Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of radar antenna technology, specifically to an adjustable integrated antenna. Background Technology
[0002] In radar applications, traditional radar antenna adjustment methods often have several limitations. Firstly, some radar antennas have complex directional and elevation adjustment mechanisms with poor coordination between components, leading to cumbersome adjustment processes that require highly skilled and experienced operators. This not only increases operational difficulty and time costs but also increases the risk of errors, affecting the normal operation of the radar. Secondly, some radar antenna adjustment mechanisms lack flexibility and independence. Precise control is difficult when adjusting the elevation or directional angle of the antenna, and mutual interference is common. Adjusting the elevation angle may inadvertently change the radar's direction, and vice versa, failing to meet the precise pointing requirements of different scenarios. Furthermore, existing adjustment mechanisms lack compactness and integrated design, resulting in large equipment size, significant space requirements, and inconvenient installation and transportation. This limits the application of radar antennas in situations with limited space or high portability requirements. Utility Model Content

The elevation angle adjustment component controls the radar antenna body to rotate around a horizontal axis; the direction adjustment component controls the radar antenna body to rotate around a vertical axis.
[0005] When adjusting the elevation angle of the radar antenna body, the control component drives the first control gear to rotate and controls the second control gear to be fixed, so that the radar antenna body rotates around the horizontal axis and adjusts the elevation angle of the radar antenna body.
[0006] When adjusting the orientation of the radar antenna body, the control component drives the second control gear to rotate and controls the first control gear to be fixed, so that the radar antenna body rotates around the vertical axis and adjusts the orientation of the radar antenna body.
[0007] Preferably, the control component includes an adjustment frame horizontally disposed below the radar antenna body, and a control element slidably disposed on the adjustment frame along the axis parallel to the first control gear. The control element controls the first control gear or the second control gear to rotate. The adjustment frame is sleeved on the first control gear and the second control gear, and the adjustment frame is rotatably connected to the ends of the first control gear and the second control gear. The first control gear and the second control gear are coaxially disposed.
[0008] Preferably, the control component includes a movable rod slidably mounted on the adjustment frame via a control structure, fixed gears mounted at both ends of the movable rod and capable of meshing with a first control gear or a second control gear, and a drive gear mounted between the movable rods and driven by a drive motor. The distance between the two fixed gears is greater than the distance between the opposite ends of the first and second control gears, and the lengths of both the first and second control gears are less than the distance between the fixed gear and the drive gear.
[0009] Preferably, the control structure includes a movable lead screw that passes through a movable slot in the body of the adjustment frame along the axial direction of the first control gear, and a movable block that is threadedly sleeved on the body of the movable lead screw. The movable block is connected to the middle part of the body of the movable lead screw, and the movable lead screw is driven by a motor.
[0010] Preferably, the control component further includes a distance adjustment structure for controlling the distance between the two fixed gears. The distance adjustment structure includes two telescopic rods with one end perpendicularly connected to the opposite surfaces of the two fixed gears, a distance adjustment block disposed in the middle between the two fixed gears, two adjacent rods with one end rotatably connected to the two ends of the distance adjustment block and the other end rotatably connected to different fixed gears, and a distance adjustment module for controlling the distance between the distance adjustment block and the moving rod. The two telescopic rods slide through the ends of the moving rods at their respective close-to-each ends.
[0011] Preferably, the pitch adjustment module includes a pitch adjustment screw arranged along the length of the vertical moving rod, a pitch adjustment motor arranged on the pitch adjustment screw and controlling the rotation of the pitch adjustment screw, and a slider slidably passing through a linkage groove opened in the adjustment frame along the length of the parallel moving rod. The slider is connected to the pitch adjustment motor, and the pitch adjustment screw is threadedly connected to the pitch adjustment block.
[0012] Preferably, the pitch angle adjustment assembly includes a rotating column mounted on the radar antenna body, a rotating block whose top end is rotatably connected to the rotating column and whose bottom end is mounted on the adjustment frame, a transmission gear rotatably mounted on the rotating block and located above and meshing with the first control gear, and a driven gear rotatably mounted on the rotating block and whose end is connected to the rotating column, the driven gear meshing with the transmission gear.

