[0029] The IBT antenna is a type of antenna with specific characteristics and functions, capable of concentrating signals in a specific direction for transmission and reception, thereby improving the signal transmission efficiency and distance. The IBT antenna continuously monitors the signal strength, quality, and related parameters of the received and transmitted signals. Since the IBT antenna is easily affected by the external environment and shakes when installed outdoors, resulting in signal attenuation of the IBT antenna and affecting the effect of the IBT antenna, further research is needed on how to keep the IBT antenna in the maximum gain direction.

[0030] To solve the above problems, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , this solution proposes a stabilizing device 1000, including a base 1, a mounting rod 2, an antenna dish 3, and a follow-up component 4. The mounting rod 2 is movably connected to the base 1; the antenna dish 3 is installed on the mounting rod 2, and a laser 31 is provided inside the antenna dish 3, and the laser 31 can emit laser to a target; the follow-up component 4 includes a detection mechanism 41 and a driving member. The detection mechanism 41 is electrically connected to the laser 31 to detect the position of the laser on the target, and the output end of the driving member is connected to the laser 31, and the driving member can drive the laser 31 to adjust the angle relative to the antenna dish 3.

[0031] The technical solution of the present utility model sets the follow-up component 4 inside the antenna dish 3. The detection mechanism 41 detects and feeds back the position of the laser spot emitted by the laser 31, and the corresponding controller calculates the deviation between the laser spot and the center of the target of the target body, and controls the driving member to adjust the laser 31 correspondingly, so that the laser spot can always be located at the center of the target of the target body. In this way, when installing the IBT antenna, only need to set the preset installation direction. When the antenna deviates due to the external environment, the stabilizing device 1000 corrects the installation angle of the antenna, thereby ensuring that the IBT antenna can always be kept in the maximum gain direction and improving the efficiency of the antenna.

[0032] In an alternative embodiment, to achieve the detection effect of the detection mechanism 41, the detection mechanism 41 includes a laser tracker 411 and an angle sensor 412. The laser tracker 411 is used to track the position of the laser spot, and the angle sensor 412 is used to detect the angular position of the laser device 31 relative to the parabolic antenna 3. Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , in actual operation, by activating the laser device 31, the laser device 31 emits a laser beam that hits the bull's-eye position of the target body, so as to achieve precise positioning of the installation angle of the parabolic antenna 3, thereby facilitating the installation and positioning of the IBT antenna. When the installation direction of the laser device 31 changes due to external environmental reasons, resulting in a certain deviation of the laser spot from the bull's-eye or fluctuations relative to the bull's-eye, in this case, the laser tracker 411 detects and feeds back the position of the laser spot, and the angle sensor 412 detects and feeds back the angular position of the laser device 31, so as to timely detect and calculate the position of the laser spot relative to the bull's-eye, and the controller controls the driving member to drive the laser device 31 to adjust relative to the angular deviation, so that the position of the laser spot emitted by the laser device 31 always remains at the bull's-eye position, thereby ensuring that the IBT antenna can be automatically adjusted after installation, so that the installation position of the IBT antenna always remains in the maximum gain direction, ensuring the working efficiency of the IBT antenna.

[0033] Furthermore, to increase the output power of the laser, the number of the laser devices 31, the laser trackers 411, and the angle sensors 412 all includes two. The two laser devices 31 are installed at intervals on the parabolic antenna 3. One laser tracker 411 and one angle sensor 412 are used to detect one laser device 31. By arranging two laser devices 31 in the parabolic antenna 3, when it is necessary to increase the output power and brightness of the laser, by adjusting the output positions of the two laser devices 31, the laser beams emitted by the two laser devices 31 are combined together to form a high-power laser beam, increasing the power of the laser beam output by the parabolic antenna 3. At the same time, by arranging one laser tracker 411 and one angle sensor 412 for each laser device 31 to respectively detect the position of each laser device 31, it is convenient for the controller to correspondingly control and adjust the movement of the laser device 31, so that the two laser beams can always hit the bull's-eye position after being combined.

