Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of communication technology, and in particular to a 5G communication module. Background Art

[0002] At present, with the continuous development of modern communication technology, 5G modules, as modular products that combine multiple systems such as communication chips, radio frequency circuits, and signal processing components, are widely used in smart devices and systems because they can stably achieve high-speed transmission and have good compatibility and flexibility.

[0003] Therefore, 5G communication modules are widely used in various scenarios such as the Internet of Things, autonomous driving, industrial automation, smart home, healthcare, and agriculture. This allows operators to remotely send commands to the 5G module, which then transmits data to the devices and instruments it manages. The transmitter of the 5G module then transmits the operator's signal to each device, thereby enabling rapid adjustments to each device.

[0004] Regarding the above-mentioned related technologies, when the 5G module is used in relatively humid and stuffy working environments such as seafood processing workshops and ocean-going ships, since the 5G communication module is composed of various electronic components, and since the 5G module may accumulate heat due to long-term work and usually needs to be cooled, the humid moisture in the air may enter the communication module from the heat dissipation point, causing the electronic components to become damp and short-circuit, thereby causing the entire 5G communication module to be unable to be used normally. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to enable the 5G communication module to continue to work normally when exposed to a humid and hot environment for a long time, the present application provides a 5G communication module.

[0006] This application provides a 5G communication module, which adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] A 5G communication module includes a chipset, a shell is provided on the outside of the chipset, the shell is arranged vertically, a material box for placing a desiccant is provided vertically inside the shell, a side of the material box close to the chipset is provided with a plurality of dewatering holes, a heat pipe is provided on the inside of the shell, the heat pipe extends to the outside of the shell, a cooling fan is provided on the side of the heat pipe away from the inside of the shell, a heat conducting medium is provided in the heat pipe, and a circulating pump connected to the heat pipe is provided in the shell.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the desiccant in the material box absorbs a small amount of water that penetrates into the shell through the water removal holes. When the temperature of the chipset rises too much, the circulation pump starts to make the heat-conducting medium in the heat pipe flow, and the cooling fan starts with a delay to dissipate the heat of the heat pipe extending out of the shell, and then dissipates the heat of the heat-conducting medium, effectively meeting the requirement that the 5G communication module can still work normally for a long time in a humid and hot environment.

[0009] Optionally, the shell is provided with a vertical slide groove, and the two sides of the material box are slidably connected to the slide groove. The lower end of the material box is provided with a horizontally arranged extension plate, and the lower side of the shell is provided with a groove for placing the extension plate. A sealing gasket is provided in the groove, and the shell is provided with a locking assembly for locking the material box. When the material box is located inside the shell, the lower end surface of the extension plate and the lower end surface of the shell are located in the same horizontal plane.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, since the 5G communication module is usually set higher, the material box is placed into the shell from bottom to top along the slide rail, the sealing between the shell and the material box is achieved by a sealing gasket, and the material box is fixed by a locking assembly, which effectively facilitates the operator to replace the desiccant inside the material box and facilitates the sealing of the connection between the material box and the shell.

[0011] Optionally, the chipset includes an RF antenna, the shell is provided with an antenna seat adapted to the RF antenna, a protective cover is provided at the connection between the antenna seat and the RF antenna, a water absorbing layer is provided on the inside of the protective cover, and a rubber layer is provided on the outside of the protective cover for fixing the protective cover.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, a protective cover is installed at the connection position between the antenna base and the RF antenna. The protective cover is fixed by the rubber layer and plays a certain protective role. The water-absorbing layer inside the protective cover absorbs a small amount of moisture entering from the gap between the rubber layer and the RF antenna, effectively sealing the interface exposed to the outside while facilitating the replacement of the antenna, so as to reduce damage to the RF antenna caused by an overly humid environment.

