휴대용 전화기, 스마트폰, 태블릿 컴퓨터 등의 무선통신 단말기에서는 신호의 송수신을 위해 안테나가 반드시 필요하다. 무선통신 단말기가 소형화 및 박형화되는 추세에 따라 종래에 무선통신 단말기의 외부에 노출되어 형성되던 안테나는 패턴 형태로 구현되어 무선통신 단말기의 내부 또는 표면에 위치하는 것이 일반적이다.In wireless communication terminals such as portable telephones, smartphones, and tablet computers, an antenna is necessary for transmitting and receiving signals. In accordance with the trend of miniaturization and thinning of the wireless communication terminal, the antenna, which is formed by being exposed to the outside of the wireless communication terminal, is conventionally implemented in a pattern form and is generally located inside or on the surface of the wireless communication terminal.
안테나의 성능을 확보하기 위해서는 안테나 패턴과 접지면과의 이격 거리를 충분히 확보할 필요가 있다. 또한, 최적 형상의 패턴을 구현하기 위해서는 충분한 공간이 마련되어야 한다.In order to secure the performance of the antenna, it is necessary to secure a sufficient distance between the antenna pattern and the ground plane. In addition, sufficient space must be provided in order to realize an optimally shaped pattern.
그러나 안테나 패턴이 무선통신 단말기의 최외각에 위치하는 경우에는 안테나 패턴이 외부의 충격 또는 자극에 의해 손상될 수 있고, 외부에 노출되어 전체적인 미감을 떨어트릴 수 있다.However, when the antenna pattern is located at the outermost part of the wireless communication terminal, the antenna pattern may be damaged by an external shock or stimulus, and may be exposed to the outside to reduce the overall aesthetics.
또한, 최근의 통신 환경에서는 많은 대역의 주파수의 신호를 송수신하여야 하므로 하나의 무선통신 단말기에 탑재되는 안테나 패턴의 개수가 많아지고, 그 패턴의 형상도 복잡·정교해지고 있다. 또한, 최근의 무선통신 단말기에 다양한 기능이 부가됨에 따라 외부에 노출되는 전자 부품이 많아지고 있다. 이에 따라 안테나 패턴을 구현할 충분한 공간이 마련되기 어려운 실정이다.In addition, in recent communication environments, signals of many band frequencies have to be transmitted and received, so that the number of antenna patterns mounted in one wireless communication terminal increases, and the shape of the patterns is also complicated and sophisticated. In addition, as various functions are added to recent wireless communication terminals, electronic components exposed to the outside are increasing. Accordingly, it is difficult to provide enough space to implement the antenna pattern.
따라서 충분한 안테나 성능을 달성할 수 있으면서 높은 내구성과 미감을 만족시키고 그 제조 방법도 경제적인 안테나 패턴의 구조 및 제조 방법에 대한 요구가 증대되어 왔다.Therefore, while satisfying high durability and aesthetics while being able to achieve sufficient antenna performance, the manufacturing method of the antenna pattern structure and manufacturing method has been increasing.

When bent smoothly, one side and side may not be clearly distinguished, but as a whole, the main part of one side and side may form an angle of 45 ° or more, and preferably may form an angle of about 90 °. .
제1 사출물(100)은 서로 반대면인 두 면으로 구분될 수 있다. 제1 사출물(100)이 전자 장치 등의 케이스인 경우, 내부 공간과 맞닿는 내부면과 반대면인 외부면으로 구분될 수 있다. 내부면와 외부면은 각각 상술한 것과 같이 일면과 측면을 포함할 수 있다.The first injection molding 100 may be divided into two surfaces that are opposite to each other. When the first injection molded product 100 is a case such as an electronic device, the first injection molded product 100 may be divided into an outer surface that is opposite to an inner surface that contacts the inner space. The inner surface and the outer surface may each include one surface and a side surface as described above.
