Antenna module with contact elements and shielding
The patent US12003033B2 describes an innovative antenna module designed for high-frequency applications. The module comprises multiple antennas, each consisting of several antenna elements and elongated contact elements that facilitate connection to a printed circuit board (PCB). The contact elements are configured to establish electrical connections by moving the antennas and PCB towards each other. Additionally, the module features a shielding system, which includes a shielding frame and cover that encase the antenna interface circuit components on the PCB, ensuring protection and stability. The design allows for integral formation of contact elements with antenna elements, and includes a coupling member that connects the shielding components to the antennas, enhancing structural integrity.
Furthermore, the patent outlines a high-frequency assembly that integrates the antenna modules with the PCB and corresponding antenna interface circuits. Each shielding frame is mounted on the PCB, providing circumferential contact and enclosing the interface circuit components. The assembly method involves soldering the components to the PCB and connecting the antenna contact elements to the conductive paths through a relative movement mechanism. This assembly process is designed to ensure efficient and reliable connections, facilitating the transmission and reception of high-frequency signals. The patent also mentions the potential for multiple antennas operating at different frequencies, indicating versatility in application.
