Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to fully understand the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the connotation of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0027] Refer to Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 1 which shows a sectional view of the axial direction of a frequency reduction device according to an embodiment of the present invention,Figure 2 shows Figure 1 a schematic enlarged view at A, Figure 3 shows a top view structure diagram after hiding the metal cover plate and the adjusting screw 41 of the frequency reduction device according to an embodiment of the present invention. A frequency reduction device provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes a metal resonant cavity 10, a metal cover body 20, and a resonant column 30. An opening 11 is provided at the top of the metal resonant cavity 10, and the metal cover body 20 is covered at the opening 11. The bottom of the resonant column 30 is fixedly provided on the bottom wall of the metal resonant cavity 10. The resonant column 30 includes a dielectric column 31. The top surface of the dielectric column 31 is in contact with the metal cover body 20.

[0028] For the above frequency reduction device, since the resonant column 30 includes a dielectric column 31 and the top surface of the dielectric column 31 is in contact with the metal cover body 20, that is, it is equivalent to loading a dielectric on the resonant column 30, or the entire resonant column 30 is made of the dielectric column 31, so that a lower resonant frequency can be achieved with a smaller single cavity size than the conventional form.

[0029] It should be noted that the frequency reduction device is not limited to being a single metal resonant cavity 10 as shown in Figure 1 the figure, and it can also be two metal resonant cavities 10, three metal resonant cavities 10, etc., which are not limited herein.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , Figure 4 shows a schematic structural diagram of the resonant column 30, the buffer pad 60, and the metal elastic member 50 of the frequency reduction device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Further, the resonant column 30 further includes a metal column 32. The bottom of the metal column 32 is fixedly provided on the bottom wall of the metal resonant cavity 10, and the bottom surface of the dielectric column 31 is fixedly provided on the top surface of the metal column 32.

[0031] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , in one embodiment, the bottom surface of the metal column 32 is detachably fixed on the bottom wall of the metal resonant cavity 10. Specifically, the bottom surface of the metal column 32 is fixedly installed on the bottom wall of the metal resonant cavity 10 through installation members 33 such as metal screws, metal pins, metal rivets, etc. The metal column 32 can also be fixedly installed on the bottom wall of the metal resonant cavity 10 by snap connection, screwing, etc., which are not limited herein.

[0032] In another embodiment, the metal column 32 and the metal resonant cavity 10 are of an integral structure. Thus, the metal column 32 and the metal resonant cavity 10 can also be formed into an integral structure by welding, or integrally formed by forging, casting, etc.

[0033] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4, in one embodiment, a first metal layer is provided on the bottom surface of the dielectric column 31. The first metal layer is fixedly welded to the top surface of the metal column 32. A second metal layer is provided on the top surface of the dielectric column 31, and the second metal layer is fixedly welded to the metal cover 20. Specifically, the first metal layer can be a silver layer, a copper layer, an aluminum layer, a tin layer, etc., and the second metal layer can be a silver layer, a copper layer, an aluminum layer, a tin layer, etc., which are not limited herein. By being welded to the top surface of the metal column 32, the dielectric column 31 can be quickly and stably installed on the metal column 32. It should be noted that when the frequency reduction device includes a metal elastic member 50 between the top surface of the dielectric column 31 and the metal cover 20, the second metal layer is fixedly welded to the metal elastic member 50, and the metal elastic member 50 is fixedly welded to the metal cover 20.

[0034] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , in one embodiment, a resonance hole 34 is provided on the top surface of the resonance column 30. The resonance hole 34 penetrates through the dielectric column 31 and extends into the metal column 32. Specifically, the dielectric column 31 is provided with a first through hole that extends from the top surface of the dielectric column 31 to the bottom surface of the dielectric column 31. The top surface of the metal column 32 is provided with a blind hole. The first through hole and the blind hole are coaxially arranged, and the first through hole and the blind hole are connected to form the resonance hole 34.

