Detailed Implementation Methods
[0044] The present application will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0045] This application provides a method for protecting a coaxial loudspeaker, such as... Figure 1 As shown, a coaxial speaker can be a speaker that simultaneously drives both the woofer 1 and the tweeter 2 using a single power amplifier (PA). Protection methods for coaxial speakers include:
[0046] Temperature modeling is performed on tweeter 2 to obtain its voltage-temperature transfer function. Temperature and amplitude modeling is performed on woofer 1 to obtain its voltage, amplitude, and temperature transfer functions. The coaxial device is a combined device with tweeter 2 and woofer 1; modeling of the coaxial device is performed to obtain the heat conduction function between the coaxial devices. Modeling is performed on the coaxial device of tweeter 2 and woofer 1. The temperature of tweeter 2 at the next moment is predicted based on the temperature information fed back from the current of tweeter 2 at the previous moment, and the temperature of woofer 1 at the next moment is predicted based on the temperature information fed back from the current of woofer 1 at the previous moment. The output terminal of tweeter 2 is connected to the input terminal of woofer 1 to connect the tweeter protection and woofer protection in series. The target gain is obtained based on the original audio signal and the corresponding preset threshold, and the original audio signal is processed according to the target gain. The preset threshold is the maximum temperature of the coaxial speaker, and the target gain is the desired gain. For example, if the preset threshold of the coaxial speaker is 100 degrees and the predicted temperature of the coaxial speaker is about to reach 200 degrees, the original audio signal needs to be compressed by 70%, and the target gain is 70%.
[0047] In the method provided by the present invention, the tweeter 2 and the woofer 1 can be protected by feedback. The original audio signal is adjusted according to the target gain to reduce the load on the speaker, thereby reducing the possibility of the coaxial speaker overheating, thus protecting the coaxial speaker, reducing noise, and reducing the possibility of distortion in the coaxial speaker.
[0048] In one possible implementation, the transfer functions of voltage, amplitude, and temperature of bass unit 1 are the overall transfer functions of bass unit 1 protection. The overall transfer functions of bass unit 1 protection are obtained by connecting the transfer functions of bass unit 1 voltage and temperature, and the transfer functions of bass unit 1 voltage and amplitude in series.
[0049] By integrating the data of the bass unit 1 through a corresponding algorithm, the transfer functions of the voltage, amplitude and temperature of the bass unit 1 are obtained, so that the bass unit 1 can be better protected through feedback.
[0050] In one possible implementation, the voltage-temperature transfer function of the bass unit 1 is calculated by a combination of a thermal model function, I / V feedback data, and the thermal conduction function between coaxial devices.
[0051] By calculating the relevant data, the voltage and temperature transfer function of the bass unit 1 can be obtained, which facilitates the protection of the bass unit 1.
[0052] In one possible implementation, the voltage-temperature transfer function of the tweeter 2 is calculated by a combination of a thermal model function, I / V feedback data, and the thermal conduction function between coaxial devices.
[0053] By integrating the data of tweeter 2 through a corresponding algorithm, the voltage and temperature transfer function of tweeter 2 can be obtained, thereby enabling the tweeter 2 to be protected through feedback.
[0054] like Figure 2 As shown, the present invention also provides a protection system for a coaxial loudspeaker, which can be applied to the protection methods for coaxial loudspeakers described above. The protection system for the coaxial loudspeaker includes a woofer 1, a tweeter 2, a signal control unit, and a heat conduction module. The heat conduction module is used to establish a heat transfer model between the tweeter 2 and the woofer 1, and the signal control module is used to weight the signal gains of the woofer 1 and the tweeter 2.
[0055] A heat transfer model between tweeter 2 and woofer 1 is established using a heat conduction module to obtain the heat transfer coefficient between coaxial components, thereby better protecting the coaxial speaker. The signal control module dynamically adjusts the gain of woofer 1 and tweeter 2 through corresponding algorithms to better protect the coaxial speaker and improve sound quality.
