Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of wireless communication equipment router antennas, and in particular relates to a folding antenna for wireless communication equipment. Background Art

[0002] A router is a hardware device that connects two or more networks and acts as a gateway between networks. It is a dedicated intelligent network device that reads the address in each data packet and then decides how to transmit it. It can understand different protocols, such as the Ethernet protocol used in a local area network and the TCP / IP protocol used in the Internet. In order to meet market demand, existing router folding antennas are generally optimized in terms of how to fold better and how to make it more convenient for users to operate, but whether they can be well installed is often ignored. Existing router folding antennas have the advantages of better folding effect and more convenient operation, but have certain limitations. During normal installation, they are generally fixed directly through threads, which can easily lead to the situation that the antenna is directly fixed in a certain position after installation, causing trouble for folding and not conducive to quick installation. In summary, the problems existing in the prior art are: the installation process is troublesome and not conducive to quick installation.

[0003] To this end, a folding antenna for a household router with a bulletin number of "CN210157210U" includes a router body, circular placement grooves are provided on both sides of the front side of the router body, and card slots are provided inside the two circular placement grooves, and fixed blocks are inserted inside the two circular placement grooves, and card connection mechanisms are fixedly installed inside the two fixed blocks, and folding antennas are fixedly installed on the front sides of the two fixed blocks, and four strip grooves are provided on the front side of the router body, and the four strip grooves are located on the left and right sides of the two circular placement grooves. By setting the router body, circular placement grooves, card slots, fixed blocks, card connection mechanisms, storage grooves, extrusion springs, arc-shaped card blocks, strip grooves, propulsion mechanisms, elastic rods, push blocks, extrusion blocks and folding antennas, the existing installation process is troublesome and not conducive to quick installation. The folding antenna for a household router has the advantage of quick installation.

[0004] However, for the above-mentioned folding antenna for home routers, although the shape of the card slot is annular, which can achieve a better folding effect of the folding antenna and a better card connection effect of the arc card block, thereby making the installation process faster, the following obvious defects still exist during use: the above-mentioned folding antenna can only be rotated and folded at the bottom of the antenna, and since the antenna is an integrated structure and cannot be folded to shorten the height of the antenna, the antenna of the wireless communication device cannot be folded to adjust the height according to the height of the placement space.

The antenna rotation connection groove 2 is movably provided with an antenna hinge base 3 for rotational folding, so that the folding antenna A 4 is dampedly movably hinged with the antenna hinge base 3. The folding antenna A 4 is movably hinged on the antenna hinge base 3, which can make the folding antenna A 4 rotate and fold. The antenna rotation connection groove 2 is provided with a circumferential limit groove 5 for limiting the rotation of the antenna hinge base 3, which plays a role in limiting the rotation of the antenna hinge base 3. The circumferential limit groove 5 is provided with a limit disc 6 for positioning the rotation folding and unfolding of the folding antenna A 4, so as to keep the rotation folding stable during the rotation of the antenna hinge base 3;

[0027] The folding antenna B7 has an end that is limitedly sleeved with an expansion locking sleeve 8 with internal threads, so that the folding antenna B7 and the folding antenna A4 are expanded and locked and fixed together. One end of the folding antenna A4 has a threaded surface on the outside. The bottom end of the folding antenna B7 is provided with a hinge seat 9 that is movably hinged to the folding antenna A4, and the hinge seat 9 is connected to the folding antenna A4 with a damping property during movement. The top end inside the folding antenna B7 is connected with an elastic member 10, so that the flexible antenna inner core 11 will not generate a tensile force during the folding process of the antenna. The bottom end of the elastic member 10 is provided with a flexible antenna inner core 11 that movably penetrates to the outside of the hinge seat 9, realizing that the wireless communication device works wirelessly.

[0028] The surface side of the limit disk 6 is evenly provided with positioning jacks 12, so that the limit insertion pull rod 14 is inserted into the positioning jacks 12 to position the limit disk 6. And an activity cavity 13 is provided inside the side wall of the circumferential limit groove 5 corresponding to the positioning jacks 12, which can make the limit insertion pull rod 14 stretch and pull. The activity cavity 13 is provided with a limit insertion pull rod 14 that is limitedly penetrated to the outside of the device housing 1 and inside the circumferential limit groove 5. The limit insertion pull rod 14 is movably inserted into the positioning jacks 12 to position the limit disk 6.

And when the height of the antenna cannot be placed during the use of the folding antenna, the folding antenna can be rotated and folded to one side of the device housing 1. At the same time, the expansion locking sleeve 8 connecting the two folding antennas is unscrewed from one end of the folding antenna A4, and the folding antenna B7 is vertically folded at a 90-degree right angle to the folding antenna A4, reducing the height of the folding antenna, so that the antenna of the wireless communication device can be folded to shorten the height, and then the wireless communication device can be placed and used in a narrow space. The folding antenna can be adjusted to fold and shorten according to the height of the placement and use space, and at the same time, the folding antenna can be rotated at different angles. And the rotated folding antenna is inserted into the corresponding positioning jack 12 on the limit disc 6 through the limit insertion pull rod 14 using the resilience of the reset elastic member 15 to achieve the positioning of the limit disc 6 after rotation, and the antenna hinge base 3 is positioned in the antenna rotation connection groove 2, so that the folding antenna can be rotated and adjusted to different angles for positioning, and thus the folding antenna can maintain the stability and firmness of the position after the angle adjustment.
