Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cloud radar antenna technology, specifically to a cloud radar antenna pitch fine-tuning support. Background Technology

[0002] Cloud radar is a key device for detecting cloud structure, water content and vertical movement. The precise adjustment of its antenna elevation angle directly affects the accuracy of the detection data. The support used when installing the antenna is the device that supports the antenna structure and allows it to move within a specified airspace.

[0003] In the prior art, such as the radar antenna fixing device disclosed in announcement number CN221176640U, this technical solution provides a radar antenna fixing device, which includes, from top to bottom, a gimbal, a telescopic main rod, and a star-shaped base. The gimbal is connected to one end of the telescopic main rod via a first connecting part, and the other end of the telescopic main rod is connected to the star-shaped base via a second connecting part. The front of the gimbal includes a fixing mechanism, which includes a fixing part and a square fixing groove. The fixing part is connected to the gimbal by screws. The star-shaped base includes several extendable base rods and two sets of opposing slide rail base rods, each of which includes a guide rail and a slider. This utility model can effectively fix a log-periodic antenna, enabling it to more stably perform its signal amplification function.

[0004] However, the pitch adjustment of traditional cloud radar antennas usually achieves a wide range of angle changes through coarse adjustment mechanisms. When fine-tuning the pitch angle of cloud radar antennas, manual operation is required, which relies on experience. This results in low accuracy and requires repeated disassembly and assembly of components or the use of multiple tools, leading to low maintenance efficiency.

[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, this application proposes a cloud radar antenna elevation fine-tuning support. Utility Model Content

[0006] This utility model aims to provide a pitch fine-tuning support for cloud radar antennas. It is mainly used to solve the problem that the existing pitch adjustment of cloud radar antennas usually achieves a large range of angle changes through coarse adjustment mechanisms. When fine-tuning the pitch angle of cloud radar antennas, manual operation is required, which relies on experience. This results in low accuracy. In addition, it requires repeated disassembly and assembly of parts or the use of multiple tools, resulting in low maintenance efficiency.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A pitch fine-tuning support for a cloud radar antenna includes a main rod and a gimbal rotatably connected to the upper end of the main rod via a first connector. A sliding sleeve is slidably connected to the outer wall of the main rod, and a limiting bolt passes through the sliding sleeve and is threadedly connected to the sliding sleeve. A second connector is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sliding sleeve, and a third connector is slidably connected to the bottom of the gimbal. A telescopic rod is rotatably connected to the second connector, and the other end of the telescopic rod is rotatably connected to the third connector.

[0009] The working principle and beneficial effects of this utility model:

[0010] 1. Working Principle: The cloud radar antenna is mounted on the pan-tilt platform. (Both the main pole and the star-shaped base are detachable for easy carrying and transportation. The star-shaped base serves as a fixing device in both horizontal and vertical directions and can also prevent damage in strong winds. The telescopic main pole can adjust the height and control rotation, facilitating the adjustment of the antenna's signal coverage and ensuring stable operation.) The part in parentheses refers to existing technology, which is not elaborated upon in this application. When adjusting the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna, rotate the limiting bolt to loosen it, and then slide the sliding sleeve up and down. The telescopic rod can be used to coarsely adjust the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna. After the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna is adjusted to a suitable level, tighten the limiting bolt so that one end is pressed against the outer wall of the main pole to fix the sliding sleeve. Then, adjust the length of the telescopic rod to finely adjust the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna. Once the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna is properly adjusted, it can be used normally.

[0011] 2. Beneficial effects: When using the cloud radar antenna, the pitch angle can be coarsely adjusted by sliding the upper and lower sliding sleeve, and the pitch angle can be finely adjusted by adjusting the length of the telescopic rod. This not only makes the adjustment of the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna more convenient, but also makes the adjustment of the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna more accurate.

