2 and 3, the antenna support having a bending structure according to the present invention includes a bending member 220, a supporting member 230, a pressing member 240, and a housing 200.

The bending member 220 is composed of a spherical housing coupling portion 224 and the antenna coupling portion 222 extending from the housing coupling portion 224 and coupled to the antenna.

The support member 230 is a spherical shape when the bending member 220 is inserted into the housing 200 receives the elastic support of the pressing member 240, such as an elastic spring at the lower portion of the bending member 220 of the bending member 220 The housing coupling part 224 is pressed.

The housing 200 is cylindrical and has an accommodating groove in which the supporting member 230 and the pressing member 240 are accommodated, and a locking protrusion 212 is formed at an upper end thereof, thereby being folded by the pressing force of the pressing member 240. The housing coupling portion 224 of the 220 is prevented from being separated. In addition, an insertion groove 210 into which the antenna coupling part 222 is inserted is formed at the upper side of the housing 200 when the bending member 220 is bent.

Here, the antenna support having a bending structure according to the present invention is formed so that the lower surface of the engaging projection 212 is rounded so as to have the same radius of curvature of the curvature radius of the housing coupling portion 224. As such, when the bottom surface of the locking protrusion 212 and the radius of curvature of the housing coupling portion 224 are the same, the contact area between the housing coupling portion 224 and the locking protrusion 212 is widened to increase the frictional force, thereby causing the bending member 220 to be reduced. ) Can be firmly maintained.

In addition, a plurality of engagement grooves coupled to the support member 230 when the bending member 220 is bent on the outer surface of the housing coupling portion 224 so that the bending state of the bending member 220 can be maintained firmly for each bending angle. Is formed. At this time, the plurality of engagement grooves are arranged along the direction of the center axis of the antenna coupling portion 222 so that the bending state of the bending member 220 can be firmly maintained for each bending angle irrespective of the rotation angle of the bending member 220. It is formed in the form of a ring around the central axis. The engagement groove can adjust the number of times and the angle according to the position of the groove, as shown in the drawing can be made five times when rotated 180 ° by making a groove every 45 °.

On the other hand, the antenna support having a bending structure according to the present invention may further include a pressing force adjusting member 250 which is coupled to the bottom of the housing 200 to increase or decrease the pressing force on the bending member 220. The pressing force adjusting member 250 may be configured to adjust the pressing force by raising or lowering the pressing member 240 through the housing 200 and the screw coupling, and to maintain the rotational state of the bending member 220 by adjusting the pressing force. I can regulate it.

Figure 4 is a schematic view showing a rotating state of the bending member formed with the engaging groove. 5 is a schematic view showing a rotating state of the folding member without the engaging groove.

4 and 5, when the antenna (not shown) coupled to the antenna coupling unit 222 is rotated at an angle in a specific direction, the bending member 220 is also rotated to insert the groove 210 of the housing 200. The support member 230 inserted into the support member 230 to support the bending member 220 is elastically supported by the pressing force of the joining member 240 in the housing 200 to lift and fix the rotating state of the bending member 220. .

That is, while the engagement groove of the housing coupling portion 224 is engaged with the support member 230, the bending member 220 is rotated, thereby forming another engagement groove formed along the central axis direction of the antenna coupling portion 222. When it is engaged in, and the rotation stops, the support member 230 is elastically supporting the housing coupling portion 224 of the bending member 220 by the pressing member 240 in the engaged state. As such, when the engagement groove is formed in the housing coupling portion 224, the folding member 220 rotates according to the engagement groove. However, as shown in FIG. 5, the housing coupling portion does not form the engagement groove as shown in FIG. 5. The bending member 220 may be configured to be freely rotated without being affected by the angle.

In addition, the bending member 220 may be rotated in two directions by the insertion groove 210 located opposite to each other, the insertion groove 210 is formed spaced at intervals of 90 degrees as shown in Figure 6 four directions It may be rotated to. As such, by forming two or four insertion grooves 210, the insertion grooves 210 may be fixed in a specified direction in the state where the antenna is installed.

On the other hand, the present invention provides a portable terminal having the antenna support.
