- the antenna cover 1 2 projects inside the protective cover 1 8;
- the top cover 1 3 touches the roof 20, inside the passenger compartment 21.
- the operator fixes the protective cover assembly 1 8, antenna housing 1 1 on the roof 20, thanks to the primary inserts 1 81, the fixing holes 201 and the secondary inserts 131, via the fixing screws 31.
- the fixing screw 31 is already screwed into the secondary insert 1 31 when the operator receives the antenna housing 1 1.
- the operator screws the fixing screw 31 so that the pilot nozzle 1 2 fits into the primary insert 81.
- the operator continues the screwing (illustrated by the force F2) so that his threaded zone 310 begins to screw into the screw thread 1 81 0 of the primary insert 1 81 and that its smooth zone 31 1 fits into the secondary insert 131.
- the operator completely screws the fixing screw 31 so that its threaded zone 31 0 is completely inserted into the primary insert 81.
- the head 313 of the fixing screw 31 presses on the upper cover 1 3 (in particular on the protruding part 1 35) and makes it possible to bring the antenna housing 1 1 of the roof 20.
- a portion of the roof 20 is thus sandwiched between the protective cover 18 and the antenna housing 1 1.
- the fixing screw 31 cooperating with the primary insert 181 and the secondary insert 131 makes it possible to fix the antenna casing 1 1 which supports the antenna cover 12 and the primary antenna 15, as well as the protective cover 18 on the roof 20.
- the whole of the antenna module (s) 1 is thus fixed correctly on the roof 20.
- FIG. 9 illustrates a section of the antenna module assembly (s) fixed to the roof 20 of the motor vehicle 2 by means of the fixing screws 31. Note that the operator can very easily dismantle the antenna housing 1 1 of the roof 20 by unscrewing the fixing screws 31.
- an aesthetic cover 19, illustrated in the section of Figure 10, can be arranged on the roof 20 so as to cover the protective cover 18.
- the electronic unit 1 1 is a computer of the motor vehicle 2.
- the body 20 of the motor vehicle 2 is the attachment reference 18.
- the body 20 comprises said at least one primary insert 181 described above and the electronic unit 1 1 of the electronic module 1 is fixed on said body 20.
- the electronic module 1 may comprise only the electronic unit 1 1 comprising said at least one secondary insert 181 described above, or may also include a protective cover, a primary antenna 15 and a hood antenna 12 projecting through said body.
- the dashboard of the motor vehicle 2 is the attachment reference 18.
- the dashboard comprises said at least one primary insert 181 described above and the electronic unit 1 1 of the module electronics 1 is fixed on said dashboard.
- the electronic module 1 comprises in one example non-limiting, only the electronic unit 1 1 comprising said at least one secondary insert 1 31 previously described. It does not include a protective cover or primary antenna 1 5 or antenna cover 1 2 projecting through said body.
- the body 20 of the motor vehicle 2 on which the antenna module (s) 1 is mounted may be the bodywork of a tailgate of a motor vehicle 2 or a trunk of a motor vehicle 2.
- the electronic unit 1 1 may comprise more than two secondary inserts 1 31 and the attachment reference 1 8 may comprise more than two corresponding primary inserts 1 81.
- the electronic box 1 1 may comprise three secondary inserts 131.
- the primary insert 81 is partly threaded. It has a threaded zone and a smooth zone.
