[0035] Specifically, the housing 1 can be selected as a watch shell. The housing 1 is a disc structure. One side of the housing 1 is recessed to form a mounting groove 11. The bottom of the mounting groove 11 is circular. A through hole is provided on the side wall of the mounting groove 11 as a mounting via 12. The mounting via 12 penetrates the side wall of the mounting groove 11 along the radial direction of the mounting groove 11, so that one end of the mounting via 12 is exposed inside the mounting groove 11 and the other end of the mounting via 12 is exposed outside the housing 1.

[0036] The above-mentioned metal ring 2 can be selected as a circular structural part. The metal ring 2 is arranged around the notch of the mounting groove 11. The metal ring 2 is connected to the outside of the shell 1, and the metal ring 2 covers the mounting through-hole 12; after the conductive column 3 is passed through the mounting through-hole 12, one end of the conductive column 3 is exposed on the outside of the shell 1 and abuts against the metal ring 2, and the other end of the conductive column 3 is exposed inside the mounting groove 11, so that the end of the conductive column 3 located inside the mounting groove 11 is snap-connected with the connector 4.

[0037] The connector 4 can be a metal sheet structure that extends along the recessed direction of the mounting slot 11. One end of the connector 4 is provided with a through hole, and the conductive post 3 is inserted into the through hole of the connector 4. The inner wall of the through hole in the connector 4 abuts against the inner wall of the conductive post 3, thereby securing the connector 4 to the conductive post 3. Of course, an elastic buckle can also be provided on the connector 4. After the conductive post 3 is inserted into the elastic buckle, the elastic buckle and the conductive post 3 are secured.

[0038] The end of the connector 4 away from the conductive column 3 extends toward the bottom of the mounting groove 11, so that the connector 4 abuts against the mainboard 6, thereby electrically connecting the mainboard 6 to the metal ring 2 through the connector 4 and the conductive column 3, so that the metal ring 2 serves as the antenna of the mainboard 6, and the mainboard 6 receives and sends signals through the metal ring 2.

[0039] The above-mentioned waterproof ring 5 can be selected as an annular rubber part or an annular plastic part. The waterproof ring 5 is sleeved on the outside of the conductive column 3. The inner side of the waterproof ring 5 abuts against the conductive column 3, and the outer side abuts against the hole wall of the mounting hole 12, so that the waterproof ring 5 is sealed and connected to the conductive column 3. The waterproof ring 5 is sealed and connected to the mounting hole 12 to prevent liquid from entering the interior of the mounting groove 11 through the mounting hole.

[0040] When the antenna mounting structure of the smart watch provided by the embodiment of the present application is used, the mainboard 6 is installed at the bottom of the mounting groove 11, the conductive column 3 is inserted into the mounting hole 12, one end of the conductive column 3 is in contact with the metal ring 2, and the other end is snap-connected to the connector 4, the connector 4 is in contact with the mainboard 6, the waterproof ring 5 is sleeved on the outside of the conductive column 3, and the waterproof ring 5 is in contact with the hole wall of the mounting hole 12, the mainboard 6 is electrically connected to the metal ring 2 through the connector 4 and the conductive column 3, so that the metal ring 2 serves as an antenna, and the mainboard 6 can receive and send signals through the metal ring 2.

[0041] The antenna mounting structure of the smart watch provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a shell 1, a metal ring 2, a conductive column 3, a connector 4 and a waterproof ring 5; one side of the shell 1 is recessed to form a mounting groove 11, so that the interior of the mounting groove 11 can be used to install various components of the watch, and the bottom of the mounting groove 11 is provided with a mainboard 6, and the side wall of the mounting groove 11 is provided with a mounting through-hole 12, the metal ring 2 is connected to the outside of the shell 1 and covers the mounting through-hole 12; the connector 4 is arranged in the mounting groove 11, the conductive column 3 is passed through the mounting through-hole 12, and the waterproof ring 5 is sealed and connected between the conductive column 3 and the inner wall of the mounting through-hole 12, so that the conductive column 3 and the waterproof ring 5 block the mounting through-hole 12 to prevent liquid from entering the interior of the mounting groove 11 through the mounting through-hole 12; one end of the conductive column 3 abuts against the metal ring 2, and the other end is clamped with the connector 4, and the connector 4 extends toward the bottom of the mounting groove 11 to be connected to the mainboard 6. When assembling the smart watch, the mainboard and the connector can be installed in the installation groove 11 first, and the conductive column 3 can be passed through the installation through hole and connected to the connector 4, thereby completing the pre-assembly of the mainboard, the connector and the conductive column. Then, the metal ring 2 can be connected to the outside of the shell 1 so that the metal ring 2 abuts against the conductive column 3 to complete the electrical connection between the metal ring 2 and the mainboard 6, thereby facilitating the electrical connection operation between the mainboard 6 and the metal ring 2, and improving the operational convenience of assembling the mainboard 6 and the metal ring 2 on the shell 1, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the smart watch.

