Abstract

An instantly welded antenna of which a helical coil is positioned on an end face of a metallic seat member thereof; the metallic seat member and the helical coil are put into a matched inner blind hole of a plastic insulating sleeve. A heated surface provided on the metallic seat member can be heated instantly. The peripheral surface of the metallic seat member and the inside surface of the matched inner blind hole of the insulating sleeve is used as a heat conductive welding surface to weld the metallic seat member and the insulating sleeve, and the helical coil is positioned therein. Thus, the core diameter, the pitch and the overall length of the helix coil can be maintained, not only the inferiority of products is lowered, but also the processing efficiency of the products is increased.

Claims

1. A method of processing instant welding of an antenna,

said method comprises:

providing a metallic seat member including at least a heated surface;

a helical coil being positioned at the initiative of assembling on a lower end face of said metallic seat member;

said metallic seat member and said helical coil assembled at the initiative of assembling being installed in a matched hole of a plastic insulating sleeve;

said heated surface formed by the upper end face of said metallic seat member being heated up instantly, and the peripheral surface of said metallic seat member being used as a heat conductive welding surface to weld said metallic seat member to said insulating sleeve and to position said helical coil therein.

2. A method of processing instant welding of an antenna as claimed in claim 1, wherein,

said heated surface is positioned close to said welding surface.

3. A method of processing instant welding of an antenna as claimed in claim 1, wherein,

said heated surface is positioned slightly above the joint of said metallic seat member and said insulating sleeve.

4. A method of processing instant welding of an antenna as claimed in claim 3, wherein,

said heated surface is pressurized in a set stroke, and is flush with said end face of said insulating sleeve.

5. A method of processing instant welding of an antenna as claimed in claim 1, wherein,