제1 사출물(100)은 제1 영역(110) 및 제2 영역(120)을 포함할 수 있다. 제2 영역(120)은 제1 영역(110)을 포함한다. 제1 영역(110)의 표면상에는 후술할 안테나 패턴(200)이 형성되고, 제2 영역(120)에는 후술할 제2 사출물(300)이 형성된다.The first injection molding 100 may include a first region 110 and a second region 120. The second region 120 includes the first region 110. An antenna pattern 200 to be described later is formed on the surface of the first region 110, and a second injection molding 300 to be described later is formed in the second region 120.
제1 영역(110)과 제2 영역(120)은 제1 사출물(100)의 측면의 적어도 일부 및 이와 인접한 일면을 포함한다.The first region 110 and the second region 120 include at least a portion of the side surface of the first injection molding 100 and one surface adjacent thereto.
제2 영역(120)의 표면은 제2 영역(120) 주변의 표면과 단차지게 형성될 수 있다. 제2 영역(120)의 표면이 주변의 표면보다 소정의 높이(h2)만큼 낮게 형성될 수 있다. 따라서 제1 사출물(100)에 있어서, 제2 영역(120)의 두께(h1-h2)는 제2 영역 주변(h1)의 두께보다 상기 단차의 높이(h2)만큼 얇게 형성될 수 있다.The surface of the second region 120 may be formed to be stepped with the surface around the second region 120. The surface of the second region 120 may be formed lower by a predetermined height h2 than the surrounding surface. Therefore, in the first injection molding 100, the thickness h1-h2 of the second region 120 may be formed thinner by the height h2 of the step than the thickness h1 of the periphery of the second region.
제1 영역(110)에는 적어도 하나의 관통홀(130)이 형성될 수 있다. 관통홀(130)은 제1 사출물(100)의 내부면과 외부면을 관통할 수 있다.At least one through hole 130 may be formed in the first region 110. The through hole 130 may penetrate the inner surface and the outer surface of the first injection molded product 100.
제2 영역(120)에는 적어도 하나의 홈(140)이 형성될 수 있다. 홈(140)은 제2 영역(120)의 표면에서 함몰된 형태로 형성될 수 있다. 홈(140)에 의해 제2 영역(120)의 표면적을 넓힐 수 있다. 이에 따라 제2 영역(120)과 후술할 제2 사출물(300)의 접촉면의 면적을 넓힐 수 있고, 결합력을 향상시킬 수 있다.At least one groove 140 may be formed in the second region 120. The groove 140 may be formed to be recessed in the surface of the second region 120. The groove 140 may increase the surface area of the second region 120. Accordingly, the area of the contact surface between the second region 120 and the second injection-molded product 300 to be described later can be widened, and the bonding force can be improved.
도 2를 참조하면, 안테나 패턴(200)은 제1 영역(110)의 표면상에 형성된다. 안테나 패턴(200)은 도전성의 박막으로 형성될 수 있다. 안테나 패턴(200)은 구체적으로, 도금층, 연성 회로 기판, 도전성 잉크의 인쇄층 또는 전도성 증착층 등으로 형성될 수 있다.Referring to FIG. 2, the antenna pattern 200 is formed on the surface of the first region 110. The antenna pattern 200 may be formed of a conductive thin film. Specifically, the antenna pattern 200 may be formed of a plating layer, a flexible circuit board, a printed layer of conductive ink, or a conductive deposition layer.
예를 들어 안테나 패턴(200)이 도금층인 경우, 상기 도금층은 제1 사출물(100)의 제1 영역(110)의 표면과 결합되어 있을 수 있다. 안테나 패턴(200)은 제1 사출물(100)의 표면상에서 선택적 도금 과정을 통해 형성될 수 있다. 선택적 도금 과정이란 표면 중 특정 영역에 해당하는 표면에만 선택적으로 도금층이 형성되고, 나머지 표면에는 도금층이 형성되지 않도록 하는 공정이다. 본 발명에서는 제1 영역(110)에만 선택적으로 도금층을 형성하는 것이 될 수 있다. 선택적 도금 과정은 마스킹 방법, 이중사출 방법 또는 LDS(Laser Direct Structuring) 방법 등이 사용될 수 있다.For example, when the antenna pattern 200 is a plating layer, the plating layer may be coupled to the surface of the first region 110 of the first injection molded product 100. The antenna pattern 200 may be formed through a selective plating process on the surface of the first injection molded product 100. The selective plating process is a process in which a plating layer is selectively formed only on a surface corresponding to a specific region of the surface, and the plating layer is not formed on the remaining surface. In the present invention, the plating layer may be selectively formed only on the first region 110. As the selective plating process, a masking method, a double injection method, or an LDS (Laser Direct Structuring) method may be used.
