Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of speaker technology, and in particular to an intelligent speaker system. Background Art

[0002] In the field of audio equipment, speakers and microphones are key components for sound playback and sound collection and often need to be used together. In order to facilitate the carrying of microphones, some speakers are equipped with storage compartments to store microphones. In actual use, users often store microphones in speakers without turning them off. At this time, the distance between the microphone and the speaker is too close, which is prone to howling, thus affecting the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] The main purpose of this application is to propose an intelligent speaker system, which aims to solve the problem in the related art that when the microphone is placed in the storage compartment of the speaker without being turned off, howling is easily generated, thereby affecting the user experience.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the smart speaker system proposed in this application includes:

[0005] A speaker box, wherein the speaker box is provided with a storage compartment and a first sensing element, wherein the storage compartment is used to store the microphone;

[0006] at least one microphone, wherein a second sensing element is disposed on the microphone;

[0007] The first sensing element is configured to, when the microphone is stored in the storage compartment, detect that the distance between the microphone and the sound box is less than or equal to a preset distance, and send a first control signal to the microphone to control the microphone to switch to a mute state or a shutdown state;

[0008] Alternatively, the second sensing element is configured to detect that when the microphone is stored in the storage compartment, the second sensing element detects that the distance between the microphone and the speaker is less than or equal to a preset distance, and sends a second control signal to the microphone to control the microphone to switch to a mute state or a power-off state.

[0009] In some embodiments, the first sensing element is a first magnet or a first Hall element, and the second sensing element is a second magnet or a second Hall element. When the first sensing element is the first magnet and the second sensing element is the second Hall element, if the microphone is stored in the storage bin, the second Hall element detects a change in the magnetic field to determine that the distance between the microphone and the speaker is less than or equal to a preset distance, and sends the second control signal to the microphone. When the first sensing element is the first Hall element and the second sensing element is the second magnet, if the microphone is stored in the storage bin, the first Hall element detects a change in the magnetic field to determine that the distance between the microphone and the speaker is less than or equal to a preset distance, and sends the first control signal to the microphone.

[0010] In some embodiments, a first charging element is disposed on the storage bin, and a second charging element is disposed on the microphone. When the microphone is stored in the storage bin, the second charging element abuts against the first charging element to charge the microphone.

[0011] In some embodiments, the first sensing element is the first charging element or the third Hall element, the second sensing element is the second charging element or the fourth Hall element, when the third Hall element is set on the speaker as the first sensing element, the second sensing element is the second charging element, and when the fourth Hall element is set on the microphone as the second sensing element, the first sensing element is the first charging element.

[0012] In some embodiments, the storage bin is horizontally arranged on the speaker box, and the microphone is horizontally placed in the storage bin for storage.

[0013] In some embodiments, the first sensing element is disposed in the middle of the storage bin, and the second sensing element is correspondingly disposed in the middle of the microphone.

[0014] In some embodiments, the first sensing element is respectively disposed at two ends of the storage bin, and the second sensing element is at least disposed at any one end of the microphone.

[0015] In some embodiments, the first sensing element is disposed at least at any one end of the storage bin, and the second sensing element is disposed at two ends of the microphone, respectively.

[0016] In some embodiments, the storage bin is vertically disposed on the speaker, the microphone is vertically inserted into the storage bin for storage, the first sensing element is disposed at the bottom of the storage bin, and the second sensing element is disposed at the bottom of the microphone.

[0017] In some embodiments, the first sensing element is a magnet or a Hall element. When the first sensing element is the magnet, the second sensing element is the Hall element. At this time, if the microphone is stored in the storage compartment, the Hall element detects a change in the magnetic field to determine that the distance between the microphone and the speaker is less than or equal to a preset distance, and sends the second control signal to the microphone. When the first sensing element is the Hall element, the second sensing element is the magnet. At this time, if the microphone is stored in the storage compartment, the Hall element detects a change in the magnetic field and sends the first control signal to the microphone.

[0018] The storage bin is horizontally arranged on the sound box, and the microphone is horizontally placed in the storage bin for storage;

[0019] A plurality of the second sensing elements are arranged on the same cross-section of the microphone, and a first sensing element is arranged on the same cross-section of the storage bin, so that when the microphone is stored in the storage bin at any angle, the first sensing element or the second sensing element can detect changes in the magnetic field.

[0020] In some embodiments, a first magnetic member is disposed on the speaker, and a second magnetic member is correspondingly disposed on the microphone, and there is an attraction force between the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member.

