Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to Internet of Things (IoT) communication technology, specifically an IoT antenna. Background Technology

[0002] The Internet of Things (IoT) is an important component of the next generation of information and communication technologies, and its IoT antennas are widely used in all aspects of life.

[0003] For example, the publication (announcement) number: CN221947391U, publication (announcement) date: 2024-11-01, discloses an IoT circuit breaker antenna assembly, including an antenna body and a socket box. One end of the antenna body is connected to a plug rod, and the plug rod has an annular positioning groove around the plug rod in the middle. A spring plate is installed inside the socket box, and a positioning protrusion is provided at the top of the spring plate. The top of the socket box has a mounting hole. The plug rod is inserted into the socket box through the mounting hole, the positioning protrusion is engaged with the annular positioning groove, and the spring plate and the plug rod are in conductive contact. The plug rod and the socket box are quickly plugged in and out through a plug-in connection, and the spring plate is used for locking and positioning. Installation and disassembly are convenient and quick. After installation, the antenna body can rotate freely, simplifying the installation process. It does not require a nut connection and can be blindly plugged in. During installation, it can be inserted all the way in without careful alignment. It is suitable for various working environments and improves work efficiency.

[0004] This utility model also discloses an Internet of Things (IoT) device including the above-mentioned IoT circuit breaker antenna assembly.

[0005] The shortcomings of existing technology lie in the fact that, in order to improve the applicability of IoT antennas, the rod-shaped receiver-transmitter of the antenna is often designed with a folding feature, while the antenna connection end includes a straight male connector with a threaded connection. Therefore, to ensure communication between the two, the communication harness is placed at the hinge position. When the antenna experiences weak signal reception or transmission, the rod-shaped receiver-transmitter will rotate to search for a signal. This requires frequent movement at the hinge position, necessitating frequent bending and stretching of the harness. Furthermore, the harness is exposed to humid outdoor air due to the hinge, and repeated deformation accelerates harness aging, leading to exposed conductors within the harness's rubber layer, affecting normal communication. Frequent deformation can also cause stress damage to the conductors, exacerbating communication disconnections. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide an Internet of Things (IoT) antenna to address the aforementioned shortcomings in the prior art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0008] An Internet of Things (IoT) antenna includes an SMA straight male connector with a support base, an antenna mount rotatably mounted on the support base, and an arc mount on the antenna mount;

[0009] It also includes a main conductor with an arc conductor, which is movable within an arc seat;

[0010] A secondary conductor is provided on the arc conductor, and the secondary conductor is connected to the antenna mount.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: an antenna body is fixedly installed at the end of the antenna mount.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution: it also includes an elastic plate with two notches, and the two notches are respectively located on the outside of the main conductor and the secondary conductor.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution: the arc seat has an installation chamber located outside the arc conductor and the elastic plate.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution: Symmetrically distributed main side plates are fixedly installed on the elastic plate. A bayonet is provided on the support base. The ends of the main side plates are slidably connected to the inner wall of the bayonet, and the ends of the main side plates face each other to clamp the main conductor. As a further description of the above technical solution: Symmetrically distributed secondary side plates are also fixedly installed on the elastic plate. The ends of the secondary side plates are slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting chamber, and the ends of the secondary side plates face each other to clamp the secondary conductor.

[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution: symmetrically distributed locking blocks are fixedly installed on the elastic plate.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution: the bayonet is provided with a lock hole for inserting the lock block.

[0017] As a further description of the above technical solution: the elastic plate and the arc conductor are in contact and cooperate under driven deformation.

[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution: the main side plate is specifically an elastic metal sheet.

[0019] In the above technical solution, the Internet of Things antenna provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects: by reserving a certain length of wire to obtain a main conductor with an arc conductor, and placing the arc conductor in the raised part of the mounting chamber in the arc seat, the arc conductor is made to have a length exceeding the wire deformation and bending required. Thus, when the secondary conductor moves with the antenna seat, the arc conductor remains stable, effectively reducing the deformation and bending of the wire, weakening the stress damage caused by external forces to the wire, and ensuring the communication operation of the wire.

