[0002] Antenna development is progressing in various fields. In order to function as an antenna in an electronic device, in the case of a high-frequency antenna, wiring is required between the antenna and the RF circuit mounted on the main board of the electronic device, and this wiring typically uses a micro coaxial cable.

[0003] Soldering is the most commonly used method for connecting an antenna and a micro coaxial cable. The antenna has a ground pad (GND pad) and a feed pad. The micro coaxial cable connected to the RF circuit is fixed to the GND pad and the feed pad by soldering. In this way, the antenna is electrically connected to the RF circuit through the micro coaxial cable. However, the soldering process can damage the base material of the antenna due to high temperature and also reduce productivity.

[0045] Next, with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described. The described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present disclosure, not all embodiments. Any other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without creative efforts fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

[0046] As described in the background art, conventionally, soldering is used for the wiring between the antenna and the cable. However, this soldering method can damage the substrate of the antenna pattern and reduce productivity due to high temperature.

[0047] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, a connector for connecting an antenna and a cable is provided. The connector includes a first clamping member for clamping the antenna and a second clamping member for clamping the cable. When the antenna and the cable are respectively clamped by the first clamping member and the second clamping member, the antenna and the cable are electrically connected to each other. In this way, the antenna and the cable can be electrically connected to each other through the connector, which makes the connection simple, does not damage the substrate of the antenna, and has low cost.

[0048] First, the structures of the antenna and the cable will be described.

[0049] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of an antenna according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. The antenna includes a GND pad and a feed pad. The GND pad is grounded, and the feed pad is connected to the RF circuit. In the scenario of applying the antenna to AR glasses, the antenna can be formed of a transparent material.

[0050] It should be noted that the antenna can be formed into other patterns, which are not limited herein.

[0051] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of an antenna formed on a substrate according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. In the embodiment, the antenna pattern is directly formed on the substrate.

[0052] For example, in the scenario of applying the antenna pattern to AR glasses, the antenna pattern can be formed on a transparent plastic (such as polycarbonate (PC) or polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA)) with a thickness of about 1 mm.

[0053] Figure 3A schematic structural diagram of an antenna pattern formed on a film and a substrate according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. In the embodiment, an antenna pattern is formed on the film, and then the film is pasted on the substrate.

[0054] For example, also in the scenario of applying the antenna pattern to AR glasses, the antenna pattern is formed on a transparent film (such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polycarbonate (PC), and polyimide (PI)) with a thickness of about 0.1 mm, and then the transparent film is pasted on a substrate such as transparent plastic.

[0055] Figure 4 A schematic structural diagram of a micro coaxial cable according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. The micro coaxial cable includes a central conductor for conducting electricity, a dielectric layer for isolation, an outer conductor for shielding, and a jacket for protecting from the inside out.

[0056] It should be noted that the micro coaxial cable is shown as an example above. The present disclosure can also be applied to other cables or wires with conductive functions.

[0057] The connector for connecting the antenna and the cable is described below.

[0058] Figure 5 A schematic structural diagram of a connector according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. As Figure 5 shown, the connector includes a first clamping member 1, a second clamping member 2, a strut 3, and a force application portion 4. The first clamping member 1 is arranged at one end of the connector and is configured to clamp the antenna. The second clamping member 2 is arranged beside the first clamping member 1 and is configured to clamp the cable. The force application portion 4 is located at the other end of the connector. The strut 3 is located between the clamping members and the force application portion. The connector is deformable. When a force is applied to the force application portion 4, the deformation of the force application portion 4 changes the clamping forces of the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 through the strut 3 serving as a pivot.

[0059] In one embodiment, the connector is integrally formed and made of a metal having elastic deformation characteristics and conductive characteristics.

[0060] In one embodiment, the connector is integrally formed and made of a plastic having elastic deformation characteristics. Since the plastic does not have a conductive function, a wire can be added between the first clamping member and the second clamping member to electrically connect the antenna and the cable. The wire can be arranged inside the connector or can be pasted on the connector.

[0061] In one embodiment, the connector is made of a plastic having elastic deformation characteristics and a metal having elastic deformation characteristics and conductive characteristics. The metal can be formed between the first clamping member and the second clamping member to electrically connect the antenna and the cable, and the plastic can be formed into a frame.

[0062] In one embodiment, the first clamping member is formed by two protrusions, and the antenna is clamped by the two protrusions.

[0063] In one embodiment, the second clamping member is formed by two platforms, and the cable is clamped by the two platforms.

[0064] In one embodiment, the force application portion 4 is deformed by a force application device. The force application portion 4 has an open space for accommodating the force application device, and the force application device is configured to apply a force to the force application portion to deform the force application portion, thereby changing the clamping forces of the first clamping member and the second clamping member.

[0065] Figure 6 There is shown a schematic view of applying a force application device to the force application portion of a connector in an embodiment according to the present disclosure. The force application device 5 is an extensible support member that can be controlled to stretch or contract. For example, the extensible support member is a telescopic sleeve. When the extensible support member 5 is stretched, an upward force is applied to point A of the force application portion 4, and this force is transmitted to the first clamping member and the second clamping member at points B and C via the support pillar 3, and points B and C are subjected to a downward force, as Figure 5 indicated by the thick arrows. In this way, the clamping members 1 and 2 clamp the antenna and the cable. Figure 6 In this way, the clamping members 1 and 2 clamp the antenna and the cable.

