Abstract

The disclosure provides a base station. The base station includes an enclosure including at least one pole connectable part to be connected to a communication pole, and an antenna assembly including an antenna for communication and combined with the enclosure. The enclosure further includes at least one antenna assembly combinable member to be combined with the antenna assembly. The antenna assembly is rotated at a predetermined angle on the at least one antenna assembly combinable member which operates as a pivot.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A base station comprising:
an enclosure including at least one pole connectable part to be connected to a communication pole; and an antenna assembly including an antenna for communication and combined with the enclosure, wherein the enclosure further includes at least one antenna assembly combinable member to be combined with the antenna assembly, and wherein the antenna assembly is rotated at a predetermined angle on the at least one antenna assembly combinable member which operates as a pivot.

2 . The base station of claim 1 , wherein the at least one antenna assembly combinable member comprises:
at least one upper antenna assembly combinable member disposed on at least one upper lateral side of the enclosure; and at least one lower antenna assembly combinable member disposed on at least one lower lateral side of the enclosure.

3 . The base station of claim 2 , further comprising:
at least one supporting member disposed between the at least one upper antenna assembly combinable member and the at least one lower antenna assembly combinable member and performing a function of maintaining a tilting angle of the antenna assembly from the enclosure.

4 . The base station of claim 3 ,
wherein the at least one supporting member includes a fastening protrusion joined to the enclosure and protruding toward the antenna assembly, and wherein the antenna assembly further includes an elongated hole formed at a position corresponding to a position of the fastening protrusion.

5 . The base station of claim 4 , wherein the at least one supporting member further comprises:
a washer engaged with the fastening protrusion; and a cover covering the fastening protrusion.

6 . The base station of claim 4 , wherein the elongated hole includes at least one stopper formed as an inwardly curved part.

7 . The base station of claim 6 , wherein the supporting member further includes an elastic part formed to elastically join the enclosure and the fastening protrusion.

8 . The base station of claim 4 , wherein a width of the elongated hole is widened gradually toward the communication pole to be connected to the enclosure.

9 . The base station of claim 1 , wherein the at least one antenna assembly combinable member comprises:
first and second upper antenna assembly combinable members disposed on upper lateral sides of the enclosure; and third and fourth lower antenna assembly combinable members disposed on lower lateral sides of the enclosure.

10 . The base station of claim 9 ,
wherein the first and second antenna assembly combinable members are disposed respectively on both upper lateral sides of the enclosure, and wherein the third and fourth antenna assembly combinable members are disposed respectively on both lower lateral sides of the enclosure.

11 . The base station of claim 10 , further comprising:
a first supporting member disposed between the first and third antenna assembly combinable members and performing a function of maintaining a tilting angle of the antenna assembly from the enclosure; and a second supporting member disposed between the second and fourth antenna assembly combinable members and performing the function of maintaining the tilting angle.

12 . The base station of claim 11 ,
wherein the first and second supporting members include first and second fastening protrusions, respectively, each joined to the enclosure and protruding toward the antenna assembly, and wherein the antenna assembly further includes first and second elongated holes formed respectively at positions corresponding to positions of the first and second fastening protrusions.

13 . The base station of claim 12 ,
wherein the first supporting member further includes a first washer engaged with the first fastening protrusion, and a first cover covering the first fastening protrusion, and wherein the second supporting member further includes a second washer engaged with the second fastening protrusion, and a second cover covering the second fastening protrusion.

14 . The base station of claim 12 , wherein each of the first and second elongated holes includes at least one stopper formed as an inwardly curved part.

15 . The base station of claim 14 ,
wherein the first supporting member further includes a first elastic part formed to elastically join the enclosure and the first fastening protrusion, and wherein the second supporting member further includes a second elastic part formed to elastically join the enclosure and the second fastening protrusion.

16 . The base station of claim 12 , wherein a width of each of the first and second elongated holes is widened gradually toward the communication pole to be connected to the enclosure.