[0012] Preferably, the telescopic rod includes a sleeve rod rotatably connected to the second connector, a threaded rod slidably connected to the other end of the sleeve rod, the other end of the threaded rod extending out of the sleeve rod and rotatably connected to the third connector, and a threaded cylinder rotatably connected to the end of the sleeve rod away from the second connector. The threaded rod is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the threaded cylinder. After the sliding sleeve adjusts the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna to a suitable position, the limiting bolt is tightened, and then the threaded cylinder is rotated to allow it to slide with the threaded rod threadedly connected to it, thereby realizing the adjustment of the length of the telescopic rod, and thus realizing the fine adjustment of the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna.

[0013] Preferably, a connecting rod is fixedly connected to the upper end of the outer wall of the main rod, and a scale ring is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting rod. A pointer matching the scale ring is fixedly connected to the first connecting piece. When adjusting the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna, the pointer will rotate synchronously with the first connecting piece to point to the corresponding position of the scale ring. The operator can intuitively understand the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna through the reading on the scale ring, which can make the pitch angle adjustment of the cloud radar antenna more accurate.

[0014] Preferably, a T-shaped block is fixedly connected to the top of the third connector, and a T-shaped groove matching the T-shaped block is opened at the bottom of the gimbal. Multiple ball bearings are rotatably connected to the top of the T-shaped block, and the ball bearings are distributed in a linear array at equal intervals on the T-shaped block. The T-shaped block on the third connector and the T-shaped groove at the bottom of the gimbal can play a good role in limiting and guiding the third connector, thereby making the third connector more stable when sliding and effectively preventing the third connector from detaching from the gimbal. The multiple ball bearings on the T-shaped block can effectively reduce the friction between the T-shaped block and the inner wall of the T-shaped groove, thereby making the third connector slide more smoothly.

[0015] Preferably, the outer wall of the main rod has multiple grooves that match the limiting bolts, and the grooves are distributed linearly and equidistantly on the outer wall of the main rod. After tightening the limiting bolts so that one end is inserted into the groove, the sliding sleeve can be better fixed, thereby making the device more stable during use.

[0016] Preferably, a guide block is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding sleeve, and a guide groove matching the guide block is opened on the outer wall of the main rod. This can play a better role in limiting and guiding the sliding sleeve, so that the sliding sleeve can only slide in the vertical direction relative to the main rod. This allows one end of the limiting bolt to always be aligned with the groove.

[0017] Preferably, the outer wall of the threaded cylinder is fitted with a rubber sleeve, and the rubber sleeve has anti-slip texture. This not only makes it more comfortable for the worker to hold and rotate the threaded cylinder, but also effectively increases the friction between the worker's hand and the threaded cylinder, thereby effectively preventing the worker's hand from slipping when rotating the threaded cylinder.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] 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.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-4 A cloud radar antenna pitch fine-tuning support includes a main rod 1 and a gimbal 2 rotatably connected to the upper end of the main rod 1 via a first connector 20. A sliding sleeve 3 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the main rod 1, and a guide block 14 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding sleeve 3. A guide groove 15 matching the guide block 14 is opened on the outer wall of the main rod 1, which can play a good role in limiting and guiding the sliding sleeve 3, so that the sliding sleeve 3 can only slide in the vertical direction relative to the main rod 1.

[0025] A limiting bolt 4 passes through the sliding sleeve 3 and is threadedly connected to the sliding sleeve 3. The outer wall of the main rod 1 has multiple grooves 16 that match the limiting bolt 4. The grooves 16 are arranged in a linear array and are evenly distributed on the outer wall of the main rod 1. After tightening the limiting bolt 4 so that one end is inserted into the groove 16, the sliding sleeve 3 can be better fixed, thus making the device more stable during use.

