Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a mounting assembly with which a motor vehicle antenna can be attached to the body of a motor vehicle.
  • an antenna base is applied to the outside of the body, wherein the antenna base extends with a screw through a body opening into the interior of the body onto which a nut is screwed for attachment and tension with the body, as for example in the EP 1 120 853 B1 is described.
  • the screwed variant proves to be disadvantageous in that additional tool, such as a wrench is required to screw the nut on the screw socket.
  • additional tool such as a wrench
  • the assembly in the screwed variant designed as difficult since the antenna socket must first be arranged on the outside loose on the body before an assembly person from the inside can screw the said nut so that there is a risk that the antenna socket moves in the meantime, which is why often two assemblers for mounting such screwed Antenna socket is required, one of which holds the antenna base and the other makes the sterbefest Trent.
  • the antenna cables protrude directly vertically into the interior of the body, which is why they must be bent over for laying, which can cause cable breaks.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a mounting assembly for mounting a motor vehicle antenna to the body of a motor vehicle, which overcomes at least some of the problems indicated.
  • the object is achieved with a mounting assembly, which has the features of claim 1.
  • the object is achieved in that the protruding from the foot plate mounting portion has a support portion which is spaced from the base plate by a clearance, and in that the locking body has a locking portion which is wedged in said distance between base plate and body in that the foot plate is braced against the bodywork.
  • the latch portion may, for example act include a ramp or wedge portion act, which is inserted with its tapered side ahead in the said distance and thus is supported at deeper penetration into the clear distance to one on the support portion and the other on the inside of the body, whereby the attachment portion on the support section is pulled deeper into the interior of the body, so that the foot plate of the mounting assembly is clamped to the body.
  • the assembly assembly according to the invention can also be easily removed by removing the locking portion, so that it is not necessary to destroy parts of the assembly assembly for maintenance purposes.
  • the mounting assembly may include an adapter plate to be disposed inside the body, which may have at least one first electrical terminal that connects to at least one electrical mating terminal projecting from the footplate into the interior of the body.
  • the locking body of the mounting assembly may be movably mounted on the adapter plate such that it can be wedged repeatedly in the distance, guided on an identical trajectory.
  • the relative position of the latch section located on the latch body with respect to the attachment section or its support section is accurate by the coupling of the first electrical connection with the associated mating connection set so that no errors during assembly with regard to the placement of the at least one latch portion with respect to the associated attachment portion may occur.
  • This can prove to be advantageous in particular when bolt bodies with mutually differently shaped bolt sections are used, since thus unintentional swapping of the different bolt sections can be avoided.
  • the reproducibility of the assembly can be further improved in particular by the movable mounting of the locking body on the adapter plate, as a result of incorrect assembly, such as a tilting the ramp-shaped Riegelababitess, can be excluded.
  • the adapter plate may have at least a second electrical connection, which branches off in the plane of the adapter plate of the same.
  • Each of these (second) terminals may, for example, be connected via a conductor plate to an associated first electrical terminal of the adapter plate, which is coupleable to a mating terminal on the foot plate, so that there is a rigid connection between the first and second electrical terminals, which in contrast to the bent cable in the screwed variant is not subject to movements, which otherwise could lead to cable break over time.
  • the locking body can be pivotally mounted on the adapter plate via a hinge.
  • a lever effect can be achieved via this joint, by means of which the locking portion can be wedged with little effort in the clear distance between the support portion and the body.
  • the latch portion due to the pivotal movement of the latch body without occurrence of any clamps in the clearance and can be wedged therein, the latch portion of the latch body can form a pivot wedge with a receptacle for the support portion of the mounting portion.
  • the locking portion may have a concave and convexly curved wedge shape, which here is a partially tapered shape which is curved in such a way that one of the two opposite wedge surfaces a concave curvature as a receptacle for the support portion, whereas the other wedge surface has a convex curvature as a sliding surface.
  • the pivoting of the locking portion in the clearance between the support portion and the body can be achieved in particular in that the locking portion is arranged on the pivot axis of the joint, so that the locking portion is pivoted during the pivotal movement of the locking body about its own axis.
  • the locking body can have an actuating lever, by the actuation of which the locking element experiences a torque. So it is not necessary to apply the locking body or its locking portion directly with a correspondingly large torque; Rather, this torque can be achieved by a small force is applied to the operating lever, so that multiplied by the lever arm or its length can be achieved a correspondingly enhanced moment.
  • the base plate may have at least one spring element.
  • at least one spring element protruding into the interior of the body can protrude from the foot plate, which has a shape such that it can be detachably latched in an opening in the body.
  • the foot plate can be releasably fixed in abutment with the outside of the body, so that no second assembler is required to prevent slippage of the foot plate during assembly.
  • the spring element may be, for example, a barb-like catch, which initially deforms slightly when inserted into the opening of the body, in order to releasably lock it to the contour of the body opening. In this way, a simple disassembly can be ensured in the maintenance case, without additional tools is required.
  • the base plate may have a protruding tubular connecting piece, in the interior of which the mating connections of the base plate are located, so that damaging effects can be largely avoided.
  • the connecting piece can also serve as a guide which cooperates with a corresponding counterpart on the adapter plate in order to be able to combine these according to a plug connection.
