[0024] In related technologies, current communication equipment is becoming increasingly complex, and the internal structure design of communication equipment is also becoming more complex. If the radio frequency transmission index of the communication equipment is to be tested and verified, the casing needs to be removed before the circuit board can be installed with the radio frequency socket for radio frequency performance testing and verification. The casing disassembly process is cumbersome, consumes a lot of manpower and time, and is also prone to damaging the internal components of the communication equipment, seriously affecting the normal operation of the communication equipment.

[0025] The following is for reference. Figure 1 This invention describes a communication device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0026] The communication device 100 according to the present invention includes: a housing 11, a circuit board and a detection element. A receiving cavity is formed inside the housing 11, and a detection hole 101 communicating with the receiving cavity is provided on the housing 11. The circuit board is housed in the receiving cavity. The detection element is disposed on the circuit board and housed in the receiving cavity. The detection element is adapted to be connected to an external device through the detection hole 101 to detect the signal status of the circuit board.

[0027] In some specific embodiments, the communication device 100 consists of a housing 11, a circuit board, and a detection component. The housing 11 has a receiving cavity, in which the circuit board, detection component, and other precision components are respectively housed. The housing 11 provides a certain degree of protection for the circuit board and other precision components, shielding them from the influence of the external environment and ensuring their normal operation. The circuit board is provided with a detection component that can monitor the characteristics of radio signals, such as frequency, amplitude, and phase. The housing 11 is provided with a detection hole 101, through which the electrical connection wires on the detection component can be connected to external devices to reflect the signal quality on the circuit board and to diagnose faults in the circuit board. This eliminates the need to remove the housing 11, reducing the difficulty of circuit board signal detection and improving the efficiency of the testing and maintenance of the communication device 100.

[0028] The communication device 100 of this utility model houses the circuit board and the detection component in a cavity formed within the housing 11, thereby providing a certain degree of protection for the circuit board and the detection component. The detection component can monitor the characteristics of radio signals, such as frequency, amplitude, and phase. The housing 11 is provided with a detection hole 101, and the electrical connection wire on the detection component can be connected to an external device through the detection hole 101 to reflect the signal quality on the circuit board and to diagnose faults on the circuit board. This eliminates the need to remove the housing 11, reducing the difficulty of circuit board signal detection and improving the efficiency of testing and maintenance of the communication device 100.

[0029] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a plurality of holes are formed on the detection hole 101 extending radially from the center of the detection hole 101. The plurality of radially extending holes can provide more connection points, making the connection between external devices and internal detection components more flexible. By rationally arranging these radially extending holes, the signal transmission path can be shorter and more direct, which helps to reduce signal attenuation and interference and improve detection accuracy. If heat is generated during the detection process, the plurality of holes can also help improve air circulation and promote heat dissipation, thereby protecting the precision components inside the cavity from high temperature.

[0030] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the detection hole 101 includes a first hole portion 102 and a second hole portion 103. The first hole portion 102 and the second hole portion 103 are respectively disposed on the housing 11. The first hole portion 102 and the second hole portion 103 are orthogonal to each other (i.e., perpendicular to each other), which can provide access points in multiple directions, increasing the flexibility when connecting external devices. The first hole portion 102 and the second hole portion 103 are respectively constructed as elongated holes. The elongated holes have a larger adjustment range in the radial direction, which facilitates the insertion of probes, interfaces and other tools of different sizes or types. The position of probes or other detection tools can be adjusted within a certain range, thereby ensuring that they can be accurately aligned with the target signal interface, improving the detection accuracy. At the same time, since the elongated holes are relatively thin and narrow, dust is not easy to enter the cavity through the detection hole 101 during the detection process.

[0031] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the detection component is provided with multiple signal interfaces, and the detection holes 101 and the signal interfaces are configured to correspond one-to-one.

[0032] In some specific embodiments, a signal interface is formed on the detection component. The signal interface is constructed in multiple ways, and each signal interface has a corresponding detection hole 101. Through the detection hole 101 corresponding to each signal interface, wiring can be easily connected from the outside to the corresponding signal interface for signal status detection or data transmission. Since each signal interface has an independent detection hole 101, different test devices or tools can be connected individually as needed without disconnecting other connections. This allows multiple signals to be monitored or processed simultaneously, improving the detection efficiency of the communication device 100. When it is necessary to troubleshoot a specific signal path, the operation can be performed directly on that path without affecting the operation of other parts, thus improving the detection flexibility of the communication device 100.

