  • Patent number: 11923614
    Abstract: Antenna rotation structure includes a rotating member and an angle adjusting member. The rotating member is rotatably disposed along an axial direction in an accommodating space of the housing and includes a holding portion and a pushing portion disposed at one side of the holding portion spaced apart from the axial direction. The angle adjusting member includes a pressing portion bonded to a through hole of the housing and made of an elastic material and, an abutting portion connected to the pressing portion and corresponding to the pushing portion. When the pressing portion is pressed by a force, it deforms and drives the abutting portion to push the pushing portion to drive the holding portion to rotate about the axial direction to adjust the angle of the antenna.

  • Publication number: 20130050034
    Abstract: An automotive radar device and an antenna cover are disclosed. The automotive radar device includes a base, an antenna disposed on the base, and the antenna cover. The antenna cover includes a main portion and an engagement portion connected to the circumference of the main portion. The engagement portion can be engaged to the base such that the main portion covers the antenna. Therein, a thickness of the main portion along a radiation direction of the antenna is equal to half-wavelength corresponding to a center operation frequency of the antenna under a dielectric constant of the main portion. Thereby, energy radiated from the antenna can mostly pass through the main portion without excessive signal attenuation, which solves the insufficient signal intensity due to a protection cover in the prior art. Further, the main portion can be made of flexible and weather resistant material to improve its physical and chemical properties.