  • the previously mentioned spring element may be provided on the connection piece. Apart from that, however, it is also possible to form the spring element on the projecting into the interior of the body mounting portions. By such an integral design of the spring elements on the one hand weight and on the other hand costs can be saved due to the lower material cost.
  • the adapter plate may comprise at least one sliding portion arranged such that when the base plate is braced, the locking portion slides with its convex sliding surface therealong.
  • the sliding portion may for example be made of a material or at least coated with it, which has a very low coefficient of friction, as is the case for example with Teflon ® (PTFE).
  • the mounting assembly may further comprise a housing cap for housing the electronic components of the antenna which is detachable with the foot plate connected is. The entire unit of foot plate and the associated housing cap can thereby attach as a whole during assembly of the mounting assembly to the body, whereby the assembly can be accelerated.
  • the housing cap For receiving the base plate, the housing cap may have such an adapted to the shape of the foot plate opening for receiving the base plate that is closed by the base plate, the interior of the housing cap to the outside.
  • the housing cap may be provided with a rubber coating, which forms a projecting over the opening of the housing cap sealing lip.
  • This sealing lip comes in the assembly of the base plate or the unit of base plate and housing cap into contact with the outside of the body and thus seals the interior of the housing cap from the outside atmosphere, so that moisture can not penetrate into the interior of the housing cap.
  • the mounting assembly 10 has a base plate 24 which externally comes into contact with the body 26. Furthermore, the mounting assembly 10 has a latch body 30, which is located inside the body 26 and serves to clamp the base plate 24 to the body 26. Also in the interior of the body 26, an adapter plate 28 is arranged, on which the locking body 30 via a hinge, such as a hinge connection is pivotally mounted (see in particular Figs. 4 and 5).
  • the mounting assembly 10 includes a housing cap 12, in the interior of which come to be accommodated by the base plate 24 electronic components 16 to 22.
  • These electronic components 16 to 22 may be, for example, a mobile radio antenna 16, a GPS electronic component 18, a printed circuit board 20, and electronic SMD components soldered directly to the printed circuit board 20 act.
  • the housing cap 12 has an opening 13 on the underside, in order to be able to receive the foot plate 24 therein. Between the foot plate 24 and the opening 13 of the housing cap 12, an inner seal 14 is arranged to prevent any ingress of moisture into the interior of the housing cap 12.
  • the actual housing cap 24 is provided with a rubber coating 34, which forms a projecting over the opening 13 of the housing cap 12 and circumferential sealing lip 35. With this sealing lip 35, the housing cap 12 rests with the base plate 24 received by it on the body 26, so that a second sealing barrier is created by the sealing lip 35 in addition to the inner seal 14.
  • the unit of housing cap 12 and base plate 24 together with the electronic components 16 to 22 received therefrom can be assembled in an upstream assembly step, as illustrated in FIG.
  • the unit of housing cap 12 and base plate 24 together with the electronic components 16 to 22 received therefrom can be assembled in an upstream assembly step, as illustrated in FIG.
  • first of all the electronic components 16 to 22 are mounted on the base plate 24, so that it can then be inserted together with the inner seal 14 into the opening 13 of the housing cap 12 in order subsequently to be screwed thereto. This state is shown in the right-hand illustration of FIG. 2.
  • two fastening sections 36 protrude from the underside of the foot plate 24, of which only one can be seen in FIGS. 1 and 2 due to the perspective illustration is.
  • cylindrical support portions 37 from right angles, which are opposite to the Bottom of the base plate 24 are spaced by a clearance.
  • the support portions 37 serve to cooperate with the already mentioned latch portions, so that the base plate 24 is clamped against the body 26.
  • the attachment portions 36 protrude through an opening 32 in the body 26 into the interior thereof, to be acted upon there by the locking body 30 with a tensile force into the interior of the body 26.
  • connection piece 38 receives in the figures not shown in more detail electrical connection pins, which serve to connect the electronic components 16 to 22 with a receiver inside the body 26.
  • the locking body 30 has a substantially E-shaped configuration with two outer arms 40 and one inner arm 42.
  • the inner arm 42 is provided at its free distal end with two hinge or pivot pin 44, by means of which the locking body 30 can be pivotally connected to the adapter plate 28.
  • the pivot pins 44 thus define a pivot axis about which the latch body 30 can be pivoted with respect to the adapter plate 28, as best seen in the illustrations of FIGS. 8 to 10 can be removed.
  • the locking body 30 is provided with pivoting wedges in the form of concave and convexly curved locking portions 54 extending in extension of the pivot pins 44 are located on the pivot axis defined by these.
  • pivoting wedges in the form of concave and convexly curved locking portions 54 extending in extension of the pivot pins 44 are located on the pivot axis defined by these.
  • the adapter plate 28 For fastening the locking body 30 to the adapter plate 28, it has corresponding hinge openings 46 (FIG. 4) into which the pivot pins 44 engage, as shown in FIG. 5 and in particular the detail A of FIG.
  • the adapter plate 28 has three electrical connection sockets 48 (FIG. 6) for making electrical connection with the connection pins (not shown) already mentioned above, which protrude from the foot plate 24 into the interior of the body 26.
  • connection sockets 48 three strip-shaped conductor plates 15 extend in the plane of the adapter plate 28 to the edge region to the outside, where they branch off in the form of three terminals 58 in the plane of the adapter plate 28 thereof. In this way, the connection cable between a receiver and the antenna can be laid without having to be bent over.
