[0023] An embodiment of the present invention provides an antenna structure for a full metal back cover, referring to Figures 1 to 3 The antenna structure is installed between the screen 1 and the metal back cover 2, and the antenna structure includes an antenna mainboard 3, and the antenna mainboard 3 is arranged in a rectangular plate structure, including a symmetrical first long side 31 and a second long side 32, and a symmetrical first short side 33 and a second short side 34; a resonant cavity is formed between the antenna mainboard 3 and the metal back cover 2, and a non-conductive bracket 4 for supporting the antenna mainboard 3 is installed in the resonant cavity; the first long side 31 is provided with an L-shaped bending portion 35, and the L-shaped bending portion 35 is connected to the metal back cover 2; the surface of the antenna mainboard 3 is provided with a avoidance groove 36 for welding wires on the side close to the first long side 31; the surface of the antenna mainboard 3 is symmetrically provided with a plurality of grounding foams 5 connected to the screen 1.

[0024] The present embodiment eliminates the traditional structure of disconnecting or opening a window on the metal back cover 2, and improves the structure of the antenna itself. A cavity is formed between the antenna mainboard 3 and the metal back cover 2 to generate a frequency response. The antenna mainboard 3 serves as the main radiation unit of the antenna. By setting it as a rectangular plate structure and adjusting the parameters of its long and short sides, the resonant frequency of the antenna can be adjusted. In combination with the grounding foam 5, the adjustment of the antenna frequency band is completed, so that the antenna has good performance without changing the structure of the metal back cover 2, and the assembly is simple.

[0025] Specifically, in this embodiment, the antenna structure adopts an upper and lower two-part structure, the antenna mainboard 3 is the upper part, and the L-shaped bending part 35 is the lower part. The upper and lower parts are an integrated structure, which can be realized by using the existing FPC antenna or LDS antenna process. During installation, the antenna mainboard 3 is installed on the metal back cover 2. The antenna mainboard 3 is the main radiation unit of the antenna. A cavity is formed between the antenna mainboard 3 and the metal back cover 2. The cavity can generate a resonant frequency to achieve antenna performance. The L-shaped bending part 35 of the lower part is connected to the metal back cover 2 to achieve grounding. Specifically, the antenna mainboard 3 serves as the main radiation unit of the antenna, and its shape and size will affect the resonant frequency of the antenna. Therefore, in this embodiment, the antenna mainboard 3 is designed as a rectangular plate structure. The antenna of this embodiment serves as a WIFI antenna. The longer the long side and the short side of the antenna mainboard 3 are, the lower the resonant frequency of the antenna will be, and the shorter the long side and the short side of the antenna mainboard 3 are, the higher the resonant frequency of the antenna will be. The change of WIFI2.4G in the short side direction is greater than that of WIFI5G, and the change of WIFI5G in the long side direction is greater than that of WIFI2.4G. The appropriate long and short side sizes can be selected according to the needs of the mobile terminal. In this embodiment, the length of the first long side 31 or the second long side 32 is set to 49.15mm~54.15mm, and the length of the first short side 33 or the second short side 34 is set to 21.3mm~26.3mm.

[0026] Furthermore, the grounding foam 5 is the grounding area of ​​the antenna and the screen 1. The position of the grounding foam 5 can be selected according to the requirements of the mobile terminal. The grounding foam 5 moves close to the short side, and the resonance frequency of WIFI2.4 / 5 is biased toward high frequency, and vice versa. In this embodiment, the grounding foam 5 is set to two, and the two grounding foams 5 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the avoidance groove 36 along the length direction of the first long side 31. The distance between any of the grounding foams 5 and the first long side 31 is set to 4.32mm~9.32mm, and the distance between any of the grounding foams 5 and the first short side 33 or the second short side 34 closest to it is set to 7.17mm~12.17mm.

[0027] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the non-conductive bracket 4 can effectively support the antenna mainboard 3 to ensure the stability of its installation. In this embodiment, the non-conductive bracket 4 is configured as a PC integrated structure.

[0028] Furthermore, the non-conductive bracket 4 is configured as a rectangular structure, and a avoidance step 41 corresponding to the avoidance groove 36 is provided on the non-conductive bracket 4. In this embodiment, the surface of the non-conductive bracket 4 is completely in contact with the bottom of the antenna mainboard 3, so that the antenna mainboard 3 is evenly stressed and the support for the antenna mainboard 3 is more stable.

[0029] Furthermore, the antenna mainboard 3 needs to be connected to the external structure by welding wires. Since the distance between the antenna mainboard 3 and the screen 1 is limited, the connecting wires can easily scratch the screen 1. Therefore, in this embodiment, a avoidance groove 36 is provided on the surface of the antenna body for the connecting wires to be installed by welding. The avoidance groove 36 is configured as a concave rectangular groove structure, and the concave height of the avoidance groove 36 is configured to be 0.5mm to 1mm.

[0030] Another embodiment of the utility model further provides a mobile terminal, including the antenna structure for a full metal back cover described in any of the above embodiments. Since the mobile terminal provided in this embodiment includes all the schemes of all the above embodiments of the antenna structure, it has at least the same technical effects as the antenna structure, which will not be elaborated here one by one.

[0031] The above description is only an optional embodiment of the utility model, and does not limit the patent scope of the utility model. All equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the utility model specification and drawings under the utility model concept, or directly / indirectly used in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the utility model.
