Description

ANTENNE RELAIS AUTOPORTANTE SELF-SUPPORTING RELAY ANTENNA
L'invention concerne une antenne-relais de réseau de télécommunication.The invention relates to a telecommunication network relay antenna.
Dans l'art antérieur, il est connu des antennes-relais composées d'un élément rayonnant émetteur/récepteur protégé, notamment vis-à-vis des agents atmosphériques, par un radome. Lors de leur installation, les antennes sont disposées sur un mât support afin d'augmenter leur couverture. Pour des raisons de sécurité lors des interventions de maintenance, des échelles sont fixées sur le mât. En outre, le mât possède des bracons de renfort afin de supporter le poids d'un opérateur.In the prior art, relay antennas composed of a radiating emitter / receiver element protected, particularly with respect to atmospheric agents, by a radome are known. During their installation, the antennas are arranged on a support mast in order to increase their coverage. For safety reasons during maintenance operations, ladders are fixed on the mast. In addition, the mast has reinforcing braces to support the weight of an operator.
Par conséquent, l'aspect des installations de l'art antérieur est inesthétique en raison de la structure métallique apparente. Afin de réduire l'impact visuel de ces installations, des camouflages de différentes formes ont été proposés.Therefore, the appearance of the prior art installations is unsightly because of the apparent metal structure. In order to reduce the visual impact of these installations, camouflages of different shapes have been proposed.
Cependant, la fabrication et l'installation de ce type d'installation comportant une antenne, un mât et un dispositif de camouflage sont longues et coûteuses en raison du grand nombre de composants utilisés. De plus, le poids de l'installation ainsi réalisée est important.However, the manufacture and installation of this type of installation comprising an antenna, a mast and a camouflage device are long and expensive because of the large number of components used. In addition, the weight of the installation thus produced is important.
L'invention vise à remédier à ces problèmes en proposant une antenne-relais de réseau de télécommunication qui soit simple, légère, rapide à installer, nécessite un nombre restreint d'éléments et s'intègre parfaitement à l'environnement.The invention aims to remedy these problems by providing a telecommunication network relay antenna that is simple, lightweight, quick to install, requires a small number of elements and integrates perfectly with the environment.
A cet effet, et selon un premier aspect, l'invention propose une antenne-relais de réseau de télécommunication comprenant : - au moins un élément rayonnant émetteur et/ou récepteur,For this purpose, and according to a first aspect, the invention proposes a telecommunication network relay antenna comprising: at least one transmitting and / or receiving radiating element,
- un radome transparent aux ondes électromagnétiques et recouvrant l'élément rayonnant émetteur et/ou récepteur de façon à le protéger. L'élément rayonnant est supporté par le radome et ledit radome possède des moyens d'ancrage permettant la fixation de l'antenne au sol.- A radome transparent to electromagnetic waves and covering the radiating element emitter and / or receiver so as to protect it. The radiating element is supported by the radome and said radome has anchoring means for fixing the antenna to the ground.
L'antenne est simple et rapide à installer car le radome qui est surdimensionné remplace le mât en supportant l'élément rayonnant et en permettant la fixation de l'antenne. On peut ainsi parler d'antenne autoportante.The antenna is simple and quick to install because the radome which is oversized replaces the mast supporting the radiating element and allowing the attachment of the antenna. We can speak of a freestanding antenna.
De plus, le radome possède une bonne résistance à l'environnement extérieur et permet d'améliorer la durée de vie de l'élément rayonnant. Ainsi, les opérations de maintenance sont limitées. En outre, le radome possède un trou d'inspection accessible à hauteur d'homme qui permet les opérations de maintenance.In addition, the radome has good resistance to the external environment and improves the life of the radiating element. Thus, maintenance operations are limited. In addition, the radome has an inspection hole accessible to the height of man that allows maintenance operations.