[0042] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown, in some embodiments, a metal ring 2 is disposed around the mounting slot 11. A metal elastic sheet 21 is provided on the side of the metal ring 2 facing the mounting via 12. The metal elastic sheet 21 is disposed opposite the mounting via 12 and is bent toward the mounting via 12. The metal elastic sheet 21 abuts against the conductive post 3. This arrangement allows the elasticity of the metal elastic sheet 21 to maintain contact with the conductive post 3, thereby improving the stability of the electrical connection between the mainboard 6 and the metal ring 2.

[0043] Specifically, the metal ring 2 is arranged around the mounting groove 11 so that the notch of the mounting groove 11 is located on the inner side of the metal ring 2; the metal elastic sheet 21 can be selected as a sheet structure made of metal, and the metal elastic sheet 21 is elastic. One end of the metal elastic sheet 21 is connected to the metal ring 2, and the other end is bent toward the mounting through hole 12. The conductive column 3 abuts against the metal elastic sheet 21, so that the elastic force of the metal elastic sheet 21 is applied to the conductive column 3, ensuring the stability of the connection between the metal elastic sheet 21 and the conductive column 3.

[0044] When the housing 1 or the metal ring 2 is vibrated, causing relative movement between the metal ring 2 and the housing 1 , the metal elastic sheet 21 can undergo elastic deformation, thereby keeping the metal elastic sheet 21 in contact with the conductive column 3 , so that the mainboard 6 always remains connected to the metal ring 2 .

[0045] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, a connecting spring 61 is provided on the mainboard 6, and the end of the connector 4 away from the conductive pillar 3 abuts the connecting spring 61, thereby electrically connecting the connector 4 to the mainboard 6 via the connecting spring 61. This arrangement allows the connecting spring 61 to abut against the connector 4, preventing damage to the mainboard 6 that could occur if the connector 4 directly abuts against the mainboard 6. Furthermore, the elastic force of the connecting spring 61 maintains a stable abutment between the connecting spring 61 and the connector 4, ensuring electrical connection between the connector 4 and the mainboard 6.

[0046] Specifically, the connecting spring piece 61 is made of metal, and the connecting spring piece 61 can be selected as a block structure, of course, it can also be selected as a sheet structure. The end of the connector 4 away from the conductive column 3 is in contact with the connecting spring piece 61. The connecting spring piece 61 is in a compressed state at this time. The elastic force of the connecting spring piece 61 is applied to the main board 6 and the connector 4, so that the main board 6 and the connector 4 can maintain a stable connection state.

[0047] Reference Figures 1 to 7 as well as Figure 9As shown, in some embodiments, the connector 4 includes a first plate portion 41 and a second plate portion 42; the first plate portion 41 is arranged along the recessed direction of the mounting slot 11, one end of the first plate portion 41 is engaged with the conductive column 3, and the other end is connected to the second plate portion 42, and the first plate portion 41 is closely connected to the side wall of the mounting slot 11; the second plate portion 42 is bent in a direction away from the side wall of the mounting slot 11 so that the second plate portion 42 is connected to the main board 6. In this arrangement, the first plate portion 41 is closely attached to the side wall of the mounting slot 11 and extends along the recessed direction of the mounting slot 11, so that the second plate portion 42 is close to the main board 6. The second plate portion 42 is bent and can extend in a direction close to the main board 6, which facilitates the connection between the second plate portion 42 and the main board 6; the first plate portion 41 and the second plate portion 42 can reasonably utilize the space in the mounting slot 11, avoiding interference between the first plate portion 41 and the second plate portion 42 and other components installed in the mounting slot 11;

[0048] Specifically, the first plate portion 41 can be selected as a straight plate, or a plate structure that fits the side wall of the mounting groove 11. The first plate portion 41 and the side wall of the mounting groove 11 can be connected by bonding. Of course, the side wall of the mounting groove 11 can also be provided with a snap buckle, and the first plate portion 41 and the side wall of the mounting groove 11 can be connected by a snap buckle.

