DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] The technical solution of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described in the present application are only a part of the embodiments, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments provided in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work belong to the protection scope of the present application.

[0039] Reference to "embodiments" in this application means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in conjunction with the embodiments may be included in at least one embodiment of the present application. The appearance of the phrase in various locations in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it mutually exclusive, independent, or alternative to other embodiments. It can be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described in this application can be combined with other embodiments.

[0040] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of this application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish different objects, rather than to describe a specific order. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example: a component or device including one or more parts is not limited to the one or more parts listed, but optionally includes one or more parts that are not listed but inherent to the exemplified product, or one or more parts that it should have based on the described function.

[0041] The shell of an electronic device is assembled with multiple structural parts. For example, the shell of a mobile phone includes a middle frame and a back cover. In life, mobile phones are inevitably immersed in liquids. Since mobile phones are assembled with accessories such as a middle frame and a back cover, there are gaps between the accessories. Moisture can easily penetrate into the circuit inside the mobile phone through the gaps, causing a short circuit in the circuit, which can cause the mobile phone to not work properly. With the increasing requirements for waterproofing of electronic devices, such as the need to support IP68 level waterproofing, the design of the middle frame structure is particularly important. For example, the present application proposes that a relatively large area of ​​connection surface needs to be reserved on the surface of the middle frame structure facing the back cover, which is bonded to the back cover to improve the waterproof performance between the middle frame and the back cover.

[0042] For the requirement of reserving a relatively large connection surface on the surface of the middle frame structure facing the back cover, an integrated middle frame can be used. This solution can have a better adhesive surface width to ensure waterproofness. In some scenarios, the middle frame is made of metal and serves as an antenna radiator. The integrated middle frame is made of metal and is compatible with the relatively large bonding area between the middle frame and the back cover. The cost and weight of the integrated middle frame will be larger.

[0043] The present application provides an electronic device 1000 that is compatible with waterproof design requirements and communication functions, and reduces cost and weight.

[0069] This embodiment does not specifically limit the number of the bracket extension parts 820. Optionally, the number of the bracket extension parts 820 is 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.

[0070] The support body 810 and the support extension 820 are integrally formed or separately formed. The support extension 820 is disposed on one side or multiple sides of the support body 810. The support body 810 and the support extension 820 are fixedly connected.

[0074] Optionally, at least part of the antenna radiator 11 is disposed on the bracket extension 820. The bracket extension 820 provides a bearing structure for the antenna radiator 11, so as to facilitate the stable fixation of the antenna radiator 11 in the electronic device 1000, and also facilitate the shape of the antenna radiator 11 to be stable and not easily deformed by external forces in scenarios such as transportation, installation, and use.

[0075] In this embodiment, a portion of the antenna radiator 11 is disposed on the bracket extension 820, and another portion of the antenna radiator 11 is disposed on the bracket main body 810. When the bracket extension 820 is disposed in the slot 332, a portion of the antenna radiator 11 disposed on the bracket extension 820 is also disposed in the slot 332. With such a design, the middle frame 300 can ensure that the connection surface 328 has a relatively large width (or area) to be bonded to the back cover 400, thereby improving the waterproof and dustproof performance and bonding firmness of the electronic device 1000, and can also ensure that there is a large space inside the middle frame 300 to set the circuit board 600, the bracket assembly 800, the antenna radiator 11, etc. The material of the middle frame 300 and the provision of the slot 332 can reduce the cost and weight. The antenna radiator 11 and the bracket extension 820 are disposed in the slot 332, which is conducive to further increasing the antenna clearance and further making the antenna module 100 and the middle frame 300 compactly designed.

[0076] Optionally, the width of the connecting surface 328 in the first direction is greater than or equal to 1.5 mm, providing a relatively large bonding area between the middle frame 300 and the back cover 400, thereby improving the waterproof and dustproof performance. Wherein, the first direction is the direction from the inner peripheral surface 325 to the outer peripheral surface 326. Further, the width of the connecting surface 328 in the first direction includes but is not limited to any one of 1.5 mm, 1.6 mm, 1.7 mm, 1.8 mm, 1.9 mm, 2.0 mm, 2.1 mm, 2.2 mm, 2.3 mm, 2.4 mm, 2.5 mm, 2.6 mm, 2.7 mm, 2.8 mm, 2.9 mm, 3 mm, etc. or any data between the above data.

