Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of walkie-talkie equipment, and in particular to a walkie-talkie with a folding antenna. Background Technology

[0002] Walkie-talkies, as convenient wireless communication devices, are widely used in public safety, engineering construction, outdoor operations, and civilian communications. The antenna is one of the key components determining the communication quality of a walkie-talkie, performing the bidirectional conversion function of converting radio frequency signals into electromagnetic waves for radiation and receiving electromagnetic waves back into radio frequency signals. In practical use, to reduce the space occupied by walkie-talkies during carrying, storage, or transportation, some products adopt a rotatable or foldable antenna structure. This means the antenna can be folded or rotated within a certain angle range relative to the walkie-talkie's casing, allowing it to be stored close to the casing when not in use, thus reducing the overall height and improving portability.

[0003] In existing technologies, radio frequency signal transmission between a foldable antenna and the walkie-talkie housing is typically achieved through a flexible wire or coaxial cable. Specifically, one end of the antenna is rotatably mounted on the housing via a rotating connector (such as a hinge or shaft), one end of the wire is electrically connected to the radiator inside the antenna, and the other end passes through the rotating connection and is introduced into the housing to be electrically connected to the walkie-talkie's mainboard radio frequency circuit, thereby enabling signal conduction between the antenna and the radio frequency circuit.

[0004] However, because the wire must pass through the rotating connection point of the antenna, when the antenna rotates repeatedly relative to the housing, the wire at the rotating connection point will be repeatedly bent, twisted, pulled, or tangled. After long-term use, the metal conductor layer of the wire will experience fatigue fracture due to repeated bending, and the insulation layer may also be damaged due to mechanical friction. Ultimately, this leads to unstable radio frequency signal transmission, increased contact resistance, or even complete signal interruption, seriously affecting the communication reliability and lifespan of the walkie-talkie. Some existing solutions attempt to alleviate the above problems by using more flexible wire materials or increasing the bending radius of the wire, but due to the limited structural space of the miniaturized walkie-talkie, the space for the wire at the rotating connection point is extremely limited, making it difficult to fundamentally solve the problem of wire fatigue failure due to repeated bending. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a walkie-talkie with a foldable antenna to solve the technical problem in the prior art where the wires fail due to fatigue caused by repeated bending, which seriously affects the communication reliability and service life of the walkie-talkie.

[0006] This invention provides a walkie-talkie with a foldable antenna, comprising: Walkie-talkie body; The first conductive contact is disposed on the walkie-talkie body and is electrically connected to the radio frequency circuit inside the walkie-talkie body. An antenna assembly is rotatably connected to the walkie-talkie body. The antenna assembly has a folded state and an unfolded state. When the antenna assembly rotates on the walkie-talkie body, the antenna assembly switches between the folded state and the unfolded state. The antenna assembly includes an antenna body and a second conductive contact. The second conductive contact is disposed on the side of the antenna body facing the first conductive contact and is electrically connected to the antenna body. The second conductive contact includes at least a contact slide. When the antenna assembly rotates, the first conductive contact makes conductive contact with the contact slide on the second conductive contact and slides along the circumferential direction of the contact slide.

[0007] Optionally, the walkie-talkie body has a pivot post on the side facing the antenna assembly. The pivot post is inserted into the antenna body, and the antenna body rotates on the walkie-talkie body about the pivot post as the axis of rotation.

[0008] Optionally, the antenna body may also include a rotating connector and a fastener. The rotating connector is disposed within the pivot post, and the fastener is disposed on the side of the antenna body facing away from the pivot post. The fastener is inserted into the rotating connector and threadedly connected to the rotating connector, and is tightly attached to the side wall of the antenna body, so as to rotatably connect the antenna body to the pivot post.

[0009] Optionally, the antenna body includes a first antenna housing, a second antenna housing, and an antenna radiator, wherein the first antenna housing and the second antenna housing are joined together to form a receiving space for accommodating the antenna radiator.

