[0040] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment discloses an audio collection component, including a connecting rod 310 and a MEMS microphone 320, wherein the connecting rod 310 has a first segment 311 and a second segment 312, wherein the first segment 311 is provided with an assembly plane 313, wherein a first end of the second segment 312 is connected to the first segment 311, and a first distance difference is provided between the second segment 312 and the assembly plane 313, such as Figure 2 As shown by the mark H1 in the figure, the MEMS microphone 320 is installed at the second end of the second segment 312 and is located on the same side as the first segment 311. There is a second distance difference between the collection surface 321 of the MEMS microphone 320 and the assembly plane 313 of the first segment 311, as shown in FIG. Figure 2As shown by mark H2, when connected to an external structure (such as the assembly board 200 below) through the assembly plane 313, the distance between the collection surface 321 of the MEMS microphone 320 and the external structure is the second distance difference, so that the distance between the MEMS microphone 320 and the sound outlet to be collected (i.e., the sound outlet 212 below) can be set to facilitate signal collection.

[0041] Compared with ECM (electret capacitor) microphones, the sensitivity of MEMS microphone 320 is not affected by temperature, vibration, humidity and time, and has high heat resistance. MEMS microphone 320 can withstand high-temperature reflow soldering during processing without affecting performance. MEMS microphone 320 can provide external bias through ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit) chip. Effective bias can enable MEMS microphone 320 to maintain stable acoustic and electrical parameters throughout the operating temperature range, and can also support microphone designs with different sensitivities. MEMS microphone 320 has a high power supply rejection ratio, which can effectively suppress fluctuations in power supply voltage, and MEMS microphone 320 is integrated with broadband RF (radio frequency) suppression function, which can effectively suppress radio frequency interference. In addition, MEMS microphone 320 is small in size and light in weight, and the size of the vibration film inside MEMS microphone 320 is smaller, so it generates less vibration when collecting sound signals.

[0042] In order to solve the problems of large size, signal attenuation, poor consistency and unstable sensitivity of the test hardware ECM microphone, the MEMS microphone 320 is considered to be used to replace the traditional ECM microphone for testing the speaker device. The advantage is that it is small in size. Compared with the currently widely used ECM microphone, the MEMS microphone 320 has stronger heat resistance, vibration resistance and anti-RF interference performance. Due to its strong heat resistance, the MEMS microphone 320 can adopt a fully automatic surface mount (SMT) production process, while most ECM microphones require manual soldering. For production testing, while reducing the production cost advantage, it can also provide a higher degree of design freedom to match the differentiated appearance design of the corresponding product, and meet the closer test position distance and test requirements. It can be seen that the advantages of the MEMS microphone 320, such as small size, good heat resistance, good consistency, good stability, high reliability and anti-RF interference, are also applicable to the acoustic performance test of speaker devices.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 1 The MEMS microphone 320 is provided with a connector 322, and external communication and power supply are performed through the connector 322. For example, the MEMS microphone 320 is communicated with an external board through the connector 322, thereby being powered through the connector 322 and transmitting the collected signal to the external board to facilitate analysis of the collected signal.

[0044] In order to facilitate understanding of the purpose of the audio collection component of this embodiment, a speaker testing device is used as an application example for explanation below.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 3 This embodiment discloses a speaker testing device, including a soundproof box, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The soundproof box includes a box body 100 and the above-mentioned audio collection component. The box body 100 has a front side wall, a rear side wall, and multiple side walls connected to the front side wall and the rear side wall, such as an upper side wall, a lower side wall, a left side wall, and a right side wall. A sound insulation layer 101 is connected to the rear side wall and the multiple side walls. A signal collection cavity 102 is formed between the sound insulation layer 101 and the front side wall. In some application examples, a sound outlet 212 is provided on the front side wall, and in other application examples, an assembly plate 200 is installed on the front side wall, and a baffle 210 is installed on the assembly plate 200. Please refer to Figure 7 The first surface of the baffle 210 is provided with a template recess 211, and a sound outlet 212 is provided in the template recess 211 and penetrates to the second surface of the baffle 210. The microphone is installed on the second surface of the assembly board 200 and is located in the signal collection cavity 102, and the position is adapted to the sound outlet 212. The sound insulation layer 101 forms a closed signal collection cavity 102 in the box 100, and the microphone for collecting sound signals is installed in the signal collection cavity 102, so that the sound signal transmitted through the sound outlet 212 can be collected, which can reduce the interference of environmental factors and is conducive to improving the accuracy of sound signal collection.

[0046] When in use, the front side of the baffle 210 is provided with an upper template 10 and a lower template 20 capable of closing and separating the molds. The speaker product to be tested is placed in the product accommodating recess of the lower template 20. After the upper template 10 and the lower template 20 are closed, they are inserted into the template recess 211 and abut against the baffle 210, so that the sound outlet of the speaker product faces the sound outlet 212 of the baffle 210, so as to seal the sound outlet of the speaker product, which is beneficial to reduce the interference of environmental factors.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 5 The connecting rod 310 of the audio collection component is installed on the second surface of the assembly board 200, and the MEMS microphone 320 is installed on the connecting rod 310 and has a first distance gap with the baffle 210, that is, the second distance difference mentioned above, so that the MEMS microphone 320 is placed at the first distance gap of the sound outlet 212, which is beneficial to improve the stability of the test.

[0048] In order to improve the anti-interference ability, the sound insulation layer 101 is a sponge layer or a foam layer, which can effectively absorb the noise, vibration and other interference in the environment, reduce the interference of environmental factors on the signal collection cavity 102, and help improve the accuracy of signal collection.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 8 , a first assembly recess 201 is provided on the assembly plate 200, and the baffle 210 is installed in the first assembly recess 201. During the assembly process, the baffle 210 can be quickly positioned, which is conducive to improving the assembly efficiency. A second assembly recess 202 is provided on the assembly plate 200 and located on the upper side of the first assembly recess 201. The second assembly recess 202 is used to install an external lifting and translational module, which is convenient for assembly and positioning, and is conducive to improving the assembly efficiency. A third assembly recess 203 is provided on the assembly plate 200 and located on the lower side of the first assembly recess 201. The third assembly recess 203 is used to install an external linear motion module, which is convenient for assembly and positioning, and is conducive to improving the assembly efficiency. An assembly blind hole 204 is provided on the assembly plate 200. For example, the assembly blind hole 204 is used to assemble the baffle 210, the lifting and translational module, and the linear motion module. The assembly blind hole 204 does not penetrate the assembly plate 200, which can reduce the penetration of interference factors such as water vapor and noise into the box 100, which is conducive to improving the accuracy of the test.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 7 In order to improve the accuracy of the test, a sealing ring 213 is provided on the baffle 210 and in the template recess 211. During the test, the external upper template 10 and the lower template 20 are combined and abutted against the baffle 210. The sealing ring 213 can seal the connection position between the baffle 210 and the upper template 10 and the lower template 20, thereby reducing the interference of environmental factors on the sound outlet 212, thereby improving the accuracy of the test.

[0051] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
