The central support unit 2 can be installed on a building rooftop, a building wall, etc., and can provide a space that the support bracket 10 can be mounted.
Specifically, the central support unit 2 may include a support pole 21 to which the support bracket 10 may be fixed.
The central support unit 2 may comprise a member for securing the installation of the support pole 21. For example, the central support unit 2 may include a plurality of weight members 22, a plurality of connecting legs 23, and a floor support plate 24.
The plurality of weight members 22 may be disposed adjacent to one end of the support pole 21 on which the floor support plate 24 is formed, and may be arranged along the circumferential direction of the support pole 21.
One side of the plurality of weight members 22 may be configured to contact the ground and may be supported by the ground, such as the bottom support plate 24
The plurality of weight members 22 may be connected to the support pole 21 through the plurality of connecting legs 23 extending from the support pole 21.
The plurality of weight members 22 may provide a proper weight to the support pole 21, thereby providing a support force to the support pole 21. Thus, the support pole 21 can maintain its standing state even when impact or force is applied from the outside.
The floor support plate 24 may be formed at one end of the support pole 21. The floor support plate 24 may be a plate-shaped member that contacts the ground. The floor support plate 24 may be supported by the ground, thereby providing support to the support pole 21.

Further, the wireless communication device R may be fixed to one side of the support bracket 10. The wireless communication device R may include an antenna therein, or may be connected to an external antenna, and may be configured to transmit and receive wireless signals.
The support bracket 10 may include a fixing unit 110 for fixing to the support pole 21 and a connection unit 140 for connecting to the wireless communication device R.
Further, the support bracket 10 may include a main support unit 120 and a sub-support unit 130 for supporting the connection unit 140 to the fixing unit 110.
The wireless communication device support bracket 10 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is technically characterized in that the main support unit 120 is configured to extend long from the fixing unit 110 to further move the distance between the support pole 21 and the wireless communication device R.
As a result, it is possible to secure a sufficient space in which the wireless communication device R can be installed, thereby minimizing physical interference between the wireless communication device R even when a plurality of wireless communication device R are installed in the support pole 21.
Referring to
The fixing unit 110 may be configured to be fixed to the support pole 21.
Specifically, the fixing unit 110 may include a first case 112, a second case 114, and a first pole connection screw 116.
The first case 112 may be connected to the other end of the main support 120, and the second case 114 may be disposed apart from the first case 112.
The first pole connection screw 116 can connect the first case 112 and the second case 114.
The distance between the first case 112 and the second case 114 can be adjusted by adjusting the degree of tightening of the first pole connection screw 116. The fixing unit 110 can be fixed to the support pole 21 or can be released from the fixing state thereof by adjusting the distance.
Meanwhile, the mutually opposing surfaces of the first case 112 and the second case 114 may have a curved shape corresponding to the support pole 21. As a result, the contact area of the first case 112 and the second case 114 with respect to the support pole 21 can be further widened, so that the fixing unit 110 can be more securely fixed to the support pole 21.
The first case 112 and the main support unit 120 may be made of separate members, but may be formed integrally as one.
In
Main support unit 120 may extend in a first direction from the fixing unit 110. When the fixing unit 110 is fixed to support pole 21, the first direction may be perpendicular to the extending direction of the support pole 21, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
Here, the first direction refers to an extending direction of the main support unit 120 relative to the fixing unit 110. Also, the extending direction of the support pole 21 refers to the direction in which the support pole 21 extends long, or may be a direction parallel to the Z axis with reference to
The main support unit 120 extends in the first direction from the fixing unit 110, so that the distance between the support pole 21 and the wireless communication device R can be increased.
Therefore, even when the plurality of wireless communication devices R are installed in the support pole 21, physical interference between the plurality of the wireless communication devices R can be minimized. That is, space-efficient arrangement with respect to the plurality of wireless communication devices R is possible.
In
For example, the support bracket 10 may include a plurality of the main support units 120. In this case, the first direction may be defined for each main support unit 120 of the plurality of the main support units 120.
The sub-support unit 130 may extend from one end of the main support unit 120.
The sub-support unit 130 may include a first support body 132 extending along a second direction different from the first direction. Here, the second direction refers to the extending direction of the first support body 132 with respect to one end of the main support unit 120.
The second direction may be perpendicular to the extension direction of the support pole 21 and the first direction, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
Two first support bodies 132 may extend from both sides of one end of the main support unit 120, respectively. In this case, the two first support bodies 132 and the main support unit 120 can form a ‘T’ shape as a whole.
The wireless communication device support bracket 10 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a main support unit 120 and a sub-support unit 130 extending in a branched manner from the main support units 120, thereby implementing various shapes of support units. This allows a larger number of wireless communication devices R to be spatially efficiently disposed in one support bracket 10.
In
The main support unit 120 and the first support body 132 may be made of separate members, but may be integrally formed as one.
The connection unit 140 may be rotatably connected to the sub-support unit 130 about at least one axis of rotation and may be connected to the wireless communication device R.
Specifically, the connection unit 140 may include a first connection body 142 connected with the first support body 132 of the sub-support unit 130.
The first connection body 142 may be rotatably connected to one end of the first support body 132 about at least one rotation axis and may be connected to the wireless communication device R.
The first connection body 142 may include a first link member 1422 and a first mounting member 1424.
One side of the first link member 1422 can be rotatably connected to one end of the first support body 132 about a first rotation axis ax1. The first rotation axis ax1 may be parallel to the extending direction of the support pole 21 with the fixing unit 110 fixed to the support pole 21.
The first mounting member 1424 can be rotatably connected to the other side of the first link member 1422 about a second rotation axis ax2 perpendicular to the first rotation axis ax1, and can be connected with the wireless communication device R.
The wireless communication device support bracket 10 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is characterized in that the first connection body 142 is configured to be capable of biaxial rotation, so that the direction of the wireless communication device R connected to the first connection body 142 can be freely adjusted. For example, the installation direction of the wireless communication device R may be adjusted according to the transmission/reception direction.
The first mounting member 1424 may be connected to the wireless communication device R via a screw joint, but may also be connected with the wireless communication device R in other ways.
On the other hand, two first connection bodies 142 may be connected to two first support bodies 132, respectively. In this case, two wireless communication devices may be connected to each of the two first connection bodies 142.
Since the two first support bodies 132 and the main support unit 120 form a ‘T’ shape as a whole, the respective wireless communication devices connected to the first two connection bodies 142 may be spaced apart from each other. As such, physical interference between wireless communication devices can be minimized.

The three wireless communication devices may be connected to two first connection bodies 342 and one second connection body 344, respectively.
Since the two first support bodies 332, the second support body 334, and the main support unit 320 are cross-shaped as a whole, the three wireless communication devices connected to the two first connection bodies 342 and one second connection body 344 may be spaced apart from each other. As such, physical interference between wireless communication devices can be minimized.
