BESTATIGUNGSKOPIE
schichten aus einer nanόkristallinen oder amorphen, weichma¬ gnetischen Metallegierung hoher Permeabilität umfassen, wobei jede der Metallschichten eine Dicke zwischen 15 und 100 μm, vorzugsweise zwischen 20 und 30 μm, aufweist, und wobei die Metallschichten derart übereinander angeordnet sind, daß ein Stromfluß von einer Metallschicht zu einer benachbarten er¬ schwert ist . Die Verwendung des genannten Materials führt zu einem Kern mit den gewünschten weichmagnetischen Eigenschaf¬ ten. Die Induktivitäten der auf der Grundlage solcher Kerne hergestellten Spulen lassen sich bereits bei der Herstellung um ein Vielfaches genauer einstellen als die Induktivitäten von Ferritkernspulen, da die magnetischen Eigenschaften und Dimensionen der Kerne genauer reproduzierbar sind. Die mehre¬ ren dünnen Metallschichten können durch Isolatorschichten beabstandet sein oder auch direkt aufeinander liegen, wobei in dem zuletzt genannten Fall der Stromfluß zwischen den Schich¬ ten durch eine spezielle Oberflächenstruktur der Schichten er¬ schwert sein kann.BESTATIGUNGSKOPIE layers of a nanocrystalline or amorphous, weichma¬ netic metal alloy of high permeability comprise, wherein each of the metal layers has a thickness between 15 and 100 .mu.m, preferably between 20 and 30 .mu.m, and wherein the metal layers are arranged one above the other so that a current flow of a Metal layer to an adjacent er¬ sword is. The use of said material leads to a core with the desired soft magnetic properties. The inductances of the coils produced on the basis of such cores can already be set more precisely during production by a multiple than the inductances of ferrite core coils, since the magnetic properties and dimensions the cores are more reproducible. The several thin metal layers can be spaced apart by insulator layers or else lie directly on top of one another, wherein in the latter case the current flow between the layers can be made difficult by a special surface structure of the layers.
Die aus den dünnen Metallegierungsschichten hergestellten Kerne haben gegenüber Ferritkernen eine deutlich höhere mecha¬ nische Flexibilität (u.a. Biegbarkeit) , was ihre Montage in einem Kraftfahrzeugbauteil insbesondere in einem Türgriff, er¬ leichtert. Die Kerne weisen neben den wenigen Metallegierungs¬ schichten an den Außenflächen zusätzlich (dickere) Isolator- schichten auf. Die wenigen dünnen Metallegierungsschichten er¬ möglichen zudem die Herstellung eines Kerns und somit einer Antennenanordnung mit einem relativ geringen Gewicht.The cores produced from the thin metal alloy layers have a significantly higher mechanical flexibility compared to ferrite cores (inter alia bendability), which facilitates their mounting in a motor vehicle component, in particular in a door handle. In addition to the few metal alloy layers on the outer surfaces, the cores additionally have (thicker) insulator layers. The few thin metal alloy layers also make it possible to produce a core and thus an antenna arrangement with a relatively low weight.
Als dünne Metallegierungsschicht wird vorzugsweise eine amorphe Kobaltlegierung, alternativ eine nanokristalline Le- gierung auf Eisenbasis verwendet. Ein weiterer Vorteil bei der Verwendung derartiger Schichten zum Aufbau von Kernen für In¬ duktionsspulen von Antennenanordnungen besteht darin, daß die dünnen Metallschichten und die daraus hergestellten Kerne preiswerter als Kerne aus Ferriten herzustellen sind. Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform sind 5 bis 20, vor¬ zugsweise 6 - 10, Metallschichten übereinander angeordnet.
Diese Anzahl führt zu einem Optimum der gewünschten magneti¬ schen Eigenschaften und des Gewichts.The thin metal alloy layer used is preferably an amorphous cobalt alloy, alternatively an iron-based nanocrystalline alloy. Another advantage of using such layers for constructing cores for induction coils of antenna arrangements is that the thin metal layers and the cores made therefrom are cheaper to produce than cores made of ferrites. In a preferred embodiment, 5 to 20, preferably 6 to 10, metal layers are arranged one above the other. This number leads to an optimum of the desired magnetic properties and the weight.