마스킹 방법은 도금층을 형성하려는 부분만 제외하고 나머지 부분에 에칭을 차단하는 마스킹을 형성한다. 이후, 표면을 에칭 용액 등에 노출시켜 도금층을 형성하려는 부분만 선택적으로 에칭한다. 에칭된 표면이 도금 용액과 만나면 금속 이온이 환원되며 도금층이 형성된다.The masking method forms masking for blocking the etching on the remaining portions except for portions to be plated. Thereafter, the surface is exposed to the etching solution or the like to selectively etch only the portion to form the plating layer. When the etched surface meets the plating solution, metal ions are reduced and a plating layer is formed.
이중사출 방법은 도금층을 형성하려는 부분과 나머지 부분을 다른 수지재로 각각 사출한다. 이후, 표면을 도금층을 형성하려는 부분에만 반응하는 에칭 용액 등에 노출시켜 선택적으로 에칭한다. 에칭된 표면이 도금 용액과 만나면 금속 이온이 환원되며 도금층이 형성된다.In the double injection method, the portions to be formed on the plating layer and the remaining portions are injected into different resin materials, respectively. Thereafter, the surface is selectively etched by exposing the surface to an etching solution or the like that reacts only with the portion to form the plating layer. When the etched surface meets the plating solution, metal ions are reduced and a plating layer is formed.
LDS 방법은 처음에는 도금이 되지 않는 성질이었다가 레이저가 조사되면 도금이 가능한 성질로 변화하는 첨가물을 포함하는 수지재로 피도금체를 형성한다. 상기 첨가물은 스피넬 또는 이와 유사한 구조를 가지는 금속 산화물일 수 있다. 예를 들어, 첨가물은 copper chromite spinel(CuCr2O4) 등이 사용될 수 있다. 이후, 도금층을 형성하려는 부분에만 레이저를 조사한다. 이 후, 피도금체의 표면이 도금 용액에 노출되면 레이저가 조사된 부분에만 선택적으로 도금층이 형성된다.In the LDS method, a plated body is formed of a resin material containing an additive that was initially unplated and then changed to a plateable property when the laser was irradiated. The additive may be a metal oxide having a spinel or similar structure. For example, the additive may be copper chromite spinel (CuCr 2 O 4 ) and the like. Thereafter, the laser is irradiated only to the portion where the plating layer is to be formed. Thereafter, when the surface of the plated body is exposed to the plating solution, the plating layer is selectively formed only on the portion to which the laser is irradiated.
안테나 패턴(200)이 도금층인 경우, 안테나 패턴(200)은 제1 영역(110)의 표면에서 소정의 두께(h3)만큼 돌출되어 형성될 수 있다.When the antenna pattern 200 is a plating layer, the antenna pattern 200 may protrude from the surface of the first region 110 by a predetermined thickness h3.
안테나 패턴(200)이 연성 회로 기판인 경우, 안테나 패턴(200)은 연성의 필름 상에 형성된 도전성 박막일 수 있다. 연성의 필름은 외력에 의해 휘어질 수 있어, 곡면으로 형성되어 있거나 꺾어져 형성되어 있는 제1 영역(110)의 표면에 밀착하여 결합할 수 있다.When the antenna pattern 200 is a flexible circuit board, the antenna pattern 200 may be a conductive thin film formed on the flexible film. The flexible film may be bent by an external force, and may be bonded to the surface of the first region 110 that is formed in a curved surface or is bent.
