Specific embodiment
To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, below in conjunction with attached drawing to the present invention make into
It is described in detail to one step, it is clear that described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than whole implementation
Example.Based on the embodiments of the present invention, obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts
All other embodiment, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Firstly the need of explanation, antenna provided by the invention is the antenna for being applied to mobile terminal, which can
Think the common mobile terminals such as mobile phone in the prior art, tablet computer.And the mobile terminal has metal dorsal shield 10, day
Line is in setting, using the structure on metal dorsal shield 10 as radiating element.
With reference to shown in Fig. 1, wherein Fig. 1 shows the structure of metal dorsal shield 10, and the metal dorsal shield 10 is in setting, gold
Belong to and opened up two gaps, respectively the first gap 14 and the second gap 13 on dorsal shield 10, wherein the metal dorsal shield 10 includes one
A bottom plate and the frame being arranged around the bottom plate, wherein the first gap 14 is arranged on bottom plate, and the setting of the second gap 13 exists
On frame, and the first gap 14 is connected to the second gap 13 and to form an annular gap, and the annular gap is by metal dorsal shield
10 are cut into the first sub- dorsal shield 11 and the second sub- dorsal shield 12.With reference to Fig. 1, the first gap 14 is in setting, by metal dorsal shield 10
Laterally (perpendicular to direction of 10 length direction of metal dorsal shield) cutting, and extended on frame from bottom plate.And above-mentioned side
Frame includes the first side wall, second sidewall and third side wall, and in specific setting, second sidewall and third side wall are arranged on
The two sides of the first side wall, and the first side wall is connect with second sidewall and third side wall respectively, wherein the first side wall is metal dorsal shield
A 10 end side wall, second sidewall and third side wall are respectively the long side wall of metal-back.When the second gap 13 is arranged, this
Two gaps 13 are arranged on the wall of end side, as can be seen that second gap 13 is when being arranged on the wall of end side, in end side in Fig. 1
Only have 13 1, the second gap gap on wall, therefore, there is biggish space to be arranged, facilitate the processing in the second gap 13.
In addition, second gap 13 is a gap closed at both ends, and when forming the second gap 13 in order to guarantee the first gap
14 and the second connection effect between gap 13, the both ends in second gap 13 extend respectively to second sidewall and third side wall,
And exist between the first gap 14 and intersect, to ensure that the connection in the first gap 14 and the second gap 13.With continued reference to figure
1, when the first gap 14 and the second gap 13 are connected to, so that the second sub- dorsal shield 12 forms the structure with annular gap,
And the first sub- dorsal shield 11 forms an independent laminated structure.
As shown in Figures 1 and 2, which includes two parts, respectively feed element and radiating element, wherein the day
The radiating element of line uses the first sub- dorsal shield 11 and the second sub- dorsal shield 12 of above-mentioned metal dorsal shield 10, and the first sub- dorsal shield 11
And second be of coupled connections between sub- dorsal shield 12, this is of coupled connections both can be using direct-coupling or using INDIRECT COUPLING.?
When direct-coupling, the first sub- dorsal shield 11 is of coupled connections with the described second sub- dorsal shield 12 by conduct piece 50.The conduct piece 50 can be with
It is dowel or sheet metal for different conduct pieces 50, such as conduct piece 50.When the conduct piece 50 is specifically arranged, the conduct piece
50 are arranged in the first gap 14.
When using the structure, when feed element is fed to radiating element, the first sub- dorsal shield 11 and the second son are carried on the back
Couple feed between shell 12.And shape gap is changed since the first gap and the second gap form one, so that the second sub- dorsal shield 12
It can be used as a ring radiation body, so that entire antenna is as a loop aerial.When the antenna is loop aerial,
The two sides in the first gap 14 are not related to ground, and therefore, when using the structure, the size in the first gap 14 will not be to the property of antenna
It can impact, so that the width in the first gap 14 can do narrower, width can be narrow more than 1.5mm, limit energy
Arrive 0.2mm or so, compared to for the gap of the 1.5mm used in the prior art, can significantly reduce be arranged in metal
The width in the first gap 14 on dorsal shield 10, so as to improve 10 aesthetics of metal dorsal shield.And it can be seen from foregoing description
When the radiating element of antenna is set, it is only necessary to open up two gaps on metal dorsal shield 10, processing is fairly simple, thus specifically giving birth to
When production, processing effect can be improved, and then improve yields.
For the feed element in the embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figure 2 comprising feed element includes feeding point 21
And feed line 40, and feeding point 21 is connect with feed line 40 by matching network.Wherein, feeding point 21 is arranged in circuit board 20
On, and the feeding point 21, when being connect by matching network with feed line 40, which can according to need progress
Setting.In a specific embodiment, which includes the branch of multiple parallel connections, and for propping up one of
The selection switch that road is connected to feed line 40;Wherein, at least one branch road is provided with inductively or capacitively.When specifically used,
It can according to need connecting with feed line 40 by capacitor or inductance selection, so as to improve the performance of antenna.
Feed line 40 therein can be prepared using conductive material relatively common in the prior art, such as the feed line 40
For feed elastic slice or FPC flexible circuit.It certainly can also be using other modes, such as LDS (laser direct forming) metal layer.?
When feed line 40 feeds radiating element, can direct feed can both be used, can also be used in different ways
Couple feed, when using couple feed, feed element and radiating element couple feed.In the present embodiment, it is coupled shown in
Feed refers to INDIRECT COUPLING, i.e., has certain gap between feed line 40 and radiating element, by way of coupling, realizes
Feed line 40 is electrically connected with radiating element.
And in specific connection, which can both be electrically connected with the described first sub- dorsal shield 11, can also be with institute
Feed element is stated to be electrically connected with the described second sub- dorsal shield 12.Such as in a specific embodiment, the feed line and the first son
Dorsal shield 11 is electrically connected, at this point, being of coupled connections between the second sub- dorsal shield 12 and the first sub- dorsal shield 11, the second sub- dorsal shield 12 is used as one
Minor matters are coupled, in another specific embodiment, which is electrically connected with the second sub- dorsal shield 12, at this point, the first son back
It is of coupled connections between shell 11 and the second sub- dorsal shield 12, the first sub- dorsal shield 11 is used as a coupling minor matters.Electrical connection packet among the above
It includes but does not limit directly electrical connection and connected with INDIRECT COUPLING, it is only necessary to can be realized and feed electric feed signal to radiating element i.e.
It can.
The embodiment of the invention also provides a kind of mobile terminal, which includes the antenna of any of the above-described.Wherein,
The mobile terminal can be the common mobile terminals such as mobile phone, tablet computer.Wherein, which can be with reference among the above for day
