[0046] The example embodiments will be described in detail herein with reference to the attached drawings. In the following description, like reference numerals refer to like elements, unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. The following description of example embodiments is not representative of all possible embodiments consistent with the present application. Rather, it is merely intended to provide an example of apparatus and methods consistent with some aspects of the present application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0047] Figure 2 is a structural schematic diagram of an antenna connection module according to an example embodiment. As shown in Figure 2 , the antenna connection module comprises:

[0048] a cavity 101 comprising a first cavity wall having a first opening 101a and a second cavity wall opposite to the first cavity wall and having a second opening 101b;

[0049] a feed terminal 102 comprising a feed end 102a and a connecting end 102b connecting the feed end 102a, wherein the connecting end 102b is located between the first cavity wall and the second cavity wall; the feed end 102a is exposed outside the first opening for connecting with an antenna radiator;

[0050] a signal line 103 connecting the connecting end 102b through the second opening 101b for transmitting wireless signals outputted by the feed terminal 102.

[0051] The antenna connection module is applied to a mobile communication scene of a terminal device. The terminal device with the antenna connection module can connect an antenna radiator and a mainboard in the terminal device through the antenna connection module, so that the antenna can receive and transmit wireless signals to establish communication with a base station. The mainboard is provided with a processing module. The antenna radiator can receive and transmit wireless signals of various frequency bands. For example, the antenna radiator can receive and transmit wireless signals of B1, B3 and B39 frequency bands, and can also receive and transmit wireless signals of Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz frequency bands.

[0052] The antenna connection module has a cavity. The cavity has a receiving space for accommodating a feed connector and a signal line. In some embodiments, the feed connector can be fixed relative to the cavity to achieve a contact connection between a feed end of the feed connector and the antenna radiator. In other embodiments, the feed connector can also be movable relative to the cavity to achieve a flexible connection between the feed end of the feed connector and the antenna radiator.

[0053] The first cavity wall of the cavity has a first opening. The first opening is used for exposing the feed end of the feed connector. Before the antenna connection module is assembled between the antenna radiator and the mainboard, the exposed feed end is suspended. When the antenna connection module is assembled between the antenna radiator and the mainboard, the exposed feed end abuts against the antenna radiator to output wireless signals to the antenna radiator or receive wireless signals output by the antenna radiator.

[0054] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the first opening needs to be matched with the feed end, so that the feed end can be better exposed at the first opening. The matching of the first opening and the feed end can include that the shape of the first opening is matched with the shape of the feed end, for example, the shape of the first opening and the shape of the feed end can be set to be the same or similar. The matching of the first opening and the feed end can also include that the size of the first opening is matched with the size of the feed end, for example, the size of the first opening can be set to be greater than or equal to the size of the feed end.

[0055] The second cavity wall of the cavity is provided with a second opening for the signal line to pass through. Part of the signal line is located in the cavity and connected with the connection end. Another part of the signal line is exposed outside the cavity and can be connected with the mainboard. Thus, the wireless signals output by the feed connector can be transmitted to the mainboard through the signal line to realize the receiving and transmitting functions of the antenna.

[0056] Exemplarily, the connection mode of the connection end of the feed connector and the signal line includes welding or adhesion through conductive glue, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0057] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, taking the antenna radiator of a Wi-Fi antenna as an example, Figure 3 The simulation diagram of the Wi-Fi antenna is shown in FIG. 1. As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 3As shown, 301 is a feed line of the Wi-Fi antenna, and 302 is a ground return line of the Wi-Fi antenna. After debugging, the Wi-Fi antenna can realize Wi-Fi 2.4G and Wi-Fi 5G antennas without matching.

[0058] Figure 4 A schematic diagram of return loss of the Wi-Fi antenna radiating wireless signals is shown in FIG. 3. Figure 4 As shown, the return loss of the Wi-Fi antenna radiating 2.4G frequency wireless signals is -10.092dB, and the return loss of the Wi-Fi antenna radiating 5.37G frequency wireless signals is -14.619dB. It has been verified that the return loss of the Wi-Fi antenna at 2.4G and 5.37G frequencies can meet the antenna requirements.

