Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of audio adapter technology, specifically to a Dante adapter with USB charging audio input and output. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of multimedia technology and the improvement of people's living standards, many consumer digital electronic products and professional multimedia engineering audio-visual equipment are now equipped with high-quality audio input / output interfaces. Passive audio adapters are a type of interface converter. In command and control centers, multi-functional halls, multimedia conference rooms, training centers, theaters, exhibitions, performances, and broadcasting, audio interfaces are diverse and of various types, requiring audio adapters for matching different audio signals. Currently, most audio adapters in these large venues are active devices, requiring an external power supply. Passive audio adapters, on the other hand, operate without power, fulfilling their primary functional requirements. However, many electronic devices on the market use switching power supplies, which have high power ripple coefficients, making audio signals susceptible to power supply common-mode noise interference and environmental electromagnetic radiation interference.

[0003] With the development of digitalization and networking in the audio and video industry, digital audio processing equipment is being used in more and more applications, and the application scenarios are becoming increasingly complex. As a result, the configuration of audio receiving and transmitting channels for digital audio processing equipment and systems can no longer be satisfied with a fixed and limited number.

[0017] Beneficial effects

[0018] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] (1) The Dante adapter with USB charging audio input and output is fixed at the usage point by the limiting suction cup. Then the adapter housing is inserted into the adapter slot so that the limiting groove and the limiting block are connected to each other, thereby fixing the adapter housing on the charging base. According to the usage needs, the corresponding connection port is pulled out so that the connection wire passes through the wire hole, thereby driving the winding shaft to rotate, which drives the second gear to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the second rack to move and squeeze the reset spring. When the connection port is pulled out, the reset spring automatically resets, thereby driving the second gear to rotate, so that the winding shaft automatically retracts the connection wire to prevent the connection wire from getting tangled.

[0020] (2) When the adapter needs to be charged, the first electromagnet and the second electromagnet are connected to the circuit at the same time. The first electromagnet is energized and has magnetism. The first electromagnet and the first magnet block generate a magnetic attraction, which causes the connecting long shaft to move along the movable long slot, thereby driving the adapter housing to move along the adapter slot, so that the USB port gradually approaches the USB connector.

[0021] (3) The Dante adapter with USB charging audio input and output has a second electromagnet that is energized and has magnetism. The second electromagnet and the second magnet block generate a magnetic attraction, which drives the first rack to move along the adjustment slot, thereby driving the first gear to rotate. The first gear drives the rotating shaft to rotate, thereby rotating the protective baffle to one side, so that the USB port and the USB connector are connected to each other. The adapter components are charged by the rechargeable battery, so that the adapter components can be used continuously.

[0022] Of course, any product implementing this invention does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-5 This invention provides a technical solution: a Dante adapter with USB charging audio input and output, including an adapter housing 1 and a charging base 2 mounted on the bottom surface of the adapter housing 1. A limiting suction cup 3 is installed on the bottom surface of the charging base 2. A rechargeable battery 30 is installed inside the charging base 2. A limiting mechanism is installed on the top surface of the charging base 2 to fix the adapter housing 1 to the top surface of the charging base 2.

A connecting wire 7 is installed on the outer surface of the adapter element 6. A winding mechanism is installed on the inner wall of the adapter housing 1 to organize the connecting wire 7.

[0032] Specifically, the limiting mechanism includes a limiting component and a connecting component. The limiting component is installed inside the charging base body, and the connecting component is installed outside the limiting component. The connecting component is used to connect with the adapter housing 1, and the limiting component is used to adjust the position of the adapter housing 1. The limiting component includes a connecting spring 10 and a first magnet block 11. An adapter groove 8 is opened on the top surface of the charging base 2, and a movable long groove 9 is opened on the inner wall of the adapter groove 8. The connecting spring 10 is installed on the inner wall of the movable long groove 9, and the first magnet block 11 is installed on the end surface of the connecting spring 10. A first electromagnet 31 is installed inside the charging base 2 outside the movable long groove 9. The limiting component is installed on one side surface of the first magnet block 11. When the adapter element 6 needs to be charged, the first electromagnet 31 and the second electromagnet 18 are connected to the circuit at the same time. The first electromagnet 31 is energized and has magnetism. A magnetic attraction is generated between the first electromagnet 31 and the first magnet block 11, causing the connecting long shaft 12 to move along the movable long groove 9, thereby driving the adapter housing 1 to move along the adapter groove 8, so that the USB port 5 gradually approaches the USB connector 4.

[0033] Furthermore, the limiting component includes a connecting long shaft 12 and a limiting block 13. The connecting long shaft 12 is installed on one side surface of the first magnet block 11, and the limiting block 13 is installed on the end surface of the connecting long shaft 12. A limiting groove 14 is formed on the outer surface of the adapter housing 1. The limiting groove 14 is in active contact with the limiting block 13. The charging base 2 is fixed at the usage point by the limiting suction cup 3. Then, the adapter housing 1 is inserted into the adapter slot 8, so that the limiting groove 14 and the limiting block 13 mate with each other, thereby fixing the adapter housing 1 on the charging base 2.