Vorteilhafte und/oder bevorzugte Weiterbildungen der Er¬ findung sind in den Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet. Im folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand eines in der Zeich¬ nung dargestellten bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiels näher be¬ schrieben. In der Zeichnung zeigen:Advantageous and / or preferred developments of the invention are characterized in the subclaims. In the following the invention will be described in greater detail with reference to a preferred exemplary embodiment shown in the drawing. In the drawing show:

Die erfindungsgemäße Antennenanordnung zum Abstrahlen ei¬ nes langwelligen Aufwecksignal für einen ID-Geber eines schlüssellosen Kraftfahrzeugzugangssystems ist typischerweise im Inneren eines Kraftfahrzeugtürgriffs angeordnet. Fig. 1 zeigt eine schematische Draufsicht auf eine nach außen gerich¬ tete Seitenfläche eines Türgriffs 1. Im Inneren des Türgriffs sind eine Reihe elektronischer Komponenten angeordnet, die üb¬ licherweise einen Sensor zur Erfassung des Zugreifens auf den Türgriff, elektronische Steuereinrichtungen sowie eine Anten¬ nenanordnung 2 mit zugehöriger Treiberschaltung umfassen. Die Antennenanordnung 2 umfaßt einen Kern 3 mit einer darauf ange¬ ordneten Spulenwicklung 4. Die Zuleitungen 5 der Spule 4 sind mit einer Antennentreiberschaltung 6 verbunden. Diese Elemente sind in Fig. 1 schematisch, d.h. nicht maßstabsgetreu darge¬ stellt. Bei der in Fig. 1 gezeigten bevorzugten Induktions¬ spule 2 erstreckt sich die Wicklung 4 beinahe über die gesamte Länge des Kerns 3. Bei anderen Ausführungsformen könnte auch nur ein Teilabschnitt des Kerns mit einer Spule bewickelt sein. Die Anzahl der Wicklungen und der verwendete DrahtThe antenna arrangement according to the invention for emitting a long-wave wake-up signal for an ID transmitter of a keyless vehicle access system is typically arranged inside a motor vehicle door handle. 1 shows a schematic plan view of an outwardly directed side surface of a door handle 1. Inside the door handle a number of electronic components are arranged, which usually comprise a sensor for detecting the access to the door handle, electronic control devices and an antenna nenanordnung 2 with associated driver circuit include. The antenna arrangement 2 comprises a core 3 with a coil winding 4 arranged thereon. The supply lines 5 of the coil 4 are connected to an antenna driver circuit 6. These elements are shown schematically in Fig. 1, i. not to scale. In the preferred induction coil 2 shown in FIG. 1, the winding 4 extends almost over the entire length of the core 3. In other embodiments, only a portion of the core could be wound with a coil. The number of windings and the wire used
(Durchmesser und Material) bestimmen sich nach den gewünschten elektromagnetischen Eigenschaften, insbesondere der gewünsch¬ ten Senderträgerfrequenz und der Reichweite. Diese Details sind für die Zwecke der Beschreibung der vorliegenden Erfin- düng jedoch von untergeordneter Bedeutung. Vorzugsweise sendet die Antennenanordnung auf einer Trägerfrequenz zwischen 100 und 200 kHz, vorzugsweise etwa 125 kHz.
Der Kern 3 hat eine' langgestreckte flache Form. Fig. 2 zeigt eine Schnittansicht an einer quer zur Längsrichtung des Kerns liegenden Schnittebene. Fig. 2 ist eine schematische Darstellung, d.h. das Verhältnis der Dicke zur Breite des Kerns und die Schichtdickenverhältnisse entsprechen nicht zwangsläufig der tatsächlichen Ausführungsform.(Diameter and material) are determined by the desired electromagnetic properties, in particular the desired transmitter carrier frequency and the range. However, these details are of minor importance for the purposes of describing the present invention. Preferably, the antenna arrangement transmits at a carrier frequency between 100 and 200 kHz, preferably about 125 kHz. The core 3 has an 'elongated flat shape. FIG. 2 shows a sectional view on a cutting plane transverse to the longitudinal direction of the core. FIG. Fig. 2 is a schematic illustration, ie the ratio of the thickness to the width of the core and the layer thickness ratios do not necessarily correspond to the actual embodiment.