[0013] Optionally, the material box is made of transparent material, the shell is provided with a window arranged along the vertical direction of the shell, the window is aligned with one side of the material box, and the desiccant is made of color-changing silica gel.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, since the color of the color-changing silica gel will change with the degree of water absorption, when the operator performs maintenance and repair on the 5G communication module, the color change of the color-changing silica gel inside the window material box can be used to judge the airtightness of the 5G communication module and whether the desiccant needs to be replaced.

[0015] Optionally, a base is provided on a horizontal side of the shell, the base is provided with a plurality of suction cups, and a universal ball joint is provided on a side of the suction cup close to the base.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, when the shell is installed, the base is fixed to the wall or other equipment by the suction cup, and the direction of the suction cup is adjusted by rotating the universal ball joint, which effectively increases the applicable scope of the installation.

[0017] Optionally, a threaded rod is provided on one side of the universal ball joint close to the base, the base is provided with threaded holes corresponding to the threaded rods one by one, and a guide portion extending toward a side away from the base is provided at the threaded holes.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is necessary to install the device at a place with a large height difference or at a wall corner, the distance between each suction cup and the base is adjusted individually. During the adjustment process, the guide part adapts to the movement of the threaded rod, and then when the base is installed, it is convenient to adjust the installation point of the base, which effectively further expands the use environment of the 5G communication module.

[0019] Optionally, a waterproof coating is provided on the outside of the chipset.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, a waterproof coating is added to the chipset to isolate the chipset from external moisture. When the outside of the shell is damaged, the internal chipset can still have waterproof ability for a short time, effectively providing short-term waterproof isolation for the chipset after the shell is damaged.

[0021] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0022] 1. The desiccant in the material box absorbs a small amount of water that penetrates into the shell through the water removal hole. When the temperature of the chipset rises too much, the circulation pump starts to make the heat transfer medium in the heat pipe flow, and the cooling fan starts with a delay to dissipate the heat from the heat pipe extending out of the shell, and then dissipates the heat from the heat transfer medium, effectively meeting the requirement that the 5G communication module can still work normally for a long time in a humid and hot environment;

[0023] 2. Since the 5G communication module is usually set higher, the material box is placed into the shell from bottom to top along the slide rail, the sealing between the shell and the material box is achieved through the sealing gasket, and the material box is fixed through the locking assembly, which effectively facilitates the operator to replace the desiccant inside the material box and seal the connection between the material box and the shell.

[0030] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with all the accompanying drawings.

[0031] An embodiment of the present application discloses a 5G communication module.

[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 5 A 5G communication module includes a chipset 12, a housing 1 is provided outside the chipset 12, the housing 1 is vertically arranged, a material box 3 for placing a desiccant is provided in the vertical direction inside the housing 1, a side of the material box 3 close to the chipset 12 has a plurality of dewatering holes 33, a heat pipe 5 is provided inside the housing 1, the heat pipe 5 extends to the outside of the housing 1, a cooling fan 4 is provided on the side of the heat pipe 5 away from the inside of the housing 1, a heat conducting medium is provided in the heat pipe 5, and a circulating pump 8 connected to the heat pipe 5 is provided in the housing 1. The desiccant in the material box 3 absorbs a small amount of water that penetrates into the inside of the housing 1 through the dewatering holes 33, when the temperature of the chipset 12 rises too much, the circulating pump 8 is started to make the heat conducting medium in the heat conducting pipe 5 flow, the cooling fan 4 is delayed to start to dissipate the heat from the heat conducting pipe 5 extending out of the housing 1, and then dissipate the heat from the heat conducting medium, effectively realizing the requirement that the 5G communication module can still work normally for a long time in a humid and hot environment.

