One end of the slider 1611 limits the inductor 120, and can slide up and down synchronously along the coil of the inductor 120 when the inductor 120 rotates. One end of the clip 1612 is detachably connected to the other end of the slider 1611, and the torque adjustment device 1614 is detachably connected to the clip 1612 after passing through the short-circuit tube 1613. The clip 1612 can rotate on the slider 1611 to adjust the fixed angle, and the position of the short-circuit tube 1613 is adjusted in linkage, so that the two ends of the short-circuit tube 1613 are in contact with the inductor 120 and the bent rod 150 to short-circuit part of the coil of the inductor 120. The torque adjustment device 1614 can adjust the torque in two different ways so that the torque acts on the short pipe 1613 to ensure the reliability of the contact between the short pipe 1613 and the inductor 120 and the bent rod 150 .

[0064] One end of the slider 1611 is provided with a through hole 16111, and a wiring hole 16112 is arranged on one side of the through hole 16111. Along the upper surface and the lower surface of the through hole 16111, a limiting lug 16113 is formed by extending in the same direction, and the coil of the inductor 120 is located within a pair of limiting lugs 16113.

[0065] One end of the clip 1612 is detachably connected to the other end of the slider 1611 and the torque adjusting device 1614. The inductor 120 and the curved rod 150 are respectively in contact with different ends and different sides of the short connecting pipe 1613, and the contact end of the short connecting pipe 1613 with the inductor 120 is arranged in a hemispherical shape, and the contact end of the short connecting pipe 1613 with the curved rod 150 is cylindrical.

[0066] The slider 1611 is further provided with a convex portion 16115, and the convex portion 16115 is located at the turning point of the limiting lug 16113 and is close to the semi-spherical end of the short connecting pipe 1613. The protruding direction is the same as the extending direction of the limiting lug 16113, and is used to limit the rotation angle of the short connecting pipe 1613 and at the same time make the semi-spherical end of the short connecting pipe 1613 contact with the inductor 120.

[0067] The torque adjusting device 1614 includes a rotating shaft 16141, a torsion spring 16142 and an angle limiting block 16143; the rotating shaft 16141 sequentially passes through one side housing of the short connecting pipe 1613 and is located within the short connecting pipe 1613, then passes through the angle limiting block 16143 and the torsion spring 16142, and passes through the other side housing of the short connecting pipe 1613 and is detachably connected to the clip 1612.

[0068] A plurality of torsion spring fixing holes 16144 are uniformly arranged on the angle limiting block 16143. Two ends of the torsion spring 16142 are respectively connected to the torsion spring fixing holes 16144 and the short connecting pipe 1613, and by adjusting and replacing the connection with different torsion spring fixing holes 16144 through the torsion spring 16142, the torque of the torsion spring 16142 can be adjusted.

[0069] The torques provided by the torsion spring 16142 act on both ends of the short connecting pipe 1613 respectively, and the two torque directions are opposite, so that the semi-spherical end of the short connecting pipe 1613 is closely attached to the inductor 120, and the cylindrical end of the short connecting pipe 1613 is closely attached to the curved rod 150.

[0070] When the inductor 120 rotates, the slider 1611 can slide up and down along the guide rail 162 synchronously, and the short pipe 1613 always keeps in contact with the inductor 120 and the curved rod 150 to short-circuit part of the coil of the inductor 120 and change the inductance value of the inductor 120. One end of the suspension rope 165 is fixedly connected to the slider 1611 through the wiring hole 16112, and the other end is fixedly connected to the counterweight 164 after passing through the pulley 163. At the same time, the second transmission device 170 and the third transmission device 180 rotate to adjust the overlapping area of the two metal plates in the first capacitor 130 and the second capacitor 140 to adjust the capacitance value and realize the dynamic adjustment of the matching degree between the circuit and the antenna.

[0071] Among them, in order to ensure the smooth up and down movement of the slider 1611, the slider 1611 is made of polytetrafluoroethylene material, and the guide rail 162 is made of ceramic material. When the two materials slide relative to each other, the friction coefficient is small. In order to prevent the slider 1611 from being stuck due to eccentricity during the up and down sliding, an appropriate counterweight is added to the slider 1611. The counterweight is realized through the counterweight device 164. The counterweight device 164 moves along the guide cylinder 1110 without deviation. Under the action of the counterweight device 164, the slider 1611 always receives an upward pulling force, which can keep the relative position relationship between the slider 1611 and the guide rail 162. The pulling force can be adjusted by adding or reducing counterweight blocks at the tail of the counterweight device 164. When the inductor 120 rotates, the slider 1611 moves up and down synchronously through the counterweight device 164.
