The plurality of second grooves 1132 are disposed on the second surface 1112 and are located outside the mounting groove 121, so that the grooves can be distributed at different positions of the carrier 111, more effectively resisting deformation caused by external forces and temperature changes, and improving the structural stability of the entire assembly.
[0061] In some embodiments, the plurality of first grooves 1131 are close to one end of the support frame 11, and the plurality of second grooves 1132 are close to the other end of the support frame 11, 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 support frame 111, which is conducive to enhancing the structural strength of the support frame 111. At the same time, the first grooves 1131 are recessed from the first surface 1111 to the direction close to the second surface 1112, and the second grooves 1132 are recessed from the second surface 1112 to the direction close to the first surface 1111, which can increase the surface area of the support 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 assembly.

The electronic device 4 may 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.

Or the electronic 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.
[0070] The present invention provides an electronic device 4, which is provided with the cavity antenna 1 assembly, in which two groups of cavity antennas 1 are arranged inside the installation cavity, the installation cavity has a gap 32, the two groups of cavity antennas 1 are connected by a coaxial cable 2, the shell 12 in the cavity antenna 1 has a mounting groove 121, the extension 112 of the support frame 11 in the cavity antenna 1 is connected to the carrier 111, the carrier 111 is at least partially located inside the mounting groove 121, the extension 112 is located outside the mounting groove 121, and a plurality of grooves evenly distributed are provided on the carrier 111, two conductive components are respectively arranged on both sides of the shell 12, and the two conductive components are located outside the mounting groove 121, and the conductive layer 133 in the conductive component 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 frame 11 provides support and limit for the shell 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 support frame 111 will allow the stress to be more evenly distributed on the support frame 111 to effectively resist deformation. The multiple grooves will also increase the surface area of the support frame 111, improve the heat dissipation efficiency, and reduce deformation caused by temperature changes.
