[0040] The circuit board 20 is provided with one or more signal sources 21, and each signal source 21 outputs or receives the same or different frequency bands. Accordingly, an antenna terminal 11 corresponding to the signal source 21 is provided on the metal frame 10. The antenna terminal 11 is communicatively connected with the signal source 21 to achieve signal transmission with good transmission effect. The metal frame 10 can be provided with multiple antenna terminals 11 to realize a stacked antenna design, which can improve the isolation between the antenna terminals 11 and reduce signal interference.

[0042] The locking member 30 passes through the circuit board 20 and is removably connected to the metal frame 10, locking the circuit board 20 in a predetermined position relative to the metal frame 10. Simultaneously, the circuit board 20 is locked to the metal frame 10 via the locking member 30, enabling communication between the antenna terminal 11 of the metal frame 10 and the signal source 21 on the circuit board 20 via the locking member 30, resulting in highly reliable signal transmission. The metal frame 10 and circuit board 20 are connected via the locking member 30, which serves both as a positioning and mounting mechanism and as a component of the antenna. This facilitates assembly and disassembly of the circuit board 20 and metal frame 10, and ensures stable signal transmission between the antenna terminal 11 and the signal source 21. The circuit board 20 is directly locked and electrically connected to the metal frame 10 via the locking member 30, achieving high positioning accuracy and easy assembly. Furthermore, the circuit board 20 and metal frame 10 have corresponding conductive structures and are connected via the locking member 30. Accordingly, relative to the antenna terminal 11 in the metal frame 10 when in operation, the circuit board 20 and a portion of the metal frame 10 form a portion of the antenna's radiation ground, ensuring stable signal processing.
[0043] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, the circuit board 20 includes a contact portion 22 corresponding to each signal source 21 and a mounting hole 23 provided at the contact portion 22 , and the locking member 30 passes through the mounting hole 23 and is locked to the metal frame 10 .
[0044] Mounting holes 23 are provided at corresponding locations on circuit board 20. Mounting holes 23 are used to locate the circuit board 20 at the predetermined connection position with metal frame 10. Locking members 30 pass through mounting holes 23 and lock into place with metal frame 10, ensuring a tight fit between the surface of circuit board 20 and metal frame 10. At least a portion of locking member 30 is inserted into metal frame 10 and electrically connected thereto.
[0045] A contact portion 22 is provided on the circuit board 20. The contact portion 22 is located around the mounting hole 23 or the mounting hole 23 is opened at the contact portion 22. In an optional embodiment, the contact portion 22 is electrically connected to the metal frame 10 via a locking member 30. The contact portion 22 is provided on the surface of the circuit board 20 and surrounds the mounting hole 23. The end of the locking member 30 is attached to the surface of the circuit board 20 and is electrically connected to the contact portion 22. Optionally, the contact portion 22 is provided on the inner wall surface of the mounting hole 23. The locking member 30 passes through the mounting hole 23 and is attached to the inner wall surface of the mounting hole 23, so that the locking member 30 is electrically connected to the contact portion 22. In an optional embodiment, the contact portion 22 is attached to the metal frame 10 and is electrically connected to the metal frame 10. The contact portion 22 is provided on the surface of the circuit board 20 , and the locking member 30 locks the circuit board 20 to the metal frame 10 . Accordingly, the contact portion 22 is directly electrically connected to the metal frame 10 , resulting in good contact and stable signal transmission.
[0046] In one embodiment, the circuit board 20 further includes an adjustment component 24, through which the contact portion 22 is electrically connected to the signal source 21. The adjustment component 24 is provided on the circuit board 20 and is used to connect the contact portion 22 to the signal source 21. The adjustment component 24 can adjust the operating frequency band and operating performance of the antenna terminal 11, making it easy to adjust the signal parameters of the signal source 21. Optionally, the adjustment component 24 comprises a resistor, capacitor, or other frequency modulation circuitry provided on the circuit board 20. The circuit board 20 includes the adjustment component 24 to adjust the frequency band output by the antenna terminal 11, providing excellent adjustment flexibility. The adjustment component 24 also allows for combining multiple antenna terminals 11 to form different output frequency bands, expanding the antenna's application range. In an optional embodiment, when more than two antenna terminals 11 are provided, the adjustment component 24 is used to improve the isolation between the antenna terminals 11 and enhance their operating efficiency. The circuit board 20 is connected to the metal frame 10 via a locking member 30. This locking member 30 allows the antenna terminals 11 to be locked when in operation, thereby improving the isolation between the multiple antenna terminals 11.
[0047] In one embodiment, the metal frame 10 includes a fixing portion 17 corresponding to each antenna end 11, and the locking member 30 is connected to the fixing portion 17. The metal frame 10 is provided with a fixing portion 17. Optionally, the fixing portion 17 is a raised structure protruding from the surface of the metal frame 10, such as a columnar protruding mounting post, a mounting boss, etc. Optionally, the fixing portion 17 is a mounting platform provided on the metal frame 10, and the circuit board 20 is attached to the mounting platform. The fixing portion 17 is provided with a threaded hole, and the locking member 30 passes through the circuit board 20 and is locked to the threaded hole, so that the signal source 21 on the circuit board 20 is communicatively connected with the corresponding antenna end 11 on the metal frame 10.
