[0039] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present disclosure. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0040] The embodiment of the present disclosure provides an antenna pole holding device, such as Figure 2 As shown, the antenna pole holding device includes:

[0041] A vertical pole 1, wherein the vertical pole 1 is fixed on a preset installation plane;

[0042] A horizontal cross bar 2, one end of which is movably connected to the vertical upright bar 1, and the horizontal cross bar 2 can rotate around a first rotation axis, and the first rotation axis is perpendicular to the vertical upright bar 1;

[0043] A rotating rod 3, one end of which is movably connected to the other end of the horizontal cross bar 2, and the rotating rod 3 can rotate around a second rotating shaft, and the second rotating shaft is perpendicular to the horizontal cross bar 2;

[0044] An antenna 4 is fixed to the other end of the rotating rod 3;

[0045] A tensioning adjustment mechanism is used to tension the horizontal cross bar 2 on the vertical upright bar 1 and to tension the rotating rod 3 on the horizontal cross bar 2 .

[0046] The above-mentioned preset installation plane can be the top of the floor 22; the above-mentioned horizontal cross bar 2 can be hinged with the above-mentioned vertical upright bar 1 (such as Figure 3 The aforementioned rotating rod 3 and the aforementioned horizontal cross bar 2 can also be hinged.

[0047] Specifically, when the antenna pole holding device provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure needs to be installed, one end of the horizontal cross bar 2 can be hinged to the vertical pole 1, and the rotating rod 3 fixedly connected with the antenna 4 can be hinged to the other end of the horizontal cross bar 2, and then the vertical pole 1 can be fixed to the top of the floor 22. After that, the operator can adjust the angle of the horizontal cross bar 2 and the rotating rod 3 to change the angle of the antenna 4, so that after the angle of the antenna 4 is adjusted, the horizontal cross bar 2 and the rotating rod 3 are fixed at the corresponding position through the tension adjustment mechanism.

[0048] It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present invention, since the antenna 4 is fixed on the rotating rod 3, and the rotating rod 3 is movably connected to the horizontal cross bar 2, the angle of the antenna 4 can be changed by rotating the rotating rod 3 and the horizontal cross bar 2, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the coverage area of ​​the antenna 4 to reduce the blind spot of the coverage area of ​​the antenna 4.

[0049] That is, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the adjustment and fixation of the angle of the antenna 4 is achieved by adding the horizontal crossbar 2, the rotating rod 3 and the tension adjustment mechanism. In this way, the mechanical structure design is applied to the radio frequency optimization, which solves the limitations of the azimuth angle and mechanical downtilt angle adjustment of the pole holding device in the prior art, achieves the purpose of adjusting the coverage area of ​​the antenna 4, and reduces the blind area of ​​the coverage area of ​​the antenna 4. In addition, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the use of such a mechanical structure design reduces the hardware circuit and sensor layout, greatly reduces the cost, and ensures the economic efficiency of the construction.

[0050] In one possible implementation, Figure 2 As shown, the tension adjustment mechanism includes a first fixed pulley 5, a second fixed pulley 6, a third fixed pulley 7, a fourth fixed pulley 8, a fifth fixed pulley 9, a first connecting line 12, a second connecting line 13, a first capstan 10 and a second capstan 11, and the first capstan 10 and the second capstan 11 are fixed to the preset installation plane;

[0051] The first fixed pulley 5 and the second fixed pulley 6 are fixed on the vertical pole 1 (for example, fixed on the top of the vertical pole 1), the third fixed pulley 7 and the fourth fixed pulley 8 are both fixed on the horizontal cross bar 2, and the fifth fixed pulley 9 is fixed on the vertical pole 1;

[0052] The first connecting line 12 is wound around the second capstan 11, and one end of the first connecting line 12 passes through the first fixed pulley 5 and the third fixed pulley 7 in sequence and is fixed to one end of the antenna 4, and the other end of the first connecting line 12 passes through the fifth fixed pulley 9 and the fourth fixed pulley 8 in sequence and is fixed to the other end of the antenna 4;

[0053] The second connecting line 13 is wound around the first capstan 10 , and one end of the second connecting line 13 is fixed to the first capstan 10 , and the other end of the second connecting line 13 is fixed to the horizontal crossbar 2 after passing through the second fixed pulley 6 .

