[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model more clear, the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.
[0030] Figure 2 , Figure 3A , respectively show the front structure, side structure and back structure of the LED box provided by the first embodiment of the utility model, refer to Figure 1 As shown in FIG3 , the LED box includes a box frame 21, in which a plurality of LED modules 22 are fixed and arranged in sequence, and each LED module 22 can fill the entire area of the box frame 21 after being spliced, and the LED module 22 includes a PCB board and a plurality of LED packaged lamp beads 221 welded on the PCB board, and the LED packaged lamp beads 221 include an integrated packaged LED light emitting chip and a driver chip, and the driver chip is electrically connected to the LED light emitting chip. Among them, the arrangement of each LED module 22 is generally an array type.
[0031] In this application, the side where the LED package lamp beads 221 are located is defined as the front side of the LED module 22, and the other side opposite to it is defined as the back side of the LED module 22. Accordingly, for the entire LED box, the side where the LED package lamp beads 221 are exposed is defined as the front side of the box frame 21, and the other side opposite to it is defined as the back side of the box frame 21.
[0032] A connector is provided on the back of each LED module 22, and the connector is electrically connected to each LED package lamp bead 221 through a power line and a data line arranged in the PCB board to form a cascade circuit. The specific cascade mode can be a serial connection, where the data lines of each LED package lamp bead 221 are connected in sequence, or a parallel connection, where the data lines of each LED package lamp bead 221 are connected together to the data line. A resonant speaker 23 is also fixed on the back of the box frame 21.
[0033] The resonance speaker 23 is used to perform audio vibration according to the received audio signal. The audio vibration is transmitted to the air in front of the LED module 22 through the box frame 21 and the LED module 22 in sequence, so that the air in front of the LED module 22 vibrates and generates sound.
[0034] Watching movies in a cinema hall gives the audience an immersive experience of big screen vision. When they can concentrate on watching the movie, in addition to the visual sense of involvement, the sound system designed in the theater can bring high volume shock and at the same time, the story dialogue can be heard clearly. One of the important factors is that the sound of the movie characters' dialogue is emitted from the speaker box placed behind the center of the projection screen, and is transmitted to the audience through the cloth projection screen (or the 3D metal screen with a plastic substrate with sound-permeable holes), so that the audience can clearly feel that the protagonist's dialogue sound is emitted from the middle of the screen. In the large range of the big screen, it can be felt that the sound source and the image position are consistent. However, when using LED display technology to improve image quality, the problem that LED cannot be sound-permeable makes the sound source problem of the dialogue prominent. Therefore, the present application adopts a resonant speaker 23 to amplify the sound in the form of audio vibration, and transmits the audio vibration through the box frame 21 and the LED module 22 as a medium, so as to transmit the sound of the movie character's dialogue. Physically, the sound is emitted from the center of the LED screen, which can reproduce the sound source position of the dialogue and completely overlap with the image position of the protagonist's speech, so as to achieve the best movie viewing experience.
[0035] The resonant speaker 23 is essentially similar to a special sound box without a horn or loudspeaker. It is an audio vibration unit. When installed on any large-area plane, it can transmit audio vibrations to the plane, allowing the large plane to vibrate the surrounding air to form sound, so as to achieve the effect of sounding like other speakers. The audio vibrations it produces have wavelength penetration, that is, the resonant speaker 23 can pass the audio vibrations carrying human voice audio energy from 100Hz to 10kHz through the medium surface, and finally make the sound heard on the other side of the medium, effectively solving the problem of sound penetration of the LED screen. In addition, the resonant speaker 23 uses the resonance principle to generate gain, so it has higher sensitivity and responsiveness at specific frequencies, which can enable the audience to feel the emotional expression in the sound more deeply.
[0036] Further reading Figure 3A A video processing unit 24 is also fixed on the back of the box frame 21. The video processing unit 24 is connected to the LED module 22 and is used to distribute the received video signal to the connectors of each LED module 22 to control the LED module 22 to display images. The video signal received by the video processing unit 24 and the audio signal received by the resonance speaker 23 need to be synchronized, so that the image viewed by the audience and the sound heard can also be synchronized.
