Abstract
A mobile object includes a wall member to which an ultrasonic sensor is fixed. The wall member has a through hole through which an oscillating face of the ultrasonic sensor is exposed from the wall member. A closing member closes a gap generated between the wall member and the ultrasonic sensor. The closing member connects an edge of the through hole located outside of the wall member and an edge of the oscillating face of the ultrasonic sensor. The closing member has an outer face exposed from the wall member, and the outer face of the closing member has asperities.
Claims7
A mounting structure of an ultrasonic sensor comprising:
- an ultrasonic sensor having an ultrasonic element;
- a mobile object including a wall member to which the ultrasonic sensor is fixed, the wall member having a through hole through which an oscillating face of the ultrasonic sensor is exposed from an outer face of the wall member;
- and
- a closing member to close a gap generated between the through hole of the wall member and the ultrasonic sensor, wherein
- the closing member connects an edge of the through hole located outside of the wall member and an edge of the oscillating face of the ultrasonic sensor,
- the closing member has an outer face exposed from the outer face of the wall member, and
- the outer face of the closing member has asperities.
A mounting structure of an ultrasonic sensor comprising:
- an ultrasonic sensor having an oscillating face arranged to extend in a vertical direction;
- a wall member to which the ultrasonic sensor is mounted, the wall member being inclined relative to the oscillating face, the oscillating face being exposed from the inclined wall member through a through hole defined in the inclined wall member;
- a closing member to close a gap generated between the inclined wall member and the oscillating face;
- and
- a fixing member to fix the ultrasonic sensor and the closing member to the inclined wall member, wherein
- the closing member has an outer face exposed from the inclined wall member, and
- the outer face of the closing member has asperities.