[0054] It can be seen that one end of the first connecting line 12 is fixed to one end of the antenna 4, one end of the first connecting line 12 is fixed to the other end of the antenna 4, and the first connecting line 12 passes through the first fixed pulley 5, the third fixed pulley 7, the fourth fixed pulley 8 and the fifth fixed pulley 9, and is wound on the second capstan 11. Therefore, by rotating the second capstan 11, the first connecting line 12 can be in a tensioned state or a relaxed state. When the first connecting line 12 is in a relaxed state, the angle of the rotating rod 3 can be adjusted. After the angle of the rotating rod 3 is adjusted, the second capstan 11 can be controlled to make the first connecting line 12 in a tensioned state, thereby fixing the rotating rod 3 at a corresponding angle.

[0055] Similarly, one end of the second connecting line 13 is fixed on the first capstan 10, and the other end is fixed on the end of the horizontal crossbar 2 away from the vertical pole 1, and the second connecting line 13 passes through the second fixed pulley 6 and is wound on the first capstan 10. Therefore, by rotating the first capstan 10, the second connecting line 13 can be in a tensioned state or a relaxed state. When the second connecting line 13 is in a relaxed state, the angle of the horizontal crossbar 2 can be adjusted. After the angle of the horizontal crossbar 2 is adjusted, the first capstan 10 can be controlled to make the second connecting line 13 in a tensioned state, thereby fixing the horizontal crossbar 2 at a corresponding angle.

[0056] From the above, it can be seen that when the angle of the antenna 4 needs to be adjusted, the first capstan 10 and the second capstan 11 can be controlled to make the second connecting line 13 and the first connecting line 12 in a relaxed state, and after the angle adjustment is completed, the second connecting line 13 and the first connecting line 12 are in a tensioned state.

[0057] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the aforementioned first connecting line 12 and the second connecting line 13 are independent of each other, that is, the second connecting line 13 is installed separately from the mechanical structure (i.e., the horizontal cross bar 2 and the rotating rod 3) connecting the antenna 4, and the two ends of the first connecting line 12 are directly connected to the two ends of the antenna 4. In this way, even if the horizontal cross bar 2 is damaged or in danger of tipping over, the second winch 11 can be controlled to be locked so that the first connecting line 12 cannot move, so as to tighten the antenna 4 and prevent the antenna 4 from falling or tipping over. Moreover, in severe weather such as strong winds, the first winch 10 can be controlled to rotate so that the second connecting line 13 pulls the horizontal cross bar 2 to be parallel to the vertical pole 1, so as to achieve the purpose of retracting the antenna 4 and prevent the antenna 4 from being damaged in severe weather such as strong winds.

[0058] It can be seen from this that the antenna pole holding device of the disclosed embodiment can not only ensure stability under normal working conditions, there is no need to worry about the antenna 4 falling due to aging of the horizontal cross bar 2 or extreme weather during its service life, and the horizontal cross bar 2, rotating rod 3 and antenna 4 can be retracted to ensure the safety and stability of the equipment while it is online.

[0059] Optionally, the first connecting line 12 and the second connecting line 13 may be steel wire ropes, so as to more firmly fix the horizontal cross bar 2 and the rotating rod 3 in appropriate positions.

[0060] In one possible implementation, the horizontal cross bar 2 is a hollow structure, the fourth fixed pulley 8 is fixed on the inner wall of the horizontal cross bar 2, and the fifth fixed pulley 9 is fixed at the connection position between the vertical pole 1 and the horizontal cross bar 2. In this way, the other end of the first connecting line 12 passes through the fifth fixed pulley 9 and enters the hollow structure of the horizontal cross bar 2, and then can pass through the fourth fixed pulley 8 to be connected to the antenna 4.

[0061] In a possible implementation, the first winch 10 and the second winch 11 are both electric winches, and the tensioning adjustment mechanism further includes a drive motor, which is fixed to the preset installation plane and connected to the first winch 10 and the second winch 11 respectively.

[0062] The driving motor can drive the first capstan 10 and the second capstan 11 to rotate respectively, so as to drive the second connecting line 13 and the first connecting line 12 to move. In this way, it is more convenient to drive the first connecting line 12 and the second connecting line 13 to move by the driving motor.

[0063] In a possible implementation manner, the antenna pole holding device further includes an anemometer 19 and a controller, the anemometer 19 and the controller are respectively fixed on the vertical pole 1, the anemometer 19 is electrically connected to the controller, and the controller is electrically connected to the drive motor;

[0064] Among them, when the anemometer 19 detects that the wind speed exceeds a preset threshold, the anemometer 19 sends a first signal to the controller. After receiving the first signal, the controller sends a second signal to the drive motor. After receiving the second signal, the drive motor drives the second winch 11 to rotate to loosen the first connecting line 12, and drives the first winch 10 to rotate to pull the horizontal crossbar 2 to be parallel to the vertical pole 1 through the second connecting line 13.