[0021] In some embodiments, the first sensing element is further configured to, when the microphone is taken out of the storage compartment, detect that the distance between the microphone and the speaker is greater than a preset distance, and send a third control signal to the microphone to control the microphone to switch to a normal state or a power-on state;

[0022] Alternatively, the second sensing element is further configured to, when the microphone is taken out of the storage compartment, detect that the distance between the microphone and the speaker is greater than a preset distance, and send a fourth control signal to the microphone to control the microphone to switch to a normal state or a power-on state.

[0023] The smart speaker system provided by the technical solution of the present application is provided with a first sensing element on the speaker and a second sensing element on the microphone. When the microphone is stored in a storage compartment, the first sensing element or the second sensing element can detect that the distance between the microphone and the speaker is less than or equal to a preset distance, thereby sending a control signal to the microphone to control the microphone to switch to a mute state or an off state, thereby ensuring that when the microphone is placed in the storage compartment of the speaker, no howling will be generated regardless of whether the microphone is turned off, thereby improving the user experience.

[0046] In the field of audio equipment, speakers and microphones are key components for sound playback and sound collection and often need to be used together. In order to facilitate the carrying of microphones, some speakers are equipped with storage compartments to store microphones. In actual use, users often store microphones in speakers without turning them off. At this time, the distance between the microphone and the speaker is too close, which is prone to howling, thus affecting the user experience.

[0047] In view of this, an embodiment of the present application proposes an intelligent speaker system, in which a first sensing element is arranged on the speaker, and a second sensing element is arranged on the microphone. When the microphone is stored in a storage compartment, the first sensing element or the second sensing element can detect that the distance between the microphone and the speaker is less than or equal to a preset distance, thereby sending a control signal to the microphone to control the microphone to switch to a mute state or an off state, thereby ensuring that when the microphone is placed in the storage compartment of the speaker, no howling will be generated regardless of whether the microphone is turned off, thereby improving the user experience.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1The smart speaker system 1 provided by the present application is shown. Specifically, the smart speaker system 1 may include a speaker 11 and at least one microphone 12. An electrical connection is established between the speaker 11 and the microphone 12, so that the sound collected by the microphone 12 can be transmitted to the speaker 11, and the speaker 11 can play the sound collected by the microphone 12 through a sound-emitting unit. In addition, the speaker 11 can also send a control signal to the microphone 12 to control the microphone 12 to perform a corresponding operation.

[0049] The speaker 11 may include one or more storage bins 111 and first sensing elements 112. The number of storage bins 111 may correspond to the number of microphones 12, and the storage bins 111 may be used to store microphones 12. The number of first sensing elements 112 may correspond to the number of storage bins 111, and an electrical connection is established between the first sensing elements 112 and the speaker 11.

[0050] Each microphone 12 may be provided with a second inductive element 121 . An electrical connection is established between the second inductive element 121 and the microphone 12 .

[0051] The first sensing element 112 is configured to detect that when the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111, the first sensing element 112 detects that the distance between the microphone 12 and the sound box 11 is less than or equal to a preset distance, and sends a first control signal to the microphone 12 to control the microphone 12 to switch to a mute state or a power-off state.

[0052] Alternatively, the second sensing element 121 is configured such that when the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111, the second sensing element 121 detects that the distance between the microphone 12 and the sound box 11 is less than or equal to a preset distance, and sends a second control signal to the microphone 12 to control the microphone 12 to switch to a mute state or a power-off state.

[0053] Among them, the first control signal is generated by the first sensing element 112, and is used to control the microphone 12 to switch to a mute state or shut down. The second control signal is generated by the second sensing element 121, and is also used to control the microphone 12 to switch to a mute state or shut down. It should be noted that the above-mentioned storage is complete storage, including the following three situations: 1. The microphone 12 is completely entered into the storage compartment, and the top of the microphone 12 is lower than the opening of the storage compartment 111; 2. After the microphone 12 enters the storage compartment 111, it is covered by another component (such as a rotatably connected screen), and the microphone 12 is invisible after storage; 3. The microphone 12 is completely entered into the storage compartment 111, and the top of the microphone 12 is lower than the opening of the storage compartment 111, and is then covered by another component (such as a rotatably connected screen).

