Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of Bluetooth antennas, and in particular relates to a Bluetooth antenna device and a Bluetooth equipment with a three-dimensional structure. Background Art

[0002] Bluetooth antenna technology is a widely used, low-cost, low-power wireless communication technology that operates in the 2.4GHz frequency band.

[0003] Among them, Bluetooth headsets are a type of consumer audio product that uses Bluetooth antenna technology to wirelessly transmit voice, music, and related data to related smart devices; and the antenna is an important component in Bluetooth headsets for transmitting and receiving electromagnetic waves; from the perspective of structural type and application materials, commonly used antennas include the following types: LDS (laser) antennas, FPC antennas, ceramic antennas, and PCB board-mounted antennas; and LDS antennas, FPC antennas, and ceramic antennas require collaborative processing and production in different factories due to structural and material factors, and collaboration between different manufacturers will inevitably lead to uncertainty in quality and delivery time, and will also cause costs to rise.

[0004] Nowadays, the sales volume of Bluetooth headsets has shown explosive growth due to their portability, aesthetics and flexibility. Similarly, in order to meet the needs of market consumption, the appearance design of Bluetooth headsets is becoming more and more beautiful, smaller and more diversified in functions; and the miniaturization of the headset appearance will inevitably reduce the area of ​​PCB. The reduction of PCB area and the diversification of functions will lead to increased power consumption of related circuits due to electromagnetic interference, and noise during music playback and calls; similarly, electromagnetic interference will also change the RF parameters of Bluetooth antennas, which will affect the reduction of the communication connection distance between Bluetooth headsets and related smart devices, and the reduction of communication connection quality, thereby affecting the stability and reliability of the product.

[0005] In addition, Bluetooth headsets are constructed from different devices. According to the requirements of the usage scenarios of Bluetooth headsets, the Bluetooth antenna needs to be designed to meet the omnidirectional or multi-directional nature of the antenna. Therefore, devices with conductive properties are prohibited from being placed within a short range near the Bluetooth antenna and the RF signal loop, so as to ensure that the Bluetooth radio frequency signal can be effectively transmitted / received. This is the RF "clearance area" mentioned by some communication terminals and communication equipment. In the application of general Bluetooth products, based on the performance and parameter requirements of the Bluetooth antenna, devices with conductive properties cannot be placed within a minimum clearance area of ​​5mm around the Bluetooth antenna. The components of the Bluetooth headset, such as the battery, speaker, button, microphone, battery welding wire, and copper foil on the PCB, are all devices with conductive properties. These devices are placed in a limited structural space, which poses a harsh challenge to the design and development of the Bluetooth antenna. This is also a technical difficulty that many Bluetooth headset manufacturers need to solve urgently.

[0006] To this end, a design method that is different from the existing Bluetooth headset-related circuits and antenna structures is needed to reduce the electromagnetic interference of the related circuits while improving the antenna's radiation power, radiation efficiency, radiation directivity and consistency of related RF parameters, thereby achieving the reliability and stability of the Bluetooth headset.

[0067] As shown in the attached picture Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 As shown, in another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the total thickness of the PCB substrate (i.e. Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 PCB_H) is 0.6-1 mm, preferably 0.8 mm, but not limited thereto.

[0068] in addition, Figure 6 , Figure 7 ANT_L refers to the length of the space occupied by the first antenna structure and the second antenna structure, which can be designed to be 5 mm, but not limited to this; ANT_W refers to the width of the space occupied by the first antenna structure and the second antenna structure, which can be designed to be 4.9 mm, but not limited to this; ANT_FB refers to the length of the antenna feed terminal 3, which can be designed to be 1.2-1.3 mm, but not limited to this; ANT_S refers to the distance between the antenna feed terminal 3 and the second pin 21, which can be designed to be 1.7-1.9 mm, but not limited to this; ANT_L0 refers to the length of the third antenna segment 204, which can be designed to be 3.0-3.5 mm, but not limited to this; ANT_LS0 refers to the length of the second metal edging segment 6, which can be designed to be 1.5-1.7 mm, but not limited to this; ANT_LS1 refers to the length of the third metal edging segment 7, which can be designed to be 1.5-1.7 mm, but not limited to this.

[0078] In another embodiment of the present invention, a Bluetooth device is provided, which includes a micro control unit, a power supply device and the above-mentioned Bluetooth antenna device.

[0079] Specifically, the Bluetooth device can be a Bluetooth headset or a Bluetooth speaker, etc., which may also include circuit structures such as an antenna impedance matching circuit, an RF signal loop, an audio loop, and components such as a speaker, a button, and a microphone, but is not limited thereto.

[0080] In summary, the Bluetooth antenna device provided in the embodiment of the present invention can be applied to Bluetooth headsets. It has an ultra-small PCB-mounted monopole Bluetooth antenna with three-dimensional structural characteristics. Compared with PCB-mounted antennas with the same structural characteristics on the current market, it has the advantages of small structure volume, low cost, good parameter consistency, and strong anti-electromagnetic interference capability.

[0081] According to electromagnetic field theory and actual application experience, in Bluetooth devices, only when the length of the antenna is equal to 1 / 4 wavelength, the radiation intensity and radiation efficiency of the antenna are in the optimal state, which can effectively achieve the reliability, stability and consistency of Bluetooth headset products. In the actual production and assembly process of Bluetooth headsets, it is found that any component with conductive characteristics near the effective no-go zone of the PCB antenna onboard antenna will seriously affect the characteristic impedance of the antenna, thereby affecting the radiation directivity and radiation efficiency of the antenna, thus leading to the production yield of Bluetooth headsets and affecting the reliability and stability of Bluetooth headsets.

[0082] With regard to the above technical problems, the present invention creatively performs metallization edging process on line segments of different lengths and widths at relevant positions on both sides of the PCB substrate to form antenna line segments with conductor characteristics in which a portion of the overall antenna length is included; at the same time, according to the design rules of the antenna structure, the antenna conductors are respectively etched on the copper foils of the top layer and the bottom layer of the PCB substrate; after completing the production and processing of the above two steps, the antenna conductors of the top layer and the bottom layer and the related conductors of the edging metallization process on both sides of the PCB substrate are completely connected through metallized vias to construct a Bluetooth PCB onboard antenna that fully meets the antenna design parameters; at the same time, without affecting the relevant parameters of the Bluetooth antenna, four line segments with the same width and different lengths can be placed on each layer of the multi-layer PCB substrate to serve as power lines, microphone and other signal lines of the circuit, thereby increasing the functionality of the circuit.

[0083] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present invention shall be subject to the attached claims.
