Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a device for a motor vehicle according to the preamble of claim 1.

[0002] A device for a motor vehicle, which has a housing for accommodating a circuit board and an antenna, is known in a variety of designs from the prior art, in particular from communication units and telematics modules.

[0003] Such devices comprise a housing with a circuit board arranged within the housing, wherein the housing has an upper housing shell and a lower housing shell. The upper housing shell is connected to the lower housing shell. An antenna is also arranged within the housing. After the upper housing shell and the lower housing shell have been assembled, the antenna contacts the circuit board arranged within the housing. To enable contact to be made between the antenna and the circuit board, a contact means is usually soldered onto the circuit board, which is contacted by the antenna, thereby establishing a connection between the antenna and the circuit board.

[0004] A disadvantage of such prior art devices is that the contact between the antenna and the circuit board can be interrupted. In this case, the antenna loses contact with the contact element soldered to the circuit board because the contact element breaks away from the board.

[0005] The present invention is based on the object of providing a device for a motor vehicle, wherein a tear-proof connection between an antenna or an antenna connection of the antenna and a contact means present on a circuit board is made possible.

[0006] According to the invention, this is achieved in a device according to the preamble of claim 1 jointly by the features of the characterizing part of claim 1.

[0007] The invention provides that at least one holding means is arranged on the circuit board, wherein the holding means is connected to the circuit board. Furthermore, at least one contact means is provided, which is received and held in the holding means. The contact means is electrically conductive and is electrically connected to the circuit board by the holding means. The antenna has at least one antenna connection, wherein the antenna connection is electrically connected to the circuit board via the contact means.

[0008] The holding means is a device by which a body can be held temporarily or permanently in a certain position. For example, a contact means is received and held by the holding means. The holding means can be designed such that the holding means partially or completely encloses the body to be held. Furthermore, the holding means serves to connect and contact the body received therein with another body, for example a circuit board. In this case, the holding means is soldered onto a circuit board, with the holding means receiving and holding the contact means inside, thus establishing an electrically conductive connection between the contact means and the circuit board. The holding means can be designed in different shapes, for example round or square.

[0009] A contact means is a means used to establish an electrically conductive connection between two or more electrical components, within circuits, or within components. The contact means represents an electrically conductive connection, for example, between an antenna terminal of the antenna and a circuit board, with the antenna terminal pressing against and making contact with the contact means accommodated in the holding means.

[0010] One advantage is that the holding element firmly attached to the circuit board and the contact element contained therein create a permanent connection between the antenna connector and the circuit board in the event of shocks or vibrations. The antenna connector presses and contacts the contact element contained in the holding element. The holding element prevents the contact element contained and held therein from slipping, thus preventing the antenna connector from losing contact with the circuit board.

[0011] According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the holding means is designed as a sleeve.

[0012] A sleeve can be a solid tubular body that can accommodate another body inside and partially or completely enclose this body. The sleeve can be firmly connected to another body. The cross-section of the sleeve can be rectangular, square, or round, for example.

[0013] A sleeve can also be made from a bending element. The bending element, in the form of a sheet metal surface, which can be made of any type of metal, is produced by forming or joining.

[0014] The sleeve can be designed in such a way that it is partially or completely closed. One or more sides of the sleeve can be open.

[0015] In addition, the sleeve can be made of an electrically conductive material, whereby electrically conductive material is understood to mean all materials such as metal.

[0016] One advantage is that the retaining element is designed as a tubular sleeve, which allows it to be firmly mounted on the circuit board and accommodate and retain a contact element inside. This allows for easy and quick assembly and disassembly of the contact element without damaging the circuit board.

[0017] The sleeve provides guidance for the antenna connector during assembly of the housing top shell to the housing bottom shell, preventing damage to the antenna connector and the contact element and maintaining their integrity. Furthermore, the sleeve ensures that the antenna connector presses onto the contact element housed in the sleeve and makes contact without the antenna connector losing its connection to the contact element.

[0018] Another advantage is that the contact means accommodated in the holding means is reliably contacted by the antenna connection even if the antenna is arranged at different angles in the housing and the antenna connection of the antenna presses and contacts the contact means at different angles without the contact means slipping.

[0019] According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the contact means is held in the interior of the holding means by at least partial mechanical deformation of the holding means.

