    DESCRIPTION
    Radar mounting system in vehicles
    The present invention relates to a system for mounting radar in vehicles, which minimizes the risks of radar damage in the event of a collision.
    Background of the invention
    Current vehicles every day use more safety systems to avoid accidents. For example, it is known to use radars to improve vehicle safety, such as to detect distance from other vehicles to regulate speed or automatically brake in the event of a collision risk.
    These radars are mounted on the body of the vehicle by means of mounting systems comprising a radar support element mounted on a fixing element, which is fixed to the body of the vehicle.
    A drawback of these known mounting systems is that in the event of a collision in the area where the radars are mounted, they can be easily damaged, making it impossible to use them later.
    This is a major inconvenience because the radars have a significant cost, so in order to repair these security systems it is often necessary to use new radars, which greatly increases the cost of repair.
    Therefore, the need for a mounting system for radars in vehicles that minimizes the risks that radars can be damaged in the event of a collision is evident, allowing its reuse.
    Description of the invention
    With the assembly system of the invention, the aforementioned drawbacks are resolved, presenting other advantages that will be described below.
    The radars mounting system in vehicles according to the present invention

    understands:
    - a fixing element that can be fixed to the body of a vehicle;
    - a support element mounted on said fixing element by means of a plurality of mounting points and comprising a housing for a radar;
    and characterized in that at least one of said mounting points is a releasable mounting point, which separates the support element from the fixing element in at least said releasable mounting point.
    According to a first embodiment, said support element comprises four mounting points, two of which are releasable and the other two mounting points are tiltable.
    In this first embodiment, said two releasable mounting points are preferably mounted in the lower part of the support element in the use position of the mounting system and said two tilting mounting points are mounted in the upper part of the support element in the position of use of the mounting system, or vice versa.
    According to a second embodiment, said support element comprises four mounting points, which are releasable.
    Preferably, each releasable mounting point can be pressure mounted in a complementary housing of said fixing element. For example, said housing may have a V-shape on a side plate of the fixing element, or said housing may be placed on a lateral tab of the fixing element.
    For fixing to the body of a vehicle, said fixing element may comprise a pair of legs and screw holes, and said legs are preferably arranged at the top of the fixing element in its use position and said holes are arranged at the bottom of the fixing element in its position of use.
    Furthermore, advantageously said support element can be pivotally mounted on said fixing element.
    With the mounting system according to the present invention the radar travels in the event of a collision, thus minimizing the risk of damage and allowing its reuse in the event that it has not been damaged.

    Description of preferred embodiments
    As can be seen in Figure 1, the mounting system according to the present invention comprises a fixing element 1 that is fixed to the body of a vehicle (not shown in the figures). The fixing of this fixing element 1 to the body is carried out by means of legs 8 and holes 9 for the placement of screws (not shown).
    According to the use position shown in the figures, said legs 8 are placed in the upper part of the fixing element 1 and said holes 9 are located in the lower part of the fixing element 1. However, it should be indicated that the element of fixation 1

    You can attach to the vehicle body in any suitable way.
    In said fixing element 1 a support element 2 is mounted, which serves as a support for a radar 5. For this, the support element 2 comprises a housing 4 for said radar 5. The fixing of the radar 5 inside the housing 4 can be carried out by means of pins 17, as can be seen in Figure 2.
    The mounting of the support element 2 to the fixing element 1 is carried out by means of a plurality of mounting points 3a, 3b. These mounting points 3a, 3b allow the support element 2 to be totally or partially separated from the fixing element 1 in the event of a collision on said mounting system according to the present invention, minimizing the risk of damaging the radar 5.
    To allow the correct orientation of the radar 5, the support element 2 is tiltable with respect to the fixing element 1, for example, with an inclination of ± 5 ° with respect to a horizontal axis in the mounting position (shown in Figure 3) . The adjustment of the inclination is carried out, for example, by means of a screw 10 located on the front of the support element 2, as can be seen in Figures 1 and 2.
    According to the first embodiment shown in Figures 1 to 4, said mounting points are of two types: releasable 3a and tilting 3b, in particular, two releasable mounting points 3a and two tilting mounting points 3b.
    The releasable mounting points 3a are preferably placed on the lower side part of the support element 2, although they could be placed in any other position. Each releasable mounting point 3a comprises a projection 13 defining a neck, which is pressurized in a complementary housing 6, the housing 6 being located on a side plate 7 of the support element 2.
    According to the embodiment shown, said housing 6 has a V-shape, so that the neck defined by the projection 13 is snapped into the narrowest part of said housing 6.
    On the other hand, the tilting mounting points 3b are placed in the upper lateral part of the support element 2, although they could be placed in any other position. Each tilting mounting point 3b comprises a projection 16 that is housed in
    5
    10
    fifteen
    twenty
    25
    30
    35
    a hole 11 located in a tongue 12 of the support element 2.
    In the case of a collision on the mounting system according to the present invention, the projections of the releasable support points 3a will exit their respective housings 6, the support element 2 being separated from the fixing element 1, and the projections of the tilting support points 3b will rotate inside their respective housings. In this way, the support element 2 will swing with respect to the fixing element 1, as can be seen in Figure 4, and the pressure that the sensor 5 must support will be lower than in the case that the sensor was mounted on a fixed support element 2.
    A second embodiment of the mounting system according to the present invention is shown in Figures 5 and 6.
    For reasons of simplicity and clarity, in this second embodiment the same reference numbers are used as in the first embodiment to identify common components, which are not described again, since they perform the same function in the previous embodiment.
    The main difference of this second embodiment with respect to the first embodiment is that the support points 3a are all releasable, so that the support element 2 is completely displaced with respect to the fixing element 1 in the case of a collision.
    In Figures 5 and 6 it is shown that each support point 3a comprises a protrusion 13 that is pressurized in a complementary housing 14. According to the embodiment shown, this housing 14 is placed in a tongue 15 located on one of the sides of the support element 2. However, it should be noted that the releasable support points 3a in this second embodiment could have any suitable configuration that allow the complete separation of the support element 2 from the fixing element 1. For example, they could have the same configuration as in the first embodiment described above.
    Thus, in the event of a collision, the projections 13 leave their housings 14, the support element 2 moving horizontally with respect to the fixing element 1 in its mounting position.
    Although reference has been made to specific embodiments of the invention, it is evident to one skilled in the art that the described mounting system is susceptible to numerous variations and modifications, and that all the mentioned details can be replaced by others technically equivalent, without departing from the scope of protection 5 defined by the appended claims.