[0049] The first plate portion 41 may be provided with a slot, and the conductive column 3 may be connected to the slot. Alternatively, one end of the first plate portion 41 may be provided with a buckle, and the other end may be connected to the second plate portion 42 , and the buckle may be connected to the conductive column 3 .

[0050] The above-mentioned second plate portion 42 can be selected as a straight plate, and the second plate portion 42 and the first plate portion 41 are connected to each other using an arc-shaped surface structure to achieve a smooth transition between the first plate portion 41 and the second plate portion 42; of course, the second plate portion 42 can also be selected as a curved plate, and the second plate portion 42 is bent toward the center of the bottom of the mounting groove 11 in a direction parallel to the mounting groove 11, so that the second plate portion 42 can be connected to the main board 6 on the bottom of the mounting groove 11.

[0051] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 5 by, Figure 6 、 Figure 7 and Figure 9As shown, in some embodiments, the connector 4 is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove 43. The conductive post 3 includes a first post 31, a connecting post 33, and a second post 32. The first post 31 and the second post 32 are respectively connected to the ends of the connecting post 33. The waterproof ring 5 is sleeved on the outside of the connecting post 33. The connecting post 33 is inserted into the mounting hole 12. The first post 31 is exposed inside the mounting groove 11 and snaps into the snap-fit ​​groove 43. The second post 32 is exposed outside the housing 1 and abuts against the metal ring 2. This arrangement facilitates the connection operation between the first post 31 and the connector 4 within the mounting groove 11. After the first post 31 and the connector 4 are installed, the relative movement between the first post 31 and the housing 1 is limited, ensuring that the conductive post 3 is stably positioned in the mounting hole 12. The second post 32 is exposed outside the housing 1, facilitating the abutment connection between the second post 32 and the metal ring 2 after the metal ring 2 is spaced apart from the housing 1.

[0052] Specifically, the first column 31, the second column 32 and the connecting column 33 can all be cylindrical structures, and the first column 31, the connecting column 33 and the second column 32 can be arranged in sequence along a straight line. The diameters of the first column 31, the second column 32 and the connecting column 33 can be selected to be less than or equal to the diameter of the mounting hole 12, so that the connecting column 33 is passed through the mounting hole 12, so that the first column 31 is exposed on the side of the mounting hole 12 close to the mounting groove 11, and the second column 32 is exposed on the outside of the shell 1.

[0053] The connector 4 is provided with a snap-fitting groove 43, into which the first column 31 is inserted, allowing the first column 31 to snap into engagement with the snap-fitting groove 43. Alternatively, the connector 4 may be provided with a snap, with the first column 31 snap-fitting into engagement with the snap on the connector 4. The end of the second column 32, distal from the first column 31, abuts against the metal ring 2. If the metal ring 2 is provided with a metal elastic sheet 21, the second column 32 abuts against the metal elastic sheet 21. The snap-fitting groove 43 may be a through slot extending through the connector 4, and may be provided on the first plate portion 41.

[0054] The size of the above-mentioned snap-in groove 43 can be selected to be smaller than the first column 31, the connecting piece 4 is elastic, and the snap-in groove 43 can be selected to be a through groove that passes through the connecting piece 4; the snap-in groove 43 is deformed so that the first column 31 can be passed through the snap-in groove 43, and the first column 31 abuts against the inner wall of the snap-in groove 43 so that the first column 31 is snapped into the snap-in groove 43; of course, it is also possible to select an annular groove provided on the first column 31, and the size of the snap-in groove 43 matches the size of the annular groove. The first column 31 is inserted into the snap-in groove 43, and the connecting piece 4 is elastically deformed so that the first column 31 is passed through the snap-in groove 43, so that the edge of the snap-in groove 43 enters the annular groove, thereby making the first column 31 snap-in connected to the first column 31.