[0020] Mechanical deformation, also known as deformation or distortion, is the deformation of a body. The basic shape of the body is changed due to external mechanical forces, thus deforming it. Due to the mechanical forces acting on it, the body's cross-section is deformed or at least one of its outer walls is bent.

[0021] One advantage is that by mechanically deforming the holding means, a permanent contact is established between the contact means and, for example, the side walls of the holding means, which are deformed.

[0022] Due to the mechanical deformation, the contact material is held firmly inside the retaining element, thus maintaining its position on the circuit board and preventing it from slipping or even tearing off. Furthermore, the contact material remains elastic against applied compressive forces.

[0023] A further advantage is that by mechanically deforming the retaining element, the contact element contained within it can be mounted and removed from the circuit board quickly and cost-effectively. When removing the contact element, only the retaining element needs to be returned to its original shape.

[0024] According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the side of the holding means facing away from the circuit board is open. At least one tab is arranged on the side of the holding means facing away from the circuit board, wherein the tab partially closes the holding means and holds the contact means inside the holding means by means of the tab.

[0025] A tab can be an integral part of a body, with the tab being flat and capable of being deformed along a bending line. The tab can be attached to the body, for example, the holding means, in such a way that it is mechanically deformed after a contact means is inserted into the holding means, with the tab partially or completely closing an open area of ​​the holding means. For example, two or more tabs can also be provided.

[0026] One advantage is that the at least one tab provided on the retaining means holds the contact element inserted therein after deformation of the tab, thus preventing it from falling out or slipping. Furthermore, the contact element can be easily replaced without damaging or even destroying the retaining means or the contact element contained therein during disassembly. To do so, the tab that closes the retaining means is simply opened again by mechanical deformation and returned to its original shape.

[0027] In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the contact means is held by gluing inside the holding means.

[0028] An advantage over other connection methods is that minimal bonding, such as spot or linear bonding, secures the contact element inside the retaining element after installation to prevent it from falling out. However, the contact element can subsequently be easily removed from the retaining element, removed, and replaced. Furthermore, the contact element remains elastic when the antenna connector presses against it and makes contact, because the contact element is not bonded to the retaining element across its entire surface.

[0029] According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the holding means is made of an electrically conductive material.

[0030] An electrically conductive material from which the holding means is made can be a metal, for example iron, copper, aluminum or silver.

[0031] One advantage is that a larger electrically conductive surface is created between the holding means and the contact means accommodated therein to the circuit board when the antenna connector presses against the contact means and thus against the side walls of the holding means. Another advantage is that a constant electrical connection is established between the various components.

[0032] In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the holding means is soldered onto the circuit board.

[0033] One advantage of this is that the retaining element is firmly soldered to the circuit board, thus providing a tear-proof connection for the contact element contained within it, for example, against compressive forces exerted by the antenna connector. This prevents the contact element from slipping and losing contact with the antenna connector pressing against it.

[0034] According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the contact means is made of an electrically conductive material.

[0035] The electrically conductive material can, for example, be an electrically conductive filler in the form of a gel, paste, or silicone. In this case, another electrically conductive material, such as metal particles or a metal structure, can be incorporated into the gel, making the gel conductive.

[0036] One advantage is that the electrically conductive material is inexpensive to manufacture and process. Furthermore, the electrically conductive contact material can be manufactured in various sizes and shapes, such as a sphere, a hemisphere, a rectangle, or a square.

[0037] According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the contact means is designed to be elastic.

[0038] The elastic contact material can be a gel or silicone. The contact material can also be an elastic body, for example, in the shape of a sphere, a hemisphere, a rectangle, or a square.

[0039] Furthermore, the elastically designed contact means can be an elastic material, for example a foam, wherein the foam also has electrically conductive properties, for example by incorporating an electrically conductive braid into the foam.

[0040] In addition, the contact means can be an elastic structure, for example in the form of a coil spring.

[0041] One advantage of this is that the contact material is elastic yet robust against applied compressive forces. The elastic contact material maintains its integrity while the antenna connector presses against the contact material and makes contact. This ensures that the connection between the antenna connector and the circuit board is not lost.

[0042] The elastic contact agent is also inexpensive to process and manufacture.

[0043] According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the housing is made of a plastic.