[0037] Figure 3B Another side structure of an LED box is shown. Figure 3AOn the basis of the box frame 21, an audio power amplifier module 25 and a power circuit 26 are also fixed on the back of the box frame 21. The audio power amplifier module 25 is connected to the resonance speaker 23, and is used to amplify the audio signal and provide it to the resonance speaker 23. The power circuit 26 is connected to the audio power amplifier module 25, and is used to supply power to the audio power amplifier module 25.
[0038] Figure 3A and Figure 3B The difference between these two structures is that Figure 3A Applicable to the case where the audio amplifier module is independent of the LED box. Figure 3A The audio signal received by the middle resonance speaker 23 has been power amplified. Figure 3B The applicable situation is that the audio signal is not amplified by power, and an audio amplifier needs to be set on the LED box.
[0039] The resonance speaker 23, the video processing unit 24, the audio amplifier module 25, and the power supply circuit 26 may be integrated on the same PCB board, or may be respectively arranged on different PCB boards.
[0040] Further reading Figure 4 The box frame 21 includes a frame beam 211 and at least one spacing beam 212. There are four frame beams, namely an upper frame beam, a lower frame beam, a left frame beam, and a right frame beam. The spacing beams 212 can be of two types, including horizontal and vertical types. The spacing beams 212 divide the box frame 21 into a plurality of accommodating grids. Adjacent accommodating grids 17 are spaced from each other by horizontal spacing beams or vertical spacing beams.
[0041] The number of the spacing beams 212 is unlimited, and the distribution rule of each spacing beam 212 can be uniform or uneven. Therefore, the size of the accommodating grid can have a variety of specifications and sizes. One or more LED modules 22 are fixed in each accommodating grid, such as Figure 4 As shown in , some of the storage compartments have four LED modules 22 fixed therein, and some of the storage compartments have two LED modules 22 fixed therein. Of course, it can also be designed into other sizes and specifications according to the actual application situation, and there is no specific limit, but it is generally required that at least one side of the LED module 22 is adjacent to the spacing beam 212 or the frame beam 211, so as to be fixed on the adjacent spacing beam 212 or the frame beam 211. The specific fixing method is also not limited, and it can be screw fixing, snap fixing, slide fixing, etc., and a detachable fixing method is preferred, which is convenient for replacement when a certain LED module 22 is damaged. A limiting portion can also be further provided on the spacing beam 212 or the frame beam 211, and the LED module 22 is limited after installation so that the LED module 22 can be firmly fixed in the storage compartment. Preferably, the limiting portion can be a rotary limiting mechanism.
[0042] As an implementation method, the resonance speaker 23 is fixed on the back of one of the spacing beams 212, and the spacing beam 212 with the resonance speaker 23 fixed on the back is located in the middle of the box frame 21. Figure 4 It should be noted that the "middle position" here does not necessarily require to be the absolute center position of the box frame 21, but is intended to emphasize that it is within a certain range around the center position as much as possible.
[0043] As another implementation, the resonance speaker 23 may also be fixed on the back side of the frame beam 211 .
[0044] The fixing method of the resonance horn 23 is preferably a detachable fixing method, so as to facilitate replacement of the resonance horn 23 when it is damaged.
[0045] Figure 5 The structure of the LED screen provided by the second embodiment of the utility model is shown, including multiple LED boxes, each of which has a detachable connecting part on the outer side, and adjacent LED boxes are spliced and fixed through the detachable connecting part.
[0046] The detachable connection part can be in the form of a snap-fit connection, or an alignment hole is set on the side wall of the LED box, and the alignment holes of the two boxes to be spliced are connected and fixed by screws, wherein the above-mentioned "outer side surface" can be one or more of the upper side surface, lower side surface, left side surface, and right side surface of the LED box, which is convenient for splicing the LED box at the top, bottom, left or right.
[0047] in, Figure 5 The LED box shown includes a plurality of resonance boxes 50 , and the structure of the resonance boxes 50 is the same as the LED box provided in the first embodiment above.
[0048] As an example, the resonance box 50 may be located in the central area of the LED screen, such as Figure 5 As shown, this design allows the audience to feel that the center audio comes from the middle of the screen, which meets the requirement that the movie dialogue should come out from the middle of the screen. When the audience watches the protagonist speaking in the movie, the dialogue sound comes from the middle of the entire image, and the source direction is consistent with the protagonist image, achieving an ideal viewing effect.
[0049] The multiple resonance boxes 50 can produce sound simultaneously, so that the total volume can reach a high power (such as 108db at a distance of 1 meter), meeting the sound effect requirements of a cinema hall.
