This invention is to provide an angle adjusting mechanism for an antenna to be used to connect between an antenna and its casing. The angle adjusting mechanism includes a casing provided with a pivoting recess, an antenna provided with a connecting sleeve, and a linking member which has a hollow body and a first, second and third pivoting sleeves formed in T-shape. The first pivoting sleeve is pivotably connected to the connecting sleeve of the antenna; the second and third pivoting sleeves are pivotably connected to the pivoting portion of the casing. The characteristics of this is that each of the first, second, and third pivoting sleeves of the linking member is provided with a slotted or split free end and a resilient tab through which to achieve an resilient design. When connecting the linking member between the antenna and the casing, the resilience of the mechanism per se provides a damping effect capable of retaining the antenna at any desired angular position without the necessity of installing any extra parts such as O rings.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.]1. An angle adjusting mechanism for an antenna adapted to connect the antenna to its casing, comprising:a pivoting portion provided in the casing;a connecting sleeve provided in the antenna; anda linking member having a hollow body, a first pivoting sleeve, a second pivoting sleeve, and a third pivoting sleeve, with said first, second and third pivoting sleeves being integrally attached to said hollow body, and with said second and third pivoting sleeves being aligned with each other and substantially perpendicular to said first pivoting sleeve to form a generally T-shape; said first pivoting sleeve being connected, at the free end thereof, to said connecting sleeve of said antenna, and said second and third pivoting sleeves being pivotably connected, at respective free end thereof, to said pivoting portion of the casing so that the antenna may be pivotably connected to the casing through said linking member;characterized in that each of said first, second, and third pivoting sleeves of said linking member is provided with a split or slotted free end and resilient tabs for pressing against the portions connected with said first, second, and third pivoting sleeves in an assembled state so that said first, second, and third pivoting sleeves may be connected to said connecting sleeve of the antenna and said pivoting portion of the casing in a resilient manner.
