Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] With the development of science and technology, people can perform short-distance or long-distance wireless communication with the help of an antenna, so that information transmission is more efficient and convenient. However, in the prior art, the information of the antenna is not transparent, and the user of an interactive terminal that interacts with the antenna is more likely to pay attention to the position and working state of the interactive terminal rather than the position and working state of the antenna itself, which prolongs the reaction and operation time of the user. For example, in the case of short-distance wireless communication, if the user does not easily notice the position of the antenna itself, it is not easy to directly place a mobile device as an interactive terminal to a position capable of short-distance wireless communication with the antenna, and the user may need to adjust the position of the mobile device multiple times. On the other hand, the antenna of a device often needs to be exposed outside the device in order to better receive and transmit signals, and the exposed antenna is often not aesthetically pleasing.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new antenna module, so that the information of the antenna module itself is more clearly presented, so as to reduce the reaction and operation time of the user. At the same time, a design of an antenna module that better combines the function of the antenna with the aesthetics of the device is also needed.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
[0026] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present specification, the following will briefly introduce the drawings needed to be used in the embodiment description. Obviously, the drawings in the following description are only some embodiments of the present specification, and those skilled in the art can also obtain other drawings according to these drawings without creative labor.
[0027] Figure 1 A perspective structural schematic diagram of the antenna module provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown;
[0028] Figure 2 An exploded view of the antenna module provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown;
[0029] Figure 3 A bottom view of the antenna module provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0030] The following description provides specific application scenarios and requirements of the present specification, which aims to enable those skilled in the art to manufacture and use the contents of the present specification. Various local modifications of the disclosed embodiments are apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein can be applied to other embodiments and applications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present specification. Therefore, the present specification is not limited to the shown embodiments, but to the widest scope consistent with the claims.
[0031] The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular example embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting. For example, singular forms "a", "an" and "the" are intended to mean one or more, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. As used herein, the terms "includes", "including", "has", "having" and / or "contains", "containing" means that the associated feature, integer, step, operation, element and / or component is present, but does not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components and / or groups thereof.
[0032] These and other features, and characteristics of the present specification, as well as the methods of operation and functions of the related elements of structure and the combination of parts and economies of manufacture, will become more apparent upon consideration of the following description and the appended claims with reference to the accompanying drawings. The current description is presented for purposes of illustration and description and is not intended to limit the scope of the specification. It is further understood that the drawings are not true to scale.
[0033] The flow diagrams herein illustrate the operations according to some embodiments of the present specification in terms of a number of individual operations. It should be apparent that the operations can be performed in an order other than that described. For example, the operations can be performed in reverse order, or in parallel. Additionally, one or more operations can be added to the flow diagrams. One or more operations can be removed from the flow diagrams.
[0034] In the present specification, the expression "X includes at least one of A, B, or C" means that X includes at least one of A, or X includes at least one of B, or X includes at least one of C. That is, X can include only A, B, or C, or any combination thereof, as well as other possible elements / elements. Any combination of the A, B, C can be A, B, C, AB, AC, BC, or ABC.
[0035] In the present specification, unless explicitly described, the association relationship between structures can be a direct association relationship or an indirect association relationship. For example, when describing "A is connected with B", unless it is explicitly described that A is directly connected with B, it should be understood that A can be directly connected with B, or A can be indirectly connected with B; for example, when describing "A is on B", unless it is explicitly described that A is directly on B (AB is adjacent and A is on B), it should be understood that A can be directly on B, or A can be indirectly on B (there are other elements between AB, and A is on B). By analogy.
[0036] In the prior art, the user of the interactive terminal interacting with the antenna is more likely to notice the position and working state of the interactive terminal, and less likely to notice the position and working state of the antenna itself, which prolongs the reaction and operation time of the user. For example, in the case of close-range wireless communication, if the user is not easy to notice the position of the antenna itself, it is not easy to directly place the mobile device as the interactive terminal to a position capable of close-range wireless communication with the antenna, and the user may need to adjust the position of the mobile device multiple times. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new antenna module, so that the information of the antenna module itself is more prominent, so as to reduce the reaction and operation time of the user.
[0037] The antenna module provided in the specification can have at least one of the functions of transmitting and receiving electromagnetic waves, so as to be capable of transmitting and / or receiving wireless signals when working. The antenna module can display information through the display assembly, for example, the display side of the display assembly can display working state information of the antenna module, identification information for identifying the function of the antenna module, and / or enterprise information related to the antenna module, etc., so that the display assembly can play a role of reminding, guiding and identifying.
[0038] The antenna module provided in the specification can transmit electromagnetic waves to send information to the outside world, or the antenna module can receive electromagnetic waves to receive information from the outside world. Of course, the antenna module can have both the functions of transmitting and receiving electromagnetic waves, so as to be capable of interacting with the outside world.
