Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a control device for receiving and processing radio signals in a vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, vehicles are generally configured to communicate with satellites, communication networks, transportation infrastructure devices, and / or other vehicles via radio waves, such as through mobile radio, satellite radio, or WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network). V2X communication is becoming increasingly important. Also known as vehicle-to-everything communication, Car2X communication, or vehicle-to-X communication, V2X allows the exchange of information and data between its participants. The participants in V2X communication are primarily traffic users and transportation infrastructure devices. Communication between V2X participants is conducted via radio signals, which are exchanged between participants using, for example, ITS-G5 / DSRC (Dedicated Short Range Communication) or in mobile radio networks, such as through PC5 interfaces or Uu interfaces.

[0003] In order to communicate via radio waves, vehicles require corresponding transmitting units, receiving units, and / or combined transmitting and receiving units, which have antennas for transmitting and / or receiving radio signals. Services such as mobile radio, satellite broadcasting, and WLAN, in particular, use different radio frequencies and therefore require different antennas. To use these various services, vehicles therefore require multiple antennas, structural space for the antennas, and components for processing the radio signals received by the antennas. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a device for transmitting and / or receiving radio signals in a vehicle, which is particularly improved in terms of structural space.

[0005] According to this utility model, this objective is achieved through multiple technical solutions of the control device according to this utility model.

[0006] The advantageous embodiments of this utility model are the subject of other advantageous improvements.

[0007] According to this invention, this objective is achieved by a control device for receiving and processing radio signals in a vehicle, the control device comprising:

[0008] - The housing, which has an upper side made of plastic;

[0009] - A main printed circuit board disposed within the housing, the main printed circuit board having components for processing radio signals and contact surfaces for electrical contact; and

[0010] - Antenna, which is arranged on the inner surface of the upper side of the housing and is formed of a metal plate, wherein,

[0011] The antenna has an antenna surface and a connection contact point, which has a spring-loaded contact finger that contacts the contact surface of the main printed circuit board.

[0012] - The antenna is securely fixed to the upper side of the housing in a form-fitting manner.

[0013] According to this invention, at least one antenna is thus integrated into a vehicle's control unit for processing radio signals. Integrating the antenna into the control unit achieves a space-saving and low-cost implementation of both the control unit and the antenna used for it, since the control unit and antenna are not implemented as separate components.

[0014] Furthermore, the antenna is positioned on the inner surface of the upper side of the housing, which is made of plastic. The inner surface of the upper side of the housing refers to the upper surface facing the space enclosed by the housing. Positioning the antenna on the upper side of the housing improves radio wave reception compared to placing it inside the housing, on the lower side, or on a side surface, for example, when the upper side of the housing is positioned below the roof of the vehicle, because the radio waves received by the antenna are less attenuated or interfered with by the housing. The upper side of the housing is made of plastic, which prevents radio waves from being shielded by the upper side of the housing.

[0015] Furthermore, the antenna is formed from a metal plate. Specifically, the antenna surface and the antenna connection contacts can be formed as a single piece from the metal plate, with the contact points making contact with the contact surface of the main printed circuit board. This simplifies antenna manufacturing and improves its robustness compared to separate implementations of the antenna surface, connection contacts, and / or at least one contact element for connecting the connection contacts to the main printed circuit board, because no electrical connection is required between the antenna surface, connection contacts, and contact elements; therefore, such a connection is not susceptible to damage or affected or rendered unusable due to other reasons such as contamination or aging. By being formed from a metal plate, the antenna surface can also be made flat, thus saving space.

[0016] The spring-elastic configuration of the contact fingers advantageously allows for compensation of slight displacements between the connection contacts and the main printed circuit board relative to each other, such as displacements caused by thermal expansion and contraction. Furthermore, the spring-elastic configuration of the contact fingers facilitates the connection between the connection contacts and the contact surfaces of the main printed circuit board, as it eliminates the need for precise positioning of the connection contacts and contact surfaces relative to each other for connection purposes.

[0017] The antenna's form-fit fastening on the upper side of the housing includes, for example, thermal riveting, locking, or snap-fit ​​connections. This form-fit fastening prevents displacement of the antenna relative to the main printed circuit board.

[0018] According to this invention, this objective is also achieved by a control device for receiving and processing radio signals in a vehicle, the control device comprising:

[0019] - The housing, which has an upper side made of plastic;

[0020] - A main printed circuit board disposed in the housing, the main printed circuit board having components for processing radio signals and contact surfaces for electrical contact; and

[0021] - Antenna, which is arranged on the inner surface of the upper side of the housing and is formed of a metal plate, wherein,

[0022] The antenna has an antenna surface and a connection contact point, which has a spring-loaded contact finger that contacts the contact surface of the main printed circuit board.

