Claims.
The present invention relates to stand-off insulators and, particularly, to such insulators adapted to support an antenna in spaced relation to a conductive surface, such as the body of an automobile.
Stand-off insulators heretofore proposed for mounting antennas on thin rigid surfaces, such as the top or side of an automobile, have required the use of an excessively complex construction involving an unduly large number of structural components. They have thus been not only unduly expensive to manufacture but also have been expensive to install since they require an exces- 'When the antenna is mounted on the top or side of an automobile, the previously proposed arrangements have frequently made it necessary to mutilate a significant portion of an inner protective and decorative fabric, particularly when the antenna is mounted on the top of the automobile.
It is an object of the present invention, therefore, to provide a new and improved stand-oil. insulator which avoids one or more of the disadvantages and limitations of prior such insulators.
It is-a further object of the invention to provide a stand-cit insulator which is very simple in construction and is easily, readily and quickly installed with both a minimum of effort and of the number of tools required.
It is an additional object of the invention to provide a new and improved stand-oil insulator which when mounted on a ground plane may be installed from one side only thereof.
It is still an additional object of the invention to provide. in an antenna installation for a vehicle, a stand-off insulator having a novel securing means.
It is yet another object of the invention to provide a stand-off insulator which employs a minimum number of simple and inexpensive electrical and mechanical parts.
In accordance with the invention, a stand-oif insulator for supporting an antenna in insulated spaced. relation to the surface of a conductive member of sheet material comprises an externally threaded mounting structure which includes a projecting portion provided adjacent one end thereof with a plurality of peripherally spaced latch elements. These latch elements are transversely movable to permit the insertion of the one end of the projecting portion through an aperture in the conductive member and thereafter to latch the projecting portion in the aperture. The stand-off insulator also comprises an insulator structure which includes means for securing the insulator structure to the mounting structure. One of these structures includes a member threaded onto the threaded mounting structure for clamping the conductive member between the latch elements and the last-mentioned member. The stand-off insulator further includes means for supporting the antenna from the insulator structure.
For a better understanding of the present invention, together with other and further objects thereof, reference is had to the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, and its scope will be pointed out in the appended claims.
In the drawing, Fig. 1 is an elevational view partially in cross section showing a stand-oi! insulator embodying the invention; Fig. 2 is a detail view of a sleeve element utilized in the insulator arrangement; and Fig. 3 illustrates a slightly modified form of the present invention.
Referring now more particulalry to Fig. 1 of the drawing, the stand-off insulator is utilized to support an antenna II in insulated spaced relation to the surface of a conductive member l2 0! sheet material which may, for example, be the top of an automobile. A coaxial transmission line l3 leading from a wave-signal apparatus, not shown, is coupled to the antenna H. The insulator arrangement comprises a mounting structure M which includes a hollow cylindrical metal sleeve IS, the constructional features of which are more clearly apparent from Fig. 2 of the drawing, having on one end thereof a. collar ll of frusto-conical configuration. The sleeve IS with its collar i1 is longitudinally slotted over the major portion of its length to provide a plurality of circumferentially spaced resilient fingers l8. The slotted segments of the collar I1 thus provide on the remote end of each 01' the fingers l8 a wedge-shaped latch element 19 with a shoulder 20 facing the other end of the sleeve. The fingers l8 are resiliently movable transversely of a longitudinal axis common to the fingers to permit the insertion of the fingers l8 through an aperture 2! provided in the conductive sheet member l2. An externally threaded sleeve member 22 is press fitted over that end of the sleeve 15 which is remote from the latch elements is.
The stand-of! insulator also includes a hollow insulator structure 23 having means for securing the insulator structure 23 to the mounting structure H. The means last mentioned may, for example, comprise internal threads 24 provided on a. dome-shaped insulator I. One of the along a longitudinal axis of the mounting structure H for causing the latch elements l9 firmly to secure the projecting portion of the mounting structure including the fingers l8 thereof in the aperture 2|. In the arrangement disclosed, the means last mentioned is a part of the mounting structure I4 and comprises a clamping member 25 internally and externally threaded, this member being threaded onto the sleeve member 22 to clamp the conductive member l2 between the shoulders 20 of the latch elements l9 and the clamping member 25. The elements 22 and 25 each have provision made for holding them with a wrench in order that the member 25 may be suitably tightened down. The mounting structure l4 also includes a hollow sleeve member 26, which is insertable into the hollow projecting portion of the sleeve l5 after the insertion of this portion within the aperture 2|, to restrain the latch elements l9 against further transverse movement.
