Antenna device and electronic apparatus
An antenna device includes an antenna coil, a magnetic sheet, and a metallic member. The antenna coil is formed on a flexible base. The antenna coil is wound into a loop or a spiral in which a winding central portion is a coil opening portion. The magnetic sheet is disposed at a back surface of the flexible base. A square opening is formed in the metallic member. The antenna coil is exposed from the opening of the metallic member. A first side of the antenna coil is hidden by the metallic member and part of the coil opening portion and a second side are exposed from the opening, so that a magnetic flux links with the second side.
1. An antenna device comprising
an antenna coil and a metallic member,
the antenna coil being wound into a loop or a spiral in which a winding central portion is a coil opening portion, the antenna coil including a first portion and a second portion opposing the first portion which are positioned at opposite sides of the coil opening portion,
the metallic member being disposed so as to cover part of the antenna coil,
the metallic member having an opening, and
wherein, as viewed in a direction perpendicular to the opening of the metallic member, the first portion of the antenna coil is not exposed from the opening of the metallic member, and at least part of the coil opening portion and the second portion of the antenna coil are exposed from the opening of the metallic member,
wherein a center of the coil opening portion is deviated from a center of the opening of the metallic member in plan view in the direction perpendicular to the opening of the metallic member.
2. The antenna device according to claim 1 , wherein, as viewed in the direction perpendicular to the opening of the metallic member, a magnetic sheet that extends over substantially an entire region of an inner side of the opening is disposed along the antenna coil.
3. The antenna device according to claim 2 , wherein the magnetic sheet is disposed in a range in which the magnetic sheet does not protrude outward from the inner side of the opening as viewed in the direction perpendicular to the opening of the metallic member.
4. The antenna device according to claim 1 , wherein the second portion of the antenna coil is disposed so as to pass the center or a vicinity of the center of the opening as viewed in the direction perpendicular to the opening of the metallic member.
5. The antenna device according to any claim 1 , wherein only the second portion of the antenna coil is exposed from the opening as viewed in the direction perpendicular to the opening of the metallic member.
6. The antenna device according to claim 1 , wherein a hole is formed in a magnetic sheet within the coil opening portion as viewed in the direction perpendicular to the opening of the metallic member.
7. The antenna device according to claim 1 , wherein the antenna coil includes a curved portion.
8. The antenna device according to claim 1 , wherein the opening of the metallic member includes two axes that are orthogonal to each other, and a winding center of the antenna coil is displaced from the center of the opening in directions of the two axes.
9. An antenna device comprising the antenna coil according to claim 1 , a magnetic sheet, and a metallic member,
wherein the antenna coil forms at least part of a resonance circuit, and
wherein an excitation coil that electromagnetically couples with the antenna coil is provided.
10. An electronic apparatus comprising the antenna device according to claim 1 and a housing, wherein the metallic member is part of the housing.