[0023] - The antenna is connected to the upper side of the housing using a material fit method.

[0024] The material fit between the antenna and the upper side of the housing includes, for example, molding or injection molding the antenna or a portion thereof into the upper side of the housing, or adhesive bonding between the antenna and the upper side of the housing. Molding or injection molding the antenna or a portion thereof into the upper side of the housing achieves the connection of the antenna to the upper side of the housing during the housing manufacturing process, for example, by injection molding the antenna into the housing in the case of injection molding the housing or a portion thereof. Adhesive bonding between the antenna and the upper side of the housing is achieved, for example, through an adhesive layer or tape on the antenna.

[0025] The antenna, for example, includes a first antenna surface and a second antenna surface, which are spaced apart from the first antenna surface and have no contact points. The second antenna surface functions here as a so-called parasitic element of the antenna, while the first antenna surface is an "active" antenna surface.

[0026] Parasitic elements of an antenna are passive elements that are excited by electromagnetic coupling with the electromagnetic fields surrounding the antenna. The parasitic elements themselves generate electromagnetic fields, which are superimposed on other electromagnetic fields around the antenna. By appropriately shaping and arranging these parasitic elements, the directional characteristics and spectrum of the electromagnetic radiation received and / or emitted by the antenna can be influenced, for example.

[0027] According to this invention, this objective is also achieved by a control device for receiving and processing radio signals in a vehicle, the control device comprising:

[0028] - A housing having an upper side made of plastic and a lower side made of plastic;

[0029] - A main printed circuit board arranged in the housing, the main printed circuit board having elements for processing radio signals and resilient contact elements having conductive surfaces for electrical contact;

[0030] - A first antenna, which is disposed on the inner surface of the upper side of the housing and is formed of a metal plate; and

[0031] - The second antenna, which is arranged on the inner surface of the lower side of the housing and formed by a metal plate, wherein,

[0032] - The first and second antennas are each tightly fixed to the inside of the housing in a shape-fitting manner.

[0033] Therefore, antennas are arranged on the housing of the control device using the inner surfaces of its upper and lower sides. The two antennas differ from each other, for example, in the dimensions of their antenna surfaces and thus in the frequencies of radio waves they can receive with high sensitivity, such as for receiving radio waves from different services, such as mobile radio, satellite radio, or WLAN. The antennas are secured to the inner side of the housing by form-fitting methods, including, for example, thermal riveting or snap-fit ​​connections. Resilient contact elements on the main printed circuit board are electrically connected to each of the two antennas.

[0034] According to this invention, this objective is also achieved by a control device for receiving and processing radio signals in a vehicle, the control device comprising:

[0035] - A housing having an upper side made of plastic and a lower side made of plastic;

[0036] - A main printed circuit board arranged in the housing, the main printed circuit board having elements for processing radio signals and resilient contact elements having conductive surfaces for electrical contact;

[0037] - A first antenna, which is disposed on the inner surface of the upper side of the housing and is formed of a metal plate; and

[0038] - The second antenna, which is arranged on the inner surface of the lower side of the housing and formed by a metal plate, wherein,

[0039] - The first and second antennas are each fastened to the inside of the housing using a material matching method.

[0040] The material fit between the antenna and the inner side of the housing includes, for example, molding or injection molding the antenna or antenna components into the inner side of the housing, or adhesive bonding between the antenna and the inner side of the housing. Resilient contact elements on the main printed circuit board are electrically connected, for example, to one of the two antennas.

[0041] According to this invention, this objective is also achieved by a control device for receiving and processing radio signals in a vehicle, the control device comprising:

[0042] - The housing, which has an upper side made of plastic;

[0043] - A main printed circuit board disposed in the housing, the main printed circuit board having elements for processing radio signals and resilient contact elements having conductive surfaces for electrical contact; and

[0044] - Antenna, which is arranged on the inner surface of the upper side of the housing and is formed of a metal plate, wherein,

[0045] The antenna has an antenna surface and a connection contact point, which has a rigid connector, and

[0046] - Connect the contact point to the elastic contact element electrically.

[0047] For example, the rigid connector of the antenna's connection point contacts the elastic contact element of the main printed circuit board (PCB) and thereby electrically connects the antenna to the PCB. The elastic contact element of the PCB includes, for example, an elastic core made of silicon, and a conductive flexible coating of the core against which the rigid connector of the antenna's connection point abuts. The elastic configuration of the PCB's contact element advantageously allows for compensation of slight displacements between the antenna's connection point and the PCB relative to each other, such as displacements caused by thermal expansion and contraction. Furthermore, the elastic configuration of the PCB's contact element facilitates the connection between the connection point and the contact surface of the PCB, because it eliminates the need for precise positioning of the connection point and contact surface relative to each other for connection purposes.