[0029] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution, including the following embodiments:

[0031] Example 1

[0032] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, this embodiment provides deformation protection for the conductor based on the existing foldable rod-shaped communication antenna, that is, it provides a raised cavity for storing a certain length of conductor. By reserving a certain length of conductor to obtain the main conductor 3 with an arc conductor 31, and placing the arc conductor 31 in the raised part of the mounting chamber 23 in the arc seat 22, the arc conductor 31 is made to have a length exceeding the length required for conductor deformation and bending. Therefore, when the secondary conductor 32 moves with the antenna seat 2, the arc conductor 31 moves with a small range of motion, thus maintaining stability well, effectively reducing the deformation and bending of the conductor, weakening the stress damage caused by external forces to the conductor, and ensuring the communication operation of the conductor.

[0033] Specifically, the antenna body 21 is integrally formed on the antenna base 2, which is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0034] Furthermore, the sub-conductor 32 and the arc conductor 31 are both integrally formed on the main body 3. The main body 3 is connected to the elastic core inside the SMA straight male connector 1, while the sub-conductor 32 connects the wire harness inside the antenna mount 2 and uses electrical connection, thereby realizing the movement of the sub-conductor 32 to adapt to the antenna mount 2.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment details the components for reinforcing and fastening the main body 3. By inserting the two main side plates 42 into the bayonet 12 during the installation of the elastic plate 4, and utilizing the trapezoidal channel of the bayonet 12, the main side plates 42 are made to move towards each other, thereby clamping the main body 3 at the ends of the two main side plates 42. This ensures the stability of the main body 3 during installation and use, and avoids stress damage to the position of the main body 3 caused by external forces.

[0037] Specifically, the main side plate 42, the secondary side plate 43 and the elastic plate 4 are integrally formed and are all made of elastic metal, which makes the main side plate 42 and the secondary side plate 43 easy to bend and deform from the connection position.

[0038] Furthermore, rubber pads can be glued to the opposite end faces of the main side plate 42 and the secondary side plate 43 to enhance the anti-slip function. In the maximum deformation state, the main side plate 42 and the secondary side plate 43 only provide a pinching function for the main conductor 3 and the secondary conductor 32, thereby avoiding damage to the rubber layer of the conductor due to excessive pressure.

[0039] Furthermore, the support base 11 is integrally formed on the SMA straight male connector 1, and the bayonet 12 is pre-processed with a channel having a frustum-shaped cross-section, with an opening at the top of the channel for the arc conductor 31 to extend out. At the same time, the side wall of the support base 11 has a hole, which is used to communicate with the through hole on the antenna base 2, and a pin is used to achieve a hinged through connection between the two holes.

[0040] Furthermore, the locking hole 13 on the inner wall of the inclined surface of the bayonet 12 effectively embeds the locking block 44, the purpose of which is to lock and fix the elastic plate 4 near the main side plate 42, ensuring the normal use of the elastic plate 4.

[0041] Furthermore, two notches 41 are located at both ends of the elastic plate 4, with the purpose of accommodating the insertion and movement of the main conductor 3 and the secondary conductor 32.

[0042] Example 3

[0043] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment details the active protection at the position of the sub-conductor 32. During the gradual bending of the antenna mount 2, the elastic plate 4 near the sub-side plate 43 is gradually bent by force, and part of the force is dispersed through the two sub-side plates 43, thereby causing the sub-side plates 43 to actively extend into the gradient, so that the ends of the two sub-side plates 43 come together. Thus, when the antenna body 21 bends from the SMA straight male connector 1, it will clamp the sub-conductor 32, thereby protecting the sub-conductor 32.

[0044] Specifically, the inner sidewall of the installation chamber 23 gradually narrows as it approaches the raised position of the arc seat 22.

[0045] Example 4

[0046] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment details the protective function for the conductor when the antenna mount 2 and the SMA straight male connector 1 are aligned in a straight line. With the antenna mount 2 and the SMA straight male connector 1 aligned, the opening of the mounting chamber 23 is at its maximum, but the elastic plate 4 keeps this opening closed, thus reducing the intrusion of external moisture. Furthermore, the elastic plate 4 can be pressed inwards, causing it to bend into the mounting chamber 23 and apply pressure to the arc conductor 31, ensuring the stability of the arc conductor 31 after stretching and preventing excessive deformation.

[0047] Specifically, the elastic plate 4 is bent into the mounting chamber 23 in the default state, and the resistance at the hinge position of the antenna mount 2 is greater than the force stored after the elastic plate 4 is deformed. Therefore, when the antenna mount 2 is held at the predetermined deflection angle, the deformation of the elastic plate 4 will not cause the antenna mount 2 to deflect on its own.

[0048] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