[0056] like Figure 2As shown, in one possible implementation, the bass unit 1 includes a bass signal acquisition module, a bass I / V feedback module, a bass voice coil temperature calculation module, a bass temperature control module, an amplitude module, and an amplitude prediction module. The bass signal acquisition module acquires the bass signal through signal fusion. Signal fusion refers to the need to synthesize the two signals when a single power amplifier simultaneously drives the bass unit 1 and the tweeter 2, as they play different audio frequencies. The bass I / V feedback module provides feedback on the voltage of the bass unit 1. The bass voice coil temperature calculation module provides feedback on the temperature of the bass voice coil. The bass temperature control module uses temperature gain to perform gain processing on the original audio signal to protect the temperature of the bass unit 1. The amplitude module obtains the transfer functions of amplitude and voltage. The amplitude control module predicts the amplitude and uses amplitude gain to perform gain processing on the original audio signal to protect the amplitude of the bass unit 1.
[0057] The tweeter unit 2 includes a tweeter signal acquisition module, a tweeter I / V feedback module, a tweeter voice coil temperature calculation module, and a tweeter temperature control module. The tweeter signal acquisition module acquires the tweeter signal through signal fusion. The tweeter I / V feedback module provides feedback on the speaker voltage. The tweeter voice coil temperature calculation module provides feedback on the tweeter voice coil temperature. The tweeter temperature control module performs gain processing on the original audio signal using temperature gain to protect the speaker's temperature.
[0058] This protection system can protect coaxial speakers, reducing the possibility of noise and distortion, and thus improving the sound quality of the coaxial speakers.
[0059] This invention also provides a protection device for a coaxial loudspeaker, comprising a main link and multiple branch links connected in parallel with the main link. The main link includes a signal control module, whose input terminal is used to receive the raw audio signal. Simultaneously, the input terminal of the signal control module is also connected to the output terminals of an amplitude control module, a treble temperature control module, and a bass temperature control module to acquire the corresponding signals. The output terminal of the signal control module is connected to the coaxial device, i.e., to the loudspeaker. The output terminals of each branch link are connected to the input terminal of the signal control module.
[0060] At least one branch includes a tweeter voice coil temperature calculation module, and the remaining branches have tweeter I / V feedback modules.
[0061] At least one branch includes a bass voice coil temperature calculation module, and the remaining branches have bass I / V feedback modules.
[0062] At least one branch includes an amplitude module, and the remaining branches have a bass I / V feedback module.
[0063] The present invention also provides a protection device for a coaxial loudspeaker, which can be a combination device with stabilization and amplitude protection functions. One or more protection devices for coaxial loudspeakers are connected in series at the audio signal input terminal of the protection device, and the protection devices for coaxial loudspeakers can be the coaxial loudspeaker protection devices described above.
[0064] This invention provides a protection method, system, device, and component for a coaxial loudspeaker. The protection method includes: temperature modeling of the tweeter 2 to obtain the voltage-temperature transfer function of the tweeter 2; temperature and amplitude modeling of the woofer 1 to obtain the voltage, amplitude, and temperature transfer functions of the woofer 1; modeling the coaxial device with the tweeter 2 and woofer 1 to obtain the heat conduction function between the coaxial device; predicting the temperature of the tweeter 2 at the next moment based on the temperature information fed back from the current of the tweeter 2 at the previous moment; predicting the temperature of the woofer 1 at the next moment based on the temperature information fed back from the current of the woofer 1 at the previous moment; connecting the tweeter protection and woofer protection of the coaxial device in series; obtaining a target gain based on the next moment's temperature of the tweeter 2 and woofer 1, the original audio signal, and a corresponding preset threshold; and processing the original audio signal based on the target gain. The solution provided by this invention protects the tweeter 2 and woofer 1 through feedback, which can improve the sound quality of the coaxial loudspeaker, reduce the possibility of noise and distortion, and better meet practical usage needs.
[0065] The above description is merely an embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make improvements without departing from the inventive concept of the present invention, but these improvements all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