[0010] Optionally, a hollow first protrusion extends from the inside of the first antenna housing, and a second protrusion extends from the inside of the second antenna housing. The first protrusion and the second protrusion are in contact, and the pivot post is inserted into the first protrusion and the second protrusion in sequence. When the antenna body rotates on the pivot post, both the first protrusion and the second protrusion rotate around the pivot post.

[0011] Optionally, the walkie-talkie body has an installation area on its front side; It also includes a speaker assembly and a pressing component. The speaker assembly is disposed in the installation area, and the pressing component is disposed in the installation area and covers the speaker assembly. The pressing component has an operation button for the user to press to act on a switching element inside the walkie-talkie body.

[0012] Optionally, the speaker assembly includes a mounting plate and at least two speakers, the mounting plate being located within the mounting area, and the two speakers being spaced apart on the mounting plate.

[0013] Optionally, a sound outlet groove is provided around the perimeter of the installation area, and a sound outlet channel is formed between the sound outlet groove and the speaker, so that the sound generated by the speaker can be transmitted through the corresponding sound outlet channel.

[0014] Optionally, it also includes a sealing plate disposed between the pressing member and the speaker assembly, the sealing plate covering the speaker assembly, and the sealing plate being sealed to the walkie-talkie body.

[0015] Optionally, it also includes a housing that covers the mounting area and is connected to the walkie-talkie body; the speaker assembly is located between the walkie-talkie body and the housing; the pressing element is located on the side of the housing facing away from the speaker assembly; the sealing plate is located between the pressing element and the housing; and the sound outlet groove is formed on the side of the housing facing the pressing element.

[0016] Optionally, the walkie-talkie body is provided with a walkie-talkie motherboard, which is provided with a digital signal area and an analog signal area, and the digital signal area and the analog signal area are shielded by a shielding structure.

[0017] The technical solution of the present invention has the following advantages: 1. The walkie-talkie with a foldable antenna provided by the present invention allows the first conductive contact to contact and slide along the annular contact track on the second conductive contact when the antenna assembly rotates on the walkie-talkie body. The two maintain conductive contact throughout the entire rotation stroke of the antenna assembly, so that the electrical connection between the antenna radiator and the radio frequency circuit no longer depends on the flexible wire crossing the rotation connection position. This fundamentally eliminates the risk of fatigue fracture and poor contact caused by repeated bending, twisting and pulling of the wire at the rotation connection position. At the same time, the annular contact surface provides a 360° continuous conductive track, ensuring that the antenna assembly can maintain stable radio frequency signal transmission at any angle between the folded and unfolded states, thereby improving the communication reliability of the walkie-talkie and the service life of the antenna.

[0018] 2. The walkie-talkie with a folding antenna provided by the present invention can reuse the internal space behind the pressing part and improve the space utilization rate inside the walkie-talkie body by centrally setting the pressing part and the speaker assembly in the same installation area on the front of the walkie-talkie body.

[0022] The specific embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the description of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present invention.

[0025] The terms “first,” “second,” “third,” etc., are used merely to distinguish elements with similar attributes, not to indicate or imply relative importance or a specific order.

[0026] The terms “include,” “comprising,” or any other variation thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, which includes not only the elements listed but also other elements not expressly listed.

[0027] Example Reference Figures 1-7 As shown, the present invention provides a walkie-talkie with a foldable antenna, including a walkie-talkie body 1, a first conductive contact 2, and an antenna assembly 4. The first conductive contact 2 is disposed on the surface of the walkie-talkie body 1 and electrically connected to the radio frequency circuit inside the walkie-talkie body 1. The antenna assembly 4 is rotatably connected to the walkie-talkie body 1 and located at the first conductive contact 2. The antenna assembly 4 has a folded state and an unfolded state. When the antenna assembly 4 rotates on the walkie-talkie body 1, the antenna assembly 4 switches between the folded state and the unfolded state.

