Obviously, the accompanying drawings in the following description are only some embodiments of the present application. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other accompanying drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative efforts.

[0029] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present application more obvious and understandable, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation manners. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0030] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a schematic structural diagram of an intelligent sound and light label provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown. The intelligent sound and light label can also be called a light bar. The intelligent sound and light label can communicate with a terminal through a wireless communication protocol. For example, the wireless communication protocol is a 2.4G protocol. In practical applications, users can place the intelligent sound and light label at the position corresponding to the target item in the warehouse and store the mapping relationship between the target item and the intelligent sound and light label. When it is necessary to find the target item, a signal can be sent through the terminal. After receiving the signal, the intelligent sound and light label can emit a sound and light up the light, and then the user can find the target item through the sound and light and turn off the sound and light after finding the target item.

[0031] Such as Figure 2 , the intelligent sound and light label includes a housing 10, a circuit board 20, a light-emitting device 30, a buzzer 40, and a battery assembly 50. The circuit board 20, the light-emitting device 30, the buzzer 40, and the battery assembly 50 are encapsulated in the housing 10.

[0032] For the housing 10: The housing 10 includes an upper housing 11 and a lower housing 12, which are mating with each other, and a receiving cavity is formed between the upper housing 11 and the lower housing 12. In some examples, the upper housing 11 and the lower housing 12 can be integrally formed or formed by assembling components.

[0033] In some embodiments of the present application, such as Figure 3 , a light guide rod 121 is provided on one side of the lower housing 12 facing the receiving cavity.

[0034] Among them, the light guide rod 121 (Light Guide Rod or Light Pipe) is an optical element designed based on the principle of total internal reflection of light propagating inside a transparent medium, and is used to guide light from one end to the other end.

[0035] In some examples, the light guide rod 121 can be made of a material with high transparency, such as polycarbonate (PC, PolyCarbonate), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA, Poly Methyl Meth Acrylate). Of course, other similar transparent plastics or glasses can also be used. These materials have a high refractive index, which can ensure that light is reflected as many times as possible inside the light guide rod 121 without escaping.

[0036] In some examples, the light guide rod 121 can help improve the overall effect of the light source. The light guide rod 121 adjusts the light distribution by using different internal or external structures (such as engraving, coating, or adding a diffusing agent) to generate a specific lighting pattern or meet special lighting requirements, such as wide-angle light emission, uniform surface light source, or narrow beam focused light.

[0037] In the embodiments of the present application, by providing the light guide rod 121 in the intelligent acoustic-optical label and using the outer packaging material with a high refractive index, it is ensured that light is reflected as many times as possible inside the light guide rod 121 without escaping until the diffuse reflection layer, which can reduce the concentration of heat and maintain the stability and efficiency of the light, thereby improving the lighting effect in the intelligent acoustic-optical label.

[0038] In some embodiments of the present application, such as Figure 3 , the lower housing 12 includes a bearing portion 122 and a mating portion 123 that surrounds the bearing portion 122 and protrudes toward the upper housing 11. The light guide rod 121 is provided on one side of the bearing portion 122 facing the receiving cavity, and one or more support portions are provided between the light guide rod 121 and the mating portion 123.

[0039] In some examples, the lower housing 12 can be mated with the upper housing 11 through the mating portion 123.

[0040] In some embodiments of the present application, the light guide column 121 includes at least two. The support portion includes a first support portion 124 and a second support portion 125. The first support portion 124 is disposed between adjacent light guide columns 121, and the second support portion 125 is disposed between the light guide column 121 closest to the mating portion 123 among the at least two light guide columns 121 and the mating portion 123.

[0041] In some examples, only one light guide column 121 may be provided, and the second support portion 125 is disposed between this one light guide column 121 and the mating portion 123.

[0042] In the embodiments of the present application, since the full light guide column 121 will increase the material and production costs, the effect of the light guide column 121 can be achieved in the form of a structural column. The light guide column 121 and the structural column have the same function, so that the light guide effect and visual brightness can be improved without increasing the cost, and the structural strength of the outer package can be improved, and the influence on the light-emitting effect caused by the oxidation and wear of the outer package can be reduced.

[0043] In some embodiments of the present application, the light guide column 121 is straight or bent. For example, when the light guide column is bent, the light guide column can be arc-shaped, such as Figure 3 two arc-shaped light guide columns.

[0044] In practical applications, the light guide column 121 can adopt a straight shape according to the design and space limitations of different intelligent acoustic-optical tags, or it can be flexible or have a specific bending angle.

[0045] In some embodiments of the present application, the upper housing 11 and the lower housing 12 are provided with a diffuse reflection layer in the area opposite to the light guide column 121. In some examples, in order to increase the light effect, the upper housing 11 and the lower housing 12 are provided with a diffuse reflection layer in the area within a preset range opposite to the light guide column 121. The preset range can be determined according to the specific dimensions of the upper housing 11 and the lower housing 12. For example, the preset range is 1 cm - 5 cm.