[0059] Figure 5 A schematic diagram of total radiation efficiency of the Wi-Fi antenna radiating wireless signals is shown in FIG. 4. Figure 5 As shown, the total radiation efficiency of the Wi-Fi antenna radiating 2.392G frequency wireless signals is -9.1825dB, and the total radiation efficiency of the Wi-Fi antenna radiating 5.364G frequency wireless signals is -2.2033dB. It has been verified that the total radiation efficiency of the Wi-Fi antenna at 2.392G and 5.364G frequencies can meet the antenna requirements.

[0060] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the feeding end of the feeding connector in the antenna connection module can be connected to the antenna radiator, and the connecting end of the feeding connector is connected to the signal line, and the signal line is used to transmit the wireless signal output by the feeding connector. In this way, the feeding connector of the antenna connection module is connected to the antenna radiator, and the signal line of the antenna connection module is connected to the mainboard, so that the connection between the antenna radiator and the mainboard can be realized through the antenna connection module.

[0061] Compared with the existing antenna radiator connected to the adapter plate through a spring, and then connected to the mainboard through a signal line to realize the connection between the antenna radiator and the mainboard, the embodiments of the present disclosure do not need to set the adapter plate, and do not need to set the spring for connecting the adapter plate and the antenna radiator respectively, but only one antenna connection module can complete the connection, which can simplify the connection structure of the antenna radiator and the mainboard, and further reduce the antenna assembly steps and improve the antenna assembly efficiency. On the other hand, the space occupied by one antenna connection module in the terminal device is obviously smaller than the space occupied by the spring and the adapter plate required by the existing antenna connection in the terminal device, so that the embodiments of the present disclosure can save the space occupied by the terminal device and improve the space utilization rate of the terminal device.

[0062] In some embodiments, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 6, the antenna connection module comprises: Figure 2

[0063] ​a resilient member 104 is arranged between the connecting end 102b and the second cavity wall, and connects the signal line 103;

[0064] The feeding terminal 102 abuts against the antenna radiator, the feeding terminal 102 moves towards the second opening 101b, the resilient member 104 is deformed, and the contact between the feeding terminal 102 and the antenna radiator is stabilized based on the deformation recovery force.

[0065] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the resilient member connecting the signal line includes that the resilient member surrounds the signal line, or the resilient member is arranged on different sides of the signal line, for example, the resilient member is arranged on two or four sides of the signal line, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

[0066] The resilient member is used to support the feeding terminal when the feeding terminal does not abut against the antenna radiator, so that the feeding end of the feeding terminal is exposed outside the first opening, and is also used to enable the feeding terminal to move at the first opening relative to the cavity when the feeding terminal abuts against or leaves the antenna radiator. For example, based on the resilient member, the feeding terminal can move outside the cavity through the first opening, and can also move inside the cavity through the first opening.

[0067] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the size of the connecting end of the feeding terminal can be greater than the size of the first opening, so that when the feeding terminal moves at the first opening, the connecting end can be better located between the first cavity wall and the second cavity wall inside the cavity, and the situation that the feeding terminal moves out of the first opening due to the action of the resilient member can be reduced.

[0068] Exemplarily, the resilient member includes but is not limited to a spring.

[0069] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, when the feeding terminal abuts against the antenna radiator, the feeding terminal moves towards the second opening, the resilient member is compressed, and the contact between the feeding terminal and the antenna radiator is stabilized based on the compression deformation. That is, compared with the contact connection of the feeding terminal and the antenna radiator, the resilient stable connection of the feeding terminal and the antenna radiator can be realized based on the compression deformation of the resilient member in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the situation that the connection is separated due to the posture change or falling of the terminal device can be reduced, and the connection of the feeding terminal and the antenna radiator is more reliable.