안테나 패턴(200)이 도전성 잉크의 인쇄층인 경우, 도전성 잉크는 제1 영영과 결합력이 있는 재질일 수 있다. 예를 들면, 은 페이스트(Ag paste) 등이 사용될 수 있다.When the antenna pattern 200 is a printed layer of conductive ink, the conductive ink may be a material having a bonding force with the first region. For example, silver paste or the like may be used.
또한, 안테나 패턴(200)은 상술한 도금층, 연성 회로 기판, 도전성 잉크의 인쇄층 또는 전도성 증착층 등이 둘 이상 조합 또는 결합된 것일 수도 있다. 예를 들어, 안테나 패턴(200)은 제1 사출물(100)의 일면에 형성된 일부분은 도금층이고, 측면에 형성된 다른 일부분은 전도성 증착층이며, 상기 두 부분이 연결되는 오버랩 부분이 존재할 수 있다.In addition, the antenna pattern 200 may be a combination or combination of two or more of the above-described plating layer, a flexible circuit board, a printing layer of a conductive ink or a conductive deposition layer. For example, the antenna pattern 200 may have a portion formed on one surface of the first injection molding 100 as a plating layer, another portion formed on the side thereof as a conductive deposition layer, and an overlap portion where the two portions are connected.
안테나 패턴(200)은 제1 사출물(100)의 일면에서 측면까지 연장되어 형성될 수 있다. 또한, 안테나 패턴(200)은 제1 사출물(100)이 케이스인 경우, 외부면에 형성되는 것이 바람직하다. 통상적으로 안테나 패턴(200)은 평면 역F 안테나(PIFA, Planar Inverted F Anttena) 일 수 있다. 이런 경우, 안테나 패턴(200)은 접지면과의 이격 거리가 클수록 성능이 우수한 경향이 있다. 안테나의 접지면은 통상적으로 케이스 내부에 수용되는 회로 기판의 일부가 될 수 있다. 따라서 케이스의 내부 공간과 최대한 이격되는 것이 바람직하다. 이를 위해서, 안테나 패턴(200)이 형성될 수 있는 영역이 최대한 넓은 것이 유리하다. 따라서 안테나 패턴(200)은 제1 사출물(100)의 일면에서 측면까지 연장되어 형성되는 것이 유리하다. 또한, 안테나 패턴(200)은 제1 사출물(100)의 내부면보다 외부면에 형성되는 것이 유리하다.The antenna pattern 200 may extend from one surface of the first injection molding 100 to the side surface thereof. In addition, the antenna pattern 200 is preferably formed on the outer surface when the first injection molded product 100 is a case. Typically, the antenna pattern 200 may be a Planar Inverted F Anttena (PIFA). In this case, the antenna pattern 200 tends to have better performance as the distance from the ground plane increases. The ground plane of the antenna may be part of a circuit board that is typically housed inside a case. Therefore, it is desirable to be spaced apart from the inner space of the case as much as possible. To this end, it is advantageous that the area where the antenna pattern 200 can be formed is as wide as possible. Therefore, the antenna pattern 200 is advantageously formed to extend from one side of the first injection molding 100 to the side. In addition, the antenna pattern 200 is advantageously formed on the outer surface than the inner surface of the first injection molding (100).
본 발명의 안테나 패턴(200)이 형성된 사출물은 안테나 패턴(200)과 연결되는 연결 패턴(210)을 더 포함할 수 있다. 연결 패턴(210)은 안테나 패턴(200)이 송수신하는 무선통신 단말기의 통신부로 전달한다. 구체적으로, 연결 패턴(210)의 일단은 안테나 패턴(200)과 연결되고 타단은 통신부와 연결되는 단자를 형성할 수 있다. 통신부 측의 단자는 통상적으로 케이스의 내부 공간에 위치하기 때문에, 안테나 패턴(200)이 외부면에 형성되는 경우 연결 패턴(210)은 외부면에서 내부면까지 연장되어 형성된다.The injection molding formed with the antenna pattern 200 of the present invention may further include a connection pattern 210 connected to the antenna pattern 200. The connection pattern 210 is transmitted to the communication unit of the wireless communication terminal transmitted and received by the antenna pattern 200. Specifically, one end of the connection pattern 210 may be connected to the antenna pattern 200 and the other end may form a terminal connected to the communication unit. Since the terminal of the communication unit is typically located in the inner space of the case, when the antenna pattern 200 is formed on the outer surface, the connection pattern 210 is formed to extend from the outer surface to the inner surface.
