Abstract

An antenna with a feed cable support member comprises a first conductor, a pivotal shaft, a second conductor and a feed cable. The first and second conductors respectively connect with two sides of the pivotal shaft. The pivotal shaft enables the first and second conductors to open or close by 0-180 degrees. The support member is connected with one end of the pivotal shaft and disposed inside the slot between the first and second conductors. The feed cable has a high frequency signal feeding terminal fixed to the surface of the support member. Based on the principle of an aperture coupled antenna, the present invention adds the support member into the slot, whereby the high frequency signal feeding terminal can be directly fixed to the surface of the support member, and whereby the operating frequency and impedance matching can be fine tuned via the support member.

Claims

1. An antenna with a feed cable support member, comprising

a first conductor;

a pivotal shaft with one side thereof connected with said first conductor;

a second conductor connected with another side of said pivotal shaft, wherein said pivotal shaft implements opening or closing of said first conductor and said second conductor;

a support member connected with one end of said pivotal shaft and disposed in a slot between said first conductor and said second conductor; and

a feed cable having a high frequency signal feeding terminal fixed to a surface of said support member.

2. The antenna with a feed cable support member according to claim 1, wherein said pivotal shaft enables said first conductor and said second conductor to open or close by 0-180 degrees.

3. The antenna with a feed cable support member according to claim 1, wherein each of said pivotal shaft, said first conductor and said second conductor is made of an electric conduction material.

4. The antenna with a feed cable support member according to claim 1, wherein each of said first conductor and said second conductor is a baseplate or casing of a wireless communication device.

5. The antenna with a feed cable support member according to claim 1, wherein said high frequency signal feeding terminal of said feed cable is connected with one of said first conductor and said second conductor.