The transmission line l3 extends through the sleeve I5 of the mounting structure I4 and an internally threaded and apertured conductive cap member 21 is threaded onto the sleeve member 22 of the mounting structure mechanically to clamp and electrically to connect the outer conductor 28 of the coaxial transmission line l3 to the mounting structure.
The internally threaded insulator I is threaded the insulator I. The sleeve 3| has a flange 33 at.
one end to engage the interior surface of the insulator I and a flange 34 intermediate its ends to engage the exterior surface of the insulator I.
An outer end of the sleeve 3| carries a threaded portion 35 for receiving an internally threaded conductive cap member 36 which is integral with the antenna H and secures the latter to the coupling structure 30. The sleeve 3! is radially slotted to receive the bent-over end of the transmission-line inner conductor 29 and also has an external circumferential groove at this end so that the end ofthe conductor 29 can be wound around to lie in this groove and thereby be securely clamped between the sleeve 3! and cap member 36. The coupling structure 30 thus not only serves to support the antenna II on the insulator structure 23, but also serves electrically to connect the inner conductor 29 of the transmission line I3 to the antenna l I.
The mounting structure M preferably includes 'a metallic washer 31 interposed between the clamping member 25 and the upper side of the conductive member l2. A rubber gasket 38 preferably is interposed between the broad base of the insulator I and the top surface of the conductive member l2 to provide a watertight joint therebetween.
The method of assembly of the stand-oil insulator is best described by starting with the mounting structure M. The hole 2| is first drilled or otherwise formed in the conductive member l2. After assembling the washer 31 on the end of the metal sleeve 15, the latter is then inserted into the hole 2| sufdciently far that the shoulders 20 of the latch elements I! engage the underside of the member I2. The sleeve member 26 is next forced downwardly into the sleeve l5 to prevent further inward flexing of the flexible fingers iii. The clamping member 25 is now threaded onto the externally threaded member 22 firmly to clamp the shoulders 20 of the latching element II against the underside of the conductive member i2. Then the coaxial transmission line I3 is prepared for insertion upwardly within the sleeve 26, the outer conductor 28 of the transmission line'being bent outwardly over the top'portions of the elements it, 22, and 26. The inner conductor 29, with its insulation thereon, is now inserted through the aperture of the cap 21 and the latter is threaded into the member 22 to clamp the line outer conductor 28 to the mounting structure l4.
After positioning the rubber gasket 38 and inserting the inner conductor 29 of the transmission. line through the sleeve 3! of the coupling structure 30, the insulator structure 23 is next screwed onto the member 25 and tightened down against the member H2. The internal conductor 29 is next wound around the groove in the end of the sleeve 31 and the cap 36 is screwed onto the portion 35 of the latter to .complete the assembly.
The novel stand-off insulator described pro- Vides a rigid construction for supporting an antenna in insulated spaced relation to the surface of a conductive member, ensures a positive electrical connection between the external conductor of a coaxial cable and the conductive member, and further ensures a positive electrical connection between the inner conductor of the transmission line and the antenna. All the parts of the assembly are simple in construction, easily installed and readily replaceable. The broadbase insulator structure 23 provides ample rigidity for the antenna i I in a transverse direction.
Two stand-oil insulators having substantially the construction above described may be utilized to support a vertical antenna in insulated spaced relation to the side 39 of an automobile as shown in Fig. 3, elements of Fig. 3; which correspond to similar elements of Fig. 1 being designated by the same reference numerals. In the instant arrangement, the coupling structure 33 is formed with a transverse bore 40 and a setscrew M may be used to hold the antenna i l in a fixed position relative to the insulator structure 23.
It will be apparent from the above description of the invention that a stand-01f insulator embodying the invention has the advantage that it is possible to mount an antenna on a conductive surface by operations performed from one side only of the latter. Such installation requires a minimum number of simple tools and can be accomplished in a very short period of time by an unskilled person. The stand-off insulator of the present invention has the additional advantage that it not only provides a very rigid mounting for an antenna but one which may be readily waterproofed. Further, positiveand secure electrical connections between an associated transmission =line and both the antenna and its supporting conductive surface member are assured. The stand-off insulator is simple in construction and involves only a comparatively few inexpensive components easily manufactured in quantity.
While there have been described what are at present considered to be the preferred embodiments of this invention, it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that various changes and modiflcations may be made therein without departing from the invention, and it is, therefore, aimed to cover all such changes and modifications as fall within the true spirit and scope of the invention.
