Methods For Forming Elongated Antennas With Plastic Support Structures For Electronic Devices

View page
US Patent:
20130328730, Dec 12, 2013
Filed:
Jun 6, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/490356
Inventors:
Jerzy Guterman - Mountain View CA, US
Jonathan Haylock - Los Angeles CA, US
Boon W. Shiu - San Jose CA, US
Peter Jeziorek - Mountain View CA, US
Erdinc Irci - Cupertino CA, US
Jiang Zhu - Sunnyvale CA, US

International Classification:
H01Q 1/24
B23K 31/02
B29C 45/26
B32B 37/02
H01Q 9/04
B29C 45/00
US Classification:
343702, 343700 MS, 2643281, 156245, 228164
Abstract:
Electronic devices may be provided with antenna structures. The antenna structures may include an antenna support structure covered with patterned antenna traces. An antenna support structure may be mounted in an electronic device so that a surface of the antenna support structure that is covered with patterned antenna traces lies flush with a planar surface of the electronic device housing. A display cover layer or other planar structure may be attached to the surface of the antenna support structure and the planar surface of the housing adhesive. Injection molding and extrusion techniques may be used in forming a support structure with elongated parallel cavities. An injection molding tool may have a mold core supported by a support structure at one end, supporting engagement features at the ends of mating mold core structures, or support pins. Molded interconnect devices may be soldered to laser direct structuring components to form antennas.

Antenna Structures In Electronic Devices With Hinged Enclosures

US Patent:
20130321216, Dec 5, 2013
Filed:
May 30, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/484040
Inventors:
James W. Jervis - Santa Clara CA, US
Jayesh Nath - Milpitas CA, US
Erdinc Irci - Sunnyvale CA, US
Jerzy Guterman - Mountain View CA, US
Mattia Pascolini - Campbell CA, US
Robert W. Schlub - Cupertino CA, US
International Classification:
H01Q 1/24
US Classification:
343702
Abstract:
Electronic devices may include radio-frequency transceiver circuitry and antenna structures. The antenna structures may include antenna resonating elements, parasitic antenna resonating elements, and antenna ground structures. The antenna structures may include metal traces that are wrapped around an elongated plastic carrier. The plastic carrier may have metal traces that are coupled to a metal bracket using solder that protrudes through a hole in the metal bracket. A printed circuit board may be mounted between the metal bracket and a metal housing. The metal housing may have a protruding ridge portion that is gripped between prongs on the metal bracket. A cover may cover the metal traces on the elongated plastic carrier. The antenna structures may be mounted between hinge structures that couple upper and lower housing structures. The antenna structures may be configured to operate with comparable performance when the upper and lower housing structures are open and closed.

US Patent:
20230083466, Mar 16, 2023
Filed:
Apr 25, 2022
Appl. No.:
17/728737
Inventors:

Xu Han - Cupertino CA, US
International Classification:
H01Q 21/06
H04M 1/02
H04B 1/00
Abstract:
An electronic device may have peripheral conductive housing structures, a display frame, a support plate, a logic board, and an antenna. The antenna may have a resonating element that includes a first slot between the logic board and a segment of the peripheral conductive housing structures, a second slot between the display frame and the segment, and optionally a third slot between the between the support plate and the segment. The slots may be at least partially overlapping, may have respective lengths, may be located at respective distances from a cover layer for the display, and may collectively receive radio-frequency signals in a frequency band such as the L5 GPS band. Switching circuitry and filter circuitry may be coupled to the antenna feed and/or to the antenna feed(s) of one or more adjacent antennas in the electronic device to help to isolate the antennas from each other.

Multiple-Input And Multiple-Output Antenna Structures

US Patent:
20210044012, Feb 11, 2021
Filed:
Oct 23, 2020
Appl. No.:
17/079284
Inventors:
- Cupertino CA, US
Hongfei Hu - Cupertino CA, US
Mattia Pascolini - San Francisco CA, US
Matthew A. Mow - Los Altos CA, US
Erdinc Irci - Sunnyvale CA, US
Erica J. Tong - Pacifica CA, US
Han Wang - Campbell CA, US
International Classification:
H01Q 1/52
H04B 7/0404
H01Q 1/24
H01Q 1/44
H01Q 21/28
H01Q 1/42
H01Q 9/42
H01Q 21/06
Abstract:
An electronic device may include a housing and four antennas at respective corners of the housing. Cellular telephone transceiver circuitry may concurrently convey signals at one or more of the same frequencies over one or more of the four antennas using a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) scheme. In order to isolate adjacent antennas, dielectric-filled openings may be formed in conductive walls of the housing to divide the walls into segments that are used to form resonating element arms for the antennas. If desired, first and second antennas may include resonating element arms formed from a wall without any gaps. The first and second antennas may include adjacent return paths. A magnetic field associated with currents for the first antenna may cancel out with a magnetic field associated with currents for the second antenna at the adjacent return paths, thereby serving to electromagnetically isolate the first and second antennas.

Electronic Devices Having Indirectly-Fed Slot Antenna Elements

US Patent:
20200412001, Dec 31, 2020
Filed:
Jun 28, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/457515
Inventors:
- Cupertino CA, US
Erdinc Irci - Sunnyvale CA, US
Hongfei Hu - Cupertino CA, US
International Classification:
H01Q 13/10
H01Q 1/24
H01Q 9/14
Abstract:
An electronic device may include ground structures and peripheral conductive housing structures defining opposing edges of a slot element. A monopole element may overlap the slot element. The monopole element may be directly fed radio-frequency signals by an antenna feed coupled to the monopole element. The monopole element may radiate the radio-frequency signals in a first frequency band while indirectly feeding the radio-frequency signals to the slot element via near-field electromagnetic coupling. The slot element may radiate the radio-frequency signals in a second frequency band that is lower than the first frequency band. The monopole element and the slot element may collectively form a multi-band antenna that exhibits a relatively wide bandwidth.

International Classification:
H01Q 5/35
H01Q 9/06
H01Q 9/04
H01Q 9/28
Abstract:
An electronic device may include a conductive housing and an antenna. The antenna may include an arm formed from a first segment of the housing. A gap may separate the first segment from a second segment. Respective first and second slots may separate an antenna ground from the first and second segments. The antenna may have a first positive antenna feed terminal on the first segment and a second positive antenna feed terminal on the second segment. A transmission line may include a signal conductor having a first branch coupled to the first positive antenna feed terminal and a second branch coupled to the second positive antenna feed terminal. A switch may be interposed on the second branch for switching the antenna between a first mode in which the second slot is directly fed and a second mode in which the second segment is indirectly fed by the first segment.

Mattia Pascolini - San Francisco CA, US
International Classification:
H01Q 21/00
H01Q 5/35
Abstract:
An electronic device may include antennas, a ground, and a housing. First and second gaps in the housing may define a segment that forms a resonating element for a first antenna. First, second, third, and fourth antenna feeds may be coupled between the segment and ground. Control circuitry may control adjustable components to place the device in first, second, third, or fourth modes. In the first and second modes, the first and fourth feeds convey signals at the same frequency using a multiple-input and multiple-output scheme while the second and third feeds are inactive. In the third mode, the second feed is active and the first, third, and fourth feeds are inactive. In the fourth mode, the third feed is active and the first, second, and fourth antenna feeds are inactive. Isolating return paths may be coupled between the segment and ground in the first and second modes.