[0039] Figure 1 A perspective structural schematic diagram of the antenna module provided by the embodiment of the application is shown. Figure 2 An exploded view of the antenna module provided by the embodiment of the application is shown. Figure 3 A bottom view of the antenna module provided by the embodiment of the application is shown. As shown in the figure, Figures 1 to 3 The antenna module 1 includes a shell 10, an antenna assembly 300 and a display assembly 400. The shell 10 is provided with a containing space 101, and the shell 10 includes a fixed part 201 configured to be connected with an external device. The antenna assembly 300 is arranged in the containing space 101, and the antenna assembly 300 has a first interface part 301 extending from the shell 10. The display assembly 400 is arranged in the containing space 101, and includes a light emitting part 410 and a projection part 420. The light emitting part 410 includes a circuit board and a light source 403, and the light emitted during work is irradiated to the outside world through the light-transmitting pattern 421 on the projection part 420 and the shell 10.
[0040] The shell 10 can be configured such that the display side 401 of the display assembly 400 is externally visible. The shell 10 can protect the display assembly 400, reduce the risk of damage to the display assembly 400 due to external mechanical impact, and reduce the risk of dust and water droplets entering the interior of the display assembly 400. By providing the shell 10, the antenna module 1 can be placed or installed in an application scenario.
[0041] The antenna module 1 can display information through the display assembly 400 for external viewing. For example, the display side 401 of the display assembly 400 can display working status information of the antenna module 1, identification information for identifying the function of the antenna module 1, and / or enterprise information related to the antenna module 1, etc., thereby playing a role of reminding, guiding, and identification. Of course, the display assembly 400 can also display various decorative patterns to decorate the appearance of the antenna module 1.
[0042] The antenna assembly 300 can have the functions of transmitting and / or receiving electromagnetic waves, thereby being capable of transmitting and / or receiving wireless signals when working. In some embodiments, the antenna assembly 300 transmits wireless signals when working. In some embodiments, the antenna assembly 300 receives wireless signals when working. In other embodiments, the antenna assembly 300 both receives and transmits wireless signals when working.
[0043] In some embodiments, the antenna assembly 300 is an NFC antenna. For example, the NFC antenna can be composed of a circuit coil and a ferrite material. The NFC (Near Field Communication) technology is a near field wireless communication technology that can achieve non-contact identification and interconnection between different devices. For example, the mobile device and the antenna module 1 can perform near field wireless communication by means of the NFC technology.
[0044] In some embodiments, the display assembly 400 includes a display screen.
[0045] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 1 to 3 The shell 10 includes a light-transmitting piece 100 and a base 200, wherein the light-transmitting piece 100 is connected to the base 200, the display side 401 of the display assembly 400 faces the light-transmitting piece 100, and the display side 401 of the display assembly 400 is externally visible through the light-transmitting piece 100 when the display assembly 400 is working.
[0046] The information displayed by the display assembly 400 can be transmitted to the outside through the light-transmitting piece 100, and the outside can see the information displayed by the display assembly 400. The light-transmitting piece 100 can protect the display assembly 400, reduce the risk of damage to the display assembly 400 due to external mechanical impact, and reduce the risk of dust and water droplets entering the interior of the display assembly 400.
[0047] In some embodiments, the light-transmitting element 100 is made of a transparent material. In other embodiments, the light-transmitting element 100 may be set to a semi-transparent state. For example, the light-transmitting element 100 is made of a semi-transparent black or dark brown material.
[0048] In some embodiments, the material of the light-transmitting element 100 is glass or polymer.
[0049] The base 200 can serve as the substrate for the antenna module 1, supporting the light-transmitting element 100, the antenna assembly 300, and the display assembly 400, which facilitates the use of the antenna module 1 in different application scenarios. In some embodiments, the base 200 can be placed on a workbench in the application scenario, thereby enabling the antenna module 1 to be used in that application scenario. In other embodiments, the base 200 can be fixedly mounted on an electronic device, making the antenna module 1 the antenna module of that electronic device.
[0050] Furthermore, the main surface of the antenna module 1 is located on the light-transmitting element 100. When the base 200 is placed on the workbench or fixedly installed on other equipment, the light-transmitting element 100 is exposed to the outside world. When the mobile device and the antenna module 1 need to communicate at close range, the user can hold the mobile device close to the light-transmitting element 100, so that the mobile device and the antenna module 1 can transmit information through the light-transmitting element 100.
[0051] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the display component 400 includes a light-emitting element 410 and a projection element 420. The projection element 420 includes a light-transmitting pattern 421, which is disposed between the light-emitting element 410 and the light-transmitting element 100. When the light-emitting element 410 is working, the light emitted by it shines to the outside through the light-transmitting pattern 421 and the light-transmitting element 100.