Enfin, l'antenne ne nécessite pas de dispositif de camouflage supplémentaire car le radome permet de camoufler l'élément rayonnant. En effet, le radome peut posséder, selon les différents modes de réalisation de l'invention, une forme de cheminée carrée ou ronde, de pinacle, d'arbuste ou de plante.Finally, the antenna does not require additional camouflage device because the radome can hide the radiating element. Indeed, the radome may have, according to different embodiments of the invention, a square or round chimney shape, pinnacle, shrub or plant.

Tel qu'il est représenté sur la figure 1, l'antenne 1 comprend un élément rayonnant émetteur et/ou récepteur 2 et un radome 3. Le radome 3 est transparent aux ondes électromagnétiques et permet de protéger l'élément rayonnant 2, notamment contre les agents atmosphériques.As shown in FIG. 1, the antenna 1 comprises a radiating emitter and / or receiver element 2 and a radome 3. The radome 3 is transparent to the electromagnetic waves and makes it possible to protect the radiating element 2, in particular against atmospheric agents.
Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, le radome 3 est réalisé en polyester stratifié. L'élément rayonnant 2 est réalisé en laiton et des réflecteurs en aluminium permettent d'orienter le faisceau de rayonnement.In a preferred embodiment, the radome 3 is made of laminated polyester. The radiating element 2 is made of brass and aluminum reflectors are used to orient the radiation beam.
Le radome 3 possède des moyens d'ancrage permettant la fixation de l'antenne 1 au sol. Les moyens d'ancrage sont composés d'un piètement 15 et d'organes de fixation (non représentés). Le piètement 15 est disposé sur l'extrémité inférieure du radome 3 et possède des orifices 18 dans lesquels les organes de fixation sont destinés à être introduit. Les orifices 18 sont espacés régulièrement sur le piètement d'un angle θ.The radome 3 has anchoring means for fixing the antenna 1 to the ground. The anchoring means are composed of a base 15 and fasteners (not shown). The base 15 is disposed on the lower end of the radome 3 and has orifices 18 in which the fasteners are intended to be introduced. The orifices 18 are spaced regularly on the base of an angle θ.
Les moyens d'ancrage sont destinés à être fixés à une interface de fixation 16 représentée sur la figure 6. L'interface de fixation 16 possède quatre trous 17a, 17b, 17c, 17d formant un carré. Avantageusement, l'interface de fixation 17 est préalablement fixée sur un plot métallique non représenté.The anchoring means are intended to be fixed to an attachment interface 16 shown in FIG. 6. The attachment interface 16 has four holes 17a, 17b, 17c, 17d forming a square. Advantageously, the fixing interface 17 is previously fixed on a metal stud not shown.
Pour fixer le radome 3, on oriente la direction de l'élément émetteur et/ou récepteur puis on fait correspondre quatre orifices 18 du piètement 15 avec les quatre trous 17a, 17b, 17c, 17d de l'organe de fixation. Les organes de fixation, des boulons par exemple, sont alors mis en place dans les trous 17a, 17b, 17c, 17d de l'organe de fixation et dans les orifices 18. Ainsi, il est possible d'effectuer un préréglage de la direction d'émission et/ou réception avec une erreur inférieure à θ.To fix the radome 3, the direction of the emitter and / or receiver element is oriented and then four holes 18 of the base 15 are made to correspond with the four holes 17a, 17b, 17c, 17d of the fastener. Fasteners, bolts for example, are then placed in the holes 17a, 17b, 17c, 17d of the fastener and in the orifices 18. Thus, it is possible to perform a presetting of the transmission and / or reception direction with an error less than θ.
L'élément rayonnant 2 est supporté par le radome 3. A cet effet, une platine 4 est solidaire de l'extrémité inférieure de l'élément rayonnant 2. Dans le mode de réalisation représenté, la platine 4 est solidarisée à l'élément rayonnant 2 au moyen d'une équerre de fixation 5. L'équerre de fixation 5 est fixée d'une part à l'élément rayonnant 2 et d'autre part à la platine 4. Un anneau 6 est solidaire du radome 3. L'anneau 6 supporte la platine 4 et permet par conséquent de supporter l'élément rayonnant 2.The radiating element 2 is supported by the radome 3. For this purpose, a plate 4 is secured to the lower end of the radiating element 2. In the embodiment shown, the plate 4 is secured to the radiating element 2 by means of a fixing bracket 5. The fixing bracket 5 is fixed on the one hand to the radiating element 2 and on the other hand to the plate 4. A ring 6 is integral with the radome 3. ring 6 supports the plate 4 and therefore supports the radiating element 2.
