BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Fig. 1 to Fig. 4. Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing an exterior configuration of an antenna of a leaky waveguide structure according to an embodiment of the present invention. The external appearance of an antenna of a waveguide structure according to the present invention is not different basically from a conventional unit. Namely, an antenna 1 of a waveguide structure is manufactured with a main body 2 and a radiation plate 5 made of a metallic material such as aluminum or copper. As shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 3 showing a section taken along a line III-III
in Fig. 1, the main body 2 includes a flat bottom plate 3 and a plurality of sidewalls 4A, 4B and 4C each being formed of a substantially rectangular elongated thin plate. The bottom plate 3 and the sidewalls 4A, 4B and 4C are made of aluminum integrally in one block by casting, e.g. by a die casting method. Each sidewall includes upper and lower sides 4a and 4b parallel to a longitudinal direction, and the lower side 4b is integrally connected to the bottom plate 3 so as to hold the sidewall perpendicular to the bottom plate. As shown in Fig. 2, the sidewalls 4A are arranged parallel to one another, and include long sidewalls and short sidewalls disposed alternately one another. The sidewalls 4B are arranged along a traverse direction at a right angle to the longitudinal direction of each sidewall 4A with predetermined intervals between them, and the central part of each sidewall 4B is integrally connected to an end portion of the elongated sidewall 4A. The sidewall 4C is arranged parallel to the sidewalls 4B.
The radiation plate 5 is made of a flat plate ~1~03~
of aluminum and arranged parallel to the bottom plate 3 so as to provide a space between the bottom plate 3 and the radiation plate 5. One surface of the radiation plate 5 is fixed to the upper sides 4a of the sidewalls 4A, 4B and 4C at a plurality of points by spot welding.
With this, the space between the bottom plate 3 and the radiation plate 5 is separated by the sidewalls into a plurality of waveguides communicated mutually with each other and disposed in predetermined pattern. Namely, radiation waveguides 7A parallel to one another are formed each defined by two adjacent sidewalls 4A, the bottom plate 3 and the radiation plate 5, and a feed waveguide 7B extending in a direction at a right angle with the radiation waveguides is formed between the sidewalls 4B and the sidewall 4C. The feed waveguide 7B
is branched into adjacent two of the radiation wave-guides 7A through each gap 18, thus forming a ~ branch.
Cross slots 6 are formed at a part of the radiation plate 5 facing to each of the radiation waveguides 7A
with predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direc-tion of the waveguide. Further, inductive posts 10 are provided at positions on the bottom plate 3 facing to the feed waveguide 7B corresponding to the ~ branches.
These posts 10 are made of aluminum integrally with the bottom plate 3. The radiation waveguide, the feed waveguide, the inductive post, the ~ branch and the cross slot described above are all well known. Since detailed description thereof is made in the document (4) ~14~36~
mentioned above, it is requested to refer to the same.
The thickness of the bottom plate 3 is 1.5 mm, and the thickness of the radiation plate 5 is 0.3 mm.
Each of the sidewalls 4A, 4B and 4C has a thickness of 1.0 mm, and a height, i.e., the distance between parallel sides 4a and 4b of 4.0 mm. Further, the distance between adjacent two sidewalls 4A, i.e., the width of the radiation waveguide 7A is 17 mm, and the distance between the sidewall 4B and the sidewall 4C, i.e., the width of the feed waveguide 7B is 34 mm.
The spot welding between the upper side 4a of each sidewall and the radiation plate 5 is made preferably by laser spot welding. The upper surface of the radiation plate 5 is irradiated with energy of 8 joules (Kw-msec) of YAG laser having the wavelength of 1.06 ~m, thereby to spot weld the radiation plate to the upper side of the sidewall at intervals of 2.5 mm pitch.
As shown in Fig. 4, the part irradiated with laser is melt so as to form a weld metal 8 thereby connecting fixedly the upper side 4a of the sidewall 4A to the radiation plate 5.
