Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of antenna technology, and in particular to a hand-operated integrated protective portable antenna. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of satellite communication technology, the demand for protective portable antennas is becoming increasingly strong. Traditional portable communication antennas have the following limitations:

[0003] 1. If the traditional antenna drive part is to realize the integration of manual and electric rotation, a worm gear reducer needs to be added inside the drive. This situation leads to a significant decrease in transmission efficiency, while increasing the weight and volume of the drive, making the drive design more complicated and bulky.

[0004] 2. The traditional antenna polarization rotation part cannot integrate manual and automatic switching in a small structure, which increases the weight and volume of the antenna network part, making the network part design complicated and bloated.

[0005] 3. The traditional antenna surface design is relatively thick and heavy, and the panels cannot be interchangeable, which greatly reduces the applicability and reliability of the antenna surface.

[0006] 4. Traditional antennas cannot effectively provide electromagnetic protection. The main reason is that the antenna structure has poor sealing and there are no effective filtering measures inside, which results in the antenna being unable to be effectively protected.

[0007] In order to solve the shortcomings of traditional automatic portable communication antennas, a manual and automatic integrated protective portable antenna is designed. The antenna can be rotated manually and electrically, and can be quickly switched to left and right rotation by manual and electric switching. The antenna panel is designed to be light and thin, and the panels can be interchanged and installed. The antenna structure is sealed and the internal filtering device is used to effectively provide electromagnetic protection. The overall structure of the antenna is simple and light, which can be quickly disassembled and assembled, and has high applicability and reliability. Summary of the invention