[0048] According to this invention, this objective is also achieved by a control device for receiving and processing radio signals in a vehicle, the control device comprising:

[0049] - The housing, which has an upper side made of plastic;

[0050] - A main printed circuit board arranged in the housing, the main printed circuit board having components for processing radio signals and contact sockets for electrical contact; and

[0051] - Antenna, which is arranged on the inner surface of the upper side of the housing and is formed of a metal plate, wherein,

[0052] The antenna has an antenna surface and a connection contact point, which has a rigid connector, and

[0053] - Connect the contact points to the contact socket for electrical connection.

[0054] The rigid connector of the antenna's connection point functions as a plug, which is inserted into the contact socket of the main printed circuit board and thereby electrically connects the antenna to the main printed circuit board. Attached Figure Description

[0065] Corresponding parts are labeled with the same reference numerals in the figures. For better understanding, each figure is drawn with a Cartesian coordinate system containing x, y, and z coordinates.

[0066] Figure 1 and Figure 2 A control device 100 for receiving and processing radio signals in a vehicle, according to the present invention, is shown. Figure 1A cross-sectional view of the control device 100 in the first section is shown.

[0067] Figure 2 A cross-sectional view of the control device 100 in a second section perpendicular to the first section is shown. The control device 100 includes a housing 103, a main printed circuit board 105, and an antenna 107.

[0068] The housing 103 has a lower housing portion 109 and a upper housing portion 110. The lower housing portion 109 forms the lower side 111 of the housing 103 and the lower section of the side surface 113 of the housing 103 protruding from the lower side 111. The upper housing portion 110 forms the upper section of the side surface 113 of the housing 103 and the upper side 108 of the housing 103.

[0069] The lower portion 109 of the housing is made of metal, for example. This allows for good heat dissipation from the housing 103. Furthermore, the metal construction provides a particularly stable implementation for the lower portion 109. The upper portion 110 of the housing is made of plastic. Unlike the upper portion 110, which is made of metal, the plastic construction prevents the upper portion 110 from being electrically shielded from radio waves.

[0070] The main printed circuit board 105 is disposed within the housing 103. The main printed circuit board 105 is connected to the lower side 111 of the housing 103 via a support member 117. The support member 117 may be part of the lower portion 109 of the housing. Electronic components (not shown) for processing radio signals are also disposed on the main printed circuit board 105. Furthermore, the main printed circuit board 105 has a contact surface 118 through which the main printed circuit board 105 and its electronic components can be electrically contacted.

[0071] Antenna 107 is disposed on the inner surface 115 of the upper side 108 of housing 103 and is formed as a single piece of metal plate. The metal plate is made of, for example, spring brass, spring plate or spring strip, chromium nickel steel or stainless steel. Antenna 107 has antenna surface 119 and connection contact point 121, which has spring-loaded contact finger 123.

[0072] The connecting contact 121 bends at a right angle from the antenna surface 119. The contact finger 123 forms the end of the connecting contact 121 that is away from the antenna surface 119. The contact finger 123 extends to the main printed circuit board 105 and contacts the contact surface 118 of the main printed circuit board 105, thereby electrically connecting the antenna 107 to the contact surface 118.

[0073] The antenna 107 is securely fixed to the upper portion 110 of the housing by thermal riveting. For this purpose, the upper portion 110 of the housing has molded cylindrical pins 229 that extend from the inner surface 115 of the upper side 108 of the housing 103 and are each guided through a corresponding opening 231 in the antenna surface 119. The ends of the pins 229 extending from the openings 231 are thermally riveted into rivet heads 133 by force and heat, which hold the antenna surface 119 to the upper side 108 of the housing 103 in a form-fit manner.

The material fit connection between the antenna 107 and the inner surface 115 is achieved by an adhesive layer 334 between the antenna 107 and the inner surface 115. The adhesive layer 334 is, for example, an adhesive layer or tape on the antenna 107.

[0076] Figure 4 It shows a kind of Figure 1 A similar cross-sectional view of a control device 400 for receiving and processing radio signals in a vehicle according to the present invention. The control device 400 also includes a housing 103, a main printed circuit board 105, and an antenna 107.