[0054] It is understandable that when the microphone 12 is in a mute state, the microphone 12 can close its audio input channel or reduce the volume to the lowest level to achieve a mute state. In this way, even if the speaker 11 is playing sounds, no howling will be generated because the microphone 12 captures these sounds. When the microphone 12 is in a powered-off state, the microphone 12 will completely stop working, thereby completely avoiding the occurrence of howling.

[0055] In an embodiment of the present application, when the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111 of the speaker 11, the first sensing element 112 can detect that the distance between the microphone 12 and the speaker 11 is less than or equal to a preset distance through a change in the magnetic field or an infrared signal. At this time, it can be considered that the microphone 12 has been stored in the storage compartment 111 of the speaker 11. At this time, the first sensing element 112 can generate a first control signal and send the first control signal to the speaker 11 through an electrical connection, so that the speaker 11 sends the first control signal to the microphone 12, and then the microphone 12 controls itself to switch to a mute state or a power-off state according to the first control signal, thereby preventing howling.

[0056] In another embodiment of the present application, when the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111 of the sound box 11, the second sensing element 121 can detect that the distance between the microphone 12 and the sound box 11 is less than or equal to a preset distance through magnetic field changes or infrared signals. At this time, it can be considered that the microphone 12 has been stored in the storage compartment 111 of the sound box 11. At this time, the second sensing element 121 can generate a second control signal and send the second control signal to the microphone 12 through an electrical connection, so that the microphone 12 controls itself to switch to a mute state or a power-off state according to the second control signal, thereby preventing howling.

[0057] The smart speaker system 1 provided by the technical solution of the present application is provided with a first sensing element 112 on the speaker 11, and a second sensing element 121 is provided on the microphone 12. When the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111, the first sensing element 112 or the second sensing element 121 can detect that the distance between the microphone 12 and the speaker 11 is less than or equal to the preset distance, thereby sending a control signal to the microphone 12 to control the microphone 12 to switch to a mute state or an off state, thereby ensuring that when the microphone 12 is placed in the storage compartment 111 of the speaker 11, no howling will be generated regardless of whether the microphone 12 is turned off, thereby improving the user experience.

[0058] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3In some embodiments of the present application, the first sensing element 112 is a first magnet 1121 or a first Hall element 1122, and the second sensing element 121 is a second magnet 1211 or a second Hall element 1212. When the first sensing element 112 is the first magnet 1121, the second sensing element 121 is the second Hall element 1212. At this time, if the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111, the second Hall element 1212 detects a change in the magnetic field to determine that the distance between the microphone 12 and the speaker 11 is less than or equal to a preset distance, and sends a second control signal to the microphone 12. When the first sensing element 112 is the first Hall element 1122, the second sensing element 121 is the second magnet 1211. At this time, if the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111, the first Hall element 1122 detects a change in the magnetic field to determine that the distance between the microphone 12 and the speaker 11 is less than or equal to a preset distance, and sends a first control signal to the microphone 12.

[0059] It can be understood that there are two ways of setting the elements in this embodiment. In the first way of setting the elements, the first sensing element 112 on the speaker 11 is the first magnet 1121, and the second sensing element 121 on the microphone 12 is the second Hall element 1212. In the second way of setting the elements, the first sensing element 112 on the speaker 11 is the first Hall element 1122, and the second sensing element 121 on the microphone 12 is the second magnet 1211. The first sensing element 112 can be set in the storage bin 111, and is set corresponding to the second sensing element 121.

[0060] In the implementation mode of the present application, Figure 2 As shown, when the first element setting method is adopted, a first magnet 1121 is provided on the speaker 11, and a second Hall element 1212 is correspondingly provided on the microphone 12. In this case, the first magnet 1121 will generate a stable magnetic field in the storage compartment 111. When the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111, the second Hall element 1212 will approach the first magnet 1121 of the storage compartment 111, and the second Hall element 1212 can detect the change in magnetic field strength. When the microphone 12 is completely stored in the storage compartment 111, and the second Hall element 1212 detects that the magnetic field strength reaches or exceeds the preset threshold, it can be considered that the distance between the microphone 12 and the speaker 11 is less than or equal to the preset distance, and the second Hall element 1212 can send a second control signal to the microphone 12 through an electrical connection, so that the microphone 12 controls itself to switch to a mute state or a shutdown state according to the second control signal to prevent howling.

