A rectangular storage space is formed between the bottom plate 1, the vertical plate 2 and the two sets of cover plates 4, which can store the vehicle antenna 8 when the vehicle is not in use. The locking ring 7 is provided in conjunction with the lock to further enhance the security of the storage space, thereby hiding the vehicle antenna 8 and avoiding interference by thieves, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the vehicle antenna 8.

[0026] like Figure 5 as well as Figure 6 As shown, two groups of mounting seats 9 are symmetrically arranged on the support plate 10, and each group of mounting seats 9 is provided with a group of vehicle-mounted antennas 8. The vehicle-mounted antennas 8 can be rotated at multiple angles on the mounting seats 9, and a positioning structure is also provided inside the mounting seats 9, and the positioning structure can quickly fix the vehicle-mounted antennas 8 in the rotated position. The vehicle-mounted antenna 8 is a telescopic antenna, and a ball holder 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the vehicle-mounted antenna 8. A spherical cavity for accommodating the ball holder 12 is provided on the upper end surface of the mounting seat 9, and a plurality of rectangular slots distributed in a circular array are concavely arranged outwardly around the spherical cavity. A group of pressure blocks 13 are slidably installed in each rectangular slot, and one end of the pressure block 13 is fixedly connected to a spring 14, and the other end of the pressure block 13 is arranged in an arc shape and extends into the spherical cavity. By arranging a ball holder 12 at the bottom of the vehicle-mounted antenna 8 and connecting it to the mounting seat 9, the vehicle-mounted antenna 8 can be universally rotated in the mounting seat 9, thereby realizing multi-angle adjustment of the vehicle-mounted antenna 8, and by using multiple springs 14 in conjunction with multiple pressing blocks 13, the ball holder 12 can be quickly pressed and fixed no matter where it is rotated to, so that the vehicle-mounted antenna 8 can be stably maintained in the adjusted position.

[0027] like Figure 5 as well as Figure 6As shown, the two sets of mounting seats 9 are provided with a protruding block at one end close to each other, and the mounting seats 9 are provided with a circular groove at the lower end of the spherical cavity, and a positioning mechanism is provided in the circular groove, and the positioning mechanism includes a turntable 16, a spur gear 18 and a rotating shaft 19. The turntable 16 is rotatably installed in the circular groove, and the outer ring of the turntable 16 is fixedly sleeved with a gear ring 17 meshing with the spur gear 18, and a movable cavity for accommodating the spur gear 18 is provided inside the protrusion, and one end of the rotating shaft 19 is fixedly connected to the spur gear 18, and the other end of the rotating shaft 19 extends out of the upper end of the protrusion and is fixedly connected to the rotating ring 20. The turntable 16 is provided with a plurality of driving grooves 21, and a lever 15 is slidably inserted in each driving groove 21, and the end of the lever 15 away from the driving groove 21 extends into the rectangular groove and is fixedly connected to the pressing block 13, and the driving groove 21 is a C-shaped groove, and the number of the pressing block 13 and the lever 15 is set to be no less than four groups.

[0028] When in use, by holding the swivel ring 20 and rotating the shaft 19, the shaft 19 drives the spur gear 18 to rotate counterclockwise, and the spur gear 18 is meshed with the ring gear 17, so that the ring gear 17 drives the turntable 16 to rotate clockwise, and the driving groove 21 on the turntable 16 acts on the lever 15, so that the lever 15 is forced to drive the pressure block 13 to retract into the rectangular groove, and now the ball holder 12 can rotate normally in the mounting seat 9.

[0029] like Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, the linkage assembly includes four groups of slide posts 11, which are fixedly arranged on both sides of the support plate 10. Slide grooves 5 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the cover plate 4. The slide posts 11 are slidably inserted in the slide grooves 5, and the slide grooves 5 are oblique grooves. When the two groups of cover plates 4 are pulled apart to both ends by the hand-held handle 6, the oblique slide grooves 5 thereon act on the slide posts 11, so that the slide posts 11 drive the support plate 10 to move upward, so that the vehicle-mounted antenna 8 extends outward from the vertical plate 2, which is convenient for people to adjust its angle; and when the two groups of cover plates 4 are merged toward the center, the oblique slide grooves 5 thereon act on the slide posts 11 again, so that the slide posts 11 drive the support plate 10 to move downward, so that the mounting seat 9 can drive the vehicle-mounted antenna 8 to retract to the inner side of the two groups of vertical plates 2.

[0030] Working principle: In actual use, firstly, the two sets of cover plates 4 are pulled apart to both ends by holding the handle 6. At this time, the inclined slide groove 5 on the cover plate 4 acts on the slide column 11, so that the slide column 11 drives the support plate 10 to move upward, so that the vehicle-mounted antenna 8 extends out of the vertical plate 2 on the outside, and then the rotating ring 20 is held and the rotating shaft 19 is rotated, so that the rotating shaft 19 drives the spur gear 18 to rotate counterclockwise, and the spur gear 18 is meshed with the ring gear 17, so that the ring gear 17 drives the turntable 16 to rotate clockwise, and the driving groove 21 on the turntable 16 acts on the lever 15, so that the lever 15 is forced to drive the pressure block 13 to retract into the rectangular slot, and the ball holder 12 can rotate normally in the mounting seat 9; after the vehicle-mounted antenna 8 is adjusted to a suitable angle, the rotating ring 20 is released. At this time, multiple springs 14 are used in conjunction with multiple pressure blocks 13, so that the ball holder 12 can be quickly pressed and fixed no matter where it is rotated to, so that the vehicle-mounted antenna 8 can be stably maintained in the adjusted position. By providing a bottom plate 1, a vertical plate 2 and two sets of cover plates 4 to form a rectangular storage space, the vehicle-mounted antenna 8 can be well stored when the vehicle is not in use. By providing a lock ring 7 for use in conjunction with a lock, the security of the storage space is further enhanced, and the vehicle-mounted antenna 8 is hidden to avoid interference from thieves, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the vehicle-mounted antenna 8.

[0031] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