[0077] Figure 4 The control device 400 shown and Figure 1 and Figure 2 The difference in the control device 100 shown is essentially only that the antenna 107 has two antenna surfaces 119, 435. The first antenna surface 119 is as follows: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The control device 100 shown is formed from a single piece of metal plate, with the connecting contact point 121. The second antenna surface 435 is arranged spaced apart from the first antenna surface 119 on the inner surface 115 of the upper side 108 of the housing 103 and does not have a connecting contact point. The second antenna surface 435 functions as a parasitic element of the antenna 107. The two antenna surfaces 119 and 435 are as follows... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The antenna surface 119 of the control device 100 shown is connected to the inner surface 115 of the upper side 108 of the housing 103 in a form-fit manner by thermal riveting.

[0078] Figure 5 It shows the relationship with Figure 1 A similar cross-sectional view of a control device 500 for receiving and processing radio signals in a vehicle according to the present invention. The control device 500 also includes a housing 103, a main printed circuit board 105, and an antenna 107.

[0079] Figure 5 The control device 500 shown is Figure 3 The difference in the control device 100 shown is essentially only that the antenna 107 has two antenna surfaces 119, 435. The first antenna surface 119 is as follows: Figure 3 The connection contact 121 between the control device 100 and the antenna 107 is formed as a single piece from a metal plate. The second antenna surface 435 is arranged at a distance from the first antenna surface 119 on the inner surface 115 of the upper side 108 of the housing 103 of the control device 500 and does not have a connection contact point. The second antenna surface 435 functions as a parasitic element of the antenna 107. The antenna surfaces 119 and 435 are each connected to the inner surface 115 of the upper side 108 of the housing 103 of the control device 500 via adhesive layers 334 in a material-fit manner. The adhesive layers 334 are, for example, adhesive layers or tape on the antenna surfaces 119 and 435.

[0080] Figure 6 It shows the relationship with Figure 1 A similar cross-sectional view of a control device 600 for receiving and processing radio signals in a vehicle according to the present invention. The control device 600 includes a housing 103, a main printed circuit board 105, a first antenna 107, and a second antenna 637.

[0081] Control device 600 and Figure 1 and Figure 2The control device 100 shown differs in the second antenna 637, its arrangement, and its electrical connection to the main printed circuit board 105. Furthermore, the lower housing 109 of the control device 600 is made of plastic. The second antenna 637 is formed monolithically from a metal sheet and includes an antenna surface 638 and a connecting contact 639 that bends at a right angle from the antenna surface 638. The connecting contact 639 has a rigid connector 641 that forms one end of the connecting contact 639 away from the antenna surface 638 and extends to the main printed circuit board 105. The main printed circuit board 105 has a resilient contact element 643 that contacts the connector 641 of the connecting contact 639. The contact element 643 has a resilient core and a flexible conductive coating over the core. This coating forms the surface of the contact element 643 against which the connector 641 of the connecting contact 639 abuts. The antenna surface 638 is connected to the inner surface 645 of the lower side 108 of the housing 103 of the control device 600 by thermal riveting in a form-fit manner, similar to the connection between the first antenna 107 and the inner surface 115 of the upper side 108 of the housing 103.

[0082] The difference between antennas 107 and 637 lies in the size of their antenna surfaces 119 and 638 and the frequency of the radio waves they receive with high sensitivity.

The control device 700 includes a housing 103, a main printed circuit board 105, a first antenna 107, and a second antenna 637.

[0084] Control device 700 and Figure 6 The only difference between the control device 600 and the control device 700 is the fastening of the antennas 107 and 637 to the housing 103 of the control device 700. Figure 7 In the control device 700 shown, the antenna surfaces 119 and 638 of antennas 107 and 637 are respectively connected to the inner surface 115 of the upper side 108 or the inner surface 645 of the lower side 111 of housing 103 by means of material mating via adhesive layers 334. The adhesive layers 334 are, for example, adhesive layers or tape on the antenna surfaces 119 and 638.

[0086] Figure 8 The control device 800 shown is Figure 1 and Figure 2 The difference in the control device 100 shown is essentially only in the electrical connection between the antenna 107 and the main printed circuit board 105. The antenna 107 includes an antenna surface 119 and a connection contact 121 that bends at a right angle from the antenna surface 119. The connection contact 121 has a rigid connector 641 that forms one end of the connection contact 121 opposite to the antenna surface 119 and extends to the main printed circuit board 105. The main printed circuit board 105 has a resilient contact element 643 that contacts the connector 641 of the connection contact 121. The contact element 643 has a resilient core and a flexible conductive coating over the core. The coating forms the surface of the contact element 643 against which the connector 641 of the connection contact 121 abuts.

[0089] Figure 9 The control device 900 shown is Figure 1 and Figure 2 The difference in the control device 100 shown is essentially only in the electrical connection between the antenna 107 and the main printed circuit board 105. The antenna 107 includes an antenna surface 119 and a connection contact 121 that bends at a right angle from the antenna surface 119.
