Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of audio structures, and particularly relates to a ceiling-mounted sound and light combined audio. Background Art

[0002] A ceiling-mounted audio refers to an installation method in which the audio is directly installed inside a room. At the same time, to ensure the beauty of the room, most installations will also be paired with a ceiling, so that the audio is embedded in the ceiling to achieve the effect of being flush with the ceiling plane. Further, in order to enrich the functionality, there is currently a light strip set around the audio to endow it with functions such as the lighting or atmosphere rendering of downlights and spotlights.

[0003] Although the ceiling-mounted audio has a better stereo surround sound effect and occupies a smaller floor area compared to traditional floor-standing audio, its sound-emitting direction always faces the ground. When actually emitting sound, the sound does not directly spread towards the user's direction. In this way, the actual sound effect is worse than that of the floor-standing audio facing the user. Therefore, it is necessary to solve the problem of how to more accurately transmit the sound to the user when the audio is installed on the ceiling. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a ceiling-mounted sound and light combined audio for solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above technical purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0006] A ceiling-mounted sound and light combined audio includes a bottom case, an audio, a light strip, and a control panel. The audio and the light strip are both installed on the bottom case, and an adjustment mechanism is provided at one end of the bottom case relative to the audio and the light strip;

[0007] The adjustment mechanism includes a support suspension, an outer ring case, and a control component. The bottom case is movably embedded in the outer ring case. The support suspension is provided at the upper end of the outer ring case and forms a protective cover structure. The control component is provided between the middle of the support suspension and the middle of the upper end of the bottom case;

[0008] Support clamping plates are provided on the left and right sides of the upper end of the outer ring case through torsion springs.

The pusher is fixedly provided at the lower end of the internal gear ring. The connector is provided between the upper end of the bottom case and the support suspension.

[0010] The pusher includes a sliding plate, an electric control push rod, a first ball head and a connecting ring. The sliding plate is fixedly arranged at the lower end of the internal toothed ring. The electric control push rod is elastically slidably arranged at the lower end of the sliding plate and slides away from the middle of the bottom shell in the initial state. The first ball head is connected to the output shaft of the electric control push rod. The connecting ring is fixedly arranged at the upper end of the bottom shell. The vertical section of the connecting ring is in a semicircular structure and the opening cross-section line exceeds the height of its own center. The first ball head is movably embedded in the opening of the connecting ring.

[0011] The connector includes a second ball head and a connecting cover. The connecting cover is connected to the support suspension and is centered on the center of the bottom shell. The vertical section of the connecting cover is in a semicircular structure and the opening cross-section line exceeds the height of its own center. The second ball head is connected to the upper end of the bottom shell and is movably embedded in the connecting cover.

[0012] A locking component is further arranged between the outer ring shell and the support clamping plate. The locking component includes a rotating bolt, a sleeve, an extension rod and a gear. The rotating bolt rotates through the outer ring shell from bottom to top. The sleeve is slid up and down through a guide rib in the outer ring shell and is threadedly sleeved with the rotating bolt. The extension rod is connected to the support clamping plate and is concentric with its rotation point. The gear is arranged in the middle of the extension rod. A rack meshing with the gear is arranged on the side of the sleeve.

[0013] The number of the support clamping plates is four and they are evenly arranged in a ring. Two of the support clamping plates provided with the locking component are oppositely arranged.

[0014] An extension ring is arranged at the upper part inside the outer ring shell. A corrugated cover is arranged between the extension ring and the upper end of the bottom shell.

[0015] The present invention has at least the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0016] Through the combination of the sound box and the light strip, different atmosphere effects can be achieved in different usage scenarios, making the functions of the device more abundant, meeting the usage needs of different scenarios. The setting of the adjusting mechanism can further adjust the sound-emitting direction according to the position of the user, and reset to keep the ceiling flat in the non-use state, achieving the effects of improving the stereo surround sound and ensuring the flatness and beauty of the environment.

Specific embodiments

[0024] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] Embodiment 1: As Figures 1-5 shown, a ceiling-mounted sound and light combination speaker includes a bottom shell 1, a speaker 11, a light strip 12 and a control panel. The speaker 11 and the light strip 12 are both installed on the bottom shell 1, and an adjustment mechanism is provided at one end of the bottom shell 1 relative to the speaker 11 and the light strip 12;

[0026] The adjustment mechanism includes a support suspension 13, an outer ring shell 2 and a control component. The bottom shell 1 is movably embedded in the outer ring shell 2. The support suspension 13 is provided at the upper end of the outer ring shell 2 and forms a protective cover structure. The control component is provided between the middle of the support suspension 13 and the middle of the upper end of the bottom shell 1;

[0027] Support clamping plates 3 are provided on the left and right sides of the upper end of the outer ring shell 2 through torsion springs.

