Thus, the features defined with "first", "second", etc. can explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present application, the meaning of "a plurality of" is two or more, unless otherwise explicitly and specifically limited.
[0048] The antenna support is mainly used for installing and supporting the antenna. For example, the current Starlink satellite receiving antenna needs to be installed on the corresponding antenna support. The application scenarios of the antenna support are very diverse, but the installation position of the existing antenna support is limited, for example, it can only be installed on the flat position of the surface of a vehicle, a ship or a building, and it cannot be installed on the concave arc inner surface, which greatly limits the installation position of the antenna support.
[0049] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The antenna support provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described. The antenna support comprises:
[0050] A support body 10 is provided with an antenna installation position;
[0051] A plurality of fixed legs 3 are connected to the support body 10, and at least one fixed leg 3 is configured to adjust the angle thereof relative to the support body 10 to adjust the relative angle between the plurality of fixed legs 3.
[0052] The support body 10 is the main structure of the antenna support, and the support body 10 is provided with a special antenna installation position for installing and fixing the antenna 5. The design of the support body 10 needs to consider the weight, size and installation requirements of the antenna 5 to ensure that the antenna 5 can be stably and firmly installed on the support. Different antenna installation positions can be designed for different antennas 5. For example, a square installation position matched with the Starlink satellite antenna 5 can be provided. The antenna can be fixed on the antenna installation position by clamping, clamping, screw connection and other ways.
[0053] The fixed leg 3 is a key component for connecting the support body 10 and the surface of an object such as the top of a vehicle or the deck of a ship. Through the setting of a plurality of fixed legs 3, the stability and reliability of the antenna support on the installation surface can be ensured. The number and layout of the fixed legs 3 need to be reasonably designed according to the shape and size of the installation surface 8 to achieve the best fixing effect.
[0054] In this embodiment, the angle between at least one fixed leg 3 and the frame 10 is adjustable. Specifically, this can be one fixed leg 3, multiple fixed legs 3, or even all fixed legs 3. Adjustable angles between all fixed legs 3 and the frame 10 provide the best effect and meet the most diverse needs. When the angle between a fixed leg 3 and the frame 10 changes due to adjustment, its relative angle with other fixed legs 3 will naturally change. Therefore, by adjusting the angle between the fixed legs 3 and the frame 10, the relative angles between multiple fixed legs 3 can be adjusted. With adjustable relative angles between multiple fixed legs 3, the angles of the fixed legs 3 can be adjusted according to the desired installation location of the antenna bracket, allowing the antenna bracket to adapt to more installation positions and meet the installation requirements of various scenarios.
[0055] For example Figure 1 As shown, for common mounting surfaces 8 that are flat, the angles of all fixed legs can be adjusted to be parallel to achieve flat mounting. For external mounting surfaces 8 of the antenna bracket, which are typically convex, at least some of the fixed legs 3 can be flipped inwards so that the relative angles between the multiple fixed legs 3 are consistent with the convex surface, thus achieving external mounting of the antenna bracket. Both of the aforementioned situations are common mounting positions, and for example... Figure 4 As shown, the mounting surface 8 of the built-in position of the antenna bracket is usually a concave arc surface. At least part of the fixed legs 3 are flipped outward so that the relative angle between the multiple fixed legs 3 is consistent with the concave arc surface, thereby realizing the built-in installation of the antenna bracket.
[0056] In this way, the antenna bracket of this embodiment can adjust the angle of the fixed legs 3 according to different mounting surfaces 8, so that the relative angle between each fixed leg 3 is consistent with the angle of the mounting surface required by the antenna bracket, thereby enabling each fixed leg to be well fixed and ensuring the stability of the antenna bracket. In summary, the antenna bracket of this embodiment can achieve fixation on more mounting surfaces 8 by adjusting the relative angle between multiple fixed legs 3, thereby meeting the installation needs of more scenarios.
[0057] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the fixed feet include suction cups with adsorption surfaces, and the relative angles between the multiple fixed feet are adjusted to adjust the angles between the adsorption surfaces of the multiple fixed feet.