[0048] The fixing portion 17 is integrally formed with the metal frame 10, ensuring smooth signal transmission. The antenna terminal 11 is located on the metal frame 10 and corresponds to the fixing portion 17. The circuit board 20 abuts the fixing portion 17 and is electrically connected to the fixing portion 17 via the locking member 30. The locking member 30 maintains close contact with the fixing portion 17, ensuring effective signal transmission.
[0049] In an optional embodiment, the connection impedance between the metal frame 10 and the circuit board 20 is less than or equal to 1 ohm. The metal frame 10 and the circuit board 20 are connected and electrically conductively connected via a locking member 30. This low connection impedance between the metal frame 10 and the circuit board 20 improves signal transmission strength. If the locking member 30 is a metal member, its screw connection to the metal frame 10 provides a large contact area. Adjustment assembly 24 between the metal frame 10 and the circuit board 20 can be adjusted to a maximum connection impedance of 0.5 ohm, 1 ohm, or the like.
[0050] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in one embodiment, when the metal frame 10 includes two or more antenna ends 11 , the working frequency bands of the antenna ends 11 are the same or different.
[0051] The antenna terminals 11 are spaced apart on the metal frame 10 and are used to transmit or receive signals of corresponding frequency bands. The metal frame 10 may be provided with one antenna terminal 11, and accordingly, it may receive signals of the frequency band corresponding to the antenna terminal 11. When two or more antenna terminals 11 are provided on the metal frame 10, each antenna terminal 11 may be able to receive or transmit signals of the corresponding frequency band. In an optional embodiment, the working frequency bands of some antenna terminals 11 may be the same. For example, two antenna terminals 11 are provided on the metal frame 10, and the two antenna terminals 11 may be adjusted to WIFI dual-band radiation. In an optional embodiment, the working frequency bands of the antenna terminals 11 are different. Three antenna terminals 11 are provided on the metal frame 10, and the working frequency bands of each antenna terminal 11 are different.
[0052] The shape of the metal frame 10 can be adjusted according to the appearance of different products, such as the metal frame 10 being approximately rectangular, approximately polygonal with large rounded corners, or other shapes. The following is an example of a metal frame 10 in the shape of a rectangular frame.
[0053] In one embodiment, the metal frame 10 includes a first side wall 14, a second side wall 13 arranged opposite to the first side wall 14, and a top wall 12 connecting the first side wall 14 and the second side wall 13, and the antenna end 11 is set on at least one of the first side wall 14, the second side wall 13 and the top wall 12.
[0054] The first side wall 14, the second side wall 13, and the top wall 12 form a substantially U-shaped structure, with the antenna end 11 disposed on each of the first side wall 14, the second side wall 13, and the top wall 12. In an alternative embodiment, one antenna end 11 is disposed on only one of the first side wall 14, the second side wall 13, and the top wall 12. Alternatively, one antenna end 11 may span two intersecting side walls of the metal frame 10, such as one antenna end 11 disposed on the first side wall 14 and extending to the top wall 12, or one antenna end 11 disposed on the second side wall 13 and extending to the top wall 12.
[0055] In an optional embodiment, there are two or more antenna ends 11, wherein the antenna end 11 is only located on one of the first side wall 14, the second side wall 13, and the top wall 12. Alternatively, the antenna end 11 is located on at least one of the first side wall 14, the second side wall 13, and the top wall 12. For example, there are two antenna ends 11, with the two antenna ends 11 being located on the first side wall 14 and the top wall 12, respectively; or the two antenna ends 11 being located on the second side wall 13 and the top wall 12, respectively; or the two antenna ends 11 being located on the first side wall 14 and the second side wall 13, respectively. Any antenna end 11 can span two intersecting portions of the metal frame 10 or be located on only one side wall.
[0056] In an optional embodiment, antenna end 11 is configured as a longwave radiator 112 operating within a first operating frequency range or a shortwave radiator 111 operating within a second operating frequency range, wherein the operating frequency of longwave radiator 112 is lower than the operating frequency of shortwave radiator 111. Longwave radiator 112 and shortwave radiator 111 are antenna structures operating in different frequency bands, enabling the antenna device to receive and transmit a wider range of signals and have a wider range of applications.
[0057] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, in one embodiment, the first side wall 14 is provided with at least one long-wave radiator 112 or short-wave radiator 111. In an alternative embodiment, the second side wall 13 is provided with at least one long-wave radiator 112 or short-wave radiator 111.