[0035] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 , further, the frequency reduction device further includes an adjustment screw 41 provided on the metal cover 20. The adjustment screw 41 penetrates through the metal cover 20 and extends into the resonance hole 34, and an adjustment nut 42 is sleeved outside the adjustment screw 41. The adjustment nut 42 abuts against the metal cover 20. When the adjustment nut 42 is rotated, the adjustment nut 42 drives the adjustment screw 41 to move up and down, and the depth of the adjustment screw 41 extending into the resonance hole 34 can be adjusted, so as to play a tuning role.

[0036] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in one embodiment, the frequency reduction device further includes a metal elastic member 50. The metal elastic member 50 is arranged between the dielectric column 31 and the metal cover 20 and is respectively connected to the dielectric column 31 and the metal cover 20. In this way, when the metal cover 20 deforms due to external force or thermal expansion and contraction in a high or low temperature environment, the metal elastic member 50 can deform accordingly, playing a good buffering role. In this way, when the resonance column 30 and the metal cover plate deform (mainly stretching and squeezing), it can be avoided that the bottom of the resonance column 30 is in poor contact with the bottom surface of the metal resonance cavity 10 or the resonance column 30 is damaged, etc., and it can be avoided that the top surface of the resonance column 30 is in poor contact with the metal cover plate, etc., so as to ensure the performance of the filter.

[0037] Refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 ,Figure 5 and Figure 6 , Figure 5 Fig. 5 shows a schematic structural view of one perspective of the buffer pad 60 and the metal elastic member 50 of the frequency down-converting device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 6 Fig. 6 shows a schematic structural view of another perspective of the buffer pad 60 and the metal elastic member 50 of the frequency down-converting device according to an embodiment of the present invention. In one embodiment, the metal elastic member 50 is a metal elastic sheet or a metal spring disposed between the dielectric column 31 and the metal cover 20. In this way, the metal elastic member 50 can play a good elastic buffering role, and when the resonance column 30 and the metal cover are deformed (mainly stretching and squeezing), it can avoid the situation that the bottom surface of the resonance column 30 is in poor contact with the bottom surface of the metal resonance cavity 10 or the resonance column 30 is damaged, and can avoid the situation that the top surface of the resonance column 30 is in poor contact with the metal cover, so as to ensure the performance of the filter. It should be noted that the metal elastic member 50 can also be other structures that can play an elastic buffering role, which is not limited herein.

[0038] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , in one embodiment, the frequency down-converting device further includes a buffer pad 60. The metal elastic sheet includes a first elastic sheet 51 and a second elastic sheet 52 which are oppositely arranged, and a connecting sheet 53 connecting the first elastic sheet 51 and the second elastic sheet 52. The buffer pad 60 is installed between the first elastic sheet 51 and the second elastic sheet 52. In this way, not only the metal elastic member 50 plays a buffering role, but the buffer pad 60 further plays a buffering role, making the buffering effect better. In this way, when the resonance column 30 and the metal cover are deformed (mainly stretching and squeezing), it can avoid the situation that the bottom surface of the resonance column 30 is not firmly in contact with the bottom surface of the metal resonance cavity 10 or the resonance column 30 is damaged, and can avoid the situation that the top surface of the resonance column 30 is not firmly in contact with the metal cover, so as to ensure the performance of the filter.

[0039] In addition, specifically, the first elastic sheet 51 is welded to the second metal layer on the top surface of the dielectric column 31. The second elastic sheet 52 is welded to the side surface of the metal cover facing the bottom surface of the metal resonance cavity 10. In this way, the top surface of the dielectric column 31 and the side surface of the metal cover facing the bottom surface of the metal resonance cavity 10 are not directly connected, but are in indirect contact. Additionally, as an example, the metal elastic sheet is specifically a U-shaped elastic sheet.