[0052] Specifically, the light-transmitting pattern 421 has a different light transmittance than other parts of the projection element 420, or the light-transmitting pattern 421 has a different color than other parts of the projection element 420. Therefore, when the light-emitting element 410 is working, the light illuminating the light-transmitting element 100 will make the light-transmitting pattern 421 stand out from other parts of the light-transmitting element 100, making the light-transmitting pattern 421 more conspicuous. Furthermore, the light transmittance of the light-transmitting pattern 421 is higher than the light transmittance of other parts of the projection element 420.
[0053] The light-transmitting pattern 421 may be located on the display side 401 of the display component 400, and the shape of the light-transmitting pattern 421 may be configured to represent information. For example, the shape of the light-transmitting pattern 421 may be configured to represent the operating status of the antenna module 1, identify the function of the antenna module 1, and / or represent the company associated with the antenna module 1. Of course, the light-transmitting pattern 421 may also serve as a decorative pattern to decorate the appearance of the antenna module 1.
[0054] In other embodiments, a light-transmitting pattern 421 may be formed on the projector 420 through a cutout.
[0055] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the antenna assembly 300 is disposed between the light-emitting element 410 and the projection element 420.
[0056] This configuration serves two purposes: firstly, it ensures that the antenna assembly 300 does not obstruct the light-transmitting pattern 421 when the projector 420 is displayed externally, thus facilitating the full display of the light-transmitting pattern 421; secondly, when the base 200 is connected to an external device through its bottom surface, the antenna assembly 300 is positioned outside the external device and away from its circuitry, which reduces electromagnetic interference from the external device to the antenna assembly 300, thereby reducing noise and improving the accuracy of information transmission between the antenna assembly 300 and the outside world.
[0057] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the light-emitting element 410 includes a first light-emitting part 411 and a second light-emitting part 412, with the second light-emitting part 412 surrounding the first light-emitting part 411.
[0058] By providing a first light-emitting part 411 and a second light-emitting part 412, the antenna module 1 can present a more complex display effect. In some embodiments, the light-transmitting pattern 421 is located in the central area of the projector 420, and the first light-emitting part 411 can be arranged opposite to the light-transmitting pattern 421, so that the light-transmitting pattern 421 receives sufficient illumination, which is beneficial to the bright display of the light-transmitting pattern 421. When the second light-emitting part 412 emits light, it can create a larger light-emitting area, making the antenna module 1 more conspicuous as a whole.
[0059] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the light-transmitting element 100 is disc-shaped or domed. The second light-emitting part 412 is annular, and the emitted light forms a halo effect after passing through the light-transmitting element 100.
[0060] In this way, the shape of the second light-emitting part 412 can match the shape of the light-transmitting element 100, so that the light-emitting effect of the second light-emitting part 412 can match the shape of the light-transmitting element 100. Furthermore, the second light-emitting part 412 can be positioned close to the annular edge of the light-transmitting element 100, thereby creating a halo effect on the annular edge of the light-transmitting element 100, giving the light-emitting module a striking visual effect. For example, the halo effect can create a sense of boundary, which can be used to guide the user to bring the smartphone closer to the area within the halo of the antenna module 1, making the signal transmission between the smartphone and the antenna module 1 more reliable and efficient.
[0061] In some embodiments, the light-transmitting piece 100 is convex outward in a circular arc shape, which can make the antenna module 1 more visually noticeable, and the outer surface of the light-transmitting piece 100 is uniformly and smoothly shaped without sharp corners, which facilitates the user to hold the mobile device and approach the antenna assembly 300 from different directions and in different postures.
[0062] In some embodiments, the antenna assembly 300 is annular and is arranged corresponding to the second light-emitting part 412, and the antenna assembly 300 can be assembled between the second light-emitting part 412 and the light-transmitting pattern 421 by being abutted by the second light-emitting part 412.
[0063] In some embodiments, the projection piece 420 is formed with a mounting groove, and the light-emitting piece 410 and the antenna assembly 300 can be mounted in the mounting groove, and the light-transmitting pattern 421 can be located at the bottom wall of the mounting groove. In this way, the projection piece 420 can fully shield the light-emitting piece 410 and the antenna assembly 300, which can make the light emitted by the display assembly 400 more soft, and the projection piece 420, the light-emitting piece 410 and the antenna assembly 300 can be assembled as a whole to facilitate assembly.
[0064] In some embodiments, the antenna assembly 300 is arranged between the display assembly 400 and the light-transmitting piece 100.
[0065] In this way, the antenna assembly 300 can be closer to the light-transmitting piece 100, which facilitates the antenna assembly 300 to communicate with the outside at a close distance, and the antenna assembly 300 can be farther away from the base 200, which reduces the electromagnetic interference of the antenna assembly 300 by the external device when the base 200 is connected to the external device, and is conducive to reducing noise and improving the accuracy of information transmission between the antenna assembly 300 and the outside.