[0044] The preferred plastics for the housing include ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene copolymer), polycarbonate, polyamide, polyester, or polyoxymethylene. These plastics exhibit good mechanical properties during processing.

[0045] One advantage is that plastic is easy to process, allowing the housing to be manufactured in any shape, while maintaining cost-effective production. Another advantage is that an antenna located within the housing can be used in its function because the plastic does not significantly impair electromagnetic wave propagation.

[0046] A further advantageous embodiment of the invention consists in that the housing has locking elements for connecting the housing upper shell to the housing lower shell, wherein the locking elements consist of a first locking device on the housing upper shell and a second locking device on the housing lower shell, corresponding to one another.

[0047] A locking element is a mechanical device for securing two components to be connected. The locking elements are designed in such a way that they mechanically interlock, thus creating a secure connection between the two components. For example, after a circuit board with the mounted holding and contact element has been inserted into the upper or lower housing shell, the two components are brought together, with the first locking element of the upper housing shell engaging the second locking element of the lower housing shell, firmly connecting them. This holds the circuit board firmly in the housing, preventing it from slipping, for example.

[0048] One advantage is that the locking elements corresponding to one another consist of a first locking device on the upper housing shell and a second locking device on the lower housing shell, whereby the locking elements can be released from one another again by mechanical action after assembly, after the upper housing shell has been connected to the lower housing shell, thus creating a non-destructive, detachable connection between the two components.

[0049] Another advantage is that the removable locking elements on the upper and lower shells of the housing ensure that the components housed in the housing can be replaced.

[0050] According to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the antenna is arranged on and / or in the upper housing shell and / or the lower housing shell.

[0051] One advantage is that one or more antennas can be arranged and mounted during the manufacturing process of the upper or lower housing shell, thus eliminating additional costs. Another advantage is that the antenna is firmly seated in the upper or lower housing shell.

[0052] The advantages mentioned above also apply to one or more antennas mounted on the upper or lower shell of the housing.

[0053] Another advantage is that a defective antenna can be replaced quickly and easily without damaging other components. To do this, the top shell of the housing must be removed from the bottom shell to allow the antenna to be replaced.

[0054] In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, an antenna is arranged on the inside of the housing, wherein the antenna is held in a form-fitting and / or force-fitting and / or material-fitting manner on the upper housing shell and / or the lower housing shell.

[0055] In the preferred case, the antenna is connected to the housing upper shell or lower shell by a form-fitting connection. In an alternative embodiment, the antenna can be connected by a force-fitting or material-fitting connection.

[0056] One advantage is that during a manufacturing process, for example, during an injection molding process, one or more antennas can be inserted into the injection mold of the upper or lower housing shell and cast into the upper or lower housing shell, thus firmly connecting them. This eliminates the need for additional assembly steps and mounting hardware. The positive connection ensures a secure fit of the antenna in the upper or lower housing shell.

[0057] A further advantage is that an antenna arranged on the inside of the upper or lower shell of the housing can be easily replaced with a force-fitting or material-fitting connection without damaging the housing.

[0058] In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the antenna is designed as a surface antenna.

[0059] One advantage is that a planar antenna requires a small installation height due to its geometric shape and therefore requires less installation height in the housing in which it is arranged and mounted than other antennas, which means that the housing can be made smaller.

[0060] A further advantage is that if the planar antenna is mounted in the upper shell or lower shell of the housing, the antenna connection of the planar antenna can be designed in such a way that the contact means accommodated in the holding means is contacted by the antenna connection even if the antenna connection or the antenna is mounted at different angles of the upper shell or lower shell of the housing, without the antenna connection losing contact with the contact means and thus with the circuit board.

[0061] In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, the antenna connection is elastic and exerts a compressive force on the contact means.

[0062] One advantage is that the elastic antenna connector is not damaged or bent during assembly of the housing top shell to the housing bottom shell, and maintains its integrity. This ensures that the antenna connector constantly presses and contacts the contact element arranged in the holding device on the circuit board after the assembly of the housing top shell to the housing bottom shell.

[0063] In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the antenna is designed as a mobile radio antenna and can be installed in a housing.

[0064] One advantage is that the mobile phone antenna enables mobile phone reception using at least one of 2G, 3G, 4G and 5G.