연결 패턴(210)은 관통홀(130)의 내주면을 통해 외부면의 표면에서 내부면의 표면까지 연장된다. 구체적으로 연결 패턴(210)의 일단은 외부면상에 형성된 안테나 패턴(200)의 일부와 연결되고, 타단은 내부면상에서 단자를 형성한다.The connection pattern 210 extends from the surface of the outer surface to the surface of the inner surface through the inner circumferential surface of the through hole 130. Specifically, one end of the connection pattern 210 is connected to a portion of the antenna pattern 200 formed on the outer surface, the other end forms a terminal on the inner surface.
연결 패턴(210)은 안테나 패턴(200)과 마찬가지로 도금층, 연성 회로 기판, 도전성 잉크의 인쇄층 또는 전도성 증착층 등으로 형성될 수 있다.Like the antenna pattern 200, the connection pattern 210 may be formed of a plating layer, a flexible circuit board, a printed layer of conductive ink, or a conductive deposition layer.
연결 패턴(210)은 안테나 패턴(200)의 일 부분과 연결되어 명확히 구분되지 않을 수 있다. 또한, 경우에 따라 안테나 패턴(200)과 연결 패턴(210)의 적어도 일부를 포함한 부분이 신호를 송수신하는데 사용될 수 있다.The connection pattern 210 may be connected to a part of the antenna pattern 200 and may not be clearly distinguished. In some cases, a portion including at least a portion of the antenna pattern 200 and the connection pattern 210 may be used to transmit and receive a signal.
도 3을 참조하면, 제2 사출물(300)은 제2 영역(120)에 형성되고, 안테나 패턴(200)을 덮는다. 제2 사출물(300)에 의해 안테나 패턴(200)은 외부로 노출되지 않을 수 있다. 안테나 패턴(200)은 외부의 자극이나 충격 등에 의해 손상될 수 있다. 또한, 안테나 패턴(200)이 외부로 노출되는 경우에는 미감을 떨어트릴 수 있다. 특히, 제1 사출물(100)의 외부 측면에 형성되는 안테나 패턴(200)은 스마트폰 등의 전자 장치 측면을 이루며 최외곽으로 노출될 수 있다. 이는 별도의 베터리 케이스 등 탈착식 최외부 케이스가 조립되는 경우에도 가려지지 않고 노출되는 부분이다. 따라서 안테나 패턴(200)은 별도의 층(layer)에 의해 가려질 필요가 있다.Referring to FIG. 3, the second injection molded product 300 is formed in the second region 120 and covers the antenna pattern 200. The antenna pattern 200 may not be exposed to the outside by the second injection molding 300. The antenna pattern 200 may be damaged by an external stimulus or shock. In addition, when the antenna pattern 200 is exposed to the outside, the aesthetics may be dropped. In particular, the antenna pattern 200 formed on the outer side surface of the first injection molded product 100 may be exposed to the outermost part of the electronic device such as a smartphone. This is a part that is not hidden even when a detachable outer case such as a separate battery case is assembled. Therefore, the antenna pattern 200 needs to be covered by a separate layer.
제2 사출물(300)의 표면은 외부로 노출될 수 있다. 따라서 제2 사출물(300)의 표면과 제2 영역(120) 주변의 제1 사출물(100)의 표면은 쉽게 구분되지 않도록 형성되는 것이 바람직하다.The surface of the second injection molded product 300 may be exposed to the outside. Therefore, it is preferable that the surface of the second injection molded material 300 and the surface of the first injection molded product 100 around the second region 120 are not easily distinguished.