[0065] Optionally, the controller may be a programmable logic controller (PLC).

[0066] From the above, it can be seen that when the anemometer 19 detects that the current wind speed exceeds the preset threshold, it can send a first signal to the controller, so that the controller sends a second signal to the drive motor, triggering the drive motor to control the second winch 11 to rotate, so that the first connecting line 12 is in a relaxed state, so as to adjust the position of the horizontal cross bar 2, and drive the first winch 10 to rotate, so that the second connecting line 13 pulls the horizontal cross bar 2 to be parallel to the vertical pole 1, so as to achieve the purpose of retracting the antenna 4 and prevent the antenna 4, the horizontal cross bar 2 and the rotating rod 3 from being damaged when the ambient wind speed is too high.

[0067] In a possible implementation, the third fixed pulley 7 is fixed to the end of the horizontal cross bar 2 through a support rod, and the rotation angle of the support rod when it rotates clockwise to a position parallel to the horizontal cross bar 2 is within a range of 30 to 60 degrees. That is, the setting angle of the third fixed pulley 7 is 30-60 degrees, for example, the setting angle of the third fixed pulley 7 can be 45 degrees.

[0068] In a possible implementation, the tensioning adjustment mechanism also includes a tensioning wheel 14, which is fixed to the preset installation plane. The other end of the first connecting line 12 passes through the tensioning wheel 14, the fifth fixed pulley 9 and the fourth fixed pulley 8 in sequence, and is fixed to the other end of the antenna 4.

[0069] It can be seen from this that in order to facilitate tightening the first connecting line 12 and prevent the rotating rod 3 from shaking, the other end of the first connecting line 12 can also be led out from the corresponding second capstan 11, pass through the tensioning wheel 14 arranged on one side of the second capstan 11, and then pass through the fifth fixed pulley 9 and the fourth fixed pulley 8 in turn.

[0070] In one possible implementation, a first stopper 15 is fixed at the connection position between the vertical pole 1 and the horizontal cross bar 2, and the first stopper 15 is located below the horizontal cross bar 2. In this way, after the antenna pole holding device of the disclosed embodiment is installed on the top of the floor 22, the first stopper 15 can rotate the horizontal cross bar 2 from a direction perpendicular to the ground and pointing to the sky to a direction parallel to the ground, with a rotation angle of 90°.

[0071] It can be seen from this that in the embodiments of the present disclosure, a first stop block 15 can be set under the horizontal cross bar 2 to prevent the horizontal cross bar 2 from falling when the second connecting line 13 becomes loose when adjusting the angle of the horizontal cross bar 2, or when the second connecting line 13 becomes loose due to a failure of the first winch 10, thereby improving the stability of the device performance.

[0072] In a possible implementation, a second stopper 16 is fixed at the connection position between the rotating rod 3 and the horizontal cross bar 2, and the second stopper 16 is located on the side of the rotating rod 3 close to the vertical pole 1 (i.e., the inner side of the rotating rod 3). In this way, after the antenna pole holding device of the embodiment of the present disclosure is installed on the top 22 of the floor, the horizontal cross bar 2 and the rotating rod 3 can rotate at an angle from parallel to the ground to perpendicular to the ground and pointing to the ground, that is, the rotation angle is 90°.

[0073] It can be seen that in the embodiment of the present disclosure, a second stopper 16 can be provided on the inner side of the rotating rod 3 to prevent the rotating rod 3 from falling when the first connecting line 12 becomes loose when adjusting the angle of the rotating rod 3, or when the first connecting line 12 becomes loose due to a failure of the second winch 11, thereby improving the stability of the device performance.

[0074] In one possible implementation, the antenna pole holding device further includes at least one rotating platform 17, which is fixedly connected to a support structure provided on the preset installation plane, and the rotating platform 17 is connected to the vertical pole 1 via a tapered roller bearing, and the vertical pole 1 is rotatably connected to the preset installation plane.

[0075] Among them, since the rotating platform 17 is connected to the vertical pole 1 through a tapered roller bearing, and the vertical pole 1 is rotatably connected to the preset installation plane, the vertical pole 1 can be rotated to place the horizontal crossbar 2, the rotating rod 3 and the antenna 4 at different positions on the preset installation plane.