[0065] The device according to the invention is used, for example, in a motor vehicle, preferably for mounting on a tachograph in a truck.

[0066] Advantageous further developments of the invention also result from the features of the following description and the figures.

The same reference numerals are used in the figures for the same or equivalent elements and are not necessarily described again for each figure. It is understood that the invention is not limited to the illustrated embodiments and that the described features can also be combined or modified without departing from the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.

The locking elements consist of Fig. 5, from a first locking device 210, 211, 212, 213, 214 on the upper housing shell 200 and as in Fig. 4, from a second locking device 310, 311, 312, 313, 314 on the housing bottom shell 300. By joining the housing top shell 200 with the housing bottom shell 300, the corresponding locking elements engage with each other and hold the circuit board 400 firmly in the housing 100. During assembly, the circuit board 400 can be inserted into either the housing top shell 200 or the housing bottom shell 300.

[0070] The circuit board 400 can have one or more holding means 430, 431 on the top side 410 or on the bottom side 420. The holding means 430, 431 are rigidly connected to the circuit board 400 by soldering. This creates and enables a firm and electrically conductive connection between the holding means 430, 431 and the circuit board 400.

[0071] A contact means 440, 441 is inserted into the holding means 430, 431 arranged on the circuit board 400, which contact means is received and enclosed by the holding means 430, 431 and is held on the circuit board 400 against slipping.

[0072] An electrically conductive connection to the circuit board 400 is established and enabled between the contact means 440, 441 and the holding means 430, 431.

[0073] The housing upper shell 200 or the housing lower shell 300 is designed such that at least one antenna 220, 320 is arranged on the inside of the housing 100. For example, an antenna 320 with an antenna connection 330, 331 is arranged in the housing lower shell 300.

[0074] The antenna 320 rests flat on the inside of the housing bottom shell 300 and is firmly connected thereto by a fastening means 340. The antenna arm 330, 331 is configured such that it is positioned at an angle of 90 degrees to the antenna 320, so that the antenna connection 330, 331 is arranged perpendicular to the antenna 320 and the housing bottom shell 300.

[0075] In the final assembly position of the housing upper shell 200 with the housing lower shell 300 and the circuit board 400 inserted therein, for example, the antenna 220 arranged in the housing upper shell 200 with the antenna connection 230, 231 is aligned parallel to the circuit board 400, so that the elastically designed antenna connection 230, 231 of the antenna 220 presses and contacts the elastic contact means 440, 441 arranged on the circuit board and received in the holding means 430, 431 in the assembly direction Y. This creates and enables an electrically conductive connection between the antenna connection 230, 231 of the antenna 220 and the circuit board 400 via the contact means 440, 441 received in the holding means 430, 431.

[0076] The housing 100 has an end face 110. The end face 110 is shown as an example and includes the connecting means 450 (not shown), which is connected to the circuit board 400. When the housing upper shell 200 is assembled with the housing lower shell 300, the connecting means 450 extends out of the housing 100 at the end face 110 so that the device 10 can be connected via the connecting means 450 to, for example, a vehicle bus system or to a tachograph. A connecting means 450 can be, for example, a ribbon connector.

[0077] Fig. 2 shows an embodiment of the housing upper shell 200.

In an exemplary embodiment, the housing lower shell 300 is designed with a plurality of locking devices 310, 311, 312, 313, 314, which are arranged along the upper side of the housing lower shell 300 in the assembly direction with the housing upper shell 200. The circuit board 400 is preferably inserted into the housing lower shell 300. The antenna connection 330, 331 then presses and contacts the contact means 442, 443 arranged on the underside of the circuit board 420 as shown in Fig. 6, which is received by the holding means 432, 433 and held firmly on the underside of the circuit board 420.

[0080] In the final assembly position, for example, the locking mechanism 213 of the housing upper shell 200 engages the locking mechanism 313 of the housing lower shell 300. After connecting the housing upper shell 200 to the housing lower shell 300 in the assembly direction Y, the antenna connection 230, 231 of the antenna 220 arranged in the housing upper shell 200 presses and contacts the contact means 440, 441 arranged on the upper side of the circuit board 410, which is received by the holding means 430, 431 and firmly held on the upper side of the circuit board 410. The housing upper shell 200 also has an end face 250.