[0015] Preferably, the adjustment mechanism further includes a horizontal calibration device disposed on the radar antenna body. The horizontal calibration device is electrically connected to the control component. When the horizontal calibration device detects that the radar antenna body is not horizontal, it sends a signal to the control component.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0017] 1. By setting up a first control gear and a second control gear, along with corresponding control components, independent and precise adjustment of the radar antenna's elevation angle and direction is achieved. When the elevation angle of the radar antenna needs adjustment, the control components drive the first control gear to rotate while fixing the second control gear, causing the radar antenna to rotate around its lateral axis, thus precisely adjusting the elevation angle. When the direction of the radar antenna needs adjustment, the control components drive the second control gear to rotate while fixing the first control gear, causing the radar antenna to rotate around its vertical axis, achieving precise direction adjustment. This independent adjustment mechanism avoids interference with other angles when adjusting one angle, greatly improving the accuracy and flexibility of adjustment, and meeting the needs for precise pointing of the radar antenna in different scenarios.
[0018] 2. The entire adjustment mechanism integrates the pitch and azimuth adjustment components, achieving a compact and integrated structure through rational design and layout. The tight connections between components reduce the equipment's size, save installation space, and facilitate installation and transportation. This integrated design not only improves the overall stability and reliability of the equipment but also enables it to operate normally in environments with limited space, expanding the application range of radar antennas.

[0027] To make the technical means, creative features, and achieved objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model is further described below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. However, the following embodiments are only preferred embodiments of this utility model and not all of them. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments described in the embodiments without creative effort are all within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0028] Example 1: Reference Figures 1-6An adjustable integrated antenna is shown, comprising a radar antenna body 7 and an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the direction and elevation angle of the radar antenna body 7. The adjustment mechanism includes a first control gear 14 and a second control gear 15 laterally disposed below the radar antenna body 7, an elevation angle adjustment component connecting the first control gear 14 and the radar antenna body 7, a direction adjustment component connecting the second control gear 15, and a control component that controls one of the first control gear 14 and the second control gear 15 to rotate while fixing the other. The elevation angle adjustment component controls the radar antenna body 7 to rotate around a horizontal axis; the direction adjustment component controls the radar antenna body 7 to rotate around a vertical axis.
[0029] When adjusting the elevation angle of the radar antenna body 7, the control component drives the first control gear 14 to rotate and controls the second control gear 15 to be fixed, so that the radar antenna body 7 rotates around the transverse axis and adjusts the elevation angle of the radar antenna body 7.
[0030] When adjusting the direction of the radar antenna body 7, the control component drives the second control gear 15 to rotate and controls the first control gear 14 to be fixed, so that the radar antenna body 7 rotates around the vertical axis and adjusts the direction of the radar antenna body 7.
[0031] In this embodiment, when the radar antenna body 7 is stationary, it is positioned at an initially set direction and elevation angle. At this time, both the first control gear 14 and the second control gear 15 are fixed, and the elevation angle adjustment component and the direction adjustment component do not move relative to each other, keeping the radar antenna body 7 stable. When the elevation angle of the radar antenna body 7 needs to be adjusted, the control component begins to operate. The control component issues a command to drive the first control gear 14 to rotate, while simultaneously fixing the second control gear 15 to prevent its rotation. The rotation of the first control gear 14 causes the elevation angle adjustment component to move. The elevation angle adjustment component controls the radar antenna body to rotate around its transverse axis. As the first control gear 14 continues to rotate, the elevation angle of the radar antenna body 7 gradually changes until the desired elevation angle is reached. During the adjustment process, the control component monitors the rotation angle and speed of the first control gear 14 in real time and performs precise control according to the preset elevation angle target value, ensuring that the radar antenna body 7 accurately reaches the designated position. When the direction of the radar antenna body 7 needs to be adjusted, the control component issues another command, this time driving the second control gear 15 to rotate while simultaneously fixing the first control gear 14. The second control gear 15 is connected to the direction adjustment assembly, and its rotation drives the direction adjustment assembly to move. The direction adjustment assembly controls the radar antenna body 7 to rotate around its vertical axis. As the second control gear 15 rotates, the direction of the radar antenna body 7 gradually changes until the desired directional angle is reached. Similarly, the control assembly monitors the rotation of the second control gear 15 in real time and makes precise adjustments based on the preset directional target value to ensure the accuracy of the radar antenna body 7's direction. This adjustment method allows the radar antenna body 7 to maintain a relatively stable motion state during adjustment, reducing swaying and vibration caused by improper adjustment, thereby improving the stability of the entire system. Stable operation helps reduce signal interference and errors, improves radar measurement accuracy and reliability, and extends the equipment's service life. Furthermore, integrating the elevation angle adjustment assembly and the direction adjustment assembly together, through reasonable design and layout, achieves a compact and integrated structure. This integrated design reduces the size and weight of the equipment, saves installation space, and facilitates installation and transportation. At the same time, the compact structure also helps improve the overall stability and reliability of the equipment, reduces potential failure points due to component dispersion, and lowers maintenance costs.