[0061] Similarly, if Figure 3As shown, when the second element setting method is adopted, a first Hall element 1122 is provided on the speaker 11, and a second magnet 1211 is correspondingly provided on the microphone 12. When the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111, the second magnet 1211 will approach the first Hall element 1122 of the storage compartment 111, and the first Hall element 1122 can detect the change in magnetic field strength. When the first Hall element 1122 determines that the distance between the microphone 12 and the speaker 11 is less than or equal to the preset distance according to the change in magnetic field strength, it can generate a first control signal and send the first control signal to the speaker 11 through an electrical connection, so that the speaker 11 sends the first control signal to the microphone 12, and then the microphone 12 controls itself to switch to a mute state or a power-off state according to the first control signal, thereby preventing howling.

[0062] The embodiment of the present application respectively arranges a Hall element and a magnet on the microphone 12 and the speaker 11. When the Hall element and the magnet are relatively close to each other, it is recognized that the microphone 12 has been stored in the speaker 11 based on the change in the magnetic field, and then the microphone 12 is controlled to switch to a mute state or a power-off state, thereby preventing howling.

[0063] Understandable, yes. Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 The shapes of the Hall element and magnet shown are only for illustration. The shapes of the Hall element and magnet can be various, and this application does not limit this. Therefore, the Hall element and magnet in the drawings should be distinguished according to the figure numbers, rather than just by shape. In addition, the Hall element and magnet can be set on the surface of the storage bin 111 and the microphone 12, or can be set inside the storage bin 111 and the microphone 12, and this embodiment of the application does not limit this.

[0064] Please refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments of the present application, a first charging element 1123 is provided on the storage compartment 111, and a second charging element 1213 is provided on the microphone 12. When the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111, the second charging element 1213 abuts against the first charging element 1123 to charge the microphone 12.

[0065] In an embodiment of the present application, the first charging element 1123 and the second charging element 1213 are arranged correspondingly. When the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111, the first charging element 1123 and the second charging element 1213 will abut against each other to form a charging circuit, thereby charging the microphone 12.

[0066] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6In some specific embodiments of the present application, the first sensing element 112 is the first charging element 1123 or the third Hall element 1124, and the second sensing element 121 is the second charging element 1213 or the fourth Hall element 1214. When the third Hall element 1124 is set on the speaker 11 as the first sensing element 112, the second sensing element 121 is the second charging element 1213; when the fourth Hall element 1214 is set on the microphone 12 as the second sensing element 121, the first sensing element 112 is the first charging element 1123.

[0067] In the embodiment of the present application, it can be understood that when the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111, the first charging element 1123 will abut against the second charging element 1213, which can trigger the Hall element arranged near the charging element, thereby generating a control signal to control the microphone 12 to switch to a mute state or a power-off state.

[0068] Specifically, this embodiment has two component settings. In the first component setting, the first sensing element 112 on the speaker 11 is the third Hall element 1124, and the second sensing element 121 on the microphone 12 is the second charging element 1213. In the second component setting, the first sensing element 112 on the speaker 11 is the first charging element 1123, and the second sensing element 121 on the microphone 12 is the fourth Hall element 1214.

[0069] More specifically, Figure 5 As shown, when the first element setting method is adopted, the third Hall element 1124 and the first charging element 1123 are arranged on the speaker 11, and the second charging element 1213 is correspondingly arranged on the microphone 12. In this case, when the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111, the second charging element 1213 will abut against the first charging element 1123 of the storage compartment 111. At this time, the third Hall element 1124 arranged near the first charging element 1123 can detect the change in magnetic field strength. At this time, the third Hall element 1124 is the first sensing element 112, and the second charging element 1213 is the second sensing element 121. When the third Hall element 1124 detects a change in the magnetic field or the magnetic field strength reaches a preset threshold, it can be considered that the distance between the microphone 12 and the speaker 11 is less than or equal to the preset distance. The third Hall element 1124 can generate a first control signal and send the first control signal to the speaker 11 through an electrical connection, so that the speaker 11 sends the first control signal to the microphone 12, and then the microphone 12 controls itself to switch to a mute state or a power-off state according to the first control signal, thereby preventing howling.