[0028] When installing the speaker 11, push the support clamping plate 3 on the outer ring shell 2 upward to keep it perpendicular to the ground as much as possible, so as to facilitate the bottom shell 1 and the support suspension 13 to extend into the reserved hole in the ceiling. When the support clamping plate 3 and the support suspension 13 are completely extended into the ceiling, at this time, the support clamping plate 3 automatically flips through the action of the torsion spring to keep it in contact with the inside of the ceiling, that is, parallel to the ground. At this time, the support clamping plate 3 cooperates with the ceiling to form a support, so the installation is convenient and fast;

[0029] During the use of the audio 11, the light strip 12 and the audio 11 are controlled by the control panel through the signal harness, and the control panel can realize remote control through functions such as Bluetooth module and wireless communication module. In some scenarios, if it is necessary to adjust the sound direction of the audio 11 to achieve a better stereo surround sound effect, the state of the audio 11 in different positions can be adjusted through the control panel. During the adjustment, the control panel changes the direction and angle of the audio 11 according to the adjustment using the control component. Compared with the conventional direct installation, the sound of the audio 11 facing the ground can more effectively spread the sound to the user's position, making the surround sound effect more three-dimensional and better. At the same time, this can also be based on different places of use. For example, most ceiling-mounted surround stereo audio systems 11 are mostly installed in the living room. Then, when the user is dining in the restaurant, the direction of the audio 11 can be adjusted to make the sound match the user's position as much as possible, thereby achieving a better effect.

[0030] When the speaker 11 is not in use, the light strip 12 can be used as a conventional downlight or spotlight. Especially when there are decorations indoors, the direction of the speaker 11 can be adjusted to reflect light on the decorations, thereby improving the aesthetic effect of the interior.

[0031] The control component includes an inner gear ring 4, a driving motor 41, a driving wheel 42, a pusher and a connector. The inner gear ring 4 is rotatably arranged on the support suspension 13 through a bracket and is concentrically distributed with the outer ring shell 2. The driving motor 41 is fixed to the support suspension 13 through a bracket. The driving wheel 42 is transmission-connected to the output shaft of the driving motor 41 and meshes with the inner gear ring 4. The pusher is fixed at the lower end of the inner gear ring 4, and the connector is arranged between the upper end of the bottom shell 1 and the support suspension 13.

[0032] The pusher includes a slide plate 43, an electric control push rod 44, a first ball head 45 and a connecting ring 46. The slide plate 43 is fixedly arranged at the lower end of the inner gear ring 4. The electric control push rod 44 is elastically slidably arranged at the lower end of the slide plate 43 and slides to the side away from the middle of the bottom shell 1 in the initial state. The first ball head 45 is connected to the output shaft of the electric control push rod 44. The connecting ring 46 is fixedly arranged at the upper end of the bottom shell 1. The vertical section of the connecting ring 46 is a semicircular structure and the opening section line exceeds the height of its own center of circle. The first ball head 45 is movably embedded in the opening of the connecting ring 46.

[0033] The connector includes a second ball head 5 and a connecting cover 51. The connecting cover 51 is connected to the supporting suspension 13 and is aligned with the center of the bottom shell 1. The vertical section of the connecting cover 51 is a semicircular structure and the opening section line exceeds the height of its own center. The second ball head 5 is connected to the upper end of the bottom shell 1 and is movably embedded in the connecting cover 51.

