Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

To provide an electromagnetic-wave transmitting cover which can achieve range extension and angle widening of a sensing radar and is excellent in design property. An electromagnetic-wave transmitting cover of the invention includes a base material made of an electromagnetic-wave-transmissive material, a light-transmitting base material formed on a surface of the base material and made of a light-transmissive material, and a design layer disposed between the base material and the light-transmitting base material, the electromagnetic-wave transmitting cover transmitting an electromagnetic wave, the electromagnetic-wave transmitting cover has an electromagnetic-wave transmitting area which transmits the electromagnetic wave, the base material and the light-transmitting base material in the electromagnetic-wave transmitting area has an interval of 0.12 mm or less, an adhesive layer is formed on an entire surface between the base materials, and a deviation in angle when the electromagnetic wave is transmitted is 0.3° or less.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . An electromagnetic-wave transmitting cover comprising: a base material ( 2 ) made of a material which can transmit an electromagnetic wave; a light-transmitting base material ( 4 ) formed on a surface of the base material and made of a light-transmissive material; and a design layer ( 3 ) disposed between the base material and the light-transmitting base material, the electromagnetic-wave transmitting cover transmitting an electromagnetic wave, wherein the electromagnetic-wave transmitting cover has an electromagnetic-wave transmitting area which transmits the electromagnetic wave, the base material and the light-transmitting base material in the electromagnetic-wave transmitting area has an interval of 0.12 mm or less, an adhesive layer ( 5 ) is formed on an entire surface between the base material and the light-transmitting base material, and a deviation in angle of the electromagnetic wave when the electromagnetic wave is transmitted through the electromagnetic-wave transmitting cover is 0.3° or less. 2 . The electromagnetic-wave transmitting cover according to claim 1 , wherein a difference obtained by subtracting the relative permittivities of the base material and the light-transmitting base material from the relative permittivity of the adhesive layer preferably ranges from −1.72 to 2.58. 3 . The electromagnetic-wave transmitting cover according to claim 1 , wherein the electromagnetic-wave transmitting cover is disposed in front of a millimeter-wave radar. 4 . The electromagnetic-wave transmitting cover according to claim 1 , wherein, after either one of the base material and the light-transmitting base material is molded, the other one of the base materials is insert-molded together with an adhesive agent.
