Constructional arrangement applied in a sound panel

Description

1 / 4 CONSTRUCTIONAL ARRANGEMENT APPLIED TO A SOUND SYSTEM. BRIEF SUMMARY AND FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[001] This utility model patent application describes a constructive arrangement for finishing (painting on canvas, fabric, etc.) a painting and decoration frame capable of emitting sounds, without power limitation, and with greater power in stereo from the use of at least one amplifier, particularly in the environment where it will be hung, providing the experience and perception of immersion in the emitted sound, as well as concealment of the sound-producing devices. The invention may be presented in two forms, namely: passive - without amplifier and active - with an ultra-thin amplifier. Field of application in acoustic engineering, architecture, interior design and decoration. Fundamentals and State of the Art

[002] This utility model application relates to a constructive arrangement for accommodating a painting frame, with dimensions as shown herein, in which the sound is emitted behind the frame and dispersed in the displacement (also known as offset) between the frame and the molding. The sound is produced thanks to a speaker system that balances bass and treble sounds, a sound amplifier for adjustment, a Bluetooth and Wi-Fi module for connecting to electronic devices such as smartphones and computers, and a power supply.

[003] The state-of-the-art document BR 20 2024 004109 2, not yet published, but already granted a patent on 05 / 28 / 2024, entitled 'CONSTRUCTIVE ARRANGEMENT APPLIED TO DECORATIVE OR NON-DECORATIVE OBJECTS WITH SOUND' which in its description states: “This is a product related to the audio technology and interior design sector, more particularly, used in residential, commercial and exhibition environments. This utility model patent application refers to a sound system (1) configured by an ultra-thin module (2) that redefines the integration of sound in decorative and functional objects. The ultra-thin module (2) is composed of its ability to integrate discreetly, possessing a high-definition transducer (3) for exceptional clarity and precision sound reproduction, Petition 870250012907, dated 02 / 17 / 2025, page 6 / 24 2 / 4 possessing a wide sound spectrum, from the lowest to the highest frequencies. It also incorporates an audio amplifier (4) that employs digital signal amplification technologies, optimizing sound quality. The multifunctional wireless connectivity module (5), supporting Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, facilitates connection with various devices, allowing high-quality audio transmission. Additionally, a subwoofer (β) is integrated to enrich low frequencies, ensuring a rich sound base. Thus, the sound system (1) allows for an immersive listening experience without structural alterations to the objects where it is incorporated, promoting a fusion between art, design, and sound technology.” In this state-of-the-art document, due to its construction, the amplification of the sound effect is restricted, given its lower power. Thus, in various locations, such as halls, art galleries, and similar spaces, the stereo / mono effect has lower power. FROM THE UTILITY MODEL

[004] This utility model application describes a constructive module for accommodating paintings or similar items, equipped with means for coupling and decoupling said paintings, a thin layer of expandable PVC for finishing, speakers and subwoofer to balance bass and treble sounds, and an amplifier and transducer to complement the construction. The highlight of this module is that it is installed inside an external box, or frame, which will distribute the sound more cleanly into the environment without obstruction to muffle the sound, so that the user has a deep immersion experience of the sound generated inside the painting. Furthermore, this new constructive design, due to the use of at least one amplifier on each side, provides more power and, consequently, higher quality in the stereo effect, potentially providing a sound system for large gatherings.

DETAILED TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

[006] CONSTRUCTIONAL ARRANGEMENT APPLIED IN SOUND PANEL This is a module (1) composed of transducers (2) and subwoofer (3), at least one sound amplifier, or multi-connectivity module (5) for Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, power supply (6), thin layer (7) of expandable PVC with means (8) for fixing frames (Q) and external frame (M), for discreet finishing. The means or fixing elements (8) can be selected from magnets, clips, glues and the like.

[007] The invention may also contain a device which, when applied to a wall or similar, gives the appearance of 'floating', composed of inverted “L” shaped elements (4), of the ‘helping hand’ type, at one upper end of the device, while at the opposite end a support and contact element (4’) with the wall is applied along its entire length.

[008] More specifically, the module (1) is provided with perimeter walls (T), the front portion (F) of this module (1) being accommodated transducers (2) and subwoofer (3), received by a perimeter support (1”) for locking the module (1) and for Petition 870250012907, dated 02 / 17 / 2025, page 8 / 24 4 / 4 receiving a thin layer (7) of expanding PVC; on the upper face where the thin layer (7) of expanding PVC is located, the means or fixing elements (8) are allocated in the respective corners for the function of fixing the painting / decoration frame (Q) to be hung; whereas, on the front of the thin layer (7), the finishing element (9) is presented, such as, for example, canvas for painting, fabrics or similar.

[009] This module (1) is installed inside an external frame (M), with a hole (O) in the back for passing the power supply cable (6), and this frame has an offset (X) so that the sound waves can travel without obstruction, resulting in clear sound, as well as a discreet and subtle finish due to the position of the frame (M) being flush with the wall, concealing the origin of the sound.

[010] This patent has a construction variation (A) for larger painting / decoration frames (Q), simply by adding another module (1) with only transducers (2) and subwoofer (3), as the electronic components have expandability for another set of these.

[011] In a constructive variant, next to the thin layer (7) with the finishing element (9), the model may have, in relation to the outer frame (M), a recessed surrounding area (10).

[012] The document to be applied for as a utility model patent aims to combine the art of architecture with acoustic engineering, providing an immersive sound experience without visible sound equipment, as well as beautifying the environment where it will be installed with paintings, and also immortalizing moments with photographs.
