Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of antenna technology, and in particular, relates to an antenna bracket and an antenna device. Background Art

[0002] A base station antenna in wireless communications is an electronic device used to transmit or receive radio or electromagnetic waves. It converts electrical signals into radio waves for transmission into space, and also collects radio waves to generate electrical signals. To achieve optimal transmission and reception, and to avoid reflections from buildings and trees, base station antennas are typically mounted on towers and poles. The signal transmitted by base station antennas is fan-shaped, radiating over a limited area. To adapt to changing network requirements in certain areas and achieve network optimization and adjustments, the angle of the base station antenna may need to be adjusted based on actual network conditions. Traditional base station antenna mounting brackets are mostly fixed, with the antenna angle set when the antenna is installed on the tower. If the antenna needs to be rotated to maximize communication reception, the angle of the bracket must be manually adjusted, which is very inconvenient. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application more clearly understood, the following further describes this application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0029] Before describing the various embodiments of this application in detail, let's first briefly describe the technical concept of this application: Currently, base station antennas are typically fixedly mounted on towers. Once installed, the antenna angle is fixed and difficult to adjust. To address this issue, this application provides an antenna bracket in which a rotating mast is rotatably mounted on a fixed clamping plate. The fixed clamping plate is mounted on the base station mast. A drive mechanism is used to rotate the rotating mast, thereby driving the base station antenna mounted on the rotating mast to rotate and adjust the base station antenna's angle. The specific principles of this application's antenna bracket will be described below in conjunction with more embodiments.

[0030] Specifically, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the antenna bracket provided in the first embodiment includes a first fixed clamp plate 10, a second fixed clamp plate 20, a rotating pole 30, and a driving mechanism 40. The first fixed clamp plate 10 is used to be installed on the base station pole 100, the second fixed clamp plate 20 is spaced apart from the first fixed clamp plate 10 and is used to be installed on the base station pole 100, the two ends of the rotating pole 30 are respectively rotatably connected to the first fixed clamp plate and the second fixed clamp plate, and the rotating pole 30 is used to install the base station antenna 200, and the driving mechanism is used to drive the rotating pole 30 to rotate.

[0031] In one or more embodiments, the antenna bracket further includes a mounting bracket 50, which is mounted on the rotating mast 30 and is used to connect to the base station antenna 200. For example, the mounting bracket 50 comprises an upper bracket and a lower bracket, and the tilt angle of the base station antenna 200 can be adjusted by the upper bracket and the lower bracket.

[0032] In one or more embodiments, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the first fixing clamp 10 includes a first clamp 11, a second clamp 12, and a connector 13. The first clamp 11 and the second clamp 12 abut against both sides of the base station pole 100. The connector 13 connects and fixes the first clamp 11 and the second clamp 12, so that the first fixing clamp 10 is installed on the base station pole 100. One end of the rotating pole 30 is rotatably connected to the first clamp 11. For example, the first clamp 11 defines a connecting hole 11a, and one end of the rotating pole 30 is rotatably inserted into the connecting hole 11a.

[0033] Exemplarily, the connectors 13 are two bolts. Both the first and second clips 11 and 12 have mounting holes 12a. The connectors 13 are inserted through the mounting holes 12a of the first and second clips 11 and 12 and tightened to secure them to the base station pole 100. Exemplarily, both the first and second clips 11 and 12 have arcuate slots 12b that match the shape of the outer wall of the base station pole 100, allowing the first and second clips 11 and 12 to be more stably mounted on the base station pole 100.

[0034] In one or more embodiments, the first fixing plate 10 and the second fixing plate 20 have the same structure and are arranged vertically. For example, the first fixing plate 10 is located above the second fixing plate 20, and the ends of the rotating holding rod 30 are respectively rotatably connected to the upper first clamping plate 11 and the lower first clamping plate 11.

[0035] For example, Figure 5 As shown, the rotating mast 30 includes a central axis 31 and an outer axis 32. The outer axis 32 is wrapped around the central axis 31. The ends of the central axis 31 extend from the outer axis 32 and are rotatably connected to the first fixed clamping plate 10 and the second fixed clamping plate 20, respectively. The diameter of the outer axis 32 is larger than the diameter of the connecting hole 11a. This prevents the outer axis 32 from passing through the connecting hole 11a and ensures that the rotating mast 30 does not fall off the first clamping plate 11.

[0036] In one or more embodiments, Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the drive mechanism 40 includes a motor 41, a screw 42, and a slider 43. The screw 42 is connected to the output shaft of the motor 41, and the slider 43 is threadedly connected to the screw 42. A fixing ear 33 is provided on the outer wall of the rotating arm 30, and the fixing ear 33 defines a U-shaped slot 34. The slider 43 is movably inserted into the U-shaped slot 34. The drive mechanism 40 also includes a mounting bracket 44, which is fixed to the second fixed clamping plate 20. The motor 41 and screw 42 are both mounted on the mounting bracket 44. When the motor 41 is started, it drives the screw 42 to rotate, driving the slider 43 to move linearly along the screw 42. The slider 43 slides in the U-shaped slot 34, driving the U-shaped slot 34 and the fixing ear 33 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating arm 30 to rotate. It should be noted that the U-shaped groove 34 is a smooth arc-shaped groove, and the slider 43 is movably arranged in the U-shaped groove 34, so that the slider 43 can slide in the U-shaped groove 34 while moving linearly, avoiding interference between the linear motion of the slider 43 and the rotation of the U-shaped groove 34 and the fixing ear 33.

[0037] In one or more embodiments, the driving mechanism 40 also includes a signal receiving device and a control device. The signal receiving device is used to receive an angle adjustment signal sent from the outside, and the control device is used to control the start and stop of the motor 41, thereby adjusting the angle of the base station antenna 200 to a predetermined angle and realizing remote control.

[0038] In one or more embodiments, the antenna device includes a base station antenna 200 and the above-mentioned antenna bracket, and the base station antenna 200 is installed on a rotating mast 20 .

[0039] The antenna bracket and antenna equipment disclosed in this embodiment utilize a drive mechanism to rotate a rotating mast, thereby adjusting the base station antenna angle and transmission angle. This allows for real-time adjustment of the antenna's horizontal direction according to user needs, optimizing and adjusting the network and improving signal quality. The drive mechanism can also be remotely controlled to adjust the antenna's mechanical azimuth, reducing the amount of on-site adjustment work, further improving network planning and optimization efficiency, and significantly reducing tower construction costs and safety risks.

[0040] The above describes in detail the specific implementation methods of the present application. Although some embodiments have been shown and described, those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments can be modified and improved without departing from the principles and spirit of the present application, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents. These modifications and improvements should also be within the scope of protection of the present application.