[0032] This embodiment achieves independent and precise adjustment of the elevation angle and direction of the radar antenna body 7 by setting a first control gear 14 and a second control gear 15, and cooperating control components. Adjusting the elevation angle does not affect the direction of the radar body; adjusting the direction does not interfere with the elevation angle setting. This independent adjustment mechanism avoids the angle interference problems that may occur in traditional adjustment methods, greatly improving the accuracy and flexibility of adjustment. In some application scenarios with extremely high requirements for radar pointing accuracy, such as satellite communication and radar detection, the radar antenna body 7 can be precisely adjusted to the required elevation angle and direction to ensure accurate signal reception and transmission, improving system performance and reliability. When different application scenarios have different requirements for the elevation angle and direction of the radar antenna body 7, this adjustable integrated antenna can be quickly and accurately adjusted according to actual needs. In meteorological observation, it may be necessary to adjust the elevation angle of the radar antenna body 7 according to the height and distribution of clouds to obtain more accurate meteorological data.
[0033] It is understandable that one of the first control gear 14 and the second control gear 15 can be controlled to rotate while the other remains locked in a fixed state in various ways. This embodiment provides the following solution:
[0034] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the control assembly includes an adjustment frame 5 horizontally disposed below the radar antenna body 7, and a control component slidably disposed on the adjustment frame 5 along the axis parallel to the first control gear 14. The control component controls the first control gear 14 or the second control gear 15 to rotate. The adjustment frame 5 is sleeved on the first control gear 14 and the second control gear 15, and the adjustment frame 5 is rotatably connected to the ends of the first control gear 14 and the second control gear 15. The first control gear 14 and the second control gear 15 are coaxially disposed.
[0035] In this embodiment, the adjustment frame 5 is horizontally positioned below the radar antenna body 7 and is fitted onto the first control gear 14 and the second control gear 15. It is rotatably connected to the ends of the two control gears, forming a relatively closed and stable frame structure. This structure provides solid support for the entire adjustment mechanism, ensuring that the radar antenna body 7 and its components remain relatively fixed during adjustment, reducing swaying and displacement caused by vibration or external forces, thereby improving the overall operational stability of the antenna. The first control gear 14 and the second control gear 15 are coaxially arranged and connected and positioned by the adjustment frame 5, making the relative positional relationship between the two gears more precise and stable. During rotation, the coaxial arrangement ensures that the rotation axes of the two gears are aligned, avoiding additional stress and wear caused by axis deviation, extending the service life of the gears, and improving the smoothness and reliability of the transmission.
[0036] The control element controls either the first control gear 14 or the second control gear 15 to rotate. This embodiment provides the following solution:
[0037] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the control components include a movable rod 18 slidably mounted on the adjustment frame 5 via a control structure, fixed gears 19 positioned at both ends of the movable rod 18 and capable of meshing with a first control gear 14 or a second control gear 15, and a drive gear 20 positioned between the movable rods 18 and driven by a drive motor 22. The distance between the two fixed gears 19 is greater than the distance between the opposite ends of the first control gear 14 and the second control gear 15, and the lengths of both the first control gear 14 and the second control gear 15 are less than the distance between the fixed gear 19 and the drive gear 20.
