[0002] An antenna is a device used to transmit or receive radio waves. Its primary function is to convert electrical energy into electromagnetic waves or vice versa. Antennas are typically composed of one or more conductors and can be categorized into various types based on their structure and characteristics, such as dipole antennas, monopole antennas, and directional antennas.

[0003] As a wireless device, an antenna is often required, and a connection structure is required between the antenna and the device to facilitate connection and adjustment between the antenna and the device.

[0004] In some antenna applications, in order to protect the antenna or support the antenna oscillator, a shell is generally used outside the antenna oscillator, such as the wireless antenna of the charging pile, the WI-FI antenna, etc., especially the current mushroom-shaped antenna is one of them. However, when installing the current mushroom-shaped antenna, it is necessary to lay the wires first and then connect the antenna. The antenna cannot be connected first, otherwise the screws cannot be passed through the feeder to fix the antenna. In addition, since the screws are located outside for a long time, after working for a long time, the screws on the antenna are prone to rust, making it difficult to disassemble and maintain. Therefore, the utility model proposes an antenna shell structure to at least partially solve the problems that may exist in the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0030] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the drawings herein can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0031] Example 1

[0032] The following describes some embodiments of the present application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features thereof may be combined with each other.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 1As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an antenna shell structure, which includes: a mushroom-shaped cavity component 101, which has a space for installing an antenna vibrator; a hollow threaded component 102, one end of which is provided with a thread and extends from the inside of the cavity component 101 to the outside of the cavity component 101; the feeder line 103 of the antenna vibrator extends out of the cavity component 101 through the hollow in the middle of the threaded component 102; an open-loop screw 104 is provided at the threaded position of the threaded component 102, and the width of the opening 105 of the open-loop screw 104 is not less than the diameter of the feeder line 103.

[0034] In this embodiment, some defects of the existing mushroom-shaped antenna installation are solved by introducing the combination of the hollow thread component 102 and the open-loop screw 104. Specifically, the width of the opening 105 of the open-loop screw 104 is not less than the wire diameter of the feeder 103, so that the vibrator can be installed in the cavity component 101 first, and the feeder 103 is passed through the hollow center of the hollow thread component 102, and then the open-loop screw 104 is passed through the opening 105 into the feeder 103, and then the open-loop screw 104 is screwed onto the thread of the thread component 102 and tightened, avoiding the need for threading or installing the antenna. , the screws are not first inserted into the feeder line 103, which requires the antenna to be disassembled and reinstalled, thereby simplifying the installation process and improving efficiency. Through the above-mentioned hollow threaded component 102, its thread position is connected using an open-loop screw 104, so that the inner diameter of the screw can have a certain elastic tension. Even if the screw rusts, it can be unscrewed with a tool by inserting a slightly wider wedge at the opening 105. Since the wedge is slightly wider than the opening, the diameter of the screw is correspondingly enlarged, the friction between the thread opening and the thread of the screw is reduced, making it easier to unscrew. The opening width of these open-loop screws is not less than the diameter of the feeder line 103. This design can reduce the situation where the screw is directly exposed to the external environment, reduce the possibility of screw corrosion, and extend the service life of the antenna.

[0035] It should be noted that, compared with ordinary screws, the middle part of which is hollow and the edges are closed, the above-mentioned open-loop screw 104, although hollow in the middle, has an opening 105 on its edge, making the edge of the above-mentioned open-loop screw 104 open rather than closed.

[0036] As a preferred embodiment, the cavity assembly 101 and the bracket assembly can be made of PVC. The above-mentioned PVC (polyvinyl chloride) is a commonly used plastic material with a long service life and is not easily affected by physical and chemical properties. Compared with other plastics, it is more economical and low-cost, and can also be recycled and reused, which helps to reduce the impact on the environment.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] The present invention provides an antenna housing structure. Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a bracket assembly; the bracket assembly includes a base 201 and a hollow tube 202 provided on the upper end of the base 201; the hollow tube 202 has an internal thread 204 adapted to the threaded assembly 102 at its upper end, and a side hole 203 for leading out the feeder 103 at its side end. Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the above-mentioned bracket assembly facilitates the installation of the antenna. Specifically, the above-mentioned threaded assembly 102 is connected to the internal thread 204 of the above-mentioned hollow tube 202, and the feeder 103 is passed through the above-mentioned side hole 203. Then, the base 201 is installed on the target to facilitate the fixed installation of the antenna.

[0039] As a preferred embodiment, refer to Figure 2 As shown, a magnetic pad 205 is provided at the lower end of the base 201. The magnetic pad 205 can be a magnet connected to the base 201, or a magnet covered with a thin soft pad, such as a silicone pad provided on the lower surface of the magnet. Magnetic mounting of the antenna allows the base 201 to be placed on an iron device housing for easy relocation. To provide a stronger magnetic force, the magnet can be a neodymium magnet.

[0040] As a preferred embodiment, the threaded assembly 102 and the open-loop screw 104 are made of copper or stainless steel, so that the screws can have a certain degree of elasticity and rigidity.

[0041] As a preferred embodiment, the cavity assembly 101 and the bracket assembly can be made of Teflon. The above-mentioned Teflon has excellent high temperature resistance, a smooth surface and good inertness. It is not easily susceptible to chemical corrosion and is suitable for use in various chemical environments. It is also an excellent electrical insulating material with good electrical insulation properties.

[0042] Example 3

[0043] The present invention provides an antenna housing structure. Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the cavity assembly 101 is provided with a rain canopy 106 in the direction of the threaded assembly 102; wherein, the depth of the rain canopy 106 is not less than the thickness of the open-loop screw 104. The rain canopy 106 structure, when used in conjunction with the bracket assembly for installation, can be placed in the desired position to protect against rain and provide good weather resistance, thereby preventing the threaded assembly 102 and the open-loop screw 104 from being soaked by water on rainy days or in environments with high humidity, thereby preventing the threads and screws from rusting and corroding. The rain canopy 106 is preferably deeper than the portion of the hollow threaded assembly 102 exposed outside the cavity assembly, which can maximize the protection of the metal parts exposed outside the cavity assembly 101 from being easily affected by moisture in environments with high humidity. It should be noted that since the lower end of the conventional mushroom-shaped cavity assembly 101 is relatively flat, in the case of rain, due to the surface tension of water, it is easy for water to flow along the lower end of the cavity assembly 101 to the position of the threaded assembly 102 and the open-loop screw 104, while the rain eaves 106 prevents water from flowing upward, so that the metal parts at the lower end of the cavity assembly 101 will not be soaked by rainwater.

[0044] It should also be noted that after the rain eaves 106 are installed, they can be directed downward or diagonally downward to ensure that water will flow back from their edges.

[0045] In a preferred embodiment, the cavity assembly 101 is made of PVC, ABS, or Teflon, and the bracket assembly is also made of PVC, ABS, or Teflon. The cavity assembly 101 and bracket assembly made of ABS (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer) possess high strength and rigidity, and can be manufactured into parts of various shapes and sizes through methods such as injection molding, making them suitable for large-scale production. ABS also offers a smooth, high-gloss surface that is easily treated with surface treatments such as painting and chrome plating, resulting in attractive aesthetics. It also possesses excellent impact resistance, resists cracking or deformation, and exhibits good tolerance to chemical corrosion, making it suitable for use in a variety of environmental conditions.