[0028] Antenna assembly 4 includes antenna body 41 and second conductive contact 42. The second conductive contact 42 is disposed on the side of antenna body 41 facing the first conductive contact 2. The second conductive contact 42 is electrically connected to antenna body 41. The second conductive contact 42 includes at least an annular contact slide. When antenna assembly 4 rotates, the first conductive contact 2 makes conductive contact with the contact slide on the second conductive contact 42 and slides along the annular direction of the second conductive contact 42, and maintains contact.

[0029] When using the walkie-talkie, the user can rotate the antenna assembly 4 from a folded state close to the walkie-talkie body 1 to an unfolded state suitable for transmitting and receiving signals.

[0030] When the antenna assembly 4 rotates on the walkie-talkie body 1, the second conductive contact 42 rotates relative to the walkie-talkie body 1 along with the antenna body 41. Since the second conductive contact 42 has an annular contact track, when the second conductive contact 42 rotates to different angles, it can maintain contact with the first conductive contact 2 through the corresponding position in its circumferential direction. The radio frequency signal can be transmitted sequentially through the radio frequency circuit inside the walkie-talkie body 1, the first conductive contact 2, the second conductive contact 42 and the antenna body 41, so that the antenna assembly 4 can perform radio frequency signal transmission and reception when it is at different rotation angles.

[0031] During rotation, the first conductive contact 2 contacts and slides along the annular contact track on the second conductive contact 42. The two maintain conductive contact throughout the entire rotation stroke of the antenna assembly 4, so that the electrical connection between the antenna radiator and the radio frequency circuit no longer depends on the flexible wire that crosses the rotation connection position. This fundamentally eliminates the risk of fatigue fracture and poor contact caused by repeated bending, twisting and pulling of the wire at the rotation connection position. At the same time, the annular contact surface provides a 360° continuous conductive track, ensuring that the antenna assembly 4 can maintain stable radio frequency signal transmission at any angle between the folded and unfolded states, thereby improving the communication reliability of the walkie-talkie and the service life of the antenna.

[0032] Specifically, the first conductive contact 2 can be circular, annular, or at least partially extending along the circumference. The first conductive contact 2 is not limited to an elastic structure, as long as it can maintain conductive contact with the first conductive contact without maintaining conductive contact. As for the second conductive contact 42, in this embodiment, it can be set as a ring with a circular gap in the middle, or it can be set as a circular plate, a square, rectangular, or irregularly shaped plate. As long as the second conductive contact 42 has an annular contact slide, it can achieve continuous conductive contact between the first conductive contact 2 and the second conductive contact 42 during rotation.

[0033] The second conductive contact 42 can be directly disposed on the side of the antenna body 41 facing the first conductive contact 2, or an annular mounting groove 10 can be provided on the side of the antenna body 41 facing the first conductive contact 2, and the second conductive contact 42 can be installed in the annular mounting groove 10. The second conductive contact 42 can achieve continuous contact along the entire circumference in terms of electrical connection. The antenna assembly 4 is configured as a long strip, and one end of the antenna assembly 4 is rotatably connected to the walkie-talkie body 1. The actual mechanical rotation range of the antenna assembly 4 can be set according to the structure and interference between the antenna assembly 4 and the walkie-talkie body 1, and it is not necessary to limit the antenna assembly 4 to mechanically rotate 360 ​​degrees.

[0034] Specifically, the antenna body 41 includes a first antenna housing 411, a second antenna housing 412, and an antenna radiator. The first antenna housing 411 and the second antenna housing 412 are assembled to form a receiving space for accommodating the antenna radiator. The two-piece housing structure makes the installation and positioning of the antenna radiator more convenient. During assembly, the antenna radiator can be placed in the first antenna housing 411 first, and then the second antenna housing 412 can be covered and ultrasonically welded or clipped in place. This avoids the difficult operation of inserting the antenna radiator through a narrow opening. At the same time, the split housing structure facilitates visual inspection and rework of the welding points, feed connections, and other parts of the antenna radiator, improving the manufacturing yield and production efficiency of the antenna assembly 4.

