Abstract
An electronic device with a housing for being attached to a pane of a motor vehicle by a coupling medium of flexible rubber- or gel-like material includes an exhaust duct for connecting an area of potential bubble formation between the vehicle pane and the coupling medium to ambient air. The exhaust duct prevents the permanent trapping of air bubbles during mounting of the device on the vehicle pane.
Claims20
An electronic device comprising:
- a housing for continuing at least one sensor;
- a first rim substantially circumscribing a second rim, the second rim forming a coupling free region;
- a coupling for at aching the housing to a vehicle pane, the coupling substantially enclosing a region formed between the first rim and the second rim;
- and
- an exhaust duct connecting the coupling free region to ambient air outside of the housing.