[0058] The fixing leg 3 is mostly in a suction cup structure, and other fixing modes such as gluing and bolt connection can also be used in the case of long-term fixing. In the embodiment, the fixing leg is a suction cup, which has a suction surface. Its working principle is to form a negative pressure cavity between the suction surface and the surface of the object, so as to fix the first fixing leg on the surface of the object. The suction cup is more convenient than other fixing modes, and it is not easy to damage the mounting surface 8 of the antenna support, and it is very suitable for fixing on smooth surfaces such as vehicles, ships and glass. The suction cup is connected to the smooth surface through its suction surface, and it needs to ensure that the suction surface is opposite to the mounting surface 8 to realize stable installation. The relative angles between the plurality of fixing legs in the embodiment can be adjusted, so that the angles between the suction surfaces of the plurality of fixing legs are adjusted, and then the fixing support can be adapted to more shapes of the mounting surface 8, thereby expanding the application scenarios of the antenna support.
[0059] As shown in Figure 6 some embodiments of the present application, at least one fixing leg 3 is connected to the frame 10 through an adjustable connecting piece, so that the angle between the fixing leg 3 and the frame 10 is adjustable. The adjustable connecting piece 4 includes a first connecting piece 41 and a second connecting piece 42. The fixing leg 3 is hinged to the first connecting piece 41 through a first rotating shaft 43. The first connecting piece 41 is hinged to the second connecting piece 42 through a second rotating shaft 44. The second connecting piece 42 can rotate relative to the frame 10 about a first axis 45. The axis of the first rotating shaft 43 is perpendicular to the axis of the second rotating shaft 44, and the axis of the second rotating shaft 44 is perpendicular to the first axis 45.
[0060] The adjustable connecting piece 4 is used to adjust the relative angle between the frame 10 and the fixing leg 3. In the embodiment, the adjustable connecting piece 4 includes a first connecting piece 41 and a second connecting piece 42. The fixing leg 3 is hinged to the first connecting piece 41 through a first rotating shaft 43, which means that the fixing leg 3 can rotate relative to the first connecting piece 41 about the axis of the first rotating shaft 43. The first connecting piece 41 is hinged to the second connecting piece 42 through a second rotating shaft 44, which allows the first connecting piece 41 and the fixing leg connected thereto to rotate relative to the second connecting piece 42 about the axis of the second rotating shaft 44. The second connecting piece 42 can rotate relative to the frame 10 about a first axis 45, which means that the fixing leg connected to the adjustable connecting piece 4 can also rotate relative to the frame 10 about the first axis 45. The axis of the first rotating shaft 43 is perpendicular to the axis of the second rotating shaft 44, and the axis of the second rotating shaft 44 is perpendicular to the first axis 45, which can ensure that the fixing leg 3 can be adjusted in multiple dimensions relative to the frame 10. In particular, the second connecting piece 42 can rotate relative to the frame 10 about the first axis 45, which can make the antenna installed on the antenna support of the embodiment face the mounting surface. For example Figure 5As shown, the antenna support is mounted on the inner side of the sunroof of the vehicle by adjusting the relative rotation between the fixed leg and the frame body 10, at this time the antenna on the antenna support is towards the sunroof of the vehicle, that is, towards the outside of the vehicle, which can better receive signals from the outside of the vehicle.
[0061] The more degrees of freedom of angle adjustment of the fixed leg relative to the frame body, the more installation surfaces it can adapt to. For example, if the adjustable connecting piece 4 uses a common hinged shaft, the fixed leg 3 can only be adjusted in one direction relative to the frame body 10, and the types of installation surfaces that the antenna support can adapt to are relatively few. The embodiment has multiple degrees of freedom, which can enable the multiple fixed legs 3 of the antenna support to be fixed on an arc surface or even a free-form surface, and in addition, the antenna can be directed towards the installation surface by rotating the fixed leg, thereby adapting to the installation of positions such as vehicle windows and building curtain walls.
[0062] In addition, in some embodiments, the adjustable connecting piece 4 uses a ball joint shaft, which has a first connecting end and a second connecting end that can be adjusted relative to each other, the first connecting end is connected to the frame body, and the second connecting end is connected to the fixed leg. The ball joint shaft achieves the relative rotation of the first connecting end and the second connecting end through the relative rotation of the ball head structure and the sleeve covering the ball head structure, and can also achieve the function of adjusting the angle between the fixed leg 3 and the frame body 10, but the adjustable range and diversity are lower than those of the adjustable connecting piece 4 of the previous embodiment. The ball joint shaft can specifically use a single ball joint shaft or a double ball joint shaft, the single ball joint shaft has only one ball joint, and the double ball joint shaft has two ball joints, which has higher adjustment freedom.