[0077] Furthermore, the positions on the bracket extension portion 820 and the bracket main body 810 both serve as the bearing positions of the antenna radiator 11, or the metal routing layout area, which can increase the wiring area of ​​the antenna radiator 11 to increase the antenna current distribution area and improve the antenna performance; in addition, the wiring width of the antenna radiator 11 is increased, which can reduce the wiring length of the antenna radiator 11, thereby reducing the size occupied by the antenna radiator 11 in the length direction, which is beneficial for setting a larger number of antenna modules 100 on the frame 320.

[0078] In another optional embodiment, please refer to Figure 6 , the entire antenna radiator 11 is disposed on the bracket extension 820. The entire antenna radiator 11 is located in the slot 332 along with the bracket extension 820, which is beneficial to further increase the antenna clearance and further improve the compactness between the antenna module 100 and the middle frame 300.

Among them, the bracket body 810 is arranged opposite to the circuit board 600, and the metal wiring of the antenna radiator 11, the flexible circuit board 600, etc. can be arranged on the bracket body 810. Optionally, the bracket body 810 is located between the circuit board 600 and the back cover 400.

[0082] The material of the bracket assembly 800 in this embodiment can be an insulating material.

[0083] In an alternative implementation, see Figure 7 , the bracket main body 810 and the bracket extension 820 are an integral structure. Specifically, the bracket extension 820 is a protruding portion protruding from one side of the bracket main body 810. In this embodiment, the bracket extension 820 is protrudingly provided on one side of the bracket main body 810, so that the size of the bracket extension 820 is slightly smaller than the size of the slot 332, so as to facilitate insertion into the slot 332 of the middle frame 300; the provision of the bracket extension 820 can increase the bearing area on the bracket main body 810, and when the metal wiring is provided on the bracket main body 810 as the antenna radiator 11, the area of ​​the antenna radiator 11 that can be provided is increased, so that it is beneficial to increase the distance between the antenna radiator 11 and other electronic devices, that is, to increase the antenna clearance and improve the antenna performance. It can also ensure that there is a large bonding area between the middle frame 300 and the back cover 400, while further reducing the space occupied by the antenna radiator 11 and the middle frame 300.

[0084] Optional, see Figure 7 and Figure 8 The antenna radiator 11 includes a first sub-radiating portion 11a and a second sub-radiating portion 11b. The first sub-radiating portion 11a and the second sub-radiating portion 11b are two parts of the antenna radiator 11, wherein the first sub-radiating portion 11a and the second sub-radiating portion 11b are an integrated structure.

[0085] The first sub-radiating portion 11a is disposed on the bracket main body 810. In other words, the first sub-radiating portion 11a is the portion of the antenna radiator 11 disposed on the bracket main body 810. The second sub-radiating portion 11b is disposed on the bracket extension portion 820. In other words, the second sub-radiating portion 11b is the portion of the antenna radiator 11 disposed on the bracket extension portion 820.

[0086] At least a portion of the second sub-radiating portion 11 b and at least a portion of the bracket extending portion 820 are located in the slot 332 .

[0087] In this embodiment, a bracket extension portion 820 is provided on one side of the bracket main body portion 810, and the size of the bracket extension portion 820 is designed to be slightly smaller than the slot 332, so that the second sub-radiating portion 11b of the antenna radiator 11 is provided on the bracket extension portion 820, so that the bracket extension portion 820 carries the second sub-radiating portion 11b and is provided in the slot 332. If the area of ​​the antenna radiator 11 remains unchanged, the distance between the first sub-radiating portion 11a and other electronic components on the circuit board 600 can be increased, or in other words, the spacing between the second sub-radiator and other electronic components on the circuit board 600 is increased, thereby increasing the working clearance space of the antenna radiator 11 and improving the working efficiency of the antenna module 100. On the other hand, due to the provision of the bracket main body portion 810, the area of ​​the region on the bracket assembly 800 for providing the antenna radiator 11 is increased. If the width of the antenna radiator 11 is increased while the area of ​​the antenna radiator 11 remains unchanged, the length of the antenna radiator 11 can be reduced, and more antenna modules 100 can be arranged in the middle frame 300. The above improvements can also ensure that the connection surface 328 of the middle frame 300 has a relatively wide width, and thus the connection surface 328 of the middle frame 300 has a relatively large bonding area, forming a large bonding area with the back cover 400, and the connection surface 328 of the middle frame 300 is annular.