[0070] like Figure 6As shown, when the second element setting method is adopted, the speaker 11 is provided with a first charging element 1123, and the microphone 12 is provided with a fourth Hall element 1214 and a second charging element 1213. In this case, when the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111, the second charging element 1213 will abut against the first charging element 1123 of the storage compartment 111. At this time, the fourth Hall element 1214 arranged near the second charging element 1213 can detect the change of magnetic field strength. At this time, the fourth Hall element 1214 is the second sensing element 121, and the first charging element 1123 is the first sensing element 112. When the fourth Hall element 1214 detects the change of magnetic field or the magnetic field strength reaches the preset threshold, it can be considered that the distance between the microphone 12 and the speaker 11 is less than or equal to the preset distance. The fourth Hall element 1214 can generate a second control signal and send the second control signal to the microphone 12 through an electrical connection, so that the microphone 12 controls itself to switch to a mute state or a shutdown state according to the second control signal, thereby preventing howling.

[0071] In the embodiment of the present application, when charging elements respectively arranged on the microphone 12 and the speaker 11 come into contact, a Hall element arranged near the charging element is triggered to recognize that the microphone 12 has been stored in the speaker 11, and then the microphone 12 is controlled to switch to a mute state or a power-off state, thereby preventing howling.

[0072] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the storage compartment 111 is horizontally arranged on the sound box 11, and the microphone 12 is horizontally placed in the storage compartment 111 for storage.

[0073] like Figure 7 As shown, in some specific embodiments of the present application, the first sensing element 112 is disposed in the middle of the storage compartment 111 , and the second sensing element 121 is correspondingly disposed in the middle of the microphone 12 .

[0074] In the embodiment of the present application, the first sensing element 112 is disposed in the middle of the storage compartment 111, and the second sensing element 121 is correspondingly disposed in the middle of the microphone 12. Therefore, whether the microphone 12 is placed in the storage compartment 111 upright or inverted, the corresponding positions of the second sensing element 121 in the middle of the microphone 12 and the first sensing element 112 in the middle of the storage compartment 111 remain unchanged, thereby ensuring that the first sensing element 112 can be aligned with the second sensing element 121. At this time, the first sensing element 112 or the second sensing element 121 can detect that the distance between the microphone 12 and the sound box 11 is less than or equal to the preset distance, thereby sending the first control signal or the second control signal to the microphone 12 to control the microphone 12 to switch to a mute state or a shutdown state.

[0075] The embodiment of the present application arranges the first sensing element 112 in the middle of the storage compartment 111, and correspondingly arranges the second sensing element 121 in the middle of the microphone 12. Therefore, no matter whether the microphone 12 is placed right side up or upside down in the storage compartment 111, the microphone 12 can be controlled to be switched to a mute state or a power-off state to prevent howling, thereby improving the user experience.

[0076] It is understandable that the second sensing element 121 can be disposed in the center of the microphone 12 , and the first sensing element 112 can be correspondingly disposed in the center of the bottom of the storage compartment 111 .

[0077] like Figure 8 As shown, in some specific embodiments of the present application, the first sensing element 112 is respectively disposed at two ends of the storage bin 111 , and the second sensing element 121 is at least disposed at any one end of the microphone 12 .

[0078] In the embodiment of the present application, the second sensing element 121 can be arranged at one end of the microphone 12, and the first sensing element 112 can be correspondingly arranged at both ends of the bottom of the storage compartment 111. At this time, no matter whether the microphone 12 is placed in the storage compartment 111 upright or upside down, the second sensing element 121 at one end of the microphone 12 can be aligned with any one of the two first sensing elements 112 at the bottom of the storage compartment 111. At this time, the first sensing element 112 or the second sensing element 121 can detect that the distance between the microphone 12 and the sound box 11 is less than or equal to the preset distance, thereby sending the first control signal or the second control signal to the microphone 12 to control the microphone 12 to switch to a mute state or a shutdown state.

[0079] For example, it is assumed that the head of the microphone 12 is placed on the left side of the storage compartment 111 as upright placement, and the tail of the microphone 12 is placed on the left side of the storage compartment 111 as inverted placement, and it is assumed that the second sensing element 121 is set at the tail of the microphone 12. When the microphone 12 is placed upright, the second sensing element 121 at the tail of the microphone 12 can be aligned with the first sensing element 112 on the right side of the storage compartment 111, so that the microphone 12 is switched to a silent state or turned off to prevent howling. When the microphone 12 is inverted, the second sensing element 121 at the tail of the microphone 12 can be aligned with the first sensing element 112 on the left side of the storage compartment 111, so that the microphone 12 is switched to a silent state or turned off to prevent howling.

