200920263457.6 titled "ANTENNA REFLECTOR", filed with the Chinese State Intellectual Property Office
on November 19, 2009. The entire disclosures thereof are incorporated herein by reference.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0002] The invention relates to an antenna reflector.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0003] Most of conventional outdoor antennae include an antenna bracket and an antenna reflector.
The antenna reflector includes a main support rod, a left support rod, a right support
rod, and a plurality of branch support members. The plurality of branch support members
are respectively fixed between the main support rod and the left support rod, the
right support rod. Though the branch support members are strong enough, they cannot
be folded. Thus, it is neither convenient to package, nor convenient to carry and
transportation.
[0004] In view of the above disadvantages, some advantageous improvements are made in the
present invention on the basis of the conventional antenna reflector.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0005] The object of the present invention is to overcome the disadvantages of the prior
art, and to provide an antenna reflector which is simple in design, and may be conveniently
installed, packaged and may be folded.
[0006] The object of the present invention is achieved by the following technical solutions.
[0007] An antenna reflector installed on an antenna support rod includes a main support
rod, a left support rod, a right support rod and a plurality of connecting support
members provided between the main support rod and the left support rod, the right
support rod. Two ends of each connecting support member are fixed on the left support
rod and the right support rod with screws, respectively. At least one connecting pin
which allows the connecting support members to be rotated relative to the main support
rod is provided between at least one of the connecting support members and the main
support rod.
[0008] For the above antenna reflector, axel holes are respectively provided at an upper
end and a lower end of the main support rod. Through holes which correspond to the
axel holes and receive the connecting pins are provided on at least one of the connecting
support members. The connecting pin passes through the through hole and is received
in the axel hole of the main support rod.
[0009] For the above antenna reflector, an upper arc gasket and a lower arc gasket are respectively
provided at a top side and a bottom side of the connecting support member. The upper
arc gasket is disposed between the connecting support member and the connecting pin,
and the lower arc gasket is disposed between the connecting support member and the
main support rod. The upper arc gasket and the lower arc gasket are respectively provided
with holes which correspond to the axel hole and the through hole and through which
the connecting pin passes.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages.
Since the connecting pin which allows the connecting support members to be rotated
relative to the main support rod is provided between at least one of connecting support
member and the main support rod, and the left support rod and the right support rod
are respectively fixed at the left and right ends of the connecting support members,
the connecting support members may drive the left support rod and the right support
rod connected therewith to move upwardly or downwardly when the connecting support
members are rotated relative to the main support rod, so that the left support rod
and the right support rod move closer to the main support rod and are folded together.
Therefore, the area of the reflector is reduced, which is easier for the operator
to package the reflector.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0014] Hereinafter, the present invention will be further described in detail with reference
to drawings and a specific embodiment.
[0015] An antenna reflector installed on an antenna support rod includes a main support
rod 1, a left support rod 2, a right support rod 3 and a plurality of connecting support
members 4 provided between the main support rod 1 and the left support rod 2, the
right support rod 3. Two ends of each connecting support members 4 are fixed on the
left support rod 2 and the right support rod 3 with screws, respectively. A connecting
pin 5 which allows the connecting support members 4 to be rotated relative to the
main support rod 1 is provided between at least one of the connecting support members
4 and the main support rod 1.
[0016] Axel holes 6 are provided at the upper and lower ends of the main support rod 1,
respectively. Through holes 7 which correspond to the axel holes 6 and may receive
the connecting pins 5 are provided on the connecting support members 4, respectively.
The connecting pins 5 pass through the through holes 7 and are received in the axel
holes 6 of the main support rod 1, respectively.
[0017] An upper arc gasket 8 and a lower arc gasket 9 are provided at the top and bottom
sides of the connecting support member 4, respectively. The upper arc gasket 8 is
provided between the connecting support member 4 and the connecting pin 5, and the
lower arc gasket 9 is provided between the connecting support member 4 and the main
support rod 1. The upper arc gasket 8 and the lower arc gasket 9 are respectively
provided with holes 10 which correspond to the axel hole 6 and the through hole 7
and through which the connecting pin 5 passes.
[0018] When being assembled, the left and right ends of each connecting support member 4
are firstly fixed on the left support rod 2 and the right support rod 3 with screws,
respectively, and then the upper arc gasket 8 and the lower arc gasket 9 are installed
on the connecting support member 4, with the holes 10 of the upper arc gasket 8 and
the lower arc gasket 9 corresponding to the through hole 7of the connecting support
member 4, and then the connecting support member 4 with the upper arc gasket 8 and
the lower arc gasket 9 is placed on the main support rod 1, with the axel hole 6 of
the main support rod 1 corresponding to the through hole 7, and finally, the connecting
support member 4 and the main support rod 1 are movably connected together by the
connecting pin 5, i.e., the connecting pin 5 passes through the through hole 7 and
is received in the axel hole 6 of the main support rod 1. Since the connecting pin
5 which allows the connecting support members 4 to be rotated relative to the main
support rod 1 is provided between at least one of connecting support members 4 and
the main support rod 1, and the left support rod 2 and the right support rod 3 are
respectively fixed at the left and right ends of the connecting support members 4,
the connecting support members 4 may drive the left support rod 2 and the right support
rod 3 connected therewith to move upwardly or downwardly when the connecting support
members 4 are rotated relative to the main support rod 1, so that the left support
rod 2 and the right support rod 3 move closer to the main support rod 1 and are folded
together. Therefore, the area of the reflector is reduced, which is easier for the
operator to package the reflector.