[0034] In an alternative embodiment, to achieve the control of the parabolic antenna 3, the stabilizing device 1000 further includes a control panel 5. The control panel 5 is connected to the mounting rod 2 and is located below the parabolic antenna 3. The control panel 5 is electrically connected to the laser device 31 and the follow-up assembly 4. Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The control panel 5 can be fixed on the mounting rod 2 through the mounting frame. In this embodiment, the mounting frame includes two arc-shaped flange structures. The two flange structures are spliced ​​to embrace the mounting rod 2, and the flange structures are screwed and fixed with nuts by bolts. This not only ensures the connection and fixation of the control panel 5, but also facilitates the adjustment of the installation height of the control panel 5 on the mounting rod 2. It is only necessary to loosen the nut and then adjust the position of the mounting frame. After adjustment, tighten the nut again to ensure stability. By arranging the control panel 5 on the mounting rod 2, the control panel 5 is electrically connected to the antenna dish 3 and the follower component 4. On the one hand, the control panel 5 can be used to display the waveform of the IBT antenna, so that the operator can understand the working status of the IBT antenna at any time. On the other hand, the control parameters can be manually input through the control panel 5 to realize the manual adjustment of each component in the antenna dish 3.

[0035] In an optional embodiment, in order to achieve mechanical adjustment of the positions of the mounting rod 2 and the antenna dish 3, the stabilizing device 1000 further includes an adjustment component 6, which is mounted on the base 1, and the output end of the adjustment component 6 is connected to the mounting rod 2 to adjust the relative position of the mounting rod 2. In actual use, the IBT antenna may produce some minor deviations due to the influence of the external environment. The automatic correction adjustment can be achieved by fine-tuning the follow-up component 4. By setting the adjustment component 6, the adjustment component 6 adjusts the installation angle of the mounting rod 2 to adjust the installation angle of the antenna dish 3. On the one hand, the antenna dish 3 can be adjusted within a larger angle range, which is convenient for the installation of the antenna dish 3. On the other hand, the antenna dish 3 can be adjusted accordingly according to the use needs of the IBT antenna to adapt to the actual use of the IBT antenna and improve the adaptability of the stabilizing device 1000.

[0036] Specifically, the adjustment assembly 6 includes a first driving member 61 and a second driving member 62. The output end of the first driving member 61 is connected to the mounting rod 2 to drive the mounting rod 2 to rotate relative to the base 1. The output end of the second driving member 62 is connected to the mounting rod 2 to drive the mounting rod 2 to pitch and swing relative to the base 1. Figure 1 and Figure 2, in this solution, the first driving member 61 and the second driving member 62 are rotary motors. The first driving member 61 is installed on the base 1 in the vertical direction, and the output end of the first driving member 61 is connected to the mounting rod 2. Optionally, the first driving member 61 and the mounting rod 2 can be driven by gears or belts to transmit the torque of the first driving member 61 to the mounting rod 2, so as to realize the rotation of the mounting rod 2 along the base 1 and thus realize the adjustment of the horizontal installation angle of the antenna dish 3. In this embodiment, a belt drive is adopted between the mounting rod 2 and the first driving member 61, and can be selected according to actual needs in other embodiments. Similarly, the output end of the second driving member 62 can also be driven by a belt drive or a gear drive to drive the mounting rod 2 to swing up and down. In this embodiment, since the second driving member 62 is arranged on the base 1 in the horizontal direction, the output end of the second driving member 62 and the mounting rod 2 are driven by gears, which can improve the reliability of the transmission between the two and avoid relative sliding.

[0037] Further, to avoid movement interference when the mounting rod 2 rotates and swings, the adjusting assembly 6 further includes a swing rod 63. The swing rod 63 is installed on the base 1 in the horizontal direction. The output end of the second driving member 62 is connected to the swing rod 63, and the mounting rod 2 is connected to the swing rod 63. Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , two mounting seats are provided on the base 1 at intervals. The swing rod 63 passes through the two mounting seats respectively, and both ends of the swing rod 63 are clamped in the mounting seats, so that the swing rod 63 can rotate relative to the mounting seats. In this way, by connecting the mounting rod 2 to the swing rod 63, the second driving member 62 drives the swing rod 63 to rotate, so as to realize the swing adjustment of the mounting rod 2. The mounting rod 2 is arranged on the swing rod 63 in the vertical direction and can rotate relative to the swing rod 63. Thus, the first driving member 61 drives the mounting rod 2 to rotate relative to the swing rod 63. In this process, the rotation and swing of the mounting rod 2 are respectively realized by the rotation of the mounting rod 2 itself and the swing of the swing rod 63 driving the mounting rod 2. In this way, even if the mounting rod 2 needs to be adjusted for rotation and swing at the same time, there will be no interference, which ensures the independence of the movement of the mounting rod 2 during the horizontal adjustment and the pitching adjustment, so that the adjustment of the installation angle of the antenna dish 3 can be smoother.

