Publication number: 20110056747Abstract: Disclosed is a terminal structure, which suppresses the increase in the thickness size of a plate-shaped member disposed movably in the direction of main surfaces (14 and 15) so that it can be easily positioned and connected, and which is used in an automotive window glass pane (11) having a predetermined strength, an acid resistance and a weather resistance. The terminal structure (10) comprises a joint unit (5) and a terminal unit (3). The joint unit (5) includes an abutting portion (1) for abutting against the side faces of the end portion of the window glass pane, and protruding portions (2a and 2b) extending from the abutting portion (1) along the main surfaces (14 and 15) of the window glass pane. The terminal unit is disposed to lie within a width (W) of the joint unit in the thickness direction of the window glass pane, and at least a portion of the joint unit is jointed to a conductive film (12) so that the conductive film and the terminal unit are electrically connected.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 2, 2008Publication date: March 10, 2011Inventors: Yoshimitsu Matsushita, Seiji Katakura, Masami Sueda

Patent number: 7199758Abstract: An antenna device is provided in which a common mode current does not flow in a coaxial cable. The coaxial cable is uprighted at the end of the base plate and bent toward the notched portion of the cover so that the connector reaches to the notched portion. A short-circuit stub structure is provided in such a manner that a part of the outer sheath of the coaxial cable is removed to expose the outer conductor and a ring-shaped metal terminal is crimped to the exposed outer conductor. The ring-shaped metal terminal is fixed by using a screw to an acceptance member made of a stainless steel provided on the base plate. The terminal is provided at the position within 0.25? from the feeding point of the ground antenna element.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2005Date of Patent: April 3, 2007Assignees: ALPS Electric Co., Ltd., Nippon Sheet Glass Company, LimitedInventors: Tomoki Ikeda, Norio Tanaka, Naofumi Shiraishi, Hideaki Oshima, Seiji Katakura, Hiroshi Iijima