[0035] The first antenna housing 411 has an annular mounting groove 10 on the side facing the first conductive contact 2. The second conductive contact 42 is installed in the annular mounting groove 10. The annular mounting groove 10 provides a predetermined installation positioning reference for the second conductive contact 42, so that the coaxiality between the annular conductive contact and the pivot post 3 is accurately guaranteed during assembly, avoiding poor contact caused by installation deviation. The groove wall of the annular mounting groove 10 forms a lateral limit on the second conductive contact 42, preventing the second conductive contact 42 from being displaced or falling off due to vibration or rotational impact during use, thus ensuring the long-term stability of the conductive contact.

[0036] To enable the antenna assembly 4 to rotate on the walkie-talkie body 1, a pivot post 3 is provided on the side of the walkie-talkie body 1 facing the antenna assembly 4. The pivot post 3 is inserted into the antenna body 41, and the antenna body 41 rotates on the walkie-talkie body 1 with the pivot post 3 as the axis of rotation. The pivot post 3 serves as the rotation center of the antenna assembly 4, providing precise mechanical rotation constraints for the antenna body 41. This ensures that the antenna body 41 maintains a stable axis of rotation during rotation, avoiding poor contact or misalignment between the first conductive contact 2 and the second conductive contact 42 due to deviation of the rotation axis. At the same time, the design of the pivot post 3 being inserted into the antenna body 41 makes the rotating connection structure compact and does not occupy any additional external space of the walkie-talkie body 1, which is beneficial to the miniaturization and aesthetics of the entire walkie-talkie.

[0037] As one specific implementation method, refer to Figure 3-4 As shown, it also includes a rotating connector 43 and a fastener 44. The rotating connector 43 is disposed inside the pivot post 3, and the fastener 44 is disposed on the side of the antenna body 41 facing away from the pivot post 3. The fastener 44 passes through the rotating connector 43 and is threadedly connected to the rotating connector 43 and is in close contact with the side wall of the antenna body 41, so as to rotatably connect the antenna body 41 to the pivot post 3. The rotating connector 43 can be configured as a connecting bushing, a damping bushing or a threaded connecting sleeve according to its actual function. The rotating connector 43 is directly fixed inside the pivot post 3 and is coaxially arranged with the pivot post 3.

[0038] The threaded engagement between the fastener 44 and the rotating connector 43 provides adjustable pivoting damping force for the antenna assembly 4. Properly tightening the fastener 44 can increase the friction force when the antenna assembly 4 rotates, allowing the antenna assembly 4 to remain at any rotation angle when not subjected to external force. This avoids accidental shaking or folding of the antenna assembly 4 during use due to insufficient damping. At the same time, the threaded connection is a detachable structure. When the antenna assembly 4 needs to be repaired or replaced, it can be removed from the pivot column 3 simply by loosening the fastener 44 without damaging the housing, thus improving the maintainability of the product.

[0039] Furthermore, a hollow first protrusion 5 extends from the inside of the first antenna housing 411, and a second protrusion 6 extends from the inside of the second antenna housing 412. The first protrusion 5 and the second protrusion 6 are in contact, and the pivot post 3 is inserted into the first protrusion 5 and the second protrusion 6 in sequence. When the antenna body 41 rotates on the pivot post 3, the first protrusion 5 and the second protrusion 6 both rotate around the pivot post 3. The first protrusion 5 and the second protrusion 6 form a space for the pivot post 3 to be inserted and constrain the pivot post 3, limiting the axial movement of the antenna housing on the pivot post 3, ensuring the relative positional accuracy of the annular second conductive contact 42 and the first conductive contact 2 in the axial direction, so that the two always maintain reliable contact pressure during rotation.

