  • the basic, but only exemplary structure of the roof antenna 1 includes a bottom plate 3, on which a circuit board 4 is arranged and fixed, wherein the circuit board 4 at least one antenna element, in particular a plurality of antenna elements 5 to 8 for different frequency ranges has.
  • These antenna elements, the circuit board and the bottom plate may, but need not, be covered by an intermediate hood 9.
  • an overcap 10 covers the inner area of the roof antenna 1.
  • the overcap 10 is arranged above the intermediate hood 9 and surrounds it.
  • the intermediate hood 9 is connected, for example via a screw 11, which may also be arranged at several points, with the bottom plate 3. Between the underside of the bottom plate 3 and the surface of the vehicle roof 2, a seal 12, in particular a flat seal, is arranged.
  • the intermediate hood 9 at a central location on a substantially vertically oriented channel 13, in which a locking pin 14 of the hood 10 and a connecting piece 15 is arranged.
  • the connecting piece 15 is provided with a threaded piece 16 and a screw 17.
  • the threaded piece 16 may also be formed on the bottom plate 3 with.
  • the elements 14 to 17 are the fastening means for the bonnet 10, which is supported on the vehicle roof 2 in this embodiment. Alternatively or additionally, it can also be supported on the base plate 3 or (if present) on the intermediate hood 9 of the already mounted roof antenna 1.
  • the assembly of the roof antenna 1 shown in FIG. 1 proceeds as follows:
  • the correspondingly shaped hood 10 with its downwardly pointing latching pin 14 is guided, if present, through the channel 13 of the intermediate hood 9, in the direction of the connecting piece 15 moves.
  • the upper region of the connecting piece 15, that is to say its inner region, corresponds to the end region of the latching pin 14, in particular to its outer contour.
  • the lower peripheral edge of the hood 10 is designed in cross-section slightly thinner than the remaining area of the hood 10, so that a slight but deliberate deformation can take place.
  • the inner contour of the lower comes circumferential edge of the bonnet 10 on the seal 12 for conditioning and deforms them slightly, so that a seal is permanent and reliable.
  • the elements involved 14, 15, 16 are coordinated so that the latching connection between the locking pin 14 and the connecting piece 15 then takes place when the overcap 10 has arrived in its desired position on the vehicle roof 2.