[0050] When the sound is emitted from the resonant speakers in the multiple resonant LED boxes 50, we require that the sound waves emitted by each resonant speaker and transmitted to the front of the screen are synchronized (or in-phase) to achieve the effect of sound pressure superposition. Otherwise, if the sound waves emitted by each resonant speaker have different phases, or even have an "anti-phase" relationship, the sound waves will cancel each other out in the air, and the sound pressure will be greatly reduced.
[0051] To achieve the effect that the sound waves emitted by each resonant speaker are synchronized, this application provides two implementation methods:
[0052] Method 1: Figure 6 As shown, the LED screen includes: an audio processor 51 and an audio power amplifier circuit 52.
[0053] The audio processor 51 is used to provide an analog audio signal;
[0054] The audio power amplifier circuit 52 is connected to the audio processor 51 and the resonant speakers of each resonant box, and is used to power amplify the analog audio signal, and provide the power-amplified analog audio signal to all the resonant speakers at the same time, driving all the resonant speakers to perform audio vibration.
[0055] In the first method, the same audio power amplifier circuit 52 is used to output and drive all the resonant speakers, which requires the power amplifier device to be relatively large and have sufficient power to drive all the resonant speakers at the same time.
[0056] Method 2: If Fig. 7A , Figure 7B As shown, the LED screen also includes a digital audio processor 53 for providing digital audio signals, and all LED boxes share one digital audio processor 53. Since the digital audio signal has high synchronization and real-time performance during transmission, and the delay time of each audio channel can be adjusted or compensated, each resonant speaker can receive the digital audio signal at the same time and can vibrate synchronously in the same phase.
[0057] There is no limit to the type of digital audio signal. For example, you can choose DANTE digital audio signal. DANTE digital audio signal complies with industrial standards. It is different from traditional audio devices that transmit audio signals through analog cables, which requires a lot of physical connections and wiring. Dante technology uses a standard Ethernet network to convert audio signals into digital data and transmit them in the network. This digital transmission method eliminates the limitations of analog cables and enables the transmission and sharing of audio signals on a global scale. Dante technology provides an advanced solution for the audio industry. Dante has the following advantages:
[0058] 1. Flexibility: Ethernet connection allows easy connection and communication between audio devices without special physical wiring.
[0059] 2. Scalability: Dante networks can be easily expanded to hundreds of audio channels to meet the needs of audio systems of different sizes and complexities.
[0060] 3. High quality: Dante's audio transmission has excellent sound quality and fidelity, and can provide a high-quality audio experience.
[0061] 4. Low latency: Dante's transmission latency is very low, ensuring the real-time and synchronization of audio signals.
[0062] 5. Simplified management: Through Dante Controller software, users can easily manage and configure the entire Dante network for fast audio routing and control.
[0063] Each resonant box 50 also includes a programmable digital amplifier, which uses digital signal control to achieve the effect of in-phase sound waves emitted by each resonant speaker. Figure 7B As shown, the digital power amplifier at least includes: a digital audio signal receiving module 54 , a digital-to-analog conversion module 55 , and an audio power amplifier module 56 .
[0064] A digital audio signal receiving module 54, connected to the digital audio processor, for receiving the DANTE digital audio signal;
[0065] A digital-to-analog conversion module 55, connected to the digital audio signal receiving module, for performing digital-to-analog conversion on the DANTE digital audio signal to obtain an analog audio signal;
[0066] The audio power amplifier module 56 is connected to the digital-to-analog conversion module, and is used to amplify the analog audio signal and provide it to the resonance speaker 23 .
[0067] In addition, the digital power amplifier may further include a power supply 57 for supplying power to the audio power amplifier module 56. The power supply 57 may reuse the power supply circuit 24 in FIG. 3 , or may be independent of the power supply circuit 24.
[0068] The third embodiment of the utility model provides a theater, such as Figure 8 As shown, it includes: an LED screen 81 and an auditorium 82.
[0069] The structure of the LED screen 81 is as described in the second embodiment above, and the video driving signal is received by the video processing unit of each box and distributed to the connectors of each LED module.
[0070] The auditorium 82 may be a one-layer or multi-layer stepped structure, facing the front of the LED screen 81 , which is the sound emitting surface of the LED screen 81 .
[0071] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