[0038] In this embodiment, the moving rod is initially positioned on the adjustment frame 5 via a control structure. At this time, the drive gear 20 meshes with either the first control gear 14 or the second control gear 15. Meanwhile, the fixed gear 19, away from the first control gear 14 or the second control gear 15 meshing with the drive gear 20, meshes with another control gear, thus fixing the position of the other control gear. The radar antenna body 7 remains stable at the preset direction and elevation angle. When adjusting the direction of the radar antenna body 7, the control structure drives the moving rod 18 to slide along the axis parallel to the first control gear 14 on the adjustment frame 5, causing the fixed gear 19 at one end of the moving rod 18 to mesh with the first control gear 14. At this time, the drive gear 20 meshes with the second control gear 15, while the other fixed gear 19 does not mesh with the second control gear 15. The drive motor 22 is then activated, causing the drive gear 20 to rotate. The rotation of the drive gear 20 causes the meshed second control gear 15 to rotate, which in turn drives the direction adjustment assembly to rotate the radar antenna body 7, thus achieving elevation angle adjustment. During the adjustment process, the adjustment speed and direction of the radar antenna body 7 can be precisely controlled by controlling the speed and direction of the drive motor 22 until the desired direction is reached. Then, the drive motor 22 is stopped to maintain the direction of the radar antenna body 7. When adjusting the direction of the radar antenna body 7, the fixed gear 19, which is located on the moving rod 18 and meshes with the first control gear 14, moves away from the first control gear 14 and the second control gear 15. When the fixed gear 19 leaves the first control gear 14, the drive gear 20 moves from the second control gear 15 to the first control gear 14 and meshes with it. At the same time, the other fixed gear 19 meshes with the second control gear 15, fixing the position of the second control gear 15. The drive motor 22 is then restarted, driving the drive gear 20 to rotate, which in turn drives the first control gear 14 to rotate. The rotation of the first control gear 14 causes the radar antenna body 7 to rotate around the transverse axis through the elevation angle adjustment component, thereby adjusting the elevation angle of the radar antenna body 7. Similarly, the speed and direction of the drive motor 22 are controlled according to actual needs to precisely adjust the elevation angle of the radar antenna body 7. After reaching the target direction, the drive motor 22 is stopped, and the position of the moving rod 18 is kept unchanged to maintain the elevation angle of the radar antenna body 7.
[0039] In this embodiment, two fixed gears 19 are respectively disposed at both ends of the movable rod 18. By sliding the movable rod 18, different fixed gears 19 can mesh with the first control gear 14 or the second control gear 15, thereby achieving independent fixing of the pitch angle and direction respectively. This, combined with the drive gear 20, drives the first control gear 14 or the second control gear 15 to rotate. When adjusting the pitch angle, the direction adjustment component and the second control gear 15 are not affected; when adjusting the direction, the pitch angle adjustment component and the first control gear 14 are not interfered with, avoiding mutual interference during the adjustment process. The drive motor 22 can precisely control the speed and direction of rotation, accurately transmitting power to the control gears through gear transmission, thereby precisely controlling the rotation angle of the radar antenna body 7. Simultaneously, the sliding position of the movable rod 18 can be precisely controlled by the control structure, ensuring accurate meshing of the fixed gears 19 and the control gears, improving the adjustment accuracy.
[0040] It is understood that the movement of the control lever 18 along the length direction parallel to the first control gear 14 can be achieved in various ways. This embodiment provides the following solution:
[0041] like Figure 5 As shown, the control structure includes a movable lead screw 24 that passes through a movable slot 23 in the frame of the adjusting frame 5 along the axial direction of the first control gear 14, and a movable block that is threadedly connected to the body of the movable lead screw 24. The movable block is connected to the middle part of the body of the movable rod 18, and the movable lead screw 24 is driven by a motor.
[0042] In this embodiment, the moving screw 24 is driven by a motor to rotate, which can accurately drive the moving block to move stably on the moving screw 24, thereby facilitating the movement of the moving rod 18 along the axial direction of the first control gear 14.
[0043] Example 2: In view of the fact that Example 1 above only allows locking and fixing of the first control gear 14 and the second control gear 15, this example provides the following solution.
[0044] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the control unit also includes a distance adjustment structure for controlling the distance between the two fixed gears 19. The distance adjustment structure includes two telescopic rods 25 with one end perpendicularly connected to the opposite surfaces of the two fixed gears 19, a distance adjustment block 29 located in the middle between the two fixed gears 19, two adjacent rods 30 with one end rotatably connected to the two ends of the distance adjustment block 29 and the other end rotatably connected to different fixed gears 19, and a distance adjustment module for controlling the distance between the distance adjustment block 29 and the moving rod 18. The two telescopic rods 25 are slidably inserted into the ends of the moving rod 18 at their respective close ends.
[0045] In this embodiment, after the elevation angle and direction of the radar antenna body 7 are adjusted, the moving rod 18 is moved to the middle position on one side of the first control gear 14 and the second control gear 15 by the moving screw 24. At this time, the distance between the adjusting block 29 and the moving rod 18 is controlled by the adjusting module. Then, under the pulling action of the two adjusting rods 30, the two telescopic rods 25 are driven to pass through the end of the moving rod 18, which drives the two fixed gears 19 to move closer to each other. Thus, the two fixed gears 19 are simultaneously engaged with the first control gear 14 and the second control gear 15, which facilitates the stable fixing of the elevation angle and direction of the radar antenna body 7.