When an electromagnetic wave of 11.85 GHz is supplied to the antenna 1, the electromagnetic wave is transmitted outside through the feed waveguide 7B, the gaps 18, the radiation waveguides 7A and the slots 6.
Fig. 5 shows a typical section of a weld when welding is made by another spot welding method. In this spot welding, a dent 9 having a conical section is ~ ~ ~ Q 3 6 ~ ' formed by punching in advance at an upper portion of the radiation plate 5 opposite to the spot-welding position and the spot-welding is applied to the portion of the dent 9. In this case, the applied power of the laser is decreased, and it is possible to prevent excessive weld metal 8 from swelling on the upper surface of the radiation plate as shown in Fig. 4.
Next, another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Fig. 6 and Fig. 7.
In this embodiment, an antenna 11 of a waveguide structure also includes a main body 12 and a radiation plate 15 made principally of aluminum like in the embodiment shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2. The main body 12 is provided with a flat bottom plate 13 and a plurality of substantially rectangular elongated thin sidewalls 14A, 14B and 14C. The bottom plate 13 and the sidewalls 14A, 14B and 14C are made of aluminum in one block by casting, e.g., by a die casting method.
Each sidewall includes upper and lower sides 14a and 14b parallel to each other in the longitudinal direction, and the lower side 14b is integrally connected to the bottom plate 13 in a block so as to hold the sidewall perpendicularly the bottom plate.
The sidewalls 14A are arranged parallel to one another in the longitudinal direction with predetermined intervals, as shown in Fig. 7. The sidewalls 14B are arranged along a direction being at a right angle to the longitudinal direction of the sidewalls 14A
3 ~
with predetermined gaps 20 therebetween. The central part of each sidewall 14B is integrally fixed to the end portion of one sidewall 14A. The sidewall 14C is arranged parallel to the sidewalls 14B.
The radiation plate 15 is made of a flat aluminum plate and arranged parallel to the bottom plate 13, and one surface thereof is fixed to the upper sides 14a of the sidewalls 14A, 14B and 14C by spot welding.
With this, a radiation waveguide 17A is defined by adjacent two sidewalls 14A, the bottom plate 13 and the radiation plate 15, and a feed waveguide 17B is formed between the sidewalls 14B and the sidewall 14C. The feed waveguide 17B communicates with the radiation waveguides 17A through gaps 20, respectively. Cross slots 16 are formed at predetermined intervals along two lines in the longitudinal direction of the waveguide at a part of the radiation plate 15 facing each radiation waveguide 17A.
The thickness of the bottom plate 13 is 1.5 mm, and the thickness of the radiation plate 15 is 0.3 mm. Each of the sidewalls 14A, 14B and 14C has a thickness of 1.0 mm, and a height, i.e., the distance between parallel sides 14a and 14b is 4.0 mm. Further, the distance between adjacent two sidewalls 14A, i.e., the width of the waveguide 17A, and the distance between the sidewall 14B and the sidewall 14C, i.e., the width of the waveguide 17B are both 17 mm.
The spot welding between the upper side 14a of ;~
3 ~i ~
each sidewall and the radiation plate 15 is made prefer-ably by laser spot welding. The top surface of the radiation plate 15 is irradiated with a YAG laser beam having a wavelength of approximately 1.06 ~m at energy of approximately 8 joules (Kw-msec), thereby to spot weld the radiation plate to the upper side of the sidewall at intervals of 2.5 mm pitch.
When an electromagnetic wave of 11.85 GHz is supplied to the antenna 11, the electromagnetic wave is transmitted outside through the feed waveguide 17B, the gaps 20, the radiation waveguides 17A and the slots 16.
