Abstract

The present invention discloses a wireless device, which includes a housing and a printed circuit board (PCB). The housing has an opening at one end, and includes at least one antenna each formed on one side of the housing. The PCB, disposed inside the housing, includes a plurality of contacts, formed on both sides of the PCB, for coupling to the at least one antenna such that vertical position of the PCB is fixed by the at least one antenna. The housing and the PCB further form a connector of the wireless device at the opening.

Claims (20)

1 . A wireless device comprising:

a housing, having an opening at one end, comprising at least one antenna, wherein the at least one antenna is formed on one side of the housing; and

a printed circuit board (PCB), disposed inside the housing, comprising a plurality of contacts for coupling to the at least one antenna;

wherein the housing and the PCB further form a connector of the wireless device at the opening.

2 . The wireless device of claim 1 , wherein each of the at least one antenna comprises a radiator, a feeding terminal and a grounding terminal, and the feeding terminal and the grounding terminal are extended from the housing to one side of the PCB for coupling to the plurality of contacts of the PCB, respectively.

3 . The wireless device of claim 1 , wherein the housing further comprises a plurality of stops, formed at an end opposite to the opening, for constraining movement of the PCB.

4 . The wireless device of claim 1 , wherein the housing further comprises at least one gouge, for facilitating welding the at least one antenna to the plurality of contacts of the PCB.

5 . The wireless device of claim 1 , wherein the PCB further comprises a plurality of connecting pads for receiving or transmitting signals.

6 . The wireless device of claim 1 , wherein the number of the at least one antenna is two, and the two antennas are formed on opposite sides of the housing.

7 . The wireless device of claim 1 is a wireless USB device.

8 . A method for manufacturing a wireless device, the method comprising:

providing a housing having an opening at one end and comprising at least one antenna each formed on one side of the housing; and

inserting a printed circuit board (PCB) into the housing, the PCB comprising a plurality of contacts, formed on both sides of the PCB, for coupling to the at least one antenna;

wherein the housing and the PCB further form a connector of the wireless device at the opening.

9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein each of the at least one antenna comprises a radiator, a feeding terminal and a grounding terminal, and the feeding terminal and the grounding terminal are extended from the housing to one side of the PCB for coupling to the plurality of contacts of the PCB, respectively.

10 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the housing further comprises a plurality of stops, formed at an end opposite to the opening, for constraining movement of the PCB.

11 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the housing further comprises at least one gouge, for facilitating welding the at least one antenna to the plurality of contacts of the PCB.

12 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the PCB further comprises a plurality of connecting pads for receiving or transmitting signals.

13 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the number of the at least one antenna is two, and the two antennas are formed on opposite sides of the housing.

14 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the wireless device is a wireless USB device.
