Abstract: An antenna having an elongated housing open at one end and defining an interior chamber. A telescoping mast has a carrier attached at a first end and a flexible antenna attached at its other end. The carrier with the attached mast and antenna is movable between a storage position in which the carrier, mast, and antenna are contained within the interior chamber of the housing, and a deployed position in which the mast and attached antenna protrude outwardly from the housing. A spring is positioned between the carrier and the housing which urges the carrier towards its deployed position. A catch mechanism selectively holds the carrier in its stored position and, when released, releases the spring to move the antenna to its deployed position.

Abstract translation: 一种具有细长壳体的天线，其在一端开口并限定内部腔室。 伸缩式桅杆具有附接在第一端的载体和在其另一端附接的柔性天线。 具有连接的桅杆和天线的载体可在载体，桅杆和天线容纳在壳体的内部室中的存储位置和展开位置之间移动，其中桅杆和连接的天线从壳体向外突出。 弹簧定位在载体和壳体之间，其将载体朝向其展开位置推动。 捕捉机构选择性地将载体保持在其存储位置，并且当释放时释放弹簧以将天线移动到其展开位置。
