The plurality of grooves include a plurality of first grooves 1131 and a plurality of second grooves 1132, and the plurality of first grooves 1131 are provided on the first side surface 1111 and are located inside the mounting groove 121. Multiple second grooves 1132 are arranged on the second side 1112 and are located outside the mounting groove 121, so that the grooves can be distributed at different positions of the frame 111, more effectively resisting deformation caused by external forces and temperature changes, and improving the structural stability of the entire assembly.
[0062] In some embodiments, the plurality of first grooves 1131 are close to one end of the support body, and the plurality of second grooves 1132 are close to the other end of the support body, that is, the plurality of first grooves 1131 and the plurality of second grooves 1132 are respectively located at the two ends, and the first grooves 1131 and the second grooves 1132 do not overlap in the direction perpendicular to the first side plate 122, so that the stress can be more evenly distributed on the frame 111, which is conducive to enhancing the structural strength of the frame 111. At the same time, the first grooves 1131 are recessed from the first side surface 1111 to the direction close to the second side surface 1112, and the second grooves 1132 are recessed from the second side surface 1112 to the direction close to the first side surface 1111, which can increase the surface area of the frame 111, improve the heat dissipation efficiency, help reduce the deformation caused by temperature changes, and further improve the structural stability and durability of the cavity antenna 1 component.

In some embodiments, the conductive frame can be a conductive frame formed integrally on the middle frame body. It should be understood that in other embodiments, the conductive frame and the middle frame body can also be independent of each other, for example, the conductive frame and the middle frame body can be formed separately using different materials, for example, the conductive frame is formed of a conductive material, and the middle frame body is formed of a non-conductive material.
[0067] In one embodiment, in the mobile phone, there is an assembly gap between the display component 31 and the housing 3 , and the assembly gap is an inevitable gap 32 formed when the two components are assembled, and electromagnetic waves can enter the interior of the mobile phone through the gap 32 .
[0068] In one embodiment, this embodiment can also be applied to a communication device 4 such as a tablet computer, in which a display component 31 and a housing 3 are also provided, and the gap 32 can also include a structural gap between the display component 31 and the housing 3 to achieve radiation and reception of dual-band signals. The two groups of cavity antennas 1 described in this embodiment are respectively provided on both sides of the housing 3 of the tablet computer.
[0069] In a possible implementation, based on the structure of the cavity antenna 1 component described above, this implementation proposes an application of a cavity antenna 1 component in a communication device 4. Wherein, the communication device 4 can be a laptop computer, a desktop computer or an all-in-one computer. This implementation takes a laptop computer as an example. The laptop computer described in this implementation may include the cavity antenna 1 component described in any of the above implementations. For example, the gap 32 in the laptop computer is utilized, and the gap 32 includes an assembly gap between the display component 31 and the metal back shell to achieve the radiation and reception of dual-band signals. Electronic components such as circuit boards are installed in the space between the display component 31 and the metal back shell. The metal back shell is made of metal material, or a metal layer is attached to the inner side of the display component 31 and the metal back shell. The two groups of cavity antennas 1 described in this implementation are respectively arranged on both sides of the metal back shell in the laptop computer.
[0070] In a possible implementation, based on the structure of the cavity antenna 1 component described above, this implementation proposes an application of the cavity antenna 1 component in a communication device 4. The communication device 4 may be an electronic device having a circuit board. Or the communication device 4 may be an electronic device having a circuit board, and the electronic device includes a keyboard. The cavity antenna 1 component described in the above implementation may be applied to any electronic device having the circuit board.
[0071] The present invention provides a communication device 4, which is provided with the cavity antenna 1 assembly, wherein two groups of cavity antennas 1 are arranged inside the mounting cavity, the mounting cavity has a gap 32, the two groups of cavity antennas 1 are connected by a coaxial cable 2, the housing 12 in the cavity antenna 1 has a mounting groove 121, the extension 112 of the support body in the cavity antenna 1 is connected to the frame 111, the frame 111 is at least partially located inside the mounting groove 121, the extension 112 is located outside the mounting groove 121, a plurality of grooves evenly distributed are provided on the frame 111, two conductive members are respectively arranged on both sides of the housing 12, and the two conductive members are located outside the mounting groove 121, and the conductive layer 133 in the conductive member is wrapped on the foam. In this way, the two groups of cavity antennas 1 are connected by the coaxial cable 2 to form a stable signal transmission channel, the support body provides support and limit for the housing 12, and the two groups of cavity antennas 1 will resonate in the gap 32. At the same time, when subjected to external forces or temperature changes, the multiple grooves provided on the frame 111 will allow the stress to be more evenly distributed on the frame 111 to effectively resist deformation. The multiple grooves will also increase the surface area of the frame 111, improve the heat dissipation efficiency, and reduce deformation caused by temperature changes. In addition, the housing 12 is fixed and signal transmission is achieved through the conductive member, and the buffering effect of the foam can also reduce the damage to the antenna assembly caused by external impact and improve durability. Thus, the technical effect of improving communication performance and high durability is achieved.
