodiment of the slot antenna according to FIG. 1.