[0070] In some embodiments, as Figure 6a shown, the cavity further includes:

[0071] a third cavity wall connecting the first cavity wall and the second cavity wall;

[0072] Both the first cavity wall and the third cavity wall include: a first insulating layer 101c facing the power supply connector and the interior of the cavity, and a first conductive layer 101d located around the insulating layer;

[0073] The second cavity wall is connected to the first conductive layer 101d.

[0074] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the first cavity wall and the third cavity wall are cavity walls with the same structure, and the first cavity wall and the third cavity wall can be integrally formed.

[0075] like Figure 6b As shown, the first cavity wall has a first end 11 and a second end 12, and the second cavity wall has a third end 13 disposed opposite to the first end 11 and a fourth end 14 disposed opposite to the second end 12. The third cavity wall connecting the first cavity wall and the second cavity wall may include: a cavity wall connecting the first end 11 of the first cavity wall and the third end 13 of the second cavity wall, and a cavity wall connecting the second end 12 of the first cavity wall and the fourth end 14 of the second cavity wall.

[0076] Both the first and third cavity walls mentioned above include: a first insulating layer facing the feed connector and the interior of the cavity, and a first conductive layer located around the insulating layer. In other words, both the first and third cavity walls include an inner insulating layer and a conductive outer layer. Thus, when the antenna radiator is connected to the motherboard to transmit and receive wireless signals, the insulating layer can isolate the feed connector and the first conductive layer, allowing the feed connector to transmit energy to the signal line to the maximum extent, thereby improving the performance of the antenna in transmitting and receiving wireless signals.

[0077] For example, the first insulating layer may be an insulating layer formed of plastic or rubber, and the first conductive layer may be a conductive layer formed of metal or alloy.

[0078] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG6, the second cavity wall includes: a second insulating layer 101e located at the second opening and in contact with the signal line, and a second conductive layer 101f located around the second insulating layer;

[0079] The second conductive layer 101f is connected to the first conductive layer 101d.

[0080] In this embodiment of the present disclosure, both the first cavity wall and the third cavity wall include a first insulating layer located between the power supply connector and the first conductive layer, for isolating the power supply connector and the first conductive layer; the second cavity wall includes a second insulating layer located between the signal line and the second conductive layer, for isolating the signal line and the second conductive layer.

[0081] In the process of assembling the antenna connection module, the cavity shell is first formed by integrally molding the first cavity wall and the third cavity wall. Then, the signal line is passed through the second opening of the second cavity wall and connected to the feed connector. Finally, the feed connector with the signal line connected is placed inside the cavity shell, and the second cavity wall and the cavity shell are welded to form a cavity that encloses the feed connector. The second cavity wall can be a cavity base. By welding the second cavity wall (cavity base) to the cavity shell, the assembly of the antenna module can be completed.

[0082] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the signal line and the second conductive layer can be isolated by the second insulating layer, so that when the antenna radiator is connected to the motherboard to realize wireless signal transmission and reception, the signal line can better transmit wireless signals and improve the performance of the antenna in transmitting and receiving wireless signals.

[0083] For example, the second insulating layer may be an insulating layer formed of plastic or rubber, and the second conductive layer may be a conductive layer formed of metal or alloy.

[0084] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6a As shown, the antenna connection module further includes:

[0085] The shielding layer 107 surrounds the signal line 103 and connects the second conductive layer 101f and the ground line.

[0086] The aforementioned shielding layer is made of metal or alloy. For example, the shielding layer is made of red copper or tin-plated copper. The shielding layer may be a braided layer formed by metal mesh weaving, which wraps around the signal line.

[0087] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the shielding layer can shield electromagnetic fields outside the antenna connection module, reduce the influence of electromagnetic fields outside the antenna connection module on the signal line, and can also shield wireless signals radiated outward by the signal line, reduce the influence of wireless signals radiated by the signal line on functional modules other than the antenna in the terminal device.

[0088] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG6, the antenna connection module further includes:

[0089] The conductive sheet 105 is connected to the grounding point of the first conductive layer 101d and the antenna radiator.

