[0002] Portable weather radar antenna devices are essential equipment in meteorological observation and emergency response. These devices need to be rapidly transported to temporary field locations for deployment. To ensure the accuracy of radar signal acquisition and communication quality, the antenna must remain highly stable after installation, and its attitude must be precisely leveled.
[0003] Existing portable antenna devices, in pursuit of portability, often feature simple base support structures, such as traditional tripods or a few fixed-length support legs. While this simple structure is usable on flat indoor or standard ground surfaces, its limitations become apparent when deployed in complex outdoor terrain.
[0004] Especially when encountering sloping rocks, uneven concrete, or other man-made hard surfaces, these fixed support legs, lacking self-adjusting capabilities, struggle to ensure all support points are effectively in contact with the ground. This results in gaps or misalignments between the antenna's base and the ground, leading to instability. Under external interference such as wind, the antenna is prone to swaying or even tipping over, severely impacting the reliability of radar data and posing a risk of equipment damage.
[0005] Therefore, this utility model proposes a portable weather radar folding antenna device to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0028] Reference Figures 1-5This utility model provides an embodiment of a portable weather radar folding antenna device, including a first support rod 1, a support assembly 4 at the bottom of the first support rod 1, a first antenna plate 2 fixed at the top of the first support rod 1, second antenna plates 3 connected to both sides of the first antenna plate 2 via folding assemblies 5, a second support rod 6 fixed to the back of the second antenna plate 3, and a bubble level 7 fixed to one side of the first support rod 1. The support assembly 4 includes a fixing frame 401 surrounding the first support rod 1 and a transmission plate 402 rotatably connected to the fixing frame 401. The support assembly 4 also includes a fixing disk 407, which is fixed to the outer wall of the first support rod 1 and connected to the transmission plate 402. The support assembly 4 also includes a slider 403, which is slidably connected to the inside of the transmission plate 402. The support assembly 4 also includes a rubber support plate 406, which is connected to the bottom of the slider 403.
[0029] The transmission plate 402 of the support assembly 4 has a groove for sliding the slider 403. The slider 403 can slide up and down in the groove of the transmission plate 402. The side of the transmission plate 402 has a threaded hole that extends through the groove. The fixing bolt 404 is threaded through the threaded hole of the transmission plate 402 and extends into the inside of the slider 403. By tightening the fixing bolt 404, the slider 403 can be abutted and locked, thereby fixing the position of the slider 403 in the transmission plate 402.
[0030] At the same time, the bottom of the slider 403 is rotatably connected to the rubber support plate 406 through the first rotating bar 405, which ensures that when the slider 403 extends downward to contact the ground, the rubber support plate 406 can rotate around the first rotating bar 405, so that the bottom surface of the rubber support plate 406 can fully fit the inclined road surface at different angles, increase the contact area, and provide good support.
[0031] In addition, to adapt to soft ground such as soil, the support assembly 4 also includes a fixing cone 408 and a pedal 409. The fixing cone 408 is threaded onto the bottom end of the first support rod 1, and the pedal 409 is fixed to the bottom of the first support rod 1 and located above the fixing cone 408. Users can press the fixing cone 408 into the ground by stepping on the pedal 409 to achieve stable fixation of the antenna device on the soft ground.
[0032] It also includes a first antenna plate 2 fixed to the top of the first support rod 1, a second support rod 6 and a second antenna plate 3, the second antenna plate 3 being disposed on both sides of the first antenna plate 2, and the second support rod 6 being fixed to the back of the second antenna plate 3;
[0033] The portable weather radar folding antenna device also includes a folding assembly 5, which is used to connect the first antenna plate 2 and the second antenna plate 3. Specifically, the folding assembly 5 includes a hinge 501, which rotatably connects the first antenna plate 2 and the second antenna plate 3. The folding assembly 5 also includes a fixing shell 503, which is fixed to the first antenna plate 2 by a fixing plate 502. The folding assembly 5 also includes a locking block 507 slidably accommodated in the fixing shell 503, and a spring 508 sleeved on the outer surface of the locking block 507. The folding assembly 5 further includes a push plate 504 rotatably disposed on the top of the fixing shell 503. The push plate 504 is connected to the locking block 507 by an eccentrically disposed second rotating bar 505 and a connecting post 506. When the push plate 504 rotates, it is used to drive the locking block 507 to slide. The portable weather radar folding antenna device also includes a bubble level 7, which is fixed to one side of the first support rod 1.
[0034] Working principle: When using the antenna device, select the appropriate support mode according to different ground conditions;
[0035] When the antenna device needs to be installed on a soft surface such as soil, a fixing cone 408 can be threadedly installed at the bottom of the first support rod 1. The user steps on the pedal 409 at the bottom of the first support rod 1 to push the fixing cone 408 into the soil, so that the first support rod 1 forms good stability on the soil surface.
[0036] When the antenna device needs to be installed on a hard or uneven surface, first loosen the fixing bolt 404, push the slider 403 inside the transmission plate 402 to slide inside the transmission plate 402, so that the rubber support plate 406 at the bottom of the slider 403 is fully in contact with the ground. Since the rubber support plate 406 and the slider 403 are rotatably connected by the first rotating bar 405, it is ensured that the rubber support plate 406 can adapt to different road conditions and provide good support for the antenna device. Next, the fixing bolt 404 located on the side of the transmission plate 402 is inserted through the transmission plate 402 and extended into the inside of the slider 403. Tighten the fixing bolt 404 to fix the position of the slider 403.
[0037] During the folding process of the antenna device, the push plate 504 at the top of the folding assembly 5 rotates around the second rotating bar 505 inside. Since the second rotating bar 505 is located on one side of the center point of the push plate 504, the push plate 504, while rotating, will drive the locking block 507 at the bottom of the connecting column 506 below it to slide into the interior of the fixing shell 503 through the second rotating bar 505, until the locking block 507 moves out of the groove inside the second antenna plate 3 and the second support rod 6. While moving, the locking block 507 will drive the spring 508 on its outer side to compress. The fixing shell 503 located on the outer surface of the spring 508 is connected to the first antenna plate 2 and the first support rod 1 through the fixing plate 502 at its bottom. The connection between the walls is fixed to ensure that the position of the fixed shell 503 remains unchanged. At this time, the second antenna plate 3 is pushed to rotate towards the first antenna plate 2 and the first support rod 1 with its bottom hinge 501 as the center, so as to realize the folding of the antenna device, reduce the space occupied by the equipment, and facilitate subsequent storage and transportation. When the antenna device is in use, according to the same principle, the second antenna plate 3 and the second support rod 6 are unfolded to the outward side, so that the first antenna plate 2 and the second antenna plate 3 and the first support rod 1 and the second support rod 6 are kept on the same horizontal line. Then, the locking block 507 is engaged with the inner groove surface of the second antenna plate 3 and the second support rod 6 to fix the position of the second antenna plate 3 and the second support rod 6.
[0038] In addition, a bubble level 7 fixed to one side of the first support rod 1 is used to ensure that the device is in a horizontal and vertical state, so as to ensure the optimal working performance of the antenna device.
