Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0720250A1] The antenna has a mounting (30) which is fixed to part of the bodywork (40) of a vehicle and accepts a coaxial cable termination (20). The coaxial cable termination comprises an earthing ring (21,22), an insulating ring (23) and an annular core (24) connected to the core (26) of the cable (27). The signal picked up by the antenna is passed to a threaded rod (31) through an opening (41) in the bodywork and the central opening of the cable termination. Around this opening, the insulating ring has a centering surface (44) which co-operates with an element (42) integral with the rod. The opening in the annular core differs from that of the contour of the threaded rod so as to leave an insulating space between them.