[0033] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the communication device 100 further includes a cover plate 12, which is detachably disposed on the housing 11 and adapted to close the detection hole 101.

[0034] In some specific embodiments, the housing 11 is also provided with a removable cover plate 12. When the detection hole 101 is not in use, the cover plate 12 covers the detection hole 101 and closes the detection hole 101. The cover plate 12 can effectively prevent dust, moisture and other external contaminants from entering the housing 11, thereby protecting the circuit board and its sensitive electronic components from damage, ensuring the stability and reliability of the communication device 100 during operation, and extending the service life of the communication device 100. The cover plate 12 can also make the appearance of the communication device more neat and uniform, avoid the visual clutter caused by exposed interfaces, and improve the consistency of the appearance of the communication device 100.

[0035] Furthermore, since the cover plate 12 is detachable, it can be easily opened when maintaining, inspecting or connecting external test equipment to the communication equipment 100, and can be quickly restored to its original state after completion, which ensures the convenience of testing and connecting the communication equipment 100 without affecting the overall performance of the equipment.

[0036] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a first limiting part is formed on the cover plate 12, and a second limiting part is formed on the housing 11 to cooperate with the first limiting part, so as to restrict the movement of the cover plate 12 relative to the housing 11, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the connection between the cover plate 12 and the housing 11, ensuring that the cover plate 12 will not loosen or fall off when the communication device 100 is vibrated or subjected to external force, and improving the stability and reliability of the operation of the communication device 100.

[0037] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a first mating hole is formed on the cover plate 12, and a second mating hole is formed on the housing 11 that is directly opposite to the first mating hole; the communication device 100 further includes a fastener, which passes through the first mating hole and the second mating hole respectively to restrict the movement of the cover plate 12 relative to the housing 11.

[0038] In some specific embodiments, a first mating hole extending through the thickness direction is formed on the cover plate 12, and a second mating hole is formed on the housing 11. The first and second mating holes are aligned. Fasteners can effectively fix and position the cover plate 12 by passing through the first mating hole on the cover plate 12 and the second mating hole on the housing 11, ensuring the structural stability and integrity of the communication device 100. At the same time, by restricting the movement of the cover plate 12 relative to the housing 11 by fasteners, the displacement or detachment of the cover plate 12 caused by vibration or external force can be prevented, thereby protecting the precision components inside the communication device 100 from damage.

[0039] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a protrusion is formed on the cover plate 12, protruding from the surface of the cover plate 12. The protrusion is constructed as a first limiting part, and the detection hole 101 is constructed as a second limiting part. The shape of the protrusion can be consistent with that of the detection hole 101. The size of the detection hole 101 can be slightly larger than the size of the protrusion to facilitate the smooth insertion of the protrusion. The protrusion extends into the detection hole 101, and the outer peripheral wall of the protrusion abuts against the inner peripheral wall of the detection hole 101 to limit the movement of the cover plate 12 relative to the housing 11. This improves the stability and reliability of the connection between the cover plate 12 and the housing 11, ensuring that the cover plate 12 will not loosen or fall off when the communication device 100 vibrates or is subjected to external force, thereby protecting the precision components inside the communication device 100 from damage and improving the stability and reliability of the communication device 100 during operation.

[0040] In addition, the design structure of the protrusion and the detection hole 101 is relatively simple, and the assembly and disassembly are relatively easy, which improves the assembly efficiency of the cover plate 12 and the housing 11.

[0041] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the detection element can be constructed as a radio frequency (RF) detector. The communication device 100 has the ability to detect and analyze radio frequency signals. RF detectors are typically used to monitor the characteristics of radio signals, such as frequency, amplitude, and phase, and can be used for signal quality assessment, interference detection, and fault diagnosis. By continuously monitoring the quality of radio frequency signals, the RF detector can ensure the stability and reliability of the communication link. The RF detector can identify and locate external interference sources that may affect normal communication, helping testing personnel to take certain measures to mitigate or eliminate these interferences and improve the communication efficiency of the communication device 100. If communication problems occur, the RF detector can help quickly locate the problem. Whether it is an antenna failure, amplifier malfunction, or other hardware defects, the cause can be determined through detailed signal analysis, improving the smooth operation of the communication device 100.