In an antenna of a waveguide structure and a method of manufacturing the same according to the present invention, since the sidewalls and the radiation plate are connected fixedly to each other by laser welding, it is possible to connect the main body and the radiation plate fixedly to each other with a small amount of weld metal. Accordingly, production steps are reduced and the sidewalls and the radiation plate can be made thinner as compared with a conventional method such as screw clamping, so that it is possible to make a lightweight antenna at a low price. Further, since the sidewalls are formed thin with less deformation in connection between the sidewalls and the radiation . plate, the flatness of the internal surface of the 21~0360 waveguide is high and the transmission loss of the electromagnetic wave is small.

Each sidewall includes upper and lower sides 4a and 4b parallel to a longitudinal direction, and the lower side 4b is integrally connected to the bottom plate 3 so as to hold the sidewall perpendicular to the bottom plate. As shown in Fig. 2, the sidewalls 4A are arranged parallel to one another, and include long sidewalls and short sidewalls disposed alternately one another. The sidewalls 4B are arranged along a traverse direction at a right angle to the longitudinal direction of each sidewall 4A with predetermined intervals between them, and the central part of each sidewall 4B is integrally connected to an end portion of the elongated sidewall 4A. The sidewall 4C is arranged parallel to the sidewalls 4B.
The radiation plate 5 is made of a flat plate ~1~03~
of aluminum and arranged parallel to the bottom plate 3 so as to provide a space between the bottom plate 3 and the radiation plate 5. One surface of the radiation plate 5 is fixed to the upper sides 4a of the sidewalls 4A, 4B and 4C at a plurality of points by spot welding.
With this, the space between the bottom plate 3 and the radiation plate 5 is separated by the sidewalls into a plurality of waveguides communicated mutually with each other and disposed in predetermined pattern. Namely, radiation waveguides 7A parallel to one another are formed each defined by two adjacent sidewalls 4A, the bottom plate 3 and the radiation plate 5, and a feed waveguide 7B extending in a direction at a right angle with the radiation waveguides is formed between the sidewalls 4B and the sidewall 4C. The feed waveguide 7B
is branched into adjacent two of the radiation wave-guides 7A through each gap 18, thus forming a ~ branch.
Cross slots 6 are formed at a part of the radiation plate 5 facing to each of the radiation waveguides 7A
with predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direc-tion of the waveguide. Further, inductive posts 10 are provided at positions on the bottom plate 3 facing to the feed waveguide 7B corresponding to the ~ branches.
These posts 10 are made of aluminum integrally with the bottom plate 3. The radiation waveguide, the feed waveguide, the inductive post, the ~ branch and the cross slot described above are all well known. Since detailed description thereof is made in the document (4) ~14~36~
mentioned above, it is requested to refer to the same.
The thickness of the bottom plate 3 is 1.5 mm, and the thickness of the radiation plate 5 is 0.3 mm.
Each of the sidewalls 4A, 4B and 4C has a thickness of 1.0 mm, and a height, i.e., the distance between parallel sides 4a and 4b of 4.0 mm. Further, the distance between adjacent two sidewalls 4A, i.e., the width of the radiation waveguide 7A is 17 mm, and the distance between the sidewall 4B and the sidewall 4C, i.e., the width of the feed waveguide 7B is 34 mm.
The spot welding between the upper side 4a of each sidewall and the radiation plate 5 is made preferably by laser spot welding. The upper surface of the radiation plate 5 is irradiated with energy of 8 joules (Kw-msec) of YAG laser having the wavelength of 1.06 ~m, thereby to spot weld the radiation plate to the upper side of the sidewall at intervals of 2.5 mm pitch.
As shown in Fig. 4, the part irradiated with laser is melt so as to form a weld metal 8 thereby connecting fixedly the upper side 4a of the sidewall 4A to the radiation plate 5.
When an electromagnetic wave of 11.85 GHz is supplied to the antenna 1, the electromagnetic wave is transmitted outside through the feed waveguide 7B, the gaps 18, the radiation waveguides 7A and the slots 6.
