Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an installation structure of an outdoor communication device, and more particularly to an installation structure of an outdoor communication device having excellent maintainability and pleasing external appearance which is fit to be installed in a place where a pleasing appearance is required as an important factor, such as a public place or a town which is constructed according to a well prepared development plan.
  • an outdoor communication device to be installed outdoors is generally installed in a public place, its exterior appearance is a matter of importance. Further, in the case that the outdoor communication device is installed in an existing town which has been designed according to an integrated development plan, the outdoor communication device needs to have an appearance in keeping with its environment.
  • a communication device 1X is mounted on a base plate 10X by means of screws and fixed to a utility pole or telephone pole 5X by means of a metal fixture 11X provided on the base plate 10X. Or, in some cases, a metal fixture is mounted directly to the communication device, without providing a base plate.
  • a wiring 13X is drawn out of a hole in the outside surface of the communication device 1X and fixed to the utility pole or the telephone pole 5X by a fixing band 12, the wiring 13X being exposed to the outside.
  • the communication devises and mounting poles are designed without paying special attention to their appearance, and hence wiring is exposed and visible, often spoiling the surrounding visual environment.
  • utility cables are buried in the ground and there are no telephone or other utility poles permitted so that the installation space for the communication devices is limited. Therefore, if the communication devices are installed after the town is completed, the appearance of the environment will be impaired.
  • JP 6-053894 describes a radio base station for mobile communication in which the radio base station is provided within a pole with a strut for supporting a street lamp.
  • the base station has a body part fixed to the inside of the strut.
  • JP 4-238424 describes a cellular zone system in which a base station antenna is fitted to a telephone box.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide an installation structure of an outdoor communication device which has excellent maintainability and accords with the surroundings.
  • the present invention provides an installation structure of an outdoor communication device comprising an outdoor communication device and a mounting part, wherein said outdoor communication device is connected to said mounting part by means of a connector, and said mounting part has a streetlight unit and is attached to a pole having a further function, for example a utility pole or a telephone pole.
  • the present invention provides an installation structure of an outdoor communication device comprising an outdoor communication device and a mounting device, wherein said outdoor communication device is connected with said mounting part by means of a connector, and said mounting part is installed on the top of a telephone booth so as to be integral with said telephone booth.

  • a streetlight unit may be provided on the top of the mounting pole to imitate a streetlight.
  • the mounting pole of the present invention can be installed in the street without compromising the appearance of the street, particularly in an urban development subject to street planning restrictions.
  • the mounting part even when a space for installing the mounting part cannot be obtained and the mounting part has to be installed on existing facilities, it is possible to attach the mounting part to an existing utility pole or a telephone pole in imitation of a streetlight mounted on the existing pole or to install the mounting part on an existing telephone booth so as to be integrated thereinto, thereby integrating the outdoor communication device into the environment.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an installation structure of a conventional communication device.
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective-view showing an installation structure with reference to outdoor communication device.
  • FIG. 3 is an enlarged view showing principal parts of the outdoor communication device of FIG. 1 before it is assembled.
  • FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing a first embodiment of an installation structure with respect to the outdoor communication device of the present invention.
  • FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing a second embodiment of an installation structure with respect to the outdoor communication device of the present invention.
  • FIG. 6 is a perspective view showing a third embodiment of an installation structure with respect to the outdoor communication device of the present invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a general perspective view showing an installation structure with respect to outdoor communication device.
  • FIG. 3 is an enlarged view showing the upper part of a mounting pole before the communication device of FIG. 2 is mounted thereon.
  • a mounting pole 2a is independently installed on a spot in a park or a road where appearance is an important factor.
  • the mounting pole 2a is a hollow pole in the form of an selfsupported pole and is provided with a communication device mounting part 9a on the top thereof.
  • Communication device 1a for outdoor use is mounted on the communication device mounting part 9a of the mounting pole 2a by fitting it releasably into the mounting part 9a.
  • the mounting pole 2a has wirings 10a laid from the outside into the interior thereof to connect the wiring 10a to the communication device 1a through a connector.
  • the communication device 1a has an antenna 3a provided directly on the top thereof, and is mounted by being fitted releasably in a groove of the communication device mounting part 9a provided on the top of the mounting pole 2a.
  • the communication device 1a has a connector 7a and is electrically connected with the outside device through the connector 7a without exposing any wirings thereof to the outside.
  • the communication device mounting part 9a of the mounting pole 2a there is provided a connector 8a at a suitable position so as to be coupled with the connector 7a, and the wirings 10a from the connector 8a to the outside device are all laid through the interior of the mounting pole 2a. Therefore, the wirings 10a are not exposed to the outside.
  • the wirings 10a are connected to the outside device through the interior of the mounting pole 2a and the ground to output signals received by the communication device 1a to outside device or to receive communication signals or power source signals transmitted from the outside.
  • the communication device 1a By moving the communication device 1a in the direction of an arrow in FIG. 3, the communication device 1a can be mounted to the communication device mounting part 9a and the connector 7a can also be fitted in the connector 8a at the same time.
  • This communication device 1a is, for example, a simplified portable telephone base station for radio communication.
  • FIG. 4 is a general perspective view showing a first embodiment of the installation structure with respect to the outdoor communication device of the present invention.
  • the mounting pole 2b since the mounting pole 2b has a selfsupported streetlight-like configuration in imitation of a streetlight, with a streetlight unit 4b being mounted on the mounting pole 2b, the mounting pole 2b may accord with the environment.
  • the communication device 1b with an antenna 3b is releasably mounted on the mounting pole 2b.
  • the present embodiment is constituted in the same way as the arrangement described with reference to Figures 2 and 3.
  • the mounting part and the communication device are connected by means of a connector in such a manner that the communication device can easily be releasably mounted to the mounting part and hence the communication device can be installed in an elevated spot. Therefore, an antenna which needs to be installed in the elevated spot can be mounted directly on the communication device thereby eliminating wirings between the antenna and the outdoor communication device, with a result that signal transmission loss due to wirings is eliminated, and signal loss or transmission loss of the communication device due to the wirings can be reduced.