[0088] During the assembly process, the bracket extension portion 820 can be first aligned with the position of the slot 332 and installed in the slot 332, and then the bracket main body 810 can be installed in the installation space 320a, and then the bracket main body 810 can be fixed to the circuit board 600 or the middle plate 310 by screws.

[0089] In another alternative embodiment, see Fig. 9 The support body 810 and the support extension 820 are two independent structural members. The support assembly 800 further includes a connecting member 830. The connecting member 830 connects the support extension 820 and the support body 810.

[0090] Optionally, the connecting member 830 includes but is not limited to a screw or the like.

[0091] The size of the bracket extension portion 820 is relatively small, and the size of the bracket main body 810 is relatively large. Furthermore, the size of the bracket extension portion 820 is similar to the size of the antenna radiator 11.

[0092] Optionally, a portion of the bracket extension 820 is disposed in the slot 332 , and another portion of the bracket extension 820 is located in the installation space 320 a .

[0093] For further information, see Fig. 9 and Fig.10, all or most of the antenna radiator 11 is disposed on the bracket extension portion 820 . At least a portion of the antenna radiator 11 and at least a portion of the bracket extension portion 820 are located in the slot 332 .

[0094] If multiple bracket extensions 820 are respectively arranged on both sides of the bracket main body 810 and are all integrally formed with the bracket main body 810, it is difficult to insert the multiple bracket extensions 820 into the corresponding slots 332 respectively. Based on this, this embodiment sets at least one bracket extension 820 and the bracket main body 810 as a split structure. On the one hand, during installation, the independent bracket extension 820 can be inserted into the slot 332 separately, and then the bracket main body 810 and the bracket extension 820 integral therewith are respectively installed in the corresponding slots 332 and the installation space 320a, so as to realize the installation of multiple bracket extensions 820 in multiple corresponding slots 332 respectively.

[0095] In addition, in the case where a single antenna module 100 needs to be repaired or replaced due to damage, a separate bracket extension 820 is provided to carry the antenna radiator 11, so that the efficiency and cost of repairing or replacing the corresponding single antenna module 100 can be improved without replacing the entire bracket assembly 800.

[0096] In this embodiment, at least one slot wall of the slot 332 is an inclined wall. The angle between the inclined wall and the normal direction of the bracket body 810 is greater than 0° and less than 90°. Optionally, the normal direction of the bracket body 810 is the thickness direction of the electronic device 1000, that is, the Z direction.

[0097] In an alternative embodiment, see Figure 5 , the slot 332 has a first side wall 330 and a second side wall 331 located between the opening 327 and the slot bottom wall 329. The first side wall 330 and the second side wall 331 are arranged relatively opposite to each other along the Z direction. Among them, the first side wall 330 is relatively close to the connecting surface 328. The first side wall 330 is an inclined wall. Taking the plane where the circuit board 600 is located as a reference plane, the plane where the circuit board 600 is located is located on the side of the first side wall 330 away from the connecting surface 328. The end of the first side wall 330 close to the opening 327 is farther away from the plane where the circuit board 600 is located than the end of the first side wall 330 close to the slot bottom wall 329. In this way, the bracket extension 820 can be inserted into the slot 332 along the inclined direction to reduce the difficulty of inserting the bracket extension 820 into the slot 332 and increase the smoothness of inserting the bracket extension 820 into the slot 332.