이를 위해 제2 사출물(300)의 색깔 및 질감 등은 주변의 표면과 최대한 유사한 것이 바람직하다.To this end, the color and texture of the second injection molding 300 is preferably as close as possible to the surrounding surface.
또한, 제2 사출물(300)과 주변의 표면과의 경계 부분의 간극을 최대한 좁거나 완전히 매꿔지는 것이 바람직하다.In addition, it is preferable that the gap of the boundary portion between the second injection-molded product 300 and the surrounding surface be filled as narrowly or completely as possible.
또한, 제2 사출물(300)의 표면과 주변의 표면은 서로 단차없이 매끄럽게 형성되는 것이 바람직하다. 상술한 것과 같이, 제2 영역(120)은 주변의 다른 표면보다 낮도록 단차지게 형성된다. 제2 사출물(300)은 제2 영역(120)에 형성되어 상기 단차를 제거할 수 있다. 즉, 제2 영역(120)에 형성된 제2 사출물(300)의 표면은 제2 영역(120) 주변의 표면과 단차없이 형성될 수 있다. 이를 위해, 제2 사출물(300)은 상기 단차의 높이만큼의 두께(h2)로 형성될 수 있다. 그러한 경우, 제2 영역(120) 주변의 표면과 제2 사출물(300) 표면의 높이가 동일해지고 단차가 없을 수 있다.In addition, the surface of the second injection-molded product 300 and the surface of the periphery may be smoothly formed without a step. As described above, the second region 120 is formed stepped to be lower than other surrounding surfaces. The second injection molded material 300 may be formed in the second area 120 to remove the step. That is, the surface of the second injection molded product 300 formed in the second region 120 may be formed without a step with the surface around the second region 120. To this end, the second injection molded material 300 may be formed to have a thickness h2 corresponding to the height of the step. In such a case, the height of the surface around the second region 120 and the surface of the second injection molding 300 may be the same and there may be no step.
안테나 패턴(200)이 제1 영역(110)의 표면에서 돌출되어 형성되고 제2 사출물(300)의 두께가 상기의 단차의 높이(h2)만큼이 경우, 제2 사출물(300)에 있어서 제1 영역(110)과 그 주변 영역 사이에서 안테나 패턴(200)의 돌출 정도에 해당하는 단차(h3)가 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 제2 사출물(300) 중 제1 영역(110) 상에 형성되어 안테나 패턴(200)을 덮는 부분은 제2 영역(120)의 표면과 주변 영역의 표면의 단차의 높이와 안테나 패턴(200)이 제1 영역(110)의 표면에서 돌출된 두께의 차(h2-h3)만큼의 두께로 형성되는 것이 바람직하다. 이를 통해, 제2 사출물(300)의 표면이 전체적으로 단차없이 매끄러울 수 있으며, 제2 영역(120) 주변의 표면과도 단차없이 매끄러울 수 있다.When the antenna pattern 200 is formed to protrude from the surface of the first region 110 and the thickness of the second injection molded product 300 is equal to the height h2 of the step, the first injection molded material 300 may be formed. A step h3 corresponding to the degree of protrusion of the antenna pattern 200 may occur between the region 110 and its peripheral region. Therefore, the portion of the second injection molding 300 formed on the first region 110 and covering the antenna pattern 200 may have a height difference between the surface of the second region 120 and the surface of the peripheral region and the antenna pattern 200. It is preferable that the thickness is formed to be equal to the difference h2-h3 of the thickness protruding from the surface of the first region 110. Through this, the surface of the second injection molded product 300 may be smooth without a step as a whole, and may be smooth without a step with the surface around the second region 120.
상술한 것과 같이, 제2 사출물(300)과 그 주변의 경계가 최대한 좁거나 완전히 매꿔지고, 제2 사출물(300)의 표면과 주변의 표면이 서로 단차없이 매끄럽게 형성되기 위해서 제2 사출물(300)은 제2 영역(120)에 인서트 사출(insert molding)에 의해 형성될 수 있다.As described above, the second injection molding 300 is formed so that the boundary between the second injection molding 300 and its surroundings is completely narrowed or completely filled, and the surface of the second injection molding 300 and the surrounding surface are smoothly formed without a step. May be formed by insert molding in the second region 120.
