Abstract
The present invention relates to a portable electronic device with static charge protection, which is particularly suitable for use in areas exposed to explosion hazards and not limited in its functions therein. The portable electronic device comprises a transmission module having an antenna, and a housing, accommodating the transmission module and the antenna, wherein at least part of the housing has such a frame structure of frame elements of anti-static material with areas of another material placed there in-between that the radiation of the antenna goes essentially through the areas and not through the frame elements of anti-static material.

Portable electronic device with static charge protection, comprising
- a transmission module having an antenna, and
- a housing accommodating the transmission module and the antenna, wherein
- at least a part of the housing has a frame structure of frame elements of anti-static material with areas of another material located there in-between, so that the radiation of the antenna substantially goes through the areas and not through the frame elements of anti-static material.
Method for producing a portable electronic device with static charge protection, comprising the steps:
- providing a portable electronic device having a transmission module, antenna and housing, and
- applying on at least a part of the device a frame structure of frame elements of anti-static material with areas without material or another material located there in-between, so that the radiation of the antenna substantially goes through the areas and not through the frame elements of anti-static material.