[0098] Optionally, the angle between the first side wall 330 and the plane where the bracket main body 810 is located is greater than 0° and less than 90°. Furthermore, the angle between the first side wall 330 and the plane where the bracket main body 810 is located is greater than 10° and less than 60°. If the angle between the first side wall 330 and the plane where the bracket main body 810 is located is too small, the bracket extension 820 needs to extend into the slot 332 along a direction close to the lateral direction. However, since the installation space 320a is also provided with a circuit board 600 and some electronic devices are also provided on the circuit board 600, the existence of these structures makes it impossible for the bracket main body 810 to sink to a deeper position, which makes it difficult for the bracket extension 820 to sink to a deeper position and be installed horizontally to the slot 332, which makes it difficult for the main bracket extension 820 to be inserted into the slot 332. If the angle between the first side wall 330 and the plane where the bracket main body 810 is located is too large, the space occupied by the slot 332 along the Z direction will be relatively large, resulting in a relatively small thickness between the first side wall 330 of the slot 332 and the connecting surface 328, which is not conducive to the structural strength requirements of the middle frame 300.

[0099] Furthermore, the angle between the first side wall 330 and the plane where the bracket main body 810 is located is greater than 20° and less than 30°. By designing the angle between the first side wall 330 and the plane where the bracket main body 810 is located to be greater than 20° and less than 30°, the bracket extension 820 does not need to be sunk to a deeper position and installed horizontally to the slot 332, so that the main bracket extension 820 can be smoothly inserted into the slot 332; and the thickness between the first side wall 330 and the connecting surface 328 of the slot 332 is not relatively too small, resulting in the problem of low structural strength of the middle frame 300.

[0100] For the first optional implementation, please refer to Figure 4a , Figure 4b and Figure 5 , the second side wall 331 may be a plane. Furthermore, the surface of the second side wall 331 is parallel to the surface of the bracket main body 810. The bracket extension 820 may be inserted into the slot 332 along the first side wall 330. The space between the second side wall 331 and the first side wall 330 is larger than the size of the bracket extension 820, so that the slot 332 has enough space, and there is no restriction on the installation direction of the bracket extension 820 inserted into the slot 332. In addition, the bracket extension 820 also has a certain amount of space for movement after being inserted into the slot 332, so that the bracket extension 820 has a certain amount of room for movement when it is subsequently fixed to the bracket main body 810 or fixed to the middle plate 310 (or circuit board 600), so as to avoid problems such as jamming.

[0101] Further, the present application does not limit the relative position of the circuit board 600 and the slot 332. Optionally, the edge of the circuit board 600 can be arranged in the slot 332. Optionally, the edge of the circuit board 600 can be arranged outside the slot 332.

[0102] Optionally, the inner circumference 325 of the frame 320 is provided with a step surface facing the back cover 400. The step surface is used to support the edge of the circuit board 600. The slot 332 can be processed and extended by processing the step surface toward the side where the outer circumference 326 of the frame 320 is located, so that the second side wall 331 is arranged coplanar with the step surface, which makes the processing of the slot 332 easier. Of course, in other embodiments, the second side wall 331 can also be arranged non-coplanar with the step surface.

[0103] Furthermore, an inclined first side wall 330 and a groove bottom wall 329 are processed on the frame 320 to form a slot 332 .

[0104] During the assembly process, the bracket main body 810 and the bracket extension 820 are interconnected as a whole. The bracket extension 820 is inserted into the slot 332 along the first side wall 330 at an angle, and the bracket main body 810 is fixed to the circuit board 600 (or the middle plate 310). Take the bracket main body 810 and the bracket extension 820 as a separate structure as an example. The bracket extension 820 is inserted into the slot 332 along the first side wall 330 at an angle, and the edge of the bracket extension 820 abuts against the bottom wall 329 of the groove, and the bracket main body 810 is installed in the installation space 320a, and the bracket main body 810 and the bracket extension 820 are fixed together on the circuit board 600 (or the middle plate 310).

[0105] For the second optional implementation, please refer to Fig.11 , the second side wall 331 may be an inclined surface. Specifically, the opening 327 of the slot 332 is provided on the inner circumference 325 of the frame 320. And the opening 327 is located between the circuit board 600 and the connection surface 328. The surface where the second side wall 331 is located may be nearly parallel to the surface where the first side wall 330 is located. Alternatively, the space formed by the first side wall 330 and the second side wall 331 may be adapted to the shape of the bracket extension 820, and the space formed by the first side wall 330 and the second side wall 331 may be slightly larger than the size of the bracket extension 820 to avoid the bracket extension 820 from getting stuck during assembly and fixing. In other words, the slot 332 is an inclined slot. The inclination angle of the slot 332 is greater than 0° and less than 90°. Further, the inclination angle of the slot 332 is greater than 10° and less than 60°. Further, the inclination angle of the slot 332 is greater than 20° and less than 30°.