[0066] Therefore, in the embodiment, by stretching the extensible support member 5, the clamping members 1 and 2 can clamp the antenna and the cable, and thus the antenna and the cable can be electrically connected to each other.

[0067] Correspondingly, the method of connecting the antenna and the cable through the extensible support member 5 may include: inserting the antenna into the first clamping member 1; inserting the cable into the second clamping member 2; stretching the extensible support member 5 to connect the antenna and the cable. In this way, the antenna and the cable can be electrically connected to each other through the connector, which makes the connection simple, does not damage the base material of the antenna, and has a low cost.

[0068] Figure 7 There is shown a schematic view of applying a force application device to the force application portion of a connector in an embodiment according to the present disclosure. The force application device 5 is a spring. When the connector is used to connect the antenna and the cable, the spring is first pressed. For example, people can press the force application portion 4 on the upper side of the force application portion 4 with their fingers to press the spring. In this case, point A is subjected to a downward force. The force is transmitted to the first clamping member and the second clamping member at points B and C via the support pillar 3, so points B and C are subjected to an upward force, as Figure 5 indicated by the thick black arrows in. In this way, the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 are opened to insert the antenna and the cable. Figure 7 In this way, the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 are opened to insert the antenna and the cable.

[0069] After inserting the antenna and the cable into the first clamping member and the second clamping member, the spring can be released. In this case, an upward force is applied to point A of the force-applying portion 4, and the force is transmitted to the first clamping member and the second clamping member at points B and C via the support pillar 3. Therefore, downward forces are applied to points B and C, as Figure 7 indicated by the thick white arrows in

[0070] Thus, in the embodiment, by loosening the spring 5, the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 can clamp the antenna and the cable, so that the antenna and the cable can be electrically connected to each other.

[0071] Accordingly, the method of connecting the antenna and the cable through the extensible support member 5 may include: pressing the spring; inserting the antenna into the first clamping member 1; inserting the cable into the second clamping member 2; loosening the spring 5 to connect the antenna and the cable. In this way, the antenna and the cable can be electrically connected to each other through the connector, which makes the connection simple, does not damage the base material of the antenna and has a low cost.

[0072] Figure 8 Fig. shows a schematic diagram of applying a force-applying device to the force-applying portion of the connector according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The force-applying device 5 is a flipping member that can be controlled to flip. When the flipping member flips, an upward force is applied to point A of the force-applying portion 4, and the force is transmitted to the first clamping member and the second clamping member at points B and C via the support pillar 3. Therefore, downward forces are applied to points B and C, as Figure 5 indicated by the thick arrows in Figure 8 In this way, the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 clamp the antenna and the cable.

[0073] Figure 9 Fig. shows a schematic diagram of the flipping member according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As Figure 9 shown, the flipping member includes a shaft 51 and at least one cam 52. The shaft 51 is arranged along one side of the flipping member, and at least one cam 52 rotates as the shaft 51 rotates. After the flipping member is inserted into the force-applying portion 4 and the flipping member is tilted upward, the cam 52 of the flipping member lifts the force-applying portion 4 upward at point A, and points B and C of the connector descend due to the force from point A. In this way, the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 clamp the antenna and the cable.

[0074] Thus, in the embodiment, by flipping the flipping member 5, the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 can clamp the antenna and the cable, so that the antenna and the cable can be electrically connected to each other.

[0075] Accordingly, the method of connecting an antenna and a cable through the flipping member 5 may include: inserting the antenna into the first clamping member 1; inserting the cable into the second clamping member 2; flipping the flipping member 5 to connect the antenna and the cable. In this way, the antenna and the cable can be electrically connected to each other through the connector, which makes the connection simple, does not damage the base material of the antenna, and has a low cost.

[0076] In one embodiment, the edge of the force application portion 4 in contact with the force application device is inclined, as Figure 10 shown. In this way, it is easy to slide the flipping member into the open space of the force application portion 4, and the flipping member can be locked into the open space.

[0077] In one embodiment, the strut 3 is bent, and the convex portion of the bent strut 3 faces the force application portion 4, as Figure 11 shown. In this way, the strut 3 can easily transfer the force from the force application portion 4 to the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2.

[0078] In one embodiment, one or more notches are provided on the strut 3, as Figure 12 shown. In this way, the strut 3 can easily transfer the force from the force application portion 4 to the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2.

[0079] Figure 13 Illustrated is a connector for connecting an antenna and a cable according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As Figure 13 shown, the connector includes a first clamping member 1, a second clamping member 2, and an extensible support member 6. The first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 are located at both ends of the connector, and the extensible support member 6 is located between the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2. The extensible support member 6 can be controlled to stretch or contract. For example, the extensible support member can be a telescopic sleeve. When the extensible support member is stretched, as Figure 13 shown by the thick arrow in, an upward force is applied to point A, and this force is transferred to the first clamping member and the second clamping member at points B and C, so points B and C are subjected to a downward force. In this case, the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2 clamp the antenna and the cable.

