Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a transmission mechanism for a base station antenna, and a base station antenna including the transmission mechanism. The transmission mechanism includes a motor and at least one connecting rod, wherein a gear mechanism is provided on a first end of the connecting rod, and the motor drives the connecting rod to rotate via the gear mechanism; and wherein a worm gear unit is provided on a second end of the connecting rod opposite to the first end, and the worm gear unit is configured to drive a movable element of a phase shifter when the connecting rod rotates. The transmission mechanism according to the present disclosure can generate greater driving force through the worm gear unit, and has a shorter axial length and a smaller height, and thus is particularly suitable for a more compact and thinner 5G base station antenna.