[0106] During the assembly process, the bracket main body 810 and the bracket extension 820 are interconnected as one. The bracket extension 820 is inserted into the slot 332 along the slot 332 at an angle, and the bracket main body 810 is fixed to the circuit board 600 (or the middle plate 310). Take the bracket main body 810 and the bracket extension 820 as a separate structure as an example. The bracket extension 820 is inserted into the slot 332 along the slot 332 at an angle. At this time, the second side wall 331 can provide support for the bracket extension 820, and then the bracket main body 810 is installed in the installation space 320a, and the bracket main body 810 and the bracket extension 820 are fixed together on the circuit board 600 (or the middle plate 310).

[0107] Optional, see Figure 4a , Figure 4b , Figure 7 and Fig. 9 One side of the bracket extension part 820 is connected to the bracket main body 810 , and the other side of the bracket extension part 820 is inclined and extends toward the side where the circuit board 600 is located to the slot 332 . The antenna radiator 11 is disposed on the bracket extension part 820 .

[0108] In other words, see Figure 4a , Figure 4b , Figure 7 and Fig. 9 , the bracket extension portion 820 is connected to the bracket main body 810 in a bent manner. When the bracket extension portion 820 and the bracket main body 810 are an integral structure, the bracket extension portion 820 is a protrusion extending downwardly from the edge of the bracket main body 810, so that the bracket extension portion 820 can be inserted into the slot 332 during the downward installation of the bracket main body 810. The angle between the bracket extension portion 820 and the bracket main body 810 is the same as or similar to the angle between the first side wall 330 and the plane where the bracket main body 810 is located, and the angle difference is less than or equal to 5°.

[0109] When the bracket extension 820 and the bracket main body 810 are separate structures, the bracket extension 820 is tilted in the assembly slot 332 and is tilted to the edge of the bracket main body 810. Further, the edge of the bracket main body 810 and the edge of the bracket extension 820 can be mutually embedded. The angle between the bracket extension 820 and the bracket main body 810 is the same as or similar to the angle between the first side wall 330 and the plane where the bracket main body 810 is located, and the angle difference is less than or equal to 5°.

[0110] The present application does not specifically limit the width of the bracket extension portion 820 . It should be noted that the length of the slot 332 is greater than the length of the bracket extension portion 820 .

[0111] Optional, see Figure 4a , Figure 4b , the orthographic projection of the bracket extension 820 in the first direction covers a portion of the circuit board 600. In this way, the bracket extension 820 and the circuit board 600 are spatially overlapped in the thickness direction of the electronic device 1000, thereby forming an accommodation space between the bracket extension 820 and the circuit board 600.

[0112] See also Figure 4a , Figure 4b , the electronic device 1000 also includes an antenna shrapnel 840. The antenna shrapnel 840 is arranged in the accommodating space. One end of the antenna shrapnel 840 is arranged on the circuit board 600, and the other end of the antenna shrapnel 840 elastically abuts against the antenna radiator 11 on the bracket extension 820. Further, a feed source, a reference ground, etc. are provided on the circuit board 600, and the number of antenna shrapnel 840 is one or more. Optionally, the antenna shrapnel 840 is a feeding shrapnel, which is fixed on the circuit board 600 and electrically connected to the feed source, and the other end of the feeding shrapnel elastically abuts against the feeding point of the antenna radiator 11. Optionally again, the antenna shrapnel 840 is a grounding shrapnel, which is fixed on the circuit board 600 and electrically connected to the reference ground, and the other end of the grounding shrapnel elastically abuts against the grounding point of the antenna radiator 11. The above forms an antenna path.

[0113] In general technology, the orthographic projection of the antenna radiator 11 in the first direction in the installation space 320a is located in the area where the circuit board 600 is located, resulting in a relatively small clearance of the antenna radiator 11. In the present application, the bracket extension 820 and at least part of the orthographic projection of the antenna radiator 11 on the bracket extension 820 in the first direction are located outside the circuit board 600, which can effectively increase the clearance space of the antenna radiator 11 and improve the antenna performance of the antenna radiator 11.

