The Antenna Company

A hand tool for facilitating removal of adhesively mounted objects, and in particular, cellular telephone antennas includes an engagement head and a shank portion extending away from the head and terminating in a handle. The handle is offset from the engagement head both vertically and horizontally such that when the tool is applied to an antenna module, the handle is oriented in a generally horizontal plane and the user's hand is set into a preselected orientation. Rotation of the wrist applied a twisting force to the module, resulting in a shear of the adhesive from torsion.

Hand tool for removal of adhesively mounted items, particularly cellular

A mobile telephone antenna mounting assembly has a base member which is adhered to an exterior surface of an automobile includes two opposing sidewalls. A channel is defined between the opposing sidewalls which receives an antenna body therein. An opening extends along an axis through the opposing sidewalls and the antenna body. A mounting screw extends through the opening and engages at one end thereof, a nut recessed in one sidewall which nut is prevented from rotation when threadedly engaged by the mounting screw while the screw engages at the opposite end, a washer having a generally frusto-conical configuration which washer engages both the mounting screw head and an inner engagement surface of one of the sidewalls.

Evertight antenna mounting assembly

A window-mounted cellular mobile telephone antenna and method of installation includes an outside coupling module for mounting on the outside surface of a vehicle window in registration with an inside coupling module mounted on the inside surface of the window. The outer coupling module includes a metallic base having a contoured portion for pivotally mounting a vertical radiating element, and a generally flat window engaging portion for engaging the window glass. A peripheral channel formed on the engaging portion defines a central engaging surface. An adhesive layer applied to the engaging surface engages the surface of the glass when the base is positioned on the glass for use. A bead of silicone adhesive in the channel expands against the glass to protect the adhesive layer from exposure to water and contaminants.