[0063] The number of fixed legs 3 is set according to the fixed requirements, which is at least two, three, four, five or even more, and more fixed legs 3 can be provided for a larger antenna support. Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the frame body is a square structure, and the number of fixed legs 3 is four, four fixed legs 3 are respectively arranged on the four corners of the frame body 10, and the angles between the four fixed legs 3 and the frame body 10 are adjustable. For common satellite antennas 5, such as Starlink satellite antennas 5, the frame body 10 can use a square structure, and as for the number of fixed legs 3, four fixed legs 3 can be arranged on the four corners of the frame body 10, so that the angles between the four fixed legs 3 and the frame body 10 are adjustable, that is, each fixed leg 3 can be adjusted relative to the other three fixed legs 3, which meets the installation requirements of various use scenarios.
[0064] As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the frame body is a square structure, and the number of fixed legs 3 is four, four fixed legs 3 are respectively arranged on the four corners of the frame body 10, and the angles between the four fixed legs 3 and the frame body 10 are adjustable. For common satellite antennas 5, such as Starlink satellite antennas 5, the frame body 10 can use a square structure, and as for the number of fixed legs 3, four fixed legs 3 can be arranged on the four corners of the frame body 10, so that the angles between the four fixed legs 3 and the frame body 10 are adjustable, that is, each fixed leg 3 can be adjusted relative to the other three fixed legs 3, which meets the installation requirements of various use scenarios. Figures 1 to 3As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the frame 10 includes a first frame 1 and a second frame 2, a fixed support 3 is connected to the first frame 1, and an antenna mounting position is set on the second frame 2; the second frame 2 is hinged to the first frame 1 so that the relative angle between the second frame 2 and the first frame 1 is adjustable.
[0065] During the use of antenna 5, its orientation can be adjusted to better receive signals. In this embodiment, the frame 10 includes a first frame 1 and a second frame 2. The first frame 1 serves as the main structure of the frame 10, and the fixed support legs 3 are connected to the first frame 1, providing stable support for the entire frame 10. The second frame 2 is provided with an antenna mounting position, that is, antenna 5 is mounted on the second frame 2. The second frame 2 is connected to the first frame 1 by a hinge, allowing the second frame 2 to rotate relative to the first frame 1, thereby adjusting the relative angle between the two. The angle of the first frame 1 is determined by the installation position of the antenna bracket, which is difficult to adjust, while the second frame 2 can be angled relative to the first frame 1, thus allowing antenna 5 to be angled relative to the first frame 1, thereby ensuring that antenna 5 always maintains the optimal signal reception angle in different installation environments.
[0066] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the frame 10 further includes a connecting rod 6 and a first locking member 7. A sliding groove 11 is provided on the first frame 1. The connecting rod 6 has a first end 61 and a second end 62. The first end 61 is hinged to the second frame 2, and the hinge point of the first end 61 and the second frame 2 is spaced apart by a certain distance from the hinge point of the second frame 2 and the first frame 1. The second end 62 is disposed in the sliding groove 11 and can slide relative to the sliding groove 11. The first locking member 7 is disposed on the second end 62 and is used to lock the relative sliding position of the second end 62 and the sliding groove 11.
[0067] After the antenna 5 is angled, it needs to be fixed at the adjusted angle to ensure its stability. Therefore, a first locking element 7 can be provided between the first frame 1 and the second frame 2 to lock their relative angle. Alternatively, a relative rotational damping force can be provided between the first frame 1 and the second frame 2, meaning the first frame 1 and the second frame 2 are connected by a damping shaft, allowing the second frame 2 to be stably positioned after adjustment. In this embodiment, the first end 61 of the connecting rod 6 is hinged to the second frame 2, which supports the second frame 2 and maintains its relative angle with the second frame 2. A sliding groove 11 is provided on the first frame 1, providing a sliding track for the second end 62 of the connecting rod 6, allowing it to slide within the groove 11. When the groove 11 is on the side of the connecting rod, a connecting shaft can be provided at the second end 62 of the connecting rod 6 to allow the second end 62 to slide along the groove 11, and the connecting shaft can slide within the groove 11.