[0066] In some embodiments, the antenna assembly 300 is arranged between the display assembly 400 and the base 200.
[0067] In this way, the installation requirements of the antenna assembly 300 can reduce the influence on the structure of the display assembly 400, the display assembly 400 can be assembled as a module, which is conducive to simplifying the assembly process and improving the shielding of the display assembly 400 to the antenna assembly 300 and the display effect.
[0068] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 The base 200 includes a fixed part 201, and the fixed part 201 is provided with a connecting structure configured to be connected to an external device.
[0069] By arranging the connecting structure, the base 200 can be connected to the external device, which is conducive to the stable connection between the antenna module 1 and the external device to work together.
[0070] In some embodiments, the antenna module 1 can be configured to be wall-mounted, and the connecting structure is configured to be connected to a wall surface. Or the external device is placed on a workbench, and the connecting structure is configured to be connected to the workbench.
[0071] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2, the base 200 is fixedly connected to the light-transmitting member 100. The antenna assembly 300 and the display assembly 400 are fixed to the fixing portion 201. Figures 1 to 3
[0072] By providing the fixing portion 201, the antenna assembly 300 and the display assembly 400 can be connected to the base 200. In the assembly process, the antenna assembly 300 and the display assembly 400 can be fixed to the fixing portion 201 first, and then the base 200 is fixedly connected to the light-transmitting member 100.
[0073] Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the base 200 includes a bottom portion 210 and a peripheral portion 220, and the peripheral portion 220 of the base 200 is fixedly connected to the light-transmitting member 100. Specifically, the peripheral portion 220 of the base 200 is provided with an annular connecting groove 221 facing the light-transmitting member 100, the connecting groove 221 can be filled with glue, and the annular edge of the light-transmitting member 100 can be inserted into the connecting groove 221 and fixedly connected to the peripheral portion 220 of the base 200 through the glue, so that the bottom portion 210 and the peripheral portion 220 of the base 200 can surround the accommodating space 101 with the light-transmitting member 100. Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments, the fixing portion 201 includes at least one of the bottom portion 210 or the peripheral portion 220 of the base 200.
[0074] Specifically, in some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2, the fixing portion 201 includes the bottom portion 210 of the base 200 but not the peripheral portion 220, the antenna assembly 300 and the display assembly 400 are fixed to the bottom portion 210 of the base 200, and the bottom portion 210 of the base 200 is provided with a connecting structure and connected to the external device through the connecting structure. For example, the antenna assembly 300 and the display assembly 400 are fixed to the side of the bottom portion 210 of the base 200 facing the light-transmitting member 100, and the side of the bottom portion 210 of the base 200 away from the light-transmitting member 100 is provided with a connecting structure and connected to the external device through the connecting structure.
[0075] Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments, the fixing portion 201 includes the peripheral portion 220 of the base 200 but not the bottom portion 210, the antenna assembly 300 and the display assembly 400 are fixed to the peripheral portion 220 of the base 200, and the peripheral portion 220 of the base 200 is provided with a connecting structure and connected to the external device through the connecting structure.
[0076] In some embodiments, the fixing portion 201 includes the peripheral portion 220 of the base 200 but not the bottom portion 210, the antenna assembly 300 and the display assembly 400 are fixed to the peripheral portion 220 of the base 200, and the peripheral portion 220 of the base 200 is provided with a connecting structure and connected to the external device through the connecting structure.
[0077] In some embodiments, the fixed part 201 comprises a bottom 210 and a peripheral side 220 of the base 200. The antenna assembly 300 and the display assembly 400 are fixed to the bottom 210 of the base 200, and the peripheral side 220 of the base 200 is provided with a connecting structure and connected to an external device through the connecting structure. Alternatively, the antenna assembly 300 and the display assembly 400 are fixed to the peripheral side 220 of the base 200, and the bottom 210 of the base 200 is provided with a connecting structure and connected to an external device through the connecting structure.
[0078] In some embodiments, the connecting structure comprises at least one of a threaded connecting structure, a hook structure, a suction cup structure, or a magnetic attraction structure.
[0079] In this way, detachable connection of the antenna module 1 and an external device can be achieved.
[0080] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2, the threaded connecting structure comprises at least one internally threaded column 202 or at least one internally threaded hole provided on the bottom surface of the fixed part 201. Figure 3
[0081] For example, four internally threaded columns 202 are provided on the bottom surface of the fixed part 201, and the four internally threaded columns 202 are spaced apart along the circumference of the base 200, so that the force between the antenna module 1 and the external device is evenly distributed.
[0082] The internally threaded column 202 is a columnar structure provided with an internal thread. By providing the internally threaded column 202 or the internally threaded hole, the antenna module 1 can be installed on the external device by a threaded connecting piece such as a screw.