[0040] The second antenna housing 412 has a placement groove 7 on the side facing away from the first antenna housing 411. The fastener 44 is located in the placement groove 7 and is threaded through the bottom of the placement groove 7 and the rotating connector 43 in the pivot post 3. The placement groove 7 provides a recessed installation space for the fastener 44, so that the head of the fastener 44 does not protrude from the outer surface of the second antenna housing 412, maintaining the flatness and aesthetics of the antenna assembly 4. At the same time, it reduces the risk of the fastener 44 protruding and snagging clothing or scratching the user. The countersunk hole design also makes the connection between the fastener 44 and the housing more secure. The head of the fastener 44 is completely surrounded and covered by the perimeter of the placement groove 7, reducing the possibility of the fastener 44 becoming loose due to accidental bumps.

[0041] In one specific embodiment, the fastener 44 includes a screw 441 and a washer 442 fitted onto the screw 441. The end of the screw 441 facing away from its nut is inserted into the rotating connector 43 and threadedly connected to the rotating connector 43. The nut of the screw 441 abuts against the washer 442, and the washer 442 abuts against the wall of the second antenna housing 412 at the placement groove 7. The washer 442 provides a buffer and stress-dispersing layer between the head of the screw 441 and the second antenna housing 412. When the screw 441 is tightened, the washer 442 secures the head of the screw 441. The concentrated clamping force is dispersed into a larger area of ​​uniform pressure, avoiding indentations or local cracks caused by the screw head directly contacting the housing surface; at the same time, the gasket 442 has a certain elastic deformation capacity, which can maintain the axial clamping force after the antenna assembly 4 has been used for a long time and has slight wear, preventing rotational loosening caused by wear, and extending the effective life of the rotating connection structure. With the setting of screw 441 and gasket 442, the antenna assembly 4 can be more firmly rotated and connected to the walkie-talkie body 1, preventing the antenna assembly 4 from detaching from the walkie-talkie body 1.

[0042] In another embodiment, a first sealing gasket 8 is also included. The first sealing gasket 8 is disposed at the connection between the fastener 44 and the second antenna housing 412, and is used to seal the assembly gap between the pivot post 3 and the second antenna housing 412. Specifically, the first sealing gasket 8 is disposed at the bottom of the placement groove 7 and abuts against the wall of the second antenna housing 412. A gasket 442 is disposed on the side of the first sealing gasket 8 facing away from the pivot post 3. A screw 441 passes through the first sealing gasket 8 and is threadedly connected to the rotating connector 43. The first sealing gasket 8 forms a first waterproof barrier at the assembly position of the fastener 44, effectively preventing external liquids (such as rainwater and sweat) from seeping into the antenna housing through the gap between the fastener 44 and the housing, and preventing the antenna radiator from experiencing a decrease in radiation efficiency or corrosion damage due to moisture.

[0043] Furthermore, a second sealing gasket 9 is included. The second sealing gasket 9 is located at the opening of the placement groove 7 and is used to seal the opening of the placement groove 7. The second sealing gasket 9 forms a second waterproof barrier at the opening end of the placement groove 7, and together with the first sealing gasket 8, it constitutes a double sealing protection system. The first sealing gasket 8 prevents liquid from entering along the thread path at the root of the fastener 44, and the second sealing gasket 9 prevents liquid from entering the internal space of the placement groove 7 at the opening. A buffer isolation area is formed between the two layers of seals. Even if the external seal is worn or aged, the internal seal can still function independently, which greatly improves the overall waterproof reliability of the antenna rotation connection position and extends the service life of the walkie-talkie in humid environments. At the same time, the second sealing gasket 9 can also cover the placement groove 7, thereby preventing the internal fastener 44 from being exposed and affecting the aesthetics.

[0044] As another implementation method, refer to Figure 6As shown, a notch 16 is provided on the surface of the antenna body 41. Specifically, the notch 16 is provided on the side of the second antenna housing 412 facing away from the first antenna housing 411, and is located on the side wall of the antenna body 41 facing away from the walkie-talkie body 1. In use, the user can easily rotate the antenna body 41 by holding the notch 16, so that the antenna assembly 4 can be rotated from the folded state close to the walkie-talkie body 1 to the unfolded state suitable for transmitting and receiving signals, making it more convenient to use.