[0055] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 5by, Figure 6 、 Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the snap-in slot 43 extends along the recessed direction of the mounting slot 11, and the snap-in slot 43 forms elastic arms 44 on the inner walls on both sides perpendicular to the recessed direction of the mounting slot 11, respectively. The two elastic arms 44 are arranged in the middle of the mounting slot 11, so that the mounting slot 11 forms a first through slot 431 and a second through slot 432, and the first through slot 431 and the second through slot 432 are respectively arranged on both sides of the elastic arm 44, so that the first column 31 can move between the first through slot 431 and the second through slot 432; along the recessed direction perpendicular to the mounting slot 11, the dimension between the two elastic arms 44 is smaller than the dimension of the first column 31, so that when the first column 31 is in the second through slot 432, the first column 31 abuts against the two elastic arms 44 on one side along the recessed direction of the mounting slot 11, and abuts against the inner wall of the second through slot 432 on the other side.

[0056] With such a configuration, the first column 31 can be first inserted into the first through groove 431, and then the first column 31 can be moved from the first through groove 431 to the second through groove 432, so that the first column 31 can abut against the elastic arm 44 and the inner wall of the second through groove 432. By moving the connecting member 4 relative to the conductive column 3 in the recessed direction of the mounting groove 11, the clamping operation of the connecting member 4 and the conductive column 3 can be completed, thereby improving the operational convenience of connecting the connecting member 4 and the conductive column 3 with each other.

[0057] Specifically, the engaging groove 43 extends along the recessed direction of the mounting groove 11. Block structures are formed on the inner walls of the engaging groove 43 that are perpendicular to and opposite to the recessed direction of the mounting groove 11. When the bottom of the mounting groove 11 is circular, the inner walls of the engaging groove 43 that are perpendicular to and opposite to the recessed direction of the mounting groove 11 are the inner walls of the engaging groove 43 that are perpendicular to and opposite to the circumference of the mounting groove 11. The block structures serve as elastic arms 44. Two block structures are disposed opposite each other in a direction perpendicular to the recessed direction of the mounting groove 11. The two elastic arms 44 are disposed in the middle of the mounting groove 11 in the recessed direction of the mounting groove 11, thereby dividing the mounting groove 11 into a first through-slot 431 and a second through-slot 432.

[0058] The above-mentioned first through groove 431 can be optionally arranged on the side of the second through groove 432 along the recessed direction of the mounting groove 11 close to the bottom of the mounting groove 11. Of course, the first through groove 431 can also be selected to be arranged on the side of the second through groove 432 along the recessed direction of the mounting groove 11 away from the bottom of the mounting groove 11.

[0059] The above-mentioned first through groove 431 and second through groove 432 are connected to each other. The size of the first through groove 431 in the recessed direction perpendicular to the installation groove 11 can be selected to be larger than the size of the first column 31, so that the first column 31 can move along the recessed direction of the installation groove 11 in the first through groove 431.

[0060] The second through-slot 432 has an abutment wall on the side opposite the elastic arm 44 in the recessed direction of the mounting slot 11. The distance between the abutment wall and the elastic arm 44 in the recessed direction of the mounting slot 11 is equal to the size of the first column 31. When the first column 31 is in the second through-slot 432, the first column 31 abuts against the elastic arm 44 and the abutment wall on two opposing sides along the recessed direction of the mounting slot 11, respectively, thereby securing the first column 31 in the second through-slot 432.

[0061] Of course, you can also choose to set abutment protrusions on the side surface of the second through groove 432 and the elastic arm 44 opposite to the recessed direction of the installation groove 11, and the two side surfaces of the first column 31 along the recessed direction of the installation groove 11 are respectively connected to the elastic arm 44 and the abutment protrusion, so that the first column 31 is clamped in the second through groove 432.

[0062] The size of the second through groove 432 in the recessed direction perpendicular to the mounting groove 11 can be selected to be larger than the size of the first column 31, so that the first column 31 abuts against the elastic arm 44 on one side along the recessed direction of the mounting groove 11, and abuts against the abutting surface or the abutting protrusion on the other side; of course, the size of the second through groove 432 in the recessed direction perpendicular to the mounting groove 11 can also be selected to be equal to the size of the first column 31, so that the first column 31 abuts against the two elastic arms 44, and the first column 31 abuts against the inner wall of the second through groove 432.

[0063] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 5 by, Figure 6 、 Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments, a snap ring groove 35 is provided on the side of the first column 31. The snap ring groove 35 is disposed in the middle of the first column 31. The edge of the snap ring groove 43 is disposed within the snap ring groove 35 and abuts against the bottom of the snap ring groove 35. This configuration facilitates positioning of the snap ring groove 35 for engagement with the first column 31. The snap ring groove 35 also limits relative movement between the conductive post 3 and the connector 4 in the axial direction of the conductive post 3, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the connector 4 and the conductive post 3, and enhancing the stability of the connector 4 and the conductive post 3 when mounted on the housing 1.