[0034] Furthermore, the protection system includes a protection component and a drive component. The protection component is installed on the outer surface of the adapter housing 1 outside the USB port 5, and the drive component is installed on the outer surface of the adapter housing 1. The protection component is used to prevent dust from entering the USB port 5, and the drive component is used to control the state of the protection component. The protection component includes a protection plate 16 and a first gear 17. A rotating shaft 15 is movably mounted on the outer surface of the adapter housing 1 outside the USB port 5. The protection plate 16 is installed on the outer surface of the rotating shaft 15, and one side surface of the protection plate 16 is in active contact with the USB port 5.

[0035] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes a second electromagnet 18 and a second magnet block 22. The second electromagnet 18 is mounted on the outer surface of the adapter housing 1. An adjustment slot 19 is formed on the outer surface of the adapter housing 1. A sliding block 20 is movably mounted on the inner wall of the adjustment slot 19. A first rack 21 is mounted on one side surface of the sliding block 20. The first rack 21 meshes with the first gear 17. The second magnet block 22 is mounted on one end surface of the first rack 21. A magnetic attraction is generated between the second electromagnet 18 and the second magnet block 22, which drives the first rack 21 to move along the adjustment slot 19, thereby driving the first gear 17 to rotate. The first gear 17 drives the rotating shaft 15 to rotate, thereby rotating the protective baffle to one side, so that the USB port 5 and the USB connector 4 are connected to each other. The adapter element 6 is charged by the rechargeable battery 30, so that the adapter element 6 can be used continuously.

[0036] Furthermore, the winding mechanism includes a fixed base 23 and a winding assembly. The fixed base 23 is installed on the inner wall of the adapter housing 1 outside the adapter element 6. The winding assembly is movably installed on the top surface of the fixed base 23. The winding assembly includes a winding shaft 24 and a second rack 27. The winding shaft 24 is movably installed on the top surface of the fixed base 23. The connecting wire 7 is movably wound on the outer surface of the winding shaft 24. A second gear 25 is fitted on the outer surface of the winding shaft 24. A return spring 26 is installed on the inner wall of the adapter housing 1. A second rack 27 is installed on the end surface of the return spring 26. The second rack 27 and the second gear 25 mesh with each other. When the connection port 29 is pulled out, the return spring 26 automatically resets, thereby driving the second gear 25 to rotate, so that the winding shaft 24 automatically retracts the connecting wire 7 to prevent the connecting wire 7 from tangling together.

[0037] Furthermore, the adapter housing 1 has a wire hole 28 inside, the outer surface of the connecting wire 7 is movably mounted on the inner wall of the wire hole 28, the end surface of the connecting wire 7 extends to the outside of the adapter housing 1, and the end of the connecting wire 7 is equipped with a connection port 29. According to the usage needs, the corresponding connection port 29 is pulled out so that the connecting wire 7 passes through the wire hole 28.

[0038] During use (operation), the charging base 2 is fixed at the usage point by the limiting suction cup 3, and then the adapter housing 1 is inserted into the adapter slot 8, so that the limiting groove 14 and the limiting block 13 are aligned with each other, thereby fixing the adapter housing 1 on the charging base 2. According to the usage needs, the corresponding connection port 29 is pulled out, so that the connection wire 7 passes through the wire hole 28, thereby driving the winding shaft 24 to rotate, which in turn drives the second gear 25 to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the second rack 27 to move and compress the reset spring 26. When the connection port 29 is pulled out, the reset spring 26 automatically resets, thereby driving the second gear 25 to rotate, so that the winding shaft 24 automatically retracts the connection wire 7 to prevent the connection wire 7 from getting tangled together.

[0039] When the adapter element 6 needs to be charged, the first electromagnet 31 and the second electromagnet 18 are connected to the circuit at the same time. The first electromagnet 31 is energized and has magnetism. The first electromagnet 31 and the first magnet block 11 generate a magnetic attraction, which causes the connecting long shaft 12 to move along the movable long groove 9, thereby driving the adapter housing 1 to move along the adapter groove 8, so that the USB port 5 gradually approaches the USB connector 4.

[0040] At the same time, the second electromagnet 18 is energized and becomes magnetic. The second electromagnet 18 and the second magnet block 22 generate a magnetic attraction, which drives the first rack 21 to move along the adjusting groove 19, thereby driving the first gear 17 to rotate. The first gear 17 drives the rotating shaft 15 to rotate, thereby rotating the protective baffle to one side, so that the USB port 5 and the USB connector 4 can be connected to each other. The adapter element 6 is charged by the rechargeable battery 30, so that the adapter element 6 can be used continuously.