[0076] In addition, the supporting structure may be a side wall 23 (also referred to as a parapet) provided on a preset installation plane. If the antenna pole holding device provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure is installed on the top 22 of a floor, the rotating platform 17 is fixedly connected to the side wall 23 provided on the top 22 of the floor. Figure 2 As shown, the horizontal crossbar 2, the rotating rod 3 and the antenna 4 can be placed above the side wall 23 or on the top of the floor 22 by rotating the vertical pole 1. When the horizontal crossbar 2, the rotating rod 3 and the antenna 4 are placed above the side wall 23, the antenna 4 enters a normal working mode; when the horizontal crossbar 2, the rotating rod 3 and the antenna 4 are placed on the top of the floor 22, the antenna 4 maintenance and debugging personnel (i.e., network optimization personnel) can debug and repair the antenna 4.

[0077] However, the pole devices in the prior art are all mounted on the wall, and the adjustment of the main coverage angle of the RF optimization antenna 4 requires tower workers to climb the pole and adjust it manually, which poses certain personal safety risks. In addition, since the antenna 4 device is hung on the wall-mounted pole and placed outside the parapet, the optimizer standing inside the parapet cannot accurately observe the main coverage direction of the antenna 4. During RF optimization, manual adjustments are required multiple times to seek the best coverage angle, which results in low work efficiency. In addition, conventional RF optimization requires the participation of multiple people such as tower workers and optimizers, and the labor cost of RF optimization is high.

[0078] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the rotating table 17 is fixedly connected to the parapet, and the rotating table 17 is connected to the vertical pole 1 through a tapered roller bearing, and the vertical pole 1 is rotatably connected to the top 22 of the floor. In this way, the network optimization personnel in the parapet can achieve omnidirectional precise adjustment of the main coverage direction of the antenna 4 by rotating the vertical pole 1, and when the antenna 4 fails and needs maintenance, the network optimization personnel can rotate the vertical pole 1 alone, and rotate the horizontal cross bar 2, the rotating rod 3 and the antenna 4 into the parapet for radio frequency optimization. There is no need for tower workers to climb up the pole, which eliminates the safety hazards of personnel exposed at high altitudes, improves safety performance, and saves human resources.

[0079] In a possible implementation manner, the antenna pole holding device further includes a hand-crank mechanism, which includes a handle 18, a driving gear ring 20 and a driven gear ring 21, wherein the driven gear ring 21 is fixed to one of the rotating platforms 17, and the teeth of the driven gear ring 21 are distributed around the vertical pole 1, the driving gear ring 20 is meshed with the driven gear ring 21, and the end of the handle 18 is fixedly connected to the driving gear ring 20. Optionally, the driven gear ring 21 and the driving gear ring 20 form an angle of 90 degrees.

[0080] Among them, Figure 4 As shown, the handle 18 is fixedly connected to the driving gear ring 20, and the driven gear ring 21 is fixed on a rotating platform 17, and the driving gear ring 20 is meshed with the driven gear ring 21. Then, by cranking the handle 18, the driving gear ring 20 can be driven to rotate, thereby rotating the driven gear ring 21, and then rotating the rotating platform 17. The rotating platform 17 is connected to the vertical pole 1 through a tapered roller bearing, so that the vertical pole 1 can be driven to rotate, thereby changing the positions of the horizontal cross bar 2, the rotating rod 3 and the antenna 4, realizing omnidirectional precise adjustment of the main coverage direction of the antenna 4, and facilitating the rotation of the antenna 4 to a position convenient for maintenance.

[0081] In a possible implementation manner, the antenna pole holding device further includes a binocular vision device, the binocular vision device is fixed on the antenna 4, and the first lens 24 and the second lens 25 of the binocular vision device are arranged on the antenna 4 away from the side of the rotating rod 3 (such as Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown);

[0082] The binocular vision device converts the images captured by the first lens 24 and the second lens 25 into the coverage range and signal heat map of the antenna 4, and sends the coverage range and signal heat map of the antenna 4 to the terminal device for display.

[0083] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the binocular vision device can convert the two-dimensional image captured by the first lens 24 and the second lens 25 into a three-dimensional depth map through a stereoscopic vision algorithm, thereby obtaining the coverage range and signal heat map of the antenna 4 according to the three-dimensional depth map, and then sending the coverage range and signal heat map of the antenna 4 to the terminal device for display. In this way, the antenna 4 maintenance and debugging personnel can adjust the angle of the antenna 4 according to the coverage range and signal heat map of the antenna 4 displayed on the terminal device, so that the coverage area of ​​the antenna 4 meets the requirements.

[0084] It can be seen that the embodiments of the present disclosure can display the coverage area and signal strength of antenna 4 in a three-dimensional real scene based on machine vision and regional algorithms, which solves the problem that the best coverage angle of antenna 4 cannot be determined in traditional optimization and can only be continuously tried by exhaustive method, and changes the problem of low efficiency of manually adjusting the coverage angle of antenna 4 in traditional RF optimization.