[0080] The embodiment of the present application arranges the first sensing element 112 at both ends of the storage bin 111 respectively, and arranges the second sensing element 121 at at least one end of the microphone 12. Therefore, no matter the microphone 12 is placed right side up or upside down in the storage bin 111, the microphone 12 can be controlled to be switched to a mute state or a power-off state to prevent howling, thereby improving the user experience.

[0081] like Fig. 9 As shown, in some specific embodiments of the present application, the first sensing element 112 is disposed at least at any one end of the storage bin 111 , and the second sensing element 121 is disposed at both ends of the microphone 12 .

[0082] In the embodiment of the present application, the second sensing element 121 can be arranged at both ends of the microphone 12, and the first sensing element 112 can be arranged at any end of the bottom of the storage compartment 111. At this time, no matter the microphone 12 is placed in the storage compartment 111 upright or upside down, the first sensing element 112 at one end of the storage compartment 111 can be aligned with any one of the two second sensing elements 121 of the microphone 12. At this time, the first sensing element 112 or the second sensing element 121 can detect that the distance between the microphone 12 and the sound box 11 is less than or equal to the preset distance, thereby sending the first control signal or the second control signal to the microphone 12 to control the microphone 12 to switch to a mute state or a shutdown state.

[0083] For example, it is assumed that the head of the microphone 12 is placed on the left side of the storage compartment 111 as upright placement, and the tail of the microphone 12 is placed on the left side of the storage compartment 111 as inverted placement, and it is assumed that the second sensing element 121 is set at the tail of the microphone 12. When the microphone 12 is placed upright, the second sensing element 121 at the tail of the microphone 12 can be aligned with the first sensing element 112 on the right side of the storage compartment 111, so that the microphone 12 is switched to a silent state or turned off to prevent howling. When the microphone 12 is inverted, the second sensing element 121 at the tail of the microphone 12 can be aligned with the first sensing element 112 on the left side of the storage compartment 111, so that the microphone 12 is switched to a silent state or turned off to prevent howling.

[0084] The embodiment of the present application arranges the first sensing element 112 at any end of the storage bin 111, and arranges the second sensing element 121 at both ends of the microphone 12, so that the microphone 12 can be controlled to be switched to a mute state or a power-off state regardless of whether the microphone 12 is placed right side up or upside down in the storage bin 111, so as to prevent howling and improve the user experience.

[0085] like Fig.10 As shown, in some other embodiments of the present application, the storage compartment 111 is vertically arranged on the speaker 11, the microphone 12 is vertically inserted into the storage compartment 111 for storage, the first sensing element 112 is arranged at the bottom of the storage compartment 111, and the second sensing element 121 is arranged at the bottom of the microphone 12.

[0086] In the embodiment of the present application, when the storage bin 111 is vertically arranged on the sound box 11, the microphone 12 can be vertically inserted into the storage bin 111 for storage. The first sensing element 112 is arranged at the bottom of the storage bin 111, and the second sensing element 121 is arranged at the bottom of the microphone 12. When the microphone 12 is vertically inserted into the storage bin 111, the second sensing element 121 at the bottom of the microphone 12 is close to the first sensing element 112 at the bottom of the storage bin 111. At this time, the first sensing element 112 or the second sensing element 121 can detect that the distance between the microphone 12 and the sound box 11 is less than or equal to the preset distance, thereby sending the first control signal or the second control signal to the microphone 12 to control the microphone 12 to switch to a mute state or a shutdown state.

[0087] like Figures 11 to 13 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the first sensing element 112 is a magnet or a Hall element. When the first sensing element 112 is a magnet, the second sensing element 121 is a Hall element. At this time, if the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111, the Hall element detects the change in the magnetic field to determine that the distance between the microphone 12 and the sound box 11 is less than or equal to the preset distance, and sends a second control signal to the microphone 12. When the first sensing element 112 is a Hall element, the second sensing element 121 is a magnet. At this time, if the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111, the Hall element detects the change in the magnetic field and sends a first control signal to the microphone 12;

[0088] The storage compartment 111 is horizontally arranged on the sound box 11, and the microphone 12 is horizontally placed in the storage compartment 111 for storage;

[0089] A plurality of second sensing elements 121 are arranged on the same cross section of the microphone 12, and a first sensing element 112 is arranged on the same cross section of the storage bin 111, so that when the microphone 12 is stored in the storage bin 111 at any angle, the first sensing element 112 or the second sensing element 121 can detect the magnetic field change.