[0060] The long-wave radiator 112 and the short-wave radiator 111 are spaced apart on the top wall 12, wherein the short-wave radiator 111 is communicatively connected to a signal source 21 to output an antenna signal of a corresponding frequency band. Furthermore, the short-wave radiator 111 located on the top wall 12 is combined with the short-wave radiator 111 on the second side wall 13 to form a combined radiator, so that the combined radiator can output an antenna signal of a corresponding frequency band, which is different from the operating frequency band of the short-wave radiator 111. The formation of the combined radiator can switch and couple the circuits through the adjustment component 24, so that the short-wave radiator 111 located on the top wall 12 and the short-wave radiator 111 on the second side wall 13 can both operate in their own operating frequency bands, and can also output the operating frequency band of the combined radiator through switching and coupling of the adjustment component 24.
[0061] In an optional embodiment, the first side wall 14 is provided with a first partition groove 16. When the first side wall 14 is provided with a long-wave radiator 112 and the long-wave radiator 112 of the first side wall 14 extends from the first side wall 14 to the top wall 12, the first partition groove 16 divides the long-wave radiator 112 into two parts. When the first side wall 14 is only provided at the short-wave radiator 111, the first partition groove 16 is located between the short-wave radiator 111 and the top wall 12.
[0062] In an optional embodiment, the second side wall 13 is provided with a second partition groove 15. When the long-wave radiator 112 is provided on the second side wall 13 and the long-wave radiator 112 of the second side wall 13 extends from the second side wall 13 to the top wall 12, the second partition groove 15 divides the long-wave radiator 112 into two parts. When the second side wall 13 is only provided at the short-wave radiator 111, the second partition groove 15 is located between the short-wave radiator 111 and the top wall 12.
[0063] A first spacing groove 16 and a second spacing groove 15 are provided on the metal frame 10 to interrupt the current path within the metal frame 10, thereby forming multiple antenna terminals 11 capable of radiating antenna signals. In an optional embodiment, the long-wave radiator 112 extends from the first side wall 14 to the top wall 12. In an optional embodiment, the long-wave radiator 112 extends from the second side wall 13 to the top wall 12. The first spacing groove 16 and the second spacing groove 15 are provided on the first side wall 14 and the second side wall 13, near the intersection of the first side wall 14 and the second side wall 13 with the top wall 12, thereby expanding the range of the top wall 12 for the antenna terminals 11.
[0064] like Figure 2 As shown, in one specific embodiment, the first side wall 14 and the second side wall 13 are each provided with a shortwave radiator 111, and the top wall 12 includes two shortwave radiators 111. The shortwave radiators 111 are communicatively connected to a signal source 21. The shortwave radiator 111 on the top wall 12 and the shortwave radiator 111 on the second side wall 13 are coupled to form a combined radiator capable of outputting long-wavelength antenna signals. Optionally, the shortwave radiator 111 on the second side wall 13 extends from the second side wall 13 to the top wall 12. Optionally, the second spacing groove 15 is located where the shortwave radiator 111 is located.
[0065] It is worth mentioning that, without changing the shape of the metal frame 10 and the positions of the first spacing groove 16 and the second spacing groove 15, the number and arrangement of the antenna terminals 11 can be flexible to achieve different operating frequency bands and reception of different signals, and realize a stacked design of multiple antennas. For example:
[0066] like Figure 1 As shown, in a specific embodiment, a short-wave radiator 111 is provided on the first side wall 14 and the second side wall 13 respectively, and a long-wave radiator 112 is provided on the top wall 12 .
[0067] like Figure 3As shown, in one specific embodiment, a longwave radiator 112 is provided on the first side wall 14, extending from the first side wall 14 to the top wall 12. The top wall 12 is provided with at least one shortwave radiator 111, and the second side wall 13 is provided with a shortwave radiator 111. In an alternative embodiment, the top wall 12 is provided with two spaced-apart shortwave radiators 111. Optionally, the circuit board 20 is connected to the top wall 12 via a locking member 30, wherein each shortwave radiator 111 is communicatively connected to the circuit board 20 via a corresponding locking member 30, and the two shortwave radiators 111 can operate independently due to different signal sources. Optionally, a locking member 30 connected to the circuit board 20 is provided at a predetermined position on the top wall 12. The locking member 30 is connected to a grounding component of the circuit board 20 to separate the two shortwave radiators 111 to prevent mutual interference, allowing the two shortwave radiators 111 to operate independently or adjust Wi-Fi dual-band radiation. Optionally, the circuit board 20 may further improve the isolation between the two shortwave radiators 111 on the top wall 12 through an adjustment component 24 provided on the circuit board 20 .
[0068] For example, the top wall 12 is provided with two spaced-apart shortwave radiators 111, which output WiFi signals operating in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, achieving dual-band WiFi radiation with high signal strength and stability. The shortwave radiator 111 on the second side wall 13 outputs Zigbee signals operating in the 2.4 GHz band. The longwave radiator 112 on the first side wall 14 outputs Sub-1G signals operating in the 433 MHz, 868 MHz, and 915 MHz bands.
