  • Vehicle front impact sensor with impact resistant carriage
    Patent number: 10207741
    Abstract: A vehicular radar assembly includes a radar mount positioned proximate an engine compartment within a vehicle. A radar carriage is slidably coupled to the radar mount and having a radar module coupled thereto. A biasing mechanism biases the radar carriage away from the radar mount toward a use position. Imposition of an impact force against the radar module temporarily overcomes the biasing mechanism and biases the radar carriage toward the radar mount.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 8, 2018
    Date of Patent: February 19, 2019
    Assignee: Ford Global Technologies, LLC