[0046] It is understandable that the distance between the adjusting block 29 and the moving rod 18 can be adjusted in various ways. This embodiment provides the following solution:
[0047] like Figure 6 As shown, the pitch adjustment module includes a pitch adjustment screw 28 arranged along the length of the vertical moving rod 18, a pitch adjustment motor 27 arranged on the pitch adjustment screw 28 and controlling the rotation of the pitch adjustment screw 28, and a slider that slides through the adjustment frame 5 in a linkage groove 26 opened along the length of the parallel moving rod 18. The slider is connected to the pitch adjustment motor 27, and the pitch adjustment screw 28 is threaded through the pitch adjustment block 29.
[0048] In this embodiment, the adjusting motor 27 drives the adjusting screw 28 to rotate, which facilitates the movement of the adjusting block 29 on the adjusting screw 28. This allows the distance between the two fixed gears 19 to be adjusted under the action of the two adjusting rods 30. The adjusting motor 27 slides through the linkage groove 26 via a slider, which ensures that the adjusting motor 27 moves synchronously when the moving screw 24 drives the moving rod 18 to slide.
[0049] It is understandable that the elevation angle of the radar antenna body 7 can be adjusted in various ways. This embodiment provides the following solution:
[0050] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the pitch angle adjustment assembly includes a rotating column 6 mounted on the radar antenna body 7, a rotating block 11 whose top end is rotatably connected to the rotating column 6 and whose bottom end is mounted on the adjustment frame 5, a transmission gear 13 rotatably mounted on the rotating block 11 and located above and meshing with the first control gear 14, and a driven gear 12 rotatably mounted on the rotating block 11 and whose end is connected to the rotating column 6, wherein the driven gear 12 meshes with the transmission gear 13.
[0051] In this embodiment, when the drive gear 20 meshes with the first control gear 14, the drive motor 22 controls the drive gear 20 to rotate, which facilitates the rotation of the driven gear 12 through the transmission gear 13, thereby driving the rotating column 6 set on the radar antenna body 7 to rotate, thus facilitating the adjustment of the elevation angle of the radar antenna body 7.
[0052] It is understandable that the direction of the radar antenna body 7 can be adjusted in various ways. This embodiment provides the following solution:
[0053] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the direction adjustment assembly includes a second linkage gear 21 fixedly mounted on the end of the second control gear 15 away from the first control gear 14; a first linkage gear 17 horizontally positioned below the second linkage gear 21 and connected to it; a rotating gear 9 parallel to the first linkage gear 17 below it; a connecting rod 4 vertically positioned between the first linkage gear 17 and the rotating gear 9; and a fixed gear ring 2 horizontally positioned and sleeved on the rotating gear 9, meshing with the rotating gear 9. A base 1 is fixedly mounted on the bottom end face of the fixed gear ring 2, and a rotating disk 10 is rotatably mounted on the top end face of the base 1 inside the fixed gear ring 2. A support rod 3, with both ends connecting the rotating disk 10 and the adjustment frame 5, is vertically mounted on the top of the rotating disk 10.
[0054] In this embodiment, when the drive gear 20 meshes with the second control gear 15, the drive motor 22 controls the drive gear 20 to rotate, thereby driving the second control gear 15 to rotate. This drives the second linkage gear 21, which is located at the end of the second control gear 15, to rotate. The second linkage gear 21 meshes with the first linkage gear 17, thereby driving the first linkage gear 17 and the rotating gear 9 to rotate. When the rotating gear 9 meshes with the fixed gear ring 2, it drives the radar antenna body 7 to rotate around the support rod 3 axially, which facilitates the adjustment of the direction of the radar antenna body 7.
[0055] like Figure 4 As shown, a limiting block 16 is provided between the first control gear 14 and the second control gear 15 for rotational connection, and the limiting block 16 is installed in the adjusting frame 5; a limiting rod 8 is provided on the side of the support rod 3, one end of which is rotatably sleeved on the connecting rod 4.
[0056] The adjustment mechanism also includes a horizontal calibration device disposed on the radar antenna body 7. The horizontal calibration device is electrically connected to the control component. When the horizontal calibration device detects that the radar antenna body 7 is not horizontal, it sends a signal to the control component. The control component controls the first control gear 14 and / or the second control gear 15 to rotate according to the signal, thereby adjusting the radar antenna body 7 to a horizontal state.
[0057] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