구체적으로 도 4를 참조하면, 제1 영역(110)에 안테나 패턴(200)이 형성된 제1 사출물(100)의 적어도 일부가 금형(350)의 내부 공간(360)에 위치한다. 상기 적어도 일부는 제2 영역(120)을 포함한다. 그 후, 금형의 내면 중 일부가 제2 영역(120) 주변의 표면에 맞닿도록 위치한다. 이에 의해서 제2 영역(120)의 표면, 제2 영역(120)과 주변의 단차부 및 금형의 내면에 의해 둘러사이는 내부 공간(360)이 형성될 수 있다. 금형의 주입구(353)를 통해 상기 내부 공간(360)에 수지재가 주입되어 제2 사출물(300)이 사출된다. 이에 의해 제2 사출물(300)은 제1 사출물(100)과 밀접하게 결합될 수 있다. 이에 따라 경계가 최대한 좁거나 완전히 매꿔질 수 있다. 또한, 이에 의해 제2 사출물(300)의 표면이 그 주변의 표면과 서로 단차 없이 매끄럽게 형성될 수 있다.In detail, referring to FIG. 4, at least a part of the first injection molding 100 having the antenna pattern 200 formed in the first region 110 is located in the internal space 360 of the mold 350. The at least part includes the second region 120. Thereafter, a portion of the inner surface of the mold is positioned to abut the surface around the second region 120. As a result, an inner space 360 may be formed between the surface of the second region 120, the stepped portion around the second region 120, and the inner surface of the mold. The resin material is injected into the internal space 360 through the injection hole 353 of the mold to inject the second injection material 300. As a result, the second injection molded product 300 may be closely coupled to the first injection molded product 100. As a result, the boundary can be as narrow or completely filled as possible. In addition, the surface of the second injection-molded product 300 may be formed smoothly without a step with the surface around it.
상술한 인서트 사출 과정에서 제1 사출물(100)의 적어도 일부와 안테나 패턴(200)이 금형(350) 내부에 위치한다. 따라서 제2 사출물(300)의 사출하는 과정에서 금형 내부의 온도 및 압력 등의 조건은 제1 사출물(100)과 안테나 패턴(200)이 손상되지 않는 정도로 유지되는 것이 바람직하다.In the insert injection process described above, at least a part of the first injection molding 100 and the antenna pattern 200 are positioned inside the mold 350. Therefore, in the process of injecting the second injection molding 300, conditions such as temperature and pressure inside the mold may be maintained to such an extent that the first injection molding 100 and the antenna pattern 200 are not damaged.
이를 위해, 제2 사출물(300)은 제1 사출물(100)에 비해 상대적을 저온 사출이 가능한 재질이 사용될 수 있다. 예를 들어, 제2 사출물(300)은 제1 사출물(100)에 비해 유리 섬유(glass fiber)의 함유량이 적은 수지재가 사용될 수 있다. 또한, 제2 사출물(300)은 저온 사출에 최적화된 사출 수지재가 사용될 수 있다.To this end, the second injection material 300 may be a material capable of relatively low temperature injection compared to the first injection material (100). For example, a resin material having a smaller content of glass fibers may be used for the second injection molding material 300 than the first injection molding material 100. In addition, the injection molding material optimized for low temperature injection may be used as the second injection molded product 300.
제2 사출물(300)은 제1 사출물(100)의 측면을 연장할 수 있다. 제1 사출물(100)의 측면의 끝단에서 연장되어 형성되는 제2 사출물(300)의 부분은 다른 부분보다 두껍게 형성될 수 있다. 구체적으로, 제1 사출물(100)의 측면의 끝단에서의 제1 사출물(100), 안테나 패턴(200) 및 제2 사출물(300)의 두께의 합과 동일한 두께로 형성될 수 있다.The second injection molding 300 may extend the side surface of the first injection molding 100.
