Definitions

  • the invention relates to a remote controllable central locking for motor vehicles according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • such antenna arrangements are arranged for a radio-controlled locking system in a motor vehicle, for example in the region of a window opening.
  • the corresponding electronic devices are shipped housed with their components in a housing, together with an antenna.
  • the antenna is designed as a plug-in part which can be plugged into the housing.
  • a remote controllable control unit which comprises a housing with a removable cover. Inside, a wire spool is wound on an oblong cross-sectionally square rod, which serves as an antenna.
  • An arrangement comprising a receiver and a receiving antenna of a remote-controlled system is known to be known, wherein the receiver is formed on a printed circuit board and the receiving antenna forms an integral part of the conductor structure of the printed circuit board.
  • a generic remote controllable central locking is from the DE 197 13 929 A1 known. It comprises a printed circuit board on which various antenna designs can be formed. On the circuit board itself, a metal housing for receiving the electronics is also provided. According to one embodiment, the antenna used may consist of an inverted-F antenna whose actual antenna conductor runs parallel to the printed circuit board at a distance therefrom. At the end of the parallel antenna rod once a short-circuit connection to the printed circuit board and at a distance to a perpendicular outgoing from the printed circuit board and arranged parallel to the printed circuit board antenna strip extending feed line is provided. The feed position can be adjusted by adjusting the feed line to adjust the input impedance can.
  • an inverted-F antenna is basically in connection with an electrical device also from the US patent US 2001/0045909 R1 as known to remove.
  • This antenna should be used in a mobile phone (mobile phone).
  • the antenna is likewise arranged at a distance from a substrate, wherein a short-circuit line is provided between the antenna structure extending parallel to the substrate and the substrate itself, and at the end of the antenna structure, and a feed line is provided for this purpose.
  • Object of the present invention is to provide, starting from the penultimate prior art, an improved remote controllable central locking.
  • the solution according to the invention lies essentially in the fact that, in the case of a remotely controllable central locking according to the preamble of claim 1, an antenna is used which is formed from an inverted-F antenna which is provided as a conductive layer on a base plate designed as a printed circuit board.
  • the base plate formed as a printed circuit board is stiff, so it consists of a dimensionally stable carrier. It is also possible that the antenna on the support (ie on the base plate consisting of a printed circuit board) in the form of a stripline arrangement (Stripline) is formed.
  • the actual antenna itself is not protected by the housing in which the remote central locking module is housed.
  • the overall resulting size is smaller, which allows installation of the remote-controlled central locking in a small space available space in the motor vehicle.
  • the antenna is not connectable as a plug-in module to the central locking, but firmly and permanently connected to the central locking.
  • a compact uniformly manageable unit is formed, in which the antenna comes to lie in a fixed spatial allocation to the module and therefore always the same installation conditions can be realized on site.
  • the antenna is formed along the carrier in a predetermined path along.
  • the antenna can preferably be provided extending even around parts of the housing running around, for example in the manner of a U in plan view.
  • the remotely controllable central locking system for motor vehicles comprises an antenna which is formed on a carrier material, for example in the sense of a substrate, fixedly connected thereto, for example in the form of a stripline arrangement.
  • the stripline may optionally be formed following different paths.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view of a combination device 1 shown, which represents a remote controllable central locking.
  • This combined device 1 consists of an electrical device 3, ie in the illustrated embodiment of a remote central locking module 3, which is usually constructed in a housing 5 or on a support 5 'fixed.
  • the combination device 1 comprises an antenna 7, which in the embodiment shown in a schematic plan view FIG. 1 may consist of a wire, a strand or a pipe, hollow tube, etc.
  • the antenna 7 is preferably plug-free in the electrical device. 3 led in and contacted there electrically.
  • the entire arrangement of the electrical device 3 with its housing 5, which may also be formed as a housing shell 5 is provided with the antenna 7 on a common base plate 5 ', ie generally on a support 5' or mounted.
  • a common base plate 5 ' ie generally on a support 5' or mounted.
  • This assembly 13 can then be installed in a motor vehicle accordingly, wherein via a terminal 15 on the housing 5, a corresponding electrical connection for the output of the demodulated data signal is available, to ultimately e. to operate the central locking.
  • FIG. 2 Based on FIG. 2 is shown in a schematic perspective view of a modified embodiment.
  • the carrier 5 'or the base plate 5' may also be part of a cover for the housing 5 for receiving the electrical device 3.
  • the carrier 5 'or the base plate 5' is then dimensioned larger in plan view than the actual housing 5 or the housing shell 5. As in FIG. 3 is indicated, this results in a laterally over the housing shell 5 projecting portion 5 "of the support 5 'or the base plate 5', about which now again the antenna 7, for example, in the form of a wire or a strand fixed prepositioned can be laid again holding-fixing nipple 9 or webs 9 provided so that the wire is inserted here and kept permanently fixed.
  • the antenna element for example, can still be laid at least once again by a certain distance along a further kink 21 on the front side of the housing.
  • FIGS. 3a and 3b is a variation too FIG. 3 shown.
  • the antenna 7 is laid substantially on the longitudinal side of the housing 5 parallel to this side of the housing on the support or base plate 5 '.
  • FIG. 3a is a side view of the housing along the arrow 10 in FIG FIG. 3 reproduced, but with that deviation too FIG. 3 in that the antenna 7 is laid on the upper side of the housing 5 along the upper side.
  • the antenna is routed to the bottom of the case, as well In these cases, in turn, corresponding nipples or webs 9 are provided for fixing the antenna or the antenna strand.
  • an inverted-F antenna 7 has been used, otherwise the laying of the antenna element 7 largely according to this example Figures 2 and 3 equivalent.
  • the antenna 7 may also be formed as a strip conductor element or as a back-loaded conductive antenna element, which may have a variety of shapes.
  • the antenna 7 is a rectangular basic structure, selected comparable to a meandering structure.
  • FIG. 6 Based on FIG. 6 a modified embodiment is shown, in which the base plate 5 'extends on all sides over the housing 5 away, so that on this base plate 5' and a dipole antenna 7 can be grown.
  • the device according to the invention ultimately comprises an inverted-F antenna, as basically based on FIG. 4 is explained, but in deviation to FIG. 4 as based on FIG. 5 basically described, is formed as a stripline arrangement or as by etching back-loaded conductive antenna element.