[0045] In addition, existing walkie-talkies typically place the operation buttons and speaker 111 in different locations on the casing, with the speaker 111's sound outlet possibly located on the side or back of the casing. This structure requires reserved installation space for both the buttons and the speaker 111, which is not conducive to the miniaturization design of the walkie-talkie. When the speaker 111 is located on the side or back of the casing, the sound outlet may be obstructed when the user holds the walkie-talkie or wears it on clothing, affecting the sound propagation effect.

[0046] As one specific implementation method, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the walkie-talkie body 1 has an installation area on the front, that is, the walkie-talkie body 1 has an installation area on the side facing away from the antenna assembly 4, and the speaker assembly 11 is installed in the installation area. It also includes a pressing element 12, which is disposed in the installation area and covers the speaker assembly 11. The pressing element 12 has an operation button for the user to press, so as to act on the switching element inside the walkie-talkie body 1.

[0047] The pressing component 12 and the speaker assembly 11 are at least partially corresponding in the thickness direction, reusing the same mounting area on the front of the walkie-talkie. This overlaps the mounting space for the operation buttons and the speaker 111, reducing the surface area occupied by separate areas for the buttons and speaker 111. This contributes to the miniaturization of the walkie-talkie and the simplicity of the front layout. Furthermore, the forward-facing speaker assembly 11 ensures that the sound is directly directed at the user when holding the walkie-talkie or wearing it on clothing, reducing sound attenuation caused by obstruction of the sound outlet and improving call clarity. Concentrating the pressing component 12 and the speaker assembly 11 in the same mounting area on the front of the walkie-talkie body 1 allows for the reuse of the internal space behind the pressing component 12, improving the internal space utilization of the walkie-talkie body 1.

[0048] The pressing element 12 can be a talk button, function button, or other operation button of a walkie-talkie. The pressing element 12 has a pressing surface facing the user. The pressing surface is provided with anti-slip texture. The anti-slip texture can include multiple raised textures, concave textures, or a combination of raised textures and concave textures arranged in parallel with each other. It is used to increase the friction between the user's fingers and the pressing element 12, reduce slippage during pressing, and facilitate pressing operation by the user outdoors, while wearing gloves, or when hands are wet.

[0049] The speaker assembly 11 includes a mounting plate 112 and at least two speakers 111. In this embodiment, there are two speakers 111. The mounting plate 112 is located in the mounting area. The speakers 111 are located on the side of the mounting plate 112 facing the pressing member 12. The two speakers 111 are located on the side of the pressing member 12 facing the inside of the walkie-talkie body 1 and are spaced apart along the area where the pressing member 12 is located.

[0050] Two speakers 111 are respectively mounted on mounting plate 112. Mounting plate 112 is used to support, position or fix the two speakers 111.

[0051] The pressing member 12 and the two speakers 111 are at least partially corresponding along the thickness direction of the walkie-talkie. That is, the two speakers 111 are located in the front projection area occupied by the pressing member 12, thereby reusing the button mounting area and the speaker 111 mounting area, reducing the housing space occupied by the separate arrangement of the buttons and speakers 111.

[0052] Furthermore, a sound outlet groove 14 is provided around the installation area. The sound outlet groove 14 and the speaker 111 form a sound outlet channel so that the sound generated by the speaker 111 can be transmitted through the corresponding sound outlet channel. Specifically, there are two sets of sound outlet grooves 14. The two sets of sound outlet grooves 14 are respectively provided with two speakers 111. Each set of sound outlet grooves 14 has multiple sound outlet grooves, and the multiple sound outlet grooves 14 are arranged in the same direction.