Der Kern besteht aus mehreren übereinander liegenden, sich über die gesamte Länge des Streifens erstreckenden Schichten. Diese Schichten umfassen Metallschichten 7. Die Metallschich- ten bestehen aus einer nanokristallinen oder amorphen weichma¬ gnetischen Metallegierung hoher Permeabilität und haben je¬ weils eine Dicke zwischen 15 und 100 μm, vorzugsweise zwischen 20 und 30 μm.The core consists of several superimposed layers extending over the entire length of the strip. These layers comprise metal layers 7. The metal layers consist of a nanocrystalline or amorphous soft magnetic metal alloy of high permeability and in each case have a thickness between 15 and 100 .mu.m, preferably between 20 and 30 .mu.m.
In der Mitte des Kerns sind 5 bis 20, vorzugsweise 6 - 10 Metallschichten 7 übereinander angeordnet, die oben und unten jeweils von einer Isolatorschicht 8 bedeckt sind. Bei der be¬ vorzugten Ausführungsform werden Schichten einer nanokristal¬ linen Kobaltlegierung verwendet, die eine Dicke von etwa 20 bis 25 μm haben. Beispielsweise können die Metallfolien der Marke "VITROVAC" der Firma Vacuumschmelze GmbH verwendet wer¬ den.In the middle of the core, 5 to 20, preferably 6 to 10 metal layers 7 are arranged one above the other, which are covered at the top and bottom by an insulator layer 8, respectively. In the preferred embodiment, layers of a nanocrystalline cobalt alloy are used which have a thickness of about 20 to 25 μm. For example, the metal foils of the "VITROVAC" brand from Vacuumschmelze GmbH can be used.
Bei der bevorzugten Ausführungsform reicht es zur Erzie¬ lung der gewünschten magnetischen Eigenschaften aus, nur we¬ nige, vorzugsweise sechs, Lagen dieser Metallschichten über- einander anzuordnen. Die übereinander angeordneten Metall- schichten sind derart elektrisch voneinander isoliert, daß der Stromfluß zwischen den Schichten erschwert ist. Dies kann bei¬ spielsweise durch eine zwischen den Schichten angeordnete Iso¬ latorschicht erreicht werden. Es ist aber auch vorgesehen, die Metallschichten (Folien) unmittelbar übereinander angrenzend zu stapeln, wobei die gewünschte Isolation aufgrund spezieller Oberflächeneigenschaften der Schichten gewährleistet ist. Die Verwendung nur weniger Schichten führt einerseits zu einem re¬ lativ flexiblen, d.h. biegbaren Kern, andererseits zu einer weiteren Gewichtsreduktion gegenüber herkömmlichen Ferritker¬ nen. Das reduzierte Gewicht der Induktionsspule führt zu einer doppelten Gewichtsreduktion, wenn diese Induktionsspule, wie
erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen ist, in einem Kraftfahrzeugtürgriff eingebracht ist, denn in diesem Fall kann der im Inneren die Tür befindliche Ausgleichsmasse ebenfalls reduziert werden.
In the preferred embodiment, to achieve the desired magnetic properties, it is sufficient to arrange only a few, preferably six, layers of these metal layers one above the other. The stacked metal layers are electrically isolated from each other so that the flow of current between the layers is difficult. This can be achieved, for example, by means of an insulating layer arranged between the layers. However, it is also envisaged to stack the metal layers (foils) immediately adjacent to one another, whereby the desired insulation is ensured on account of special surface properties of the layers. The use of only a few layers leads on the one hand to a relatively flexible, ie bendable core, on the other hand to a further reduction in weight compared to conventional ferrite cores. The reduced weight of the induction coil leads to a double weight reduction when this induction coil, such as is provided according to the invention, is introduced in a motor vehicle door handle, because in this case, the inside of the door located balancing mass can also be reduced.
