Publication number: 20210284099Abstract: The disclosure herein provides a door for a vehicle in which an antenna is arranged such that signal waves from a device outside the vehicle are favorably received and effects of in-vehicle noise waves are diminished. A door for a vehicle may include: a window frame surrounding a window glass and including a vertical plate extending along a side edge of the window glass; an outer garnish constituted of resin and covering the vertical plate from outside of the vehicle; and an antenna arranged between the outer garnish and the vertical plate. The resin outer garnish allows radio waves to pass therethrough well, thus the antenna can favorably receive the radio waves. On the other hand, the vertical plate of the window frame is constituted of metal, and hence radio waves are less likely to pass therethrough.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 16, 2021Publication date: September 16, 2021Inventors: Masami UEHATA, Sho TSUMITA, Mitsuru FUKUSHIMA, Naoyuki OTA