[0033] As the desiccant inside the shell 1 is used for a long time, it is necessary to replace the desiccant inside the shell 1. In order to facilitate the operator to replace and adjust the desiccant as much as possible. The shell 1 is provided with a vertical slide, and the two sides of the material box 3 are slidably connected to the slide. The lower end of the material box 3 is provided with a horizontally arranged extension plate 34, and the lower side of the shell 1 is provided with a groove for placing the extension plate 34. A sealing gasket 32 ​​is provided in the groove. The shell 1 is provided with a locking assembly 31 for locking the material box 3. When the material box 3 is located inside the shell 1, the lower end surface of the extension plate 34 is located at the same horizontal plane as the lower end surface of the shell 1. Since the 5G communication module is usually set higher, the material box 3 is placed into the shell 1 from bottom to top along the slide rail, and the sealing between the shell 1 and the material box 3 is achieved by the sealing gasket 32. The material box 3 is fixed by the locking assembly 31, which effectively facilitates the operator to replace the desiccant inside the material box 3 and seals the connection between the material box 3 and the shell 1.

[0034] In order to optimize the signal of the 5G communication module as much as possible, it is usually chosen to place the RF antenna 6 externally to reduce signal interference as much as possible. The chipset 12 includes an RF antenna 6, and the housing 1 is provided with an antenna seat 61 adapted to the RF antenna 6. A protective cover 7 is provided at the connection between the antenna seat 61 and the RF antenna 6. A water-absorbing layer 72 is provided on the inner side of the protective cover 7, and a rubber layer 71 for fixing the protective cover 7 is provided on the outer side of the protective cover 7. The protective cover 7 is installed at the connection position between the antenna seat 61 and the RF antenna 6, and the protective cover 7 is fixed by the rubber layer 71 while playing a certain protective role. The water-absorbing layer 72 inside the protective cover 7 absorbs a small amount of moisture entering from the gap between the rubber layer 71 and the RF antenna 6, effectively facilitating the replacement of the antenna while sealing the interface exposed to the outside to reduce damage to the RF antenna 6 due to an overly humid environment.

[0035] The material box 3 is made of transparent material, and the housing 1 is provided with a window 11 arranged in the vertical direction of the housing 1, and the window 11 is aligned with one side of the material box 3. The desiccant is color-changing silica gel. Since the color of the color-changing silica gel changes with the degree of water absorption, when the operator performs maintenance and repair on the 5G communication module, the sealing degree of the 5G communication module and whether the desiccant needs to be replaced can be judged by the color change of the color-changing silica gel inside the material box 3 in the window 11.

[0036] In order to facilitate the installation and placement of the 5G communication module. A base is provided on the horizontal side of the shell 1, and a plurality of suction cups 22 are provided on the base, and a universal ball joint 23 is provided on the side of the suction cup 22 close to the base. When the shell 1 is installed, the base is fixed to the wall or other equipment by the suction cup 22, and the direction of the suction cup 22 is adjusted by rotating the universal ball joint 23, which effectively increases the applicable scope of the installation. In order to further facilitate the installation of the 5G communication module. A threaded rod 21 is provided on the side of the universal ball joint 23 close to the base, and the base is provided with a threaded hole corresponding to the threaded rod 21 one by one, and a guide portion extending away from the base is provided at the threaded hole. When it is necessary to install the device at a place with a large height difference or a corner of the wall, the distance between each suction cup 22 and the base is adjusted separately. During the adjustment process, the guide portion adapts to the movement of the threaded rod 21, and then when the base is installed, it is convenient to adjust the installation point of the base, which effectively further expands the use environment of the 5G communication module.

[0037] A waterproof coating is added on the chipset 12 to isolate the chipset 12 from external moisture. When the outer shell 1 is damaged, the chipset 12 inside can still have waterproof ability for a short time, effectively isolating the chipset 12 from the damaged shell 1 for a short time.

[0038] The implementation principle of a 5G communication module in an embodiment of the present application is: dehumidification of the interior of the shell 1 is carried out through a material box 3 that can be disassembled and filled with desiccant, and heat dissipation of the chipset 12 is completed through a cooling fan 4, a heat pipe 5, a heat conducting medium and a circulating pump 8.

[0039] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