[0064] Specifically, the snap ring groove 35 is an annular groove formed by the side depression of the first column 31. The snap ring groove 35 is arranged in the middle of the first column 31, so that the snap ring groove 35 has two opposite side walls in the axial direction of the conductive column 3; when the snap groove 43 includes a first through groove 431, a second through groove 432 and an elastic arm 44, the edge of the second through groove 432 and the two elastic arms 44 are arranged in the snap ring groove 35, and the inner wall of the second through groove 432 and the two elastic arms 44 are in contact with the bottom of the snap ring groove 35, so that the relative movement between the conductive column 3 and the connector 4 is restricted, completing the snap connection between the first column 31 and the second through groove 432.

[0065] When the aforementioned snap-fit ​​groove 43 is a through groove on the connector 4, the size of the snap-fit ​​groove 43 can be selected to be smaller than that of the first column 31, and the size of the snap-fit ​​groove 43 matches the diameter of the bottom of the snap-fit ​​ring groove 35. The connector 4 elastically deforms to allow the first column 31 to pass through the snap-fit ​​groove 43. At this time, the portion of the connector 4 surrounding the snap-fit ​​groove 43 is inserted into the snap-fit ​​ring groove 35, and the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​groove 43 abuts against the bottom of the snap-fit ​​ring groove 35. This restricts the relative movement between the conductive column 3 and the connector 4, completing the snap-fit ​​connection between the first column 31 and the snap-fit ​​groove 43.

[0066] The aforementioned snap ring groove 35 has two opposing sidewalls in the axial direction of the conductive post 3. When the portion of the connector 4 surrounding the snap ring groove 43 is located within the snap ring groove 35, the relative movement of the first post 31 and the connector 4 in the axial direction of the conductive post 3 is restricted. Consequently, after the first post 31 and the connector 4 are connected, and the conductive post 3 is inserted into the mounting via 12, when the conductive post 3 moves away from the interior of the mounting groove 11, the connector 4 abuts against the sidewalls of the mounting groove 11, thereby restricting the movement of the conductive post 3.

[0067] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 5 by, Figure 6 、 Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the diameter of the connecting post 33 is smaller than the diameters of the first column 31 and the second column 32, so that the facing sides of the first column 31 and the second column 32 and the outer side of the connecting post 33 jointly form a mounting groove 34. The waterproof ring 5 is disposed in the mounting groove and is sealed to the inner wall of the mounting groove 34. A portion of the waterproof ring 5 is exposed outside the notch of the mounting groove 34 to be sealed to the wall of the mounting via 12. In this arrangement, the waterproof ring 5 is stably connected to the connecting post 33 and is retained in the mounting groove 34. During the insertion of the conductive post 3 into the mounting via 12, the waterproof ring 5 maintains a stable relative position to the connecting post 33, preventing relative movement between the waterproof ring 5 and the connecting post 33.

[0068] Specifically, the first column 31, the second column 32 and the connecting column 33 are all cylindrical columns. The diameters of the first column 31 and the second column 32 can be selected to be equal, and the connecting column 33 can be smaller than the diameters of the first column 31 and the second column 32. Of course, the diameter of the first column 31 can also be selected to be larger than the diameter of the second column 32, and the connecting column 33 can be smaller than the diameter of the second column 32. Or it is not limited to the diameter of the first column 31 being smaller than the diameter of the second column 32, and the connecting column 33 being smaller than the diameter of the first column 31; as long as the first column 31 and the second column 32 can form the installation ring groove 34 together with the connecting column 33, the waterproof ring 5 can be set in the installation ring groove 34.

[0069] The difference between the outer diameter and the inner diameter of the waterproof ring 5 can be selected to be greater than the depth of the mounting ring groove 34, so that after the waterproof ring 5 is sleeved on the connecting column 33 and set in the mounting ring groove 34, part of the waterproof ring 5 is exposed on the outside of the notch of the mounting ring groove 34, so that the mounting ring groove 34 can abut against the hole wall of the mounting through hole 12, so that the conductive column 3 and the waterproof ring 5 block the mounting through hole 12.

