Radar measuring device
A radar measuring device with a housing at least partially filled with a potting compound, a general-diffuse planar antenna arranged in the housing, at least one transmitter and at least one receiver that are connected to the planar antenna, and a lens arranged in a main emission direction of the planar antenna for radiation emitted from the planar antenna, wherein a separating apparatus is arranged in the housing and is designed and arranged in such a way that a penetration of the potting compound into an area within the separating apparatus and between the antenna and the lens is prevented.
1. A radar measuring device with a housing at least partially filled with a potting compound, a general-diffuse planar antenna arranged in the housing, at least one transmitter and at least one receiver that are connected to the planar antenna, and a lens arranged in a main emission direction H of the planar antenna for radiation emitted from the planar antenna, wherein a separating apparatus is arranged in the housing and is designed and arranged in such a way that a penetration of the potting compound into an area within the separating apparatus and between the antenna and the lens is prevented, wherein the planar antenna radiates towards the lens without the use of a coupling means.
2. The radar measuring device according to claim 1 , wherein the separating apparatus is made from a plastic.
3. The radar measuring device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the separating apparatus is designed to radially surround the planar antenna at the rear.
4. The radar measuring device according to claim 1 , wherein the separating apparatus is designed to radially surround the lens at the front.
5. The radar measuring device according to claim 1 , wherein the separating apparatus is designed to widen conically in the main emission direction H.
6. The radar measuring device according to claim 1 , wherein the separating apparatus has a front and/or a rear sealing apparatus in the main emission direction.
7. The radar measuring device according to claim 6 , wherein the front sealing apparatus is arranged radially to the separating apparatus.
8. The radar measuring device according to claim 6 , wherein the rear sealing apparatus is arranged axially to the separating apparatus, between the separating apparatus and a carrier for the antenna.
9. The radar measuring device according to claim 6 , wherein the front sealing apparatus and/or the rear sealing apparatus is arranged in a groove of the separating apparatus and is designed as an O-ring.
10. The radar measuring device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the separating apparatus is designed integrally with the housing.
11. The radar measuring device according to claim 1 , wherein the separating apparatus is sealed to a carrier for the antenna.
12. The radar measuring device according to claim 1 , wherein the separating apparatus is made from an electrically conductive plastic.
13. The radar measuring device according to claim 1 , wherein the lens is designed as a plano-convex lens or as a Fresnel lens.