Fig. 5 shows a typical section of a weld when welding is made by another spot welding method. In this spot welding, a dent 9 having a conical section is ~ ~ ~ Q 3 6 ~ ' formed by punching in advance at an upper portion of the radiation plate 5 opposite to the spot-welding position and the spot-welding is applied to the portion of the dent 9. In this case, the applied power of the laser is decreased, and it is possible to prevent excessive weld metal 8 from swelling on the upper surface of the radiation plate as shown in Fig. 4.
Next, another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Fig. 6 and Fig. 7.
In this embodiment, an antenna 11 of a waveguide structure also includes a main body 12 and a radiation plate 15 made principally of aluminum like in the embodiment shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2. The main body 12 is provided with a flat bottom plate 13 and a plurality of substantially rectangular elongated thin sidewalls 14A, 14B and 14C. The bottom plate 13 and the sidewalls 14A, 14B and 14C are made of aluminum in one block by casting, e.g., by a die casting method.
Each sidewall includes upper and lower sides 14a and 14b parallel to each other in the longitudinal direction, and the lower side 14b is integrally connected to the bottom plate 13 in a block so as to hold the sidewall perpendicularly the bottom plate.
The sidewalls 14A are arranged parallel to one another in the longitudinal direction with predetermined intervals, as shown in Fig. 7. The sidewalls 14B are arranged along a direction being at a right angle to the longitudinal direction of the sidewalls 14A
3 ~
with predetermined gaps 20 therebetween. The central part of each sidewall 14B is integrally fixed to the end portion of one sidewall 14A. The sidewall 14C is arranged parallel to the sidewalls 14B.
The radiation plate 15 is made of a flat aluminum plate and arranged parallel to the bottom plate 13, and one surface thereof is fixed to the upper sides 14a of the sidewalls 14A, 14B and 14C by spot welding.
With this, a radiation waveguide 17A is defined by adjacent two sidewalls 14A, the bottom plate 13 and the radiation plate 15, and a feed waveguide 17B is formed between the sidewalls 14B and the sidewall 14C. The feed waveguide 17B communicates with the radiation waveguides 17A through gaps 20, respectively. Cross slots 16 are formed at predetermined intervals along two lines in the longitudinal direction of the waveguide at a part of the radiation plate 15 facing each radiation waveguide 17A.
The thickness of the bottom plate 13 is 1.5 mm, and the thickness of the radiation plate 15 is 0.3 mm. Each of the sidewalls 14A, 14B and 14C has a thickness of 1.0 mm, and a height, i.e., the distance between parallel sides 14a and 14b is 4.0 mm. Further, the distance between adjacent two sidewalls 14A, i.e., the width of the waveguide 17A, and the distance between the sidewall 14B and the sidewall 14C, i.e., the width of the waveguide 17B are both 17 mm.
The spot welding between the upper side 14a of ;~
3 ~i ~
each sidewall and the radiation plate 15 is made prefer-ably by laser spot welding. The top surface of the radiation plate 15 is irradiated with a YAG laser beam having a wavelength of approximately 1.06 ~m at energy of approximately 8 joules (Kw-msec), thereby to spot weld the radiation plate to the upper side of the sidewall at intervals of 2.5 mm pitch.
When an electromagnetic wave of 11.85 GHz is supplied to the antenna 11, the electromagnetic wave is transmitted outside through the feed waveguide 17B, the gaps 20, the radiation waveguides 17A and the slots 16.
In an antenna of a waveguide structure and a method of manufacturing the same according to the present invention, since the sidewalls and the radiation plate are connected fixedly to each other by laser welding, it is possible to connect the main body and the radiation plate fixedly to each other with a small amount of weld metal. Accordingly, production steps are reduced and the sidewalls and the radiation plate can be made thinner as compared with a conventional method such as screw clamping, so that it is possible to make a lightweight antenna at a low price. Further, since the sidewalls are formed thin with less deformation in connection between the sidewalls and the radiation . plate, the flatness of the internal surface of the 21~0360 waveguide is high and the transmission loss of the electromagnetic wave is small.