[0068] When the second end 62 of the connecting rod 6 slides in the sliding groove 11, the relative angle between the second frame 2 and the first frame 1 can be adjusted, and the antenna 5 is arranged on the second frame 2, so the angle of the antenna 5 can be adjusted. When the angle of the antenna 5 is adjusted to the position, the first locking member 7 can be used to lock the position of the second end 62 of the connecting rod 6 in the sliding groove 11, so that the locking of the second frame 2 and the antenna 5 in the current position can be achieved.
[0069] In addition, the adjustable angle range of the antenna 5 can also be adjusted by changing the length of the sliding groove 11. The greater the length of the sliding groove 11, the greater the adjustable angle range of the antenna 5, for example, Figure 1 In the antenna support of the embodiment, the antenna 5 can be adjusted from 0° to 45°, which can meet the needs of most antennas 5.
[0070] The number of the connecting rod 6 can be one, two or even more. In order to balance the support on both sides of the second frame 2, in the embodiment as shown in Figure 2 The connecting rod 6 is arranged on both sides of the second frame 2, and the sliding groove 11 and the first locking member 7 are correspondingly arranged on both sides of the first frame 1.
[0071] As shown in Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 In some embodiments of the present application, the first locking member 7 includes a hand screw, the hand screw is arranged in the sliding groove 11 and is threadedly connected to the second end 62. In the embodiment, the first locking member 7 includes a hand screw, the hand screw is threadedly connected to the second end 62 of the connecting rod 6 through the sliding groove 11. When the hand screw is tightened, the second end 62 of the connecting rod 6 and the hand screw hand part are close to each other, clamping the first frame 1, so as to limit the sliding of the second end 62 of the connecting rod 6 in the sliding groove 11, achieving the locking effect. When it is needed to adjust the angle of the antenna 5, only the hand screw needs to be loosened. The hand screw has a hand part which is convenient to hold, and can be directly rotated by hand without the aid of tools, so as to facilitate the use and adjustment of the antenna support. In actual application, the first locking member 7 is used to lock the position of the second end 62 of the connecting rod 6 in the sliding groove 11, and other ways such as a bolt and a clamping member can also be used.
[0072] As shown in Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, one or more recesses 111 are provided in the sliding groove 11 for positioning the second end 62 of the connecting rod 6. The recesses 111 provide a clear positioning point for the second end 62 of the connecting rod 6. When the second end 62 of the connecting rod 6 is placed in the recess 111, the position of the connecting rod 6 in the sliding groove 11 can be ensured to be accurate and stable. The number and position of the recesses 111 can be determined according to requirements, and generally, the recesses 111 can be provided at positions corresponding to commonly used angles of the antenna 5. For example, the recesses 111 can be provided at positions corresponding to the second end 62 of the connecting rod 6 when the second frame 2 is at 25° and 45°, respectively. As shown in Figure 9 When it is required to adjust the antenna 5 to 25°, the second end 62 of the connecting rod 6 can be directly adjusted into the recess 111 corresponding to 25°, so as to quickly adjust the second frame 2 and the antenna to 25°, as shown in Figure 8 When it is required to adjust the antenna 5 to 45°, the second end 62 of the connecting rod 6 can be directly adjusted into the recess 111 corresponding to 45°, so as to quickly adjust the second frame 2 and the antenna to 45°. Because the antenna support of the present embodiment is installed on the top surface, side surface or bottom surface of an object, the second end 62 of the connecting rod 6 can abut against the upper side or lower side of the sliding groove 11 due to the action of gravity at different installation positions. Therefore, the recesses 111 can be provided on both the upper side and lower side of the sliding groove 11, so that the second end 62 of the connecting rod 6 can fall into the recess 111 regardless of the installation of the antenna support, so as to facilitate the positioning thereof.
[0073] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present application, the first frame 1 has an internal space capable of accommodating the second frame 2, the second frame 2 is arranged in the internal space, and the second frame 2 can be adjusted to a first state and a second state relative to the first frame 1.
[0074] In the first state, the second frame 2 is placed in parallel in the first frame 1.
[0075] In the second state, the second frame 2 is inclined relative to the first frame 1.