[0114] Of course, in other embodiments, the orthographic projection of the bracket extension portion 820 in the first direction may not overlap with the circuit board 600 , so as to further increase the clearance of the antenna radiator 11 .

[0115] See also Figure 4a , Figure 4b The frame 320 also has the aforementioned outer peripheral surface 326 and a connecting surface 328. The outer peripheral surface 326 is disposed opposite to the inner peripheral surface 325. The connecting surface 328 is connected between the outer peripheral surface 326 and the inner peripheral surface 325.

[0116] The electronic device 1000 further includes the aforementioned back cover 400 and an adhesive layer (not shown). The back cover 400 is disposed opposite to the connection surface 328. The adhesive layer is attached to the connection surface 328 and / or the back cover 400. The adhesive layer is bonded between the back cover 400 and the connection surface 328.

[0117] Optionally, one side of the adhesive layer is attached to the connection surface 328, and the other side of the adhesive layer is attached to the back cover 400. The adhesive layer includes but is not limited to foam adhesive. The adhesive layer can not only achieve adhesion between the back cover 400 and the connection surface 328 of the middle frame 300, but also achieve water absorption between the connection surface 328 of the back cover 400 and the middle frame 300.

[0118] As mentioned above, the frame 320 includes a top frame 321 , a first side frame 322 , a bottom frame 324 and a second side frame 323 which are connected in sequence.

[0119] In an alternative embodiment, see Fig.12 and Fig.13 The number of the bracket extension parts 820 is multiple, and the multiple bracket extension parts 820 include a first extension part 821 and a second extension part 822.

[0120] Optionally, the first side edge of the bracket body 810 is disposed opposite to the first side frame 322. The top edge of the bracket body 810 is disposed opposite to the top frame 321. The second side edge of the bracket body 810 is disposed opposite to the second side frame 323.

[0121] A first extension portion 821 is disposed on the top edge of the bracket main body 810 . A second extension portion 822 is disposed on the second side edge of the bracket main body 810 .

[0122] In an alternative embodiment, see Fig.14 , Fig.15 and Fig.16 , no extension portion is provided on the side where the first side edge of the bracket main body 810 is located. The first extension portion 821 is an integral structure with the bracket main body 810. The second extension portion 822 is a separate structure from the bracket main body 810. Correspondingly, a first slot 333 is provided on the inner circumference 325 of the top frame 321, and a second slot 334 is provided on the inner circumference 325 of the second side frame 323.

[0123] Optionally, the first extension portion 821 and the second extension portion 822 are respectively provided with antenna radiators 11 of different antenna modules 100 .

[0124] Thus, during the assembly process, the second extension part 822 can be first inserted obliquely into the second slot 334. Then the first extension part 821 is inserted into the first slot 333, and the bracket body 810 is installed in the installation space 320a, and the second extension part 822, the bracket body 810, the circuit board 600, and the middle plate 310 are fixed. The above design of the bracket assembly 800 makes it easier to install the bracket assembly 800 in the installation space 320a, and the size of the bracket assembly 800 is adapted to the size of the installation space 320a, so as to avoid the situation of being stuck, unable to be installed, or being able to be installed but resulting in a lot of space waste.

[0125] For further optional information, see Fig.17 There are multiple antenna modules 100 , and the multiple antenna modules 100 include a first antenna module 110 , a second antenna module 120 and a third antenna module 130 .

[0126] See also Fig.17 , the first antenna module 110 includes a first radiator 111. In other words, the antenna radiator 11 of the first antenna module 110 is the first radiator 111. A portion of the first radiator 111 is disposed on the first extension portion 821, and another portion of the first radiator 111 is disposed on the bracket body portion 810. Since the first extension portion 821 and the bracket body portion 810 are an integral structure, the first extension portion 821 is equivalent to a portion extending from the top edge of the bracket body portion 810. Generally, the first radiator 111 of the first antenna module 110 is disposed at a position close to the top edge of the bracket body portion 810. In this embodiment, the first radiator 111 of the first antenna module 110 can be disposed not only at a position close to the top edge of the bracket body portion 810, but also on the first extension portion 821. Compared with general technology, it can be further away from the circuit board 600. In other words, the bracket assembly 800 can provide more radiator wiring area for the first radiator 111 of the first antenna module 110.