[0080] Figure 14 Illustrated is a connector for connecting an antenna and a cable according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As Figure 14 shown, the connector includes a first clamping member 1, a second clamping member 2, and a wire 7. The first clamping member 1 is configured to clamp the antenna. The second clamping member 2 is configured to clamp the cable. The wire 3 is configured to electrically connect the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member 2. When the first clamping member and the second clamping member clamp the antenna and the cable, the wire 3 electrically connects the antenna and the cable.

[0081] In Figure 14In [the above], the first clamping member 1 and the second clamping member are the same. In other embodiments, the second clamping member may be different from the first clamping member. For example, the second clamping member may be formed by two platforms.

[0082] Figure 15 FIG. shows a schematic diagram of a connector connecting an antenna and a micro coaxial cable according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. In this embodiment, the connector includes a first clamping member for clamping the antenna and a second clamping member for clamping the micro coaxial cable. The first clamping member includes two first clamping chucks configured to respectively clamp the GND pad and the feed pad of the antenna. The second clamping member includes two second clamping chucks configured to respectively clamp the outer conductor and the center conductor of the cable. The first clamping chuck configured to clamp the GND pad of the antenna is electrically connected to the second clamping chuck configured to clamp the outer conductor of the cable, and the first clamping chuck configured to clamp the feed pad of the antenna is electrically connected to the second clamping chuck configured to clamp the center conductor of the cable. Therefore, after the clamping chucks clamp the GND pad and the feed pad of the antenna and the outer conductor and the center conductor of the cable, the GND pad of the antenna is electrically connected to the outer conductor of the cable, and the feed pad of the antenna is electrically connected to the center conductor of the cable.

[0083] In the above embodiment, the distance between the two platforms of the second clamping chuck configured to clamp the center conductor of the cable is less than the distance between the two platforms of the second clamping chuck configured to clamp the outer conductor of the cable. Those skilled in the art can design an appropriate distance considering the different diameters of the cables to be clamped.

[0084] In the above embodiment, when the antenna is formed on a substrate, the substrate including the antenna pattern can be inserted into the first clamping member 1 to be clamped.

[0085] It should be noted that the connector including two first clamping chucks and two second clamping chucks can be applied to any of the above structures of the connector. For example, for Figure 14 the shown connector structure, there may be two first clamping members and two second clamping members. One pair of the first clamping member and the second clamping member is used to connect the GND pad of the antenna and the outer conductor of the cable, and the other pair of the first clamping member and the second clamping member is used to connect the feed pad of the antenna and the outer conductor of the cable.

[0086] In addition, in this embodiment, for each clamping member, there are two clamping chucks. It should be noted that, according to needs, there may be any number of clamping chucks, and the present invention does not limit this.

[0087] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, an antenna assembly is further provided. In the embodiment, the antenna assembly includes an antenna, a cable, and a connector. The connector can be any of the above connectors.

[0088] According to the above solutions of the connector and the antenna assembly, the antenna and the cable can be electrically connected through the connector without welding. In this way, the antenna and the cable can be electrically connected to each other in a simple manner without damaging the substrate of the antenna and at low cost.

[0089] The above connector and antenna assembly can be applied to various fields. In the present disclosure, the field of glasses-type AR devices is taken as an example. Figure 16 A glasses-type AR device is shown. The AR glasses include lenses and a frame. A transparent antenna including a GND pad and a feed pad is formed on the lens, and the transparent antenna is connected to the RF circuit through a micro coaxial cable. Conventionally, welding is used to connect the transparent antenna and the micro coaxial cable, which may damage the substrate of the antenna due to high temperature. In this embodiment, a connector is used to connect the transparent antenna and the micro coaxial cable. The connector can be any one of the above connectors.

[0090] Figure 17 A schematic diagram of the connection between the antenna and the micro coaxial cable through the connector in the glasses-type AR device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. In the glasses-type AR device, the frame fixes the lens, and there is an open space between the lens and the frame. In the embodiment, the connector is formed in the open space between the lens and the frame to save space and not affect the appearance of the glasses-type AR device. In this way, the micro coaxial cable for connecting the antenna and the cable can be arranged along the contour of the lens, which saves space and has no impact on the transparency of the glasses.

[0091] As Figure 17 shown, the antenna pattern is formed on the lens, wherein the GND pad and the feed pad are formed near the edge of the lens fixed by the frame. The connector includes two first clamping chucks for clamping the GND pad and the feed pad and two second clamping chucks for clamping the outer conductor and the center conductor of the micro coaxial cable. In this way, the GND pad is electrically connected to the outer conductor of the cable, and the feed pad is electrically connected to the center conductor of the cable. The other end of the cable is connected to the RF circuit, which can be located on the main board arranged at the temple.

[0092] In this way, the antenna and the cable can be electrically connected to each other through the connector, which makes the connection simple, does not damage the substrate of the antenna and is at low cost. In addition, the space of the glasses-type AR device can be reasonably utilized without affecting the appearance of the glasses-type AR device.