[0090] In an embodiment of the present application, when the storage bin 111 is horizontally arranged on the sound box 11, in order to ensure that the Hall element can be successfully triggered by the magnet, the embodiment of the present application is provided with a plurality of second sensing elements 121 on the same cross-section of the microphone 12, and a first sensing element 112 is provided on the same cross-section of the storage bin 111, so that when the microphone 12 is stored in the storage bin 111 at any angle, the first sensing element 112 or the second sensing element 121 can detect the change in the magnetic field, thereby ensuring that the microphone 12 can be smoothly controlled to be switched to a mute state or a power-off state to prevent howling.

[0091] Specifically, Fig.12As shown, in some specific embodiments of the present application, a plurality of second Hall elements 1212 are arranged on the same cross-section of the microphone 12 , and a first magnet 1121 is arranged on the same cross-section of the storage bin 111 .

[0092] like Fig.13 As shown, in some other specific embodiments of the present application, a plurality of second magnets 1211 are arranged on the same cross-section of the microphone 12 , and a first Hall element 1122 is arranged on the same cross-section of the storage bin 111 .

[0093] It is understandable that if the microphone 12 is square, the second sensing elements 121 may be disposed on two opposite sides of the square microphone 12 , or the second sensing elements 121 may be disposed on four sides of the directional microphone 12 .

[0094] In some embodiments of the present application, a first magnetic member is disposed on the speaker 11, and a second magnetic member is correspondingly disposed on the microphone 12, and there is an attraction force between the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member.

[0095] In an embodiment of the present application, a first magnetic member and a second magnetic member that have an attractive force on each other are respectively provided on the speaker 11 and the microphone 12 , so as to fix the microphone 12 when the microphone 12 is stored in the storage compartment 111 .

[0096] In some embodiments of the present application, the first sensing element 112 is further configured to, when the microphone 12 is taken out of the storage compartment 111, detect that the distance between the microphone 12 and the sound box 11 is greater than a preset distance, and send a third control signal to the microphone 12 to control the microphone 12 to switch to a normal state or a power-on state;

[0097] Alternatively, the second sensing element 121 is also configured such that when the microphone 12 is taken out of the storage compartment 111, the second sensing element 121 detects that the distance between the microphone 12 and the sound box 11 is greater than a preset distance, and sends a fourth control signal to the microphone 12 to control the microphone 12 to switch to a normal state or a power-on state.

[0098] In the embodiment of the present application, in addition to being able to detect that the distance between the microphone 12 and the sound box 11 is less than or equal to the preset distance through the first sensing element 112 and the second sensing element 121, thereby controlling the microphone 12 to switch to a mute state or a power-off state to prevent howling, the embodiment of the present application can also detect that the distance between the microphone 12 and the sound box 11 is greater than the preset distance through the first sensing element 112 and the second sensing element 121, thereby controlling the microphone 12 to switch to a normal state or a power-on state, so that the microphone 12 can be turned on or restored to normal after being taken out, thereby improving the user experience.

[0099] The specific implementation method of the present application is similar to the above-mentioned implementation method of detecting that the distance between the microphone 12 and the speaker 11 is less than or equal to the preset distance through the first sensing element 112 and the second sensing element 121, and will not be repeated here.

[0100] In some embodiments of the present application, the first sensing element 112 is a first infrared sensor or a storage bin body, and the second sensing element 121 is a second infrared sensor or a microphone body. When the first sensing element 112 is a first infrared sensor, the second sensing element 121 is a microphone body. At this time, if the microphone 12 is stored in the storage bin 111, the first sensing element 112 detects that the microphone body is approaching to determine that the distance between the microphone 12 and the speaker 11 is less than or equal to a preset distance, and sends a first control signal to the microphone 12. When the first sensing element 112 is a storage bin body, the second sensing element 121 is a second infrared sensor. At this time, if the microphone 12 is stored in the storage bin 111, the second infrared sensor detects that the storage bin body is approaching to determine that the distance between the microphone 12 and the speaker 11 is less than or equal to a preset distance, and sends a second control signal to the microphone 12.

[0101] In an embodiment of the present application, an infrared sensor is used to detect the distance between the microphone 12 and the speaker 11. When the distance between the microphone 12 and the speaker 11 is less than or equal to a preset distance, the microphone 12 can be controlled to be switched to a mute state or a shutdown state.

[0102] The above description is only an optional embodiment of the present application, and does not limit the patent scope of the present application. All equivalent structural transformations made by using the contents of the present application specification and drawings under the inventive concept of the present application, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
