Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of radio frequency signal switching technology, specifically a pre-positioned radio frequency signal switching device for an electric motor coaxial switching switch. Background Technology

[0002] A rapid switching system for radio frequency (RF) signals, including primary and backup transmitters, such as a communication base station system or a broadcast television transmission system, utilizes an RF signal switching device to achieve rapid switching between the primary and backup transmitter RF signals. Related technologies disclose several solutions for RF signal switching devices. For example, the solution disclosed in the authorized patent document with application number 201920364705.X ​​includes four RF U-coaxial connectors: RF U-coaxial connector one, RF U-coaxial connector two, RF U-coaxial connector three, and RF U-coaxial connector four, a coaxial switch, and a mounting panel. Another example is the solution disclosed in the authorized patent document with application number 201920962078.X, which includes a switch cabinet support body and a panel. The panel is fixed to one side of the switch cabinet support body and has a U-link on it. Each U-link includes a connection port and an outer conductor. Several groups of U-links are arranged in a fan shape, with an extended U-link positioned directly below the middle group. The connection between each group of U-links and the extended U-link... Both ports have upper and lower circular ports. The upper circular port is a hard feed port, connecting to components such as the output hard feed tube. The two aforementioned solutions have two main problems in use: First, they are structurally and operationally complex. Both achieve automatic switching of RF signals by controlling the rotation of a coaxial switch, but the coaxial switch is indirectly connected to the main and backup transmitters, resulting in a complex device structure. Furthermore, when the coaxial switch fails, the user needs to readjust the device's connections to restore normal operation. Even after the coaxial switch is repaired or replaced and is working properly, the user needs to reset the device's connections. This makes switching between manual and electric switching modes cumbersome, affecting ease of use. Second, they occupy a large amount of space. Due to the complex structure, typically only one coaxial switch, its matching switching panel, and various internal connections can be installed in a single cabinet. Therefore, this application proposes a front-mounted RF signal switching device with an electric motor and coaxial switch. Utility Model Content