[0026] The outer wall of the sliding sleeve 3 is fixedly connected to the second connecting piece 5, and the bottom of the gimbal 2 is slidably connected to the third connecting piece 7. The second connecting piece 5 is rotatably connected to the telescopic rod 6, and the other end of the telescopic rod 6 is rotatably connected to the third connecting piece 7. Rotate the limiting bolt 4 to loosen it, and then slide the sliding sleeve 3 up and down. The telescopic rod 6 can be used to make a coarse adjustment of the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna. After the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna is adjusted to a suitable value, tighten the limiting bolt 4 so that one end is inserted into the groove 16 to fix the sliding sleeve 3. Then adjust the length of the telescopic rod 6 to make a fine adjustment of the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna. After the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna is adjusted to a suitable value, it can be used normally.

[0027] More specifically, the telescopic rod 6 includes a sleeve rod rotatably connected to the second connecting member 5, and a threaded rod 9 slidably connected to the other end of the sleeve rod 8. The other end of the threaded rod 9 extends out of the sleeve rod 8 and is rotatably connected to the third connecting member 7. A threaded cylinder 10 is rotatably connected to the end of the sleeve rod 8 away from the second connecting member 5. A rubber sleeve is fitted on the outer wall of the threaded cylinder 10, and anti-slip texture is provided on the rubber sleeve. The threaded rod 9 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the threaded cylinder 10. After the sliding sleeve 3 adjusts the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna to an approximately suitable position, the limiting bolt 4 is tightened. Then, the threaded cylinder 10 is rotated to allow it to slide with the threaded rod 9 that is threadedly connected to it, thereby realizing the adjustment of the length of the telescopic rod 6, and thus realizing the fine adjustment of the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna.

[0028] More specifically, a connecting rod 17 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the outer wall of the main rod 1, and a scale ring 18 is fixedly connected to the other end of the connecting rod 17. A pointer 19 matching the scale ring 18 is fixedly connected to the first connecting piece 20. When adjusting the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna, the pointer 19 will rotate synchronously with the first connecting piece 20 to point to the corresponding position of the scale ring 18. The staff can intuitively understand the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna through the reading on the scale ring 18, which makes the pitch angle adjustment of the cloud radar antenna more accurate.

[0029] More specifically, a T-shaped block 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the third connector 7, and a T-shaped groove 12 matching the T-shaped block 11 is opened at the bottom of the gimbal 2. Multiple ball bearings 13 are rotatably connected to the top of the T-shaped block 11, and the ball bearings 13 are distributed linearly and equidistantly on the T-shaped block 11. Through the T-shaped block 11 on the third connector 7 and the T-shaped groove 12 at the bottom of the gimbal 2, the third connector 7 can play a better role in limiting and guiding, thereby making the third connector 7 more stable when sliding, and effectively preventing the third connector 7 from detaching from the gimbal 2. Through the multiple ball bearings 13 on the T-shaped block 11, the friction between the T-shaped block 11 and the inner wall of the T-shaped groove 12 can be effectively reduced, thereby making the third connector 7 slide more smoothly.

[0030] As can be seen from the above, the specific embodiments of this utility model are as follows:

[0031] The cloud radar antenna is installed on the gimbal 2. (Both the main pole and the star-shaped base are detachable for easy carrying and transportation. The star-shaped base serves as a fixing device in both horizontal and vertical directions and can also prevent damage in strong winds. The telescopic main pole can adjust the height and control rotation, making it easy to adjust the signal coverage of the antenna and helping the antenna to function stably.) The part in parentheses refers to existing technology, which is not described in detail in this application. When it is necessary to adjust the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna, rotate the limiting bolt 4 to loosen it, and then slide the sliding sleeve 3 up and down. The telescopic rod 6 can be used to make a coarse adjustment of the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna. After the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna is adjusted to a suitable position, tighten the limiting bolt 4 so that one end is inserted into the groove 16, which can provide a better fixing effect for the sliding sleeve 3. Then rotate the threaded cylinder 10 to make it slide the threaded rod 9 connected to it, thereby adjusting the length of the telescopic rod 6 and thus making a fine adjustment of the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna. After the pitch angle of the cloud radar antenna is adjusted to a suitable position, it can be used normally.

[0032] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model.