[0053] The dual speakers 111, spaced apart on the front, create a stereo effect and a wider sound coverage, improving the walkie-talkie's sound identification in noisy environments. This also helps to increase sound intensity and propagation range. The mounting plate 112 provides a rigid base for fixing the speakers 111, reducing noise and distortion caused by shell resonance during speaker operation. The sound outlet groove 14 is arranged around the perimeter of the mounting area, allowing sound to be evenly transmitted forward from the periphery of the pressing member 12. This avoids having a large number of through holes on the main pressing surface of the pressing member 12, which would affect the button's pressing feel, structural strength, and waterproof performance, and helps maintain the integrity of the pressing surface and its anti-slip effect. At the same time, the sound generated by the two speakers 111 is transmitted forward through the sound outlet groove 14 on the periphery of the pressing member 12, which can reduce the obstruction of the sound output position when the walkie-talkie is held or worn.

[0054] As a specific implementation, it also includes a sealing plate 13, which is disposed between the pressing member 12 and the speaker assembly 11. The periphery of the sealing plate 13 is connected to the walkie-talkie body 1 through an adhesive layer, so that a sealed connection is formed between the sealing plate 13 and the walkie-talkie body 1.

[0055] The sealing plate 13 can be used to support the pressing part 12, transmit the pressing force, or close the mounting opening on the walkie-talkie body 1. When the pressing part 12 is pressed, it can transmit the pressing force directly or through the sealing plate 13 to the switching element inside the walkie-talkie body 1, thereby triggering the corresponding communication function or control function. The sealing plate 13 is sealed to the walkie-talkie body 1 by applying glue, so that the sound channel is relatively separated from the electronic component installation space inside the walkie-talkie body 1, reducing the possibility of external liquid entering through the sound outlet groove 145 further entering the walkie-talkie body 1.

[0056] When a user needs to operate the walkie-talkie, they can press the button 12 located on the front of the walkie-talkie. The button 12 acts on the switching element inside the walkie-talkie through the sealing plate 13 or the corresponding pressing transmission structure to trigger the call or other control functions. The anti-slip texture on the surface of the button 12 can increase the friction between the finger and the button 12, making it easier for the user to press steadily. When the walkie-talkie outputs sound, the two speakers 111 generate sound respectively. The sound is transmitted through the sound channel between the two speakers 111 and the corresponding sound outlet slot 14, and is transmitted to the front of the walkie-talkie through the sound outlet slot 14 located on the periphery of the button 12. Since the two speakers 111 are located inside the button 12, the button 12 and the speakers 111 overlap at least partially in the thickness direction of the walkie-talkie. Therefore, the space behind the button can be used to install the speaker 111, realizing the integrated arrangement of the button structure and the speaker 111 structure.

[0057] Specifically, it also includes a housing 15, which covers the installation area and is connected to the walkie-talkie body 1. A speaker assembly 11 is located between the walkie-talkie body 1 and the housing 15. The housing 15 covers the speaker assembly 11 and houses the speaker assembly 11 inside the walkie-talkie body 1. A pressing member 12 is located on the side of the housing 15 facing away from the speaker assembly 11. To facilitate the installation of the pressing member 12, a groove is provided on the side of the housing 15 facing away from the speaker assembly 11. The pressing member 12 is located in the groove. A sealing plate 13 is disposed between the pressing member 12 and the housing 15. The sealing plate 13 is also disposed in the groove.

[0058] The sound outlet slots 14 are set on the wall of the housing 15 on the side wall of the groove. There are two sets of sound outlet slots 14, and the two sets of sound outlet slots 14 are respectively set to correspond to two speakers 111. Each set of sound outlet slots 14 has multiple slots, and the multiple sound outlet slots 14 are evenly arranged along one side wall of the groove.

[0059] As another implementation method, the walkie-talkie body 1 is provided with a walkie-talkie motherboard, which is provided with a digital signal area and an analog signal area. The digital signal area and the analog signal area are shielded by a shielding structure, thereby enabling dual signals. The shielding structure can also shield the two types of signals to avoid mutual interference.

[0060] In addition, a buckle structure is provided on the side of the walkie-talkie body 1 facing away from the pressing part 12, so that the walkie-talkie body 1 can be easily carried.

[0061] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