[0076] In the embodiment, the first frame 1 has an inner space to accommodate the second frame 2, and the second frame 2 is arranged in the inner space of the first frame 1. The hinge positions of the first frame 1 and the second frame 2 can be arranged on both sides of the first frame 1 and the second frame 2, so as to ensure the balance of the force on both sides of the second frame 2. The first frame 1 has a relatively larger volume, can provide more stable support, and can provide a protection effect for the second frame 2. In the embodiment, the second frame 2 can be adjusted to at least a first state and a second state relative to the first frame 1. In the first state, the second frame 2 is arranged in parallel in the first frame 1, that is, the second frame 2 is parallel to the first frame 1 and arranged in the first frame 1, and the relative angle between the two can be considered as 0°. In the second state, the second frame 2 is inclined relative to the first frame 1, and the relative angle between the two is greater than 0°, for example, can be 10°, 20°, 30°, etc. At this time, the second frame 2 at least partially protrudes from the first frame 1. Generally, when the antenna support is not used, the second frame 2 can be placed in the first state, so as to facilitate the storage and transportation of the antenna support. When the antenna support is used, the second frame 2 can be adjusted to the second state according to the required receiving angle of the antenna 5. Of course, when the required receiving angle of the antenna 5 is exactly 0°, the second frame 2 can also be adjusted to the first state.
[0077] In addition, the second frame 2 can also be connected to the outside of the first frame 1, or can be arranged on the first frame 1 in an overlapping manner. However, compared with these manners, the second frame 2 is arranged in the inner side of the first frame 1, and the first frame 1 can provide protection for the second frame 2, so as to protect the antenna arranged on the second frame 2.
[0078] As shown in Figures 10 to 12 In some embodiments of the present application, the antenna support includes a second locking member configured to lock the relative rotation position of the second frame and the first frame in the first state.
[0079] As mentioned above, when the antenna support is not used, the second frame 2 can be placed in the first state, so as to facilitate the storage and transportation of the antenna support. In order to prevent the second frame 2 and the first frame 1 from shaking in the first state, the antenna support of the embodiment is provided with a second locking member, which can lock the relative position of the second frame 2 and the first frame 1 in the first state, so as to prevent the antenna from shaking in the first state. In addition to the storage and transportation of the antenna support, the position of the antenna support adjusted to the first state during use can also be locked by the second locking member.
[0080] As shown in Figure 11 and Figure 12As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the second locking member includes a concave structure 23 and a flexible protrusion 12. One of the concave structure 23 and the flexible protrusion 12 is disposed on the first frame 1, and the other is disposed on the second frame 2. In the first state, the flexible protrusion 12 is embedded in the concave structure 23. The first frame 1 and the second frame 2 are respectively provided with the concave structure 23 and the flexible protrusion 12. During the process of switching the antenna support from the second state to the first state, the flexible protrusion 12 will be compressed first. When the flexible protrusion 12 is facing the concave structure 23, it can be embedded in the concave structure 23, thereby preventing the two frames and the first frame 1 from shaking and enhancing stability. When it is necessary to switch the antenna support from the first state to the second state, simply rotate the second frame 2 with force, and the flexible protrusion 12 will be compressed and disengaged from the concave structure 23, thereby releasing the lock between the first frame 1 and the second frame 2.
[0081] The flexible protrusion 12 can be made of materials such as rubber or silicone. It can be set in either the first frame 1 or the second frame 2. However, if the flexible protrusion 12 is set in the first frame 1, then a concave structure 23 needs to be set in the corresponding position in the second frame 2; conversely, if the flexible protrusion 12 is set in the second frame 2, then a concave structure 23 needs to be set in the corresponding position in the first frame 1. Since the second frame 2 is set inside the first frame 1, it is better to set the concave structure 23 on the second frame 2 and the flexible protrusion 12 on the first frame 1. This allows the flexible protrusion 12 to be hidden inside the first frame 1, preventing damage, while the concave structure 23 is not easily damaged when the second frame 2 is flipped up.
[0082] like Figure 13 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the second locking member includes a spring pin 13 and a plug portion 24, one of which is disposed on the first frame and the other is disposed on the second frame; in the first state, the spring pin 13 is plugged into the plug portion 24.
[0083] The spring pin 13 has a return spring, allowing it to extend under spring force without external force. To lock the second frame 2 and the first frame 1 in the first state, first pull the spring pin 13 outwards, then adjust the relative positions of the second frame 2 and the first frame 1 so that the spring pin 13 and the insertion part 24 are aligned. After releasing the spring pin 13, it can automatically and quickly insert into the insertion part 24, making it more convenient to use. The spring pin 13 also has a self-locking function. When the pin is inserted into the insertion part 24, the return spring force will press the pin against the insertion part 24, preventing the pin from falling off due to external interference, thus ensuring the safety and reliability of locking the first frame 1 and the second frame 2. The insertion part 24 is used to insert the spring pin 13; it can be a insertion hole or a recessed structure.