[0090] In this embodiment, the grounding point of the antenna radiator is connected to the first conductive layer via a conductive sheet. The first conductive layer is connected to the second conductive layer, and the shielding layer is connected to the second conductive layer and the ground wire. In other words, the grounding point of the antenna radiator can be grounded through the first conductive layer, the second conductive layer, and the shielding layer.

[0091] For example, the conductive sheet may be a conductive sheet formed of metal or alloy, and the embodiments disclosed herein are not limited thereto.

[0092] In some embodiments, the conductive sheet is a conductive elastic sheet.

[0093] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the conductive elastic sheet can be elastically deformed. When the terminal device collides due to falling, the connection between the first conductive layer and the antenna radiator is no longer a hard connection, but an elastic connection through the elastic deformation of the conductive elastic sheet, so that the connection between the first conductive layer and the antenna radiator is more reliable.

[0094] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 6, the antenna connection module further comprises:

[0095] An insulating sheet 106 is located between the first cavity wall and the second cavity wall and covers the second cavity wall.

[0096] The insulating sheet has a third opening for the signal line to pass through.

[0097] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the insulating sheet is used to isolate the signal line, the first conductive sheet and the second conductive layer, so that the signal line can better transmit wireless signals when the antenna radiator is connected to the mainboard to realize wireless signal transmission and reception, and the performance of the antenna in transmitting and receiving wireless signals is improved.

[0098] Exemplarily, the insulating sheet is an insulating sheet formed of polyethylene terephthalate (PET).

[0099] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the third opening for the signal line to pass through is provided on the insulating sheet, which can pass through the signal line without blocking the signal line under the isolation of the insulating sheet.

[0100] In some embodiments, the tail end of the signal line has a mainboard connector.

[0101] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the mainboard connector is used to connect with the socket on the mainboard, so as to connect the antenna connection module with the antenna radiator and the mainboard.

[0102] In some embodiments, the feeding connector is in the shape of T.

[0103] The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a terminal device, as shown in Figure 7 The terminal device comprises:

[0104] A frame 401;

[0105] An antenna radiator 402 is located on the frame 401.

[0106] A printed circuit board is located in the accommodation space surrounded by the frame.

[0107] The antenna connection module is connected to the antenna radiator through the feed terminal and connected to the main board through the signal line.

[0108] The terminal device can be a wearable electronic device and a mobile terminal, including a mobile phone, a notebook or a tablet computer, the wearable electronic device including a smart watch or a smart bracelet, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

[0109] The frame includes a middle frame carrying various functional modules in the terminal device and a bezel surrounding the outside of the middle frame. The antenna radiator can be arranged on the middle frame of the terminal device, and can also be arranged on the bezel of the terminal device, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

[0110] The antenna radiator can be formed by a laser direct structuring process (Laser-Direct-structuring) and can also be formed by a flexible circuit board process.

[0111] The embodiments of the present disclosure connect the feed terminal of the antenna connection module to the antenna radiator and connect the signal line of the antenna connection module to the main board, so that the connection between the antenna radiator and the main board can be realized through the antenna connection module. Compared with the existing antenna radiator connected to the adapter board through the spring, and then connected to the main board through the signal line to realize the connection between the antenna radiator and the main board, the embodiments of the present disclosure do not need to set the adapter board, and do not need to set the spring connecting the adapter board and the antenna radiator respectively, but only need one antenna connection module, which can simplify the connection structure of the antenna radiator and the main board, thereby reducing the antenna assembly steps and improving the antenna assembly efficiency. On the other hand, the space occupied by the antenna connection module in the terminal device is obviously smaller than the space occupied by the existing antenna connection spring and adapter board in the terminal device, thereby the embodiments of the present disclosure can save the space occupied by the terminal device and improve the space utilization of the terminal device.

[0112] It should be noted that the "first" and "second" in the embodiments of the present disclosure are only for description and distinction, and have no other specific meaning.