[0127] It should be noted that, since the bracket extension 820 is a three-dimensional structure, the antenna radiator 11 is a thin layer structure compared to the bracket extension 820, so the antenna radiator 11 can be arranged on one surface, two surfaces, or three surfaces of the bracket extension 820, so that a larger area of ​​the antenna radiator 11 can be arranged on the bracket extension 820. In other words, the antenna radiator 11 can be bent or folded on the bracket extension 820 to increase the distance between the antenna radiator 11 and the circuit board 600, increase the antenna clearance, and improve the antenna performance.

[0128] The present application does not limit the specific supported frequency bands of the first antenna module 110. Optionally, the first antenna module 110 is used to support one or more of the MHB band, the N78 band, the LB band, the MH band, the GPS band, and the Wi-Fi band. For example, the frequency bands supported by the first antenna module 110 include but are not limited to the GPS-L1 band + the N78 band.

[0129] See also Fig.17 , the second antenna module 120 includes a second radiator 121. The second radiator 121 is disposed on the second extension portion 822. In other words, the antenna radiator 11 of the second antenna module 120 is the second radiator 121. Since the second extension portion 822 and the bracket body portion 810 are separate structures, the entirety of the second radiator 121 can be disposed on the second extension portion 822. Generally, the second radiator 121 of the second antenna module 120 is disposed at a position close to the top edge of the bracket body portion 810. In this embodiment, the second radiator 121 of the second antenna module 120 is disposed on the second extension portion 822, which can be further away from the circuit board 600 compared to general technology.

[0130] The present application does not limit the specific supported frequency bands of the second antenna module 120. Optionally, the second antenna module 120 is used to support one or more of the MHB frequency band, the N78 frequency band, the LB frequency band, the MH frequency band, the GPS frequency band, and the Wi-Fi frequency band. For example, the frequency bands supported by the second antenna module 120 include but are not limited to the LB frequency band + the MH frequency band.

[0131] See also Fig.17 The third antenna module 130 includes a third radiator 131. The third radiator 131 is disposed at a position of the bracket body 810 close to the first side.

[0132] The present application does not limit the specific supported frequency bands of the third antenna module 130. Optionally, the third antenna module 130 is used to support one or more of the MHB band, N78 band, LB band, MH band, GPS band, and Wi-Fi band. For example, the frequency bands supported by the third antenna module 130 include but are not limited to the LB band + GPS-L5 band + N78 band.

[0133] Of course, in other embodiments, the first side of the bracket main body 810 may also be provided with an integrated or split bracket extension portion 820 .

[0134] Of course, in other embodiments, a separate bracket extension portion 820 may also be provided on the top edge of the bracket main body 810 .

[0135] Of course, in other embodiments, an integrated bracket extension portion 820 may also be provided on the second side of the bracket main body 810 .

[0136] The present application also includes but is not limited to any one or more of the following embodiments:

[0137] See also Fig.17 The plurality of bracket extensions 820 further include a third extension 823. The third extension 823 is disposed at the top edge of the bracket body 810. The plurality of antenna modules 100 include a fourth antenna module 140. The fourth antenna module 140 includes a fourth radiator 141. A portion of the fourth radiator 141 is disposed at the third extension 823, and another portion of the fourth radiator 141 is disposed at a position of the bracket body 810 close to the top edge.

[0138] Optionally, the third extension portion 823 is spaced apart from the first extension portion 821. Further, the third extension portion 823 and the first extension portion 821 are respectively disposed on both sides of the sound outlet of the receiving hole.

[0139] If the third extension portion 823 and the bracket body 810 are an integral structure, the third extension portion 823 may refer to the first extension portion 821. If the third extension portion 823 and the bracket body 810 are separate structures, the third extension portion 823 may refer to the second extension portion 822.

[0140] The present application does not limit the specific supported frequency bands of the fourth antenna module 140.