[0034] When controlling the usage status of the speaker 11 or the light strip 12, the drive motor 41 starts to rotate forward or backward according to the signal output by the control panel, and thus drives the internal gear ring 4 by means of the drive wheel 42. In order to facilitate wiring, the rotation of the drive motor 41 does not exceed 360°, so as to avoid the wire harness being wound or damaged by excessive pulling. When the internal gear ring 4 rotates, it will drive the first ball head 45 in the pusher to slide along the opening of the connecting ring 46. In the initial state, a balance is maintained between the first ball head 45 and the connecting ring 46, that is, the first ball head 45 only slides within the connecting ring 46, and the bottom shell 1 remains parallel to the surface of the outer ring shell 2. When the first ball head 45 moves to the specified adjustment position, at this time the electric control push rod 44 starts to extend its output shaft, and by pushing the connecting ring 46 and the bottom shell 1 with the first ball head 45, a flip is generated between the second ball head 5 at the upper end of the bottom shell 1 and the connecting cover 51, and then the orientations of the speaker 11 and the light strip 12 on the bottom shell 1 are adjusted, so as to achieve the effect of flexible adjustment. Among them, since the first ball head 45, the second ball head 5, the connecting ring 46 and the connecting cover 51 are in a fitting and clamping connection, and both ball heads are restricted by the radius size, stable and convenient adjustment effects can be achieved under different orientations and angle adjustments.

[0035] An extension ring 7 is provided at the upper part inside the outer ring shell 2, and a corrugated cover 71 is provided between the extension ring 7 and the upper end of the bottom shell 1; when the bottom shell 1 flips, a gap will appear between the outer ring shell 2 and the bottom shell 1. At this time, in order to improve the aesthetics and prevent external impurities, flying insects, etc. from entering through the gap, the corrugated cover 71 can be set at this time, and through the flipping of the bottom shell 1, and it can meet the flipping changes of the bottom shell 1 in different orientations and angles, and at the same time play the role of closing the gap.

[0036] Embodiment 2: As Figures 1-2 shown in FIGS. 4-5, on the basis of Embodiment 1, a further improvement is made. A locking assembly is further provided between the outer ring shell 2 and the support clamping plate 3. The locking assembly includes a rotating bolt 6, a sleeve 61, an extension rod 62 and a gear 63. The rotating bolt 6 rotates through the outer ring shell 2 from bottom to top. The sleeve 61 is slidably arranged on the outer ring shell 2 up and down through a guiding rib and is threadedly sleeved with the rotating bolt 6. The extension rod 62 is connected to the support clamping plate 3 and is concentric with its rotation point. The gear 63 is arranged in the middle of the extension rod 62. A rack 64 meshing with the gear 63 is arranged on the side of the sleeve 61.

[0037] The number of the support clamping plates 3 is four and they are evenly arranged in a ring shape, and two of the support clamping plates 3 provided with the locking assembly are arranged oppositely.

[0038] In order to improve the stability of the audio 11 after installation and avoid accidents such as the audio 11 sagging or falling from the ceiling due to the aging of the torsion spring of the support card plate 3 during long-term support, after the audio 11 is initially snapped into the installation hole in the ceiling, at this time, the rotary bolt 6 can be twisted by a tool. The twisted end of the rotary bolt 6 can be a cross opening or a hexagonal groove, so as to facilitate the operation with a screwdriver or an Allen wrench;

[0039] Before installation, the sleeve 61 is kept in the state of being retracted into the outer ring housing 2 to the maximum extent downward. In this way, the upward flipping of the gear 63 can be achieved by the downward pulling of the rack 64 on the gear 63. Of course, according to the meshing orientation of the rack 64 relative to the gear 63, the sleeve 61 can also be kept in the state of extending out of the outer ring housing 2 to the maximum extent. In this embodiment, the rack 64 is located behind the gear 63, which is convenient for manually flipping only the two support card plates 3 to initially install the audio 11. After the initial installation is completed, the rotary bolt 6 can be twisted by a tool. At this time, due to the action of the guiding ribs, the sleeve 61 threadedly sleeved with the rotary bolt 6 will retract into the outer ring housing 2. At this time, the rack 64 moves accordingly and drives the gear 63. The gear 63 rotates and uses the extension rod 62 to flip the support card plate 3 until the support card plate 3 is parallel and attached to the inner wall of the ceiling. In this way, the state of the support card plate 3 can be locked through the meshing between the gear 63 and the rack 64 and the cooperation of the thread having a certain self-locking effect. At the same time, the adjusting part is integrally incorporated into the outer ring housing 2, which can effectively reduce the space occupied by the device and make the appearance of the device more tidy and beautiful.

[0040] The above embodiments only exemplarily illustrate the principles and effects of the present invention, rather than limiting the present invention. Any person familiar with this technology can modify or change the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or changes completed by those with ordinary knowledge in the technical field without departing from the spirit and technical idea disclosed by the present invention should still be covered by the claims of the present invention.