[0038] In an optional embodiment, to buffer the mounting rod 2 during the pitching adjustment to ensure the stability during the adjustment process, the adjusting assembly 6 further includes a buffer mechanism 64. The buffer mechanism 64 includes a connecting plate 641 and a buffer member 642. The buffer member is arranged parallel to the base 1. The buffer member 642 is arranged between the base 1 and the connecting plate 641 in the vertical direction, and both ends of the buffer member 642 are in contact with the base 1 and the connecting plate 641 respectively. Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The buffer member 642 is arranged on one radial side of the rocker arm 63. When the second driving member 62 drives the rocker arm 63 to rotate, the connecting plate 641 is deflected at an angle relative to the base 1, so that the connecting plate 641 squeezes the buffer member 642, so that the mounting rod 2 can be relatively smooth when it pitches and swings. In addition, the buffer member 642 can also provide buffering when the stabilizing device 1000 as a whole shakes or wobbles, thereby preventing the stabilizing device 1000 from generating a large rigid impact.

[0039] Furthermore, the buffer 642 includes two, and the two buffers 642 are respectively located on opposite sides of the mounting rod 2 in the radial direction. By arranging the buffers 642 on both the left and right sides of the swing rod 63, when the buffer 642 on one side is squeezed by the connecting plate 641, the buffer 642 on the other side is stretched to generate a pulling force on the connecting plate 641, so that when the swing rod 63 rotates, the buffers 642 on both sides generate forces in opposite directions on the connecting plate 641, further improving the stability of the connecting plate 641 during pitching and swinging, and making the mounting rod 2 more gentle during pitching and swinging. In this embodiment, the buffer 642 is a spring, and in other embodiments, the buffer 642 can also be rubber or silicone, which can be selected according to actual needs.

[0040] In an optional embodiment, in order to further ensure the stability of the mounting rod 2 during pitch adjustment, the stabilizing device 1000 further includes a guide member 7, the connecting plate 641 is formed with a through hole, the guide member 7 is clamped in the through hole, the mounting rod 2 is penetrated by the guide member 7, and the guide member 7 can slide along the extension direction of the through hole when the mounting rod 2 is pitched and swung. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The guide member 7 is sleeved on the mounting rod 2 and clamped in the through hole of the connecting plate 641. The guide member 7 can slide along the extending direction of the through hole. When the second driving member 62 drives the swing rod 63 to rotate, the mounting rod 2 will pitch and move accordingly, thereby driving the guide member 7 to squeeze the connecting plate 641, causing it to pitch and swing, thereby squeezing the buffer member 642 on one side, and the buffer member 642 also applies a reaction force to the connecting plate 641, so that the pitch and swing of the mounting rod 2 remain relatively gentle. Thereby, the stabilizing effect of the stabilizing device 1000 is improved.

[0041] The working principle of the stabilizing device 1000 in this solution is described in detail below:

[0042] The stabilization device 1000 in this solution has two control modes: manual adjustment and automatic adjustment. When the stabilization device 1000 is in the manual adjustment state, the movement of the driving member, the first driving member 61 and the second driving member 62 is manually controlled through the control screen 5 to adjust the vertical or horizontal position of the laser spot emitted by the laser 31. When the stabilization device 1000 is in the automatic adjustment state, the stabilization device 1000 enters the IBT control mode. The controller analyzes and calculates the detection results of the detection mechanism 41, and correspondingly controls the driving member, the first driving member 61 and the second driving member 62 to move left and right or up and down relative to the bull's-eye. The laser 31 and the position of the laser spot are detected and adjusted at any time through the follow-up component 4. In this way, even if the mounting rod 2 is in a moving state, the position of the laser spot can be ensured to always remain at the position of the bull's-eye. In addition, by arranging two lasers 31 in the parabolic antenna 3, dual-channel transmission of the laser is realized. When it is necessary to increase the power of the laser, the transmission path of the laser can also be changed by means of galvanometer reflection and zooming, etc., so as to combine two beams of laser into one beam of laser to increase the power of the laser.

[0043] The above is only an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention.
