Description

Antenna and downtilt angle control device thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of mobile communication base station antennas, in particular to a downtilt angle control device, by means of which the control of the electrical downtilt angle of more than one wave beam antenna can be realized, and the independent control of the electrical downtilt angle of each wave beam of the antenna is realized.
Background
With the increasing number of mobile communication terminal users, the network capacity requirements of stations in a mobile cellular network are increasing, and meanwhile, the interference between different stations and even between different sectors of the same station is required to be minimized, namely, the maximization of the network capacity and the minimization of the interference are realized. This is typically achieved by adjusting the downtilt of the antenna beam at the station.
In two modes of mechanical downtilt and electronic downtilt of adjusting beam downtilt, the electronic downtilt has obvious advantages, and is a current mainstream and a future development trend. Electronic downtilt control is mainly divided into two main types, namely internal control and external control, wherein the internal control is the main stream of the current and future. The electronic downtilt built-in control mainly has two modes: one way is by configuring each beam of a single antenna with a set of drive and control systems. When the number of the wave beams is large, the scheme has high cost and occupies large space inside the antenna; the other mode is to configure a set of driving and controlling system for each pair of antennas, and the scheme needs at most two motors, has obvious cost advantage for the multi-beam antenna, has compact structure and saves space, and is the mainstream in the future.
The latter approach is adopted by kensiren factory two-party company (Kethrain), and the multi-beam shaping apparatus is elaborated in its patent "mobile communication antenna including the multi-beam shaping apparatus", wherein the main contents are the switching part and the driving part of the shaping apparatus. But it has at least the following problems: 1. the structure is complex, the response efficiency is slow, and the flexibility is not enough; 2. multiple motors are needed to drive, the antenna is affected, and the cost of the motors is high.
The patent document with publication number CN105508518A discloses an antenna electrically-controlled switching device using a single motor, which realizes forward and reverse driving of driven shafts by providing an auxiliary shaft for each driven shaft and meshing gears with the driven shafts or the auxiliary shafts, and realizes two functions of switching selection and driving of the driven shafts when the motor rotates in different directions by unidirectional rotation characteristics of unidirectional gears (ratchets). But it has the following problems: 1. since two shafts (an output shaft and an auxiliary shaft) are required for the driven shafts corresponding to each frequency band, the size of the switching device is severely restricted, and when a plurality of frequency bands are required to be driven, the set gears and shafts are twice as large as normal; 2. the ratchet has low stroke timeliness, and the stepping of the motor control is fine, so that when the ratchet does not rotate one ratchet tooth yet in control, the motor can rotate to a corresponding stepping angle, and the adjustment error is caused.

In order to prevent the output gears 42, 43 from moving axially along the output shaft 41 to influence the meshing of the planetary gears 31, 32 with the output gears, and further ensure the accuracy of power transmission, both ends of the output mechanism are also provided with limiting members for fixing the axial positions of the output gears. The limiting piece comprises a jacking block 44 which is arranged between the output gear and the base and sleeved on the output shaft 41.
In addition, in order to facilitate the connection of the control device with the phase shifter, a plug post which is convenient for plugging with a phase shifter connecting component is arranged at one end of the output shaft 41 penetrating out of the end cover 12.
The working principle of the downtilt angle control device of the present invention is described below with the surface of the unidirectional bearing facing the base as the front surface.
When the input shaft 21 rotates clockwise, the driving gear (including the upper driving gear 23 and the lower driving gear 22) rotates clockwise, the lower planetary gear 31 rotates counterclockwise, and further drives the lower ring gear 35 engaged with the lower planetary gear and the inner ring of the fourth one-way bearing 51 fixedly connected with the lower ring gear 35 to rotate counterclockwise, however, the inner ring of the fourth one-way bearing 51 cannot rotate counterclockwise relative to the outer ring, and the position of the lower ring gear 35 is locked, so that the lower planetary gear 31 revolves clockwise around the lower driving gear 22 along the track defined by the lower ring gear 35, and at the same time, the lower planetary gear 31 drives the lower planet carrier 33 and the inner ring of the third one-way bearing 52 fixedly connected with the lower planet carrier 33 to rotate clockwise, thereby performing a selective switching operation on the output shaft 41; the upper planet wheel 32 rotates anticlockwise, so that the inner ring of the upper annular gear meshed with the upper planet wheel and the inner ring of the second one-way bearing 53 fixedly connected with the upper planet wheel are driven to rotate anticlockwise, the inner ring of the second one-way bearing 53 can rotate relative to the outer ring due to the fact that the rotation directions of the inner ring of the second one-way bearing 53 and the inner ring of the fourth one-way bearing 51 are opposite, and meanwhile, the upper planet wheel rotates around the rotating shaft of the upper planet wheel due to the fact that the upper planet wheel cannot rotate due to the fact that the upper planet wheel is locked by the first one-way bearing 54, and output torque is output to rotation of an output shaft meshed with the upper planet wheel.
Similarly, when the input shaft 21 rotates counterclockwise, the lower planetary gear 31 drives the input shaft 41 engaged therewith to rotate the output torque, in the course of which the upper planetary gear 32 revolves around the upper drive gear 23 to selectively switch the output shaft.
It will be appreciated that the output shaft 41 of the present invention is cooperatively disposed with the lower and upper planetary gears 31, 32 such that when one of the planetary gears is performing a switching operation, the other planetary gear drives one of the output shafts engaged therewith to rotate an output torque. The downward inclination angle control device has the advantages of high power transmission response speed, high efficiency and more accurate control because the unidirectional bearing is adopted to realize the control of the rotation direction. Meanwhile, as no corresponding auxiliary shaft is needed, the control device is smaller in size and more compact in structure, and is beneficial to reducing the size of the control device and miniaturizing the antenna.
The invention also relates to an antenna (not shown) adopting the downtilt angle control device, which comprises a plurality of phase shifters, and the output shaft is correspondingly connected with the phase shifters. The downward inclination angle control device is smaller in size, so that the miniaturization of the antenna is facilitated; the downtilt angle control device has high control precision, so that the antenna downtilt angle is more convenient and accurate to adjust, and the radiation index is more excellent.
The foregoing is only a partial embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that modifications and adaptations can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention, and such modifications and adaptations are intended to be comprehended within the scope of the present invention.