[0084] The spring pin 13 can be disposed on either the first frame 1 or the second frame 2. If the spring pin 13 is disposed on the first frame 1, the insertion part 24 can be disposed at a corresponding position on the second frame 2; if the spring pin 13 is disposed on the second frame 2, the insertion part 24 can be disposed at a corresponding position on the first frame 1. The embodiment in which the spring pin 13 is disposed on the first frame 1 is preferred because the first frame 1 typically has more space to arrange the spring pin 13, and it is also easier to operate with the spring pin 13 disposed on the first frame 1.
[0085] The two types of second locking components described above can be used individually or together. For example, locking can be achieved by using only the concave structure 23 in conjunction with the flexible protrusion 12; alternatively, both the concave structure 23 and the flexible protrusion 12 can be used for positioning, and the spring pin 13 can be used in conjunction with the insertion part 24 for locking. Relatively speaking, the locking effect of the concave structure 23 and the flexible protrusion 12 is poor, but it can achieve rapid positioning. Therefore, when the two types of second locking components are used together, the spring pin 13 can be pulled open first, and the second frame 2 can be rotated. When the second frame 2 rotates relative to the first frame 1 to the first state, the flexible protrusion 12 can automatically embed into the concave structure 23, thereby positioning the relative position of the second frame 2 and the first frame 1. At this time, the spring pin 13 can be released, allowing the spring pin 13 to insert into the insertion part 24, quickly achieving the locking of the second frame 2 and the first frame 1.
[0086] like Figure 14 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the second frame 2 has an internal space to accommodate the antenna 5 to form an antenna mounting position; the second frame 2 includes a main frame 21 and a frame side cover 22, the frame side cover 22 being detachably connected to the main frame 21 so that the antenna mounting position can be opened.
[0087] The second frame 2 is provided with an antenna mounting position, the specific shape of which is determined according to the corresponding antenna 5. In this embodiment, the second frame 2 has an internal space to accommodate the antenna 5, thereby forming the antenna mounting position. This type of antenna mounting position is suitable for most satellite antennas 5.
[0088] The second frame 2 in this embodiment includes a main frame 21 and a side cover 22. The main frame 21 and the side cover 22 are detachably connected. When the side cover 22 is removed, the antenna mounting position can be opened, and then the antenna 5 can be installed inside the frame of the main frame 21. The side cover 22 and the main frame 21 are then connected to complete the installation of the antenna 5. To facilitate antenna installation, a slot can be provided inside the frame of the main frame 21. During installation, the antenna can be slid into the main frame 21 through the slot, ensuring the stability of the antenna installation. The power and network cable interfaces of the antenna 5 are located on its back, and the second frame 2 does not affect their connection. Since the antenna 5 is located inside the space of the second frame 2, the second frame 2 can provide protection for the antenna 5, preventing damage to it.
[0089] The detachable connection between the main frame 21 and the frame side cover 22 can be achieved through various methods such as screw connection, snap-fit, and fastening. Figure 14 In the embodiment shown, the main frame 21 and the frame cover 22 are connected by screws on the side, which can ensure the neat appearance and stability of the frame of the second frame 2.
[0090] like Figure 15 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the second frame 2 is detachably connected to the first frame 1. As mentioned in previous embodiments, the second frame 2 can provide protection for the antenna 5, preventing damage to the antenna 5. In this embodiment, the second frame 2 is detachably connected to the first frame 1, meaning that the second frame 2 can be removed from the first frame 1 and used independently as a protective frame for the antenna 5, protecting the antenna 5 during transport and preventing bumps or damage.
[0091] like Figure 16 As shown, in some embodiments of this application, the fixed support 3 is detachably connected to the first frame 1, and the second frame 2 is provided with a connecting part for connecting the fixed support 3. In this way, the fixed support 3 can be removed from the first frame 1 and then installed on the second frame 2, so that the second frame 2 can act as an antenna support alone. This simple method can also be used for installation when there is no need to adjust the antenna angle.
[0092] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