En outre, l'élément rayonnant 2 est solidaire d'un élément de centrage. Dans le mode de réalisation représenté, l'élément de centrage est un cône de centrage 7. Le cône de centrage 7 est solidarisé à l'élément rayonnant 2 au moyen d'une équerre de fixation 8. L'équerre de fixation 8 est fixée d'une part sur l'élément rayonnant 2 et d'autre part sur le cône de centrage 7. Le radome 3 possède une cavité 9 disposée sur son extrémité supérieure dont la forme est sensiblement complémentaire au cône de centrage 7. Le cône de centrage 7 coopère avec la cavité 9 de façon à centrer l'élément rayonnant 2 dans le radome 3.In addition, the radiating element 2 is integral with a centering element. In the embodiment shown, the centering element is a centering cone 7. The centering cone 7 is secured to the radiating element 2 by means of a fastening bracket 8. The fastening bracket 8 is fixed on the one hand on the radiating element 2 and on the other hand on the centering cone 7. The radome 3 has a cavity 9 disposed on its upper end whose shape is substantially complementary to the centering cone 7. The centering cone 7 cooperates with the cavity 9 so as to center the radiating element 2 in the radome 3.
Notons que l'élément de centrage peut être de forme différente et peut notamment être de forme sphérique.Note that the centering element may be of different shape and may in particular be of spherical shape.
L'élément rayonnant 2 est monté mobile en rotation par rapport au radome 3. Ainsi, la direction d'émission et/ou réception de l'élément émetteur et/ou récepteur 2 est réglable.The radiating element 2 is rotatably mounted relative to the radome 3. Thus, the direction of transmission and / or reception of the transmitter element and / or receiver 2 is adjustable.
A cet effet, le radome 3 possède un orifice de réglage 10 permettant l'introduction d'une barre de réglage 11. La barre de réglage 11 est solidarisable à l'élément rayonnant 2. Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, l'équerre de fixation 5 possède un orifice dans lequel la barre de réglage 11 peut être introduit. Ainsi, la barre de réglage 11 peut commander la rotation de l'élément rayonnant 2 de manière à régler la direction d'émission et/ou réception. Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, la barre de réglage permet de faire tourner l'élément rayonnant 2 de θ/2 dans les deux sens.For this purpose, the radome 3 has an adjustment orifice 10 allowing the introduction of an adjusting bar 11. The adjusting bar 11 is securable to the radiating element 2. In one embodiment of the invention, the The fixing bracket 5 has an orifice in which the adjusting bar 11 can be inserted. Thus, the adjusting bar 11 can control the rotation of the radiating element 2 so as to adjust the direction of transmission and / or reception. In one embodiment of the invention, the adjustment bar makes it possible to rotate the radiating element 2 of θ / 2 in both directions.
Notons que, avantageusement, une visée peut être installée sur la barre de réglage 11.Note that, advantageously, a target can be installed on the adjustment bar 11.
Lorsque la direction de l'élément rayonnant 2 est réglée, l'élément émetteur et/ou récepteur 2 peut être immobilisé au moyen d'un dispositif de blocage. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, le dispositif de blocage se compose d'un boulon de verrouillage 12 permettant de solidariser la platine 4 à l'anneau 6. A cet effet, la platine 4 et l'anneau 6 possèdent des orifices (non représentés) permettant le passage du boulon 12.When the direction of the radiating element 2 is set, the transmitter and / or receiver element 2 can be immobilized by means of a locking device. In a preferred embodiment, the locking device consists of a locking bolt 12 for securing the plate 4 to the ring 6. For this purpose, the plate 4 and the ring 6 have orifices (not shown ) allowing the passage of the bolt 12.