[0040] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6, Further, there are several metal elastic members 50, and the buffer pad 60 is an annular washer. The several metal elastic members 50 are arranged at intervals along the buffer pad 60. In addition, specifically, the annular washer is coaxially arranged with the resonant column 30. Additionally, the inner hole 61 diameter of the annular washer is the same as or substantially the same as the diameter of the resonant hole 34. In this way, when the metal cover 20 is deformed due to external force or thermal expansion and contraction in a high or low temperature environment, the several metal elastic members 50 can deform synchronously accordingly, playing a good buffering role. Among them, the number of the metal elastic members 50 can be one, two, three, four, five, six or other numbers, which are not limited herein. Further, the several metal elastic members 50 are arranged at equal intervals along the buffer pad 60.

[0041] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , In one embodiment, the buffer pad 60 is a polytetrafluoroethylene pad, a silica gel pad, a rubber pad, a plastic pad or a resin pad. The polytetrafluoroethylene pad, the silica gel pad, the rubber pad, the plastic pad or the resin pad all have good elastic buffering performance and can be used as the buffer pad 60 and are arranged between the first elastic piece 51 and the second elastic piece 52. Specifically, the first elastic piece 51 and the second elastic piece 52 are clamped and fixed on the buffer pad 60, that is, the elastic metal member is stably installed on the buffer pad 60 and is not easy to fall off from the buffer pad 60. Further, in order to improve the clamping force of the first elastic piece 51 and the second elastic piece 52 on the buffer pad 60, for example, a step is provided on one side surface of the buffer pad 60, and the free end of the first elastic piece 51 is placed on the step. The step plays a limiting role on the free end of the first elastic piece 51, which can avoid the first elastic piece 51 from detaching from the buffer pad 60 to a certain extent, so as to improve the clamping effect of the first elastic piece 51 and the second elastic piece 52 on the buffer pad 60.

[0042] In addition, it should be noted that the buffer pad 60 is not limited to the annular washer in the above embodiment, and can also be other shapes. For example, it can be one or several blocks, columns or other structures that can buffer the first elastic piece 51 and the second elastic piece 52 and are arranged between the first elastic piece 51 and the second elastic piece 52, which are not limited herein.

[0043] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2In one embodiment, a protrusion 54 is provided on the first elastic sheet 51 or the second elastic sheet 52. Specifically, when the first elastic sheet 51 is provided with a protrusion 54, the protrusion 54 is formed by bending, pressing, casting or forging the first elastic sheet 51. Similarly, when the second elastic sheet 52 is provided with a protrusion 54, the protrusion 54 is formed by bending, pressing, casting or forging the second elastic sheet 52. In this way, for example, when an external force acts on the metal cover 20, the metal cover 20 transmits the force to the metal elastic member 50, pushing the metal elastic member 50, and the protrusion 54 of the metal elastic member 50 is easily flattened after being subjected to the force, thereby playing a better buffering role. When the external force on the metal cover 20 is cancelled, the protrusion 54 of the metal elastic member 50 restores its original shape under the action of its own elastic force, so that the metal cover 20 is reset.

[0044] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, a recess 21 is provided on the side surface of the metal cover 20 facing the bottom wall of the metal resonant cavity 10. The buffer pad 60 and the metal elastic member 50 are both disposed in the recess 21. In addition, the edge of the buffer pad 60 is in conflict with the inner wall of the recess 21. In this way, the buffer pad 60 and the metal elastic member 50 are installed between the metal cover 20 and the dielectric column 31, and the buffer pad 60 and the metal elastic member 50 are located in the recess 21 of the metal cover 20. The metal cover 20 limits the buffer pad 60 and the metal elastic member 50, and can prevent the buffer pad 60 and the metal elastic member 50 from moving relative to the metal cover 20.

[0045] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, the frequency reduction device further includes a connector 70 disposed on the cavity wall of the metal resonant cavity 10. The frequency reduction device transmits communication signals with an external device through the connector 70.