[0070] Reference Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, an abutment portion 36 is provided at one end of the second post 32 away from the first post 31. The abutment portion 36 protrudes radially along the second post 32 and abuts against the outer side of the housing 1 along the axial direction of the second post 32 toward the side of the first post 31. In this arrangement, the abutment portion 36 abuts against the outer side of the housing 1, thereby restricting the conductive post 3 from passing through the mounting hole 12 in the direction from the second post 32 toward the first post 31, thereby reducing the change in the relative position between the conductive post 3 and the housing 1 and preventing the conductive post 3 from falling out of the mounting hole 12.

[0071] Specifically, a ring-shaped protrusion structure can be formed at one end of the second column 32 away from the first column 31, and the diameter of the ring-shaped protrusion structure is larger than the diameter of the mounting hole 12. The conductive column 3 is inserted into the mounting hole 12 along the direction of the second column 32 toward the first column 31. The conductive column 3 moves so that the ring-shaped protrusion structure abuts against the outer side of the shell 1, thereby limiting the second column 32 from passing through the mounting hole 12.

[0072] The above-mentioned abutment portion 36 may also optionally include a plurality of blocks, which are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the second column 32. When the conductive column 3 is inserted into the mounting hole 12 along the direction of the second column 32 toward the first column 31, the conductive column 3 moves so that the annular protrusion structure abuts against the outer side of the shell 1, thereby limiting the second column 32 from passing through the mounting hole 12.

[0073] Reference Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, in a direction away from the bottom of the mounting slot 11, the two elastic arms 44 are inclined and approach each other on opposite sides perpendicular to the recessed direction of the mounting slot 11. With this arrangement, when the first column 31 moves from the first through-slot 431 to the second through-slot 432, the first column 31 can push the two elastic arms 44 to elastically deform and move away from each other, thereby facilitating the movement of the first column 31 from the first through-slot 431 to the second through-slot 432.

[0074] Specifically, along the recessed direction of the mounting groove 11, the two elastic arms 44 are inclined and approach each other in the direction away from the bottom of the mounting groove 11, so that the side of the two elastic arms 44 facing the first through groove 431 is an inclined surface, and the two inclined surfaces approach each other in the direction away from the bottom of the mounting groove 11. When the first column 31 moves from the first through groove 431 to the second through groove 432, the force applied by the first column 31 to the two inclined surfaces can make the two elastic arms 44 move away from each other, thereby facilitating the movement of the first column 31 to the second through groove 432.

[0075] An embodiment of the present application also provides a smart watch, comprising the antenna mounting structure of any of the smart watches described above.

[0076] By using the above-mentioned antenna mounting structure of the smart watch on the smart watch, the connector 4 and the conductive column 3 are pre-installed in the shell 1, so that the conductive column 3 is passed through the mounting hole 12, and the metal ring 2 is connected to the shell 1, so that the metal ring 2 is abutted against the conductive column 3 to complete the electrical connection between the metal ring 2 and the mainboard 6.

[0077] When the antenna mounting structure of the smart watch provided in this application is used and the smart watch is used, the waterproof ring 5 is placed on the connecting column 33 so that the waterproof ring 5 is located in the mounting ring groove 34; the first column 31 of the conductive column 3 is inserted into the mounting hole 12 from the outside of the shell 1, so that the abutting portion 36 abuts against the outside of the shell 1, and the waterproof ring 5 abuts against the hole wall of the mounting hole 12.

[0078] The first post 31 is inserted into the first through-slot 431, and the connector 4 is moved along the recessed direction of the mounting slot 11 toward the bottom of the mounting slot 11, causing the first post 31 to move from the first through-slot 431 to the second through-slot 432. The two elastic arms 44 and the inner wall of the second through-slot 432 abut against the bottom of the snap ring groove 35, securing the first post 31 to the snap groove 43. The second plate portion 42 abuts against the connecting spring 61 on the mainboard 6, electrically connecting the connector 4 to the mainboard 6, thereby completing the pre-installation of the connector 4 and the conductive post 3 within the mounting slot 11.

[0079] The metal ring 2 is connected to the outside of the housing 1, and the metal elastic piece 21 on the metal ring 2 abuts against the second column 32, so that the mainboard 6 is electrically connected to the metal ring 2 through the connector 4 and the conductive column 3. The mainboard 6 uses the metal ring 2 as an antenna to receive and send signals.
