ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING ANTENNA MODULE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240322419 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE COMPRISING ANTENNA MODULE

The patent application describes an electronic device with a rotatable display panel and input module connected via a hinge module.

  • The device includes a display panel and a first housing where the display panel is located.
  • An input module is present in a second housing, which is connected to the first housing via a hinge module.
  • The hinge module allows the first housing to rotate along a rotation axis.
  • An antenna unit is connected to the rotation axis of the hinge module.
  • The antenna unit consists of a connector, an antenna module, and a weight to maintain the antenna module's radiation surface vertical.

Potential Applications: This technology could be used in portable electronic devices such as smartphones or tablets to improve signal reception and connectivity.

Problems Solved: The design addresses the challenge of maintaining antenna orientation for optimal signal reception in a compact and portable device.

Benefits: Enhanced signal reception and connectivity for electronic devices with a rotatable display panel.

Commercial Applications: This technology could be valuable for manufacturers of smartphones, tablets, and other portable electronic devices looking to improve antenna performance.

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does the weight connected to the antenna module help maintain optimal signal reception? 2. What are the potential challenges in integrating this technology into existing electronic devices?


Original Abstract Submitted

according to certain embodiments of the present disclosure, an electronic device comprises: a display panel; a first housing in which the display panel is disposed; an input module; a second housing in which the input module is disposed, wherein the first housing is configured to be rotatable with respect to the second housing via a hinge module. the hinge module is fixably coupled to the second housing to rotate the first housing along a rotation axis of the first housing. an antenna unit is connected to at least a part of the rotation axis of the hinge module, wherein the antenna unit may include: a connector connected to the at least one part of the rotation axis; an antenna module connected to the connector and rotatable with respect to the connector on the rotation axis; and a weight connected to at least a portion of the antenna module and to maintain a radiation surface of the antenna module level substantially vertical with respect to the ground.
