WIRELESS TRANSMISSION DEVICE AND BENDABLE ANTENNA THEREOF
A bendable antenna is provided. The bendable antenna is adapted to connect a cable. The bendable antenna includes an antenna body, a connection base, a first pivot base, a second pivot base, a first elastic element and a first restriction structure. The connection base is connected to the antenna body. The first pivot base is connected to the connection base, wherein the first pivot base includes a first recess. The second pivot base pivots on the first pivot base. The first elastic element is disposed in the first recess of the first pivot base, wherein the first elastic element is telescoped on the cable. The first restriction structure is connected to the connection base, wherein the first restriction structure pushes the first elastic element to restrict the first elastic element in the first recess.
ANTENNA DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING THE SAME
An antenna device and an electronic device including the same are provided. The antenna device includes a housing that includes a first plate, a second plate facing a direction opposite to the first plate, and a side member surrounding a space between the first plate and the second plate, a display viewable through at least a portion of the first plate, an antenna assembly disposed within the housing wherein the antenna assembly includes a first printed circuit board, a second printed circuit board, at least one structure interconnecting the first printed circuit board and the second printed circuit board and including conductive paths, a plurality of conductive patterns, and a wireless communication circuit, a flexible printed circuit board, and a third printed circuit board.
ROTATABLE HOUSING ASSEMBLIES FOR CAMERAS AND ANTENNAS
According to examples, an apparatus may include a housing assembly, a camera, and an antenna. The housing assembly may include a first portion that may be rotatably coupled to an electronic device and a second portion that may be rotatably coupled to the first portion. The second portion may have a columnar shape and a cavity may be formed in the second portion. The camera and the antenna may be disposed in the cavity formed in the second portion of the housing assembly.
Quick coupling assemblies
A coupling assembly for a first device having a bayonet is provided. The coupling assembly includes a top plate, a bottom plate, and first fasteners securing the top and bottom plates to one another. The top plate having a slot along a connection axis, where the slot receives the bayonet. The bottom plate has a locking arm in axial alignment with the slot and a biasing arm in a region that is radially offset from the locking arm. The region of the bottom plate receives the bayonet, when in a locked position, with the locking arm preventing the bayonet, by interference with locking arm, from rotating about the connection axis back into alignment with the slot and with the biasing arm preventing the bayonet, by interference with biasing arm, from being withdrawn axially along the connection axis.