[0046] Among them, diffuse reflection is a reflection phenomenon that occurs when light irradiates a rough surface. Opposite to it is specular reflection, which usually occurs on a smooth surface. The reflected light forms a concentrated light beam at a certain angle, while diffuse reflection is different from specular reflection. It scatters the incident light in multiple different directions, so that the surface of the irradiated object seems to have the same brightness from any angle.

[0047] In the embodiments of the present application, a diffuse reflection layer is provided through the intelligent sound and light label. The light after diffuse reflection is not reflected in a single direction, but scattered in all directions, enabling the object to be visible from any angle of view, producing a relatively uniform lighting effect. Compared with specular reflection, the light effect produced by diffuse reflection is softer, without causing strong reflected light or glare, making the visual experience more comfortable.

[0048] Moreover, by providing a light guide column 121 and a diffuse reflection layer in the intelligent sound and light label, integrating the dual functions of the light guide column 121 and diffuse reflection, it is possible to improve the light transmission effect and visual brightness of the intelligent sound and light label, and enhance the light search effect of the intelligent sound and light label only by optimizing the structural design of the outer package without increasing power consumption, upgrading the light-emitting device 30, or increasing costs.

[0049] Regarding the circuit board 20:

[0050] The circuit board 20 is disposed in the accommodating cavity.

[0051] In some embodiments of the present application, such as Figure 3 , the lower housing 12 is provided with at least two limiting portions 126, and the circuit board 20 is limited within the area formed by the at least two limiting portions 126. Through the setting of the limiting portions 126, the circuit board 20 can be limited and fixed in the accommodating cavity and will not move due to external impact.

[0052] In some embodiments of the present application, such as Figure 3 , the pressing member 127 includes a pressing body 1271 and an elastic connecting portion 1272.

[0053] The pressing body 1271 is disposed in the area opposite to the switch button 21.

[0054] One end of the elastic connecting portion 1272 is connected to the pressing body 1271, and the other end is connected to the area of the lower housing 12 surrounding the pressing member 127.

[0055] Among them, the elastic connecting portion 1272 is spaced from the pressing body 127 and the area of the lower housing 12 surrounding the pressing member 127 to facilitate the movement of the elastic connecting portion 1272. A first annular groove is provided between the elastic connecting portion 1272 and the pressing body 1271, and a second annular groove is provided between the elastic connecting portion 1272 and the area of the lower housing 12 surrounding the pressing member 127.

[0056] In practical applications, when the user needs to turn on or off the sound and light of the intelligent sound and light label, the user can apply an external force to the pressing body 1271. Due to the elastic action of the elastic connecting portion 1272, the pressing body 1271 faces the switch button 21 in the circuit board 20, pressing the switch button 21 to turn on or off the sound and light of the intelligent sound and light label.

[0057] For the light-emitting device 30:

[0058] The light-emitting device 30 is disposed on one side of the circuit board 20 close to the light guide column 121.

[0059] As some examples, the light-emitting device 30 can be LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes).

[0060] In practical applications, when receiving an opening signal sent by the terminal or when the user manually turns on the switch, the light-emitting device 30 can emit light, thereby indicating the user's location and facilitating the user to quickly find the items in the warehouse. When receiving a closing signal sent by the terminal or when the user manually turns off the switch, the light-emitting device 30 can stop emitting light.

[0061] For the buzzer 40:

[0062] The buzzer 40 is disposed on the circuit board 20.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present application, the buzzer 40 is disposed on one side of the circuit board 20 close to the upper housing 11. For example, Figure 4 an area of the upper housing 11 opposite to the buzzer 40 is provided with a sound outlet hole 112.

[0064] In practical applications, when receiving an opening signal sent by the terminal or when the user manually turns on the switch, the buzzer 40 can emit sound, thereby indicating the user's location and facilitating the user to quickly find the items in the warehouse. When receiving a closing signal sent by the terminal or when the user manually turns off the switch, the buzzer 40 can stop emitting sound.

[0065] For the battery assembly 50:

[0066] The battery assembly 50 is disposed on one side of the circuit board 20 close to the upper housing 11. For example, Figure 4 an area of the upper housing 11 opposite to the battery assembly 50 is provided with a detachable battery replacement board 113.

[0067] In practical applications, when the battery of the battery assembly 50 is exhausted or fails, the user can expose the battery assembly 50 by removing the battery replacement board 113, and then replace the battery assembly 50.

[0068] In the embodiments of the present application, the intelligent acoustic-optical label includes a housing, a circuit board, a light-emitting device, a buzzer, and a battery assembly. The housing includes an upper housing and a lower housing, which are mutually fitted. A receiving cavity is formed between the upper housing and the lower housing. A light guide column is arranged on one side of the lower housing facing the receiving cavity. Diffuse reflection layers are arranged on the upper housing and the lower housing in the area opposite to the light guide column. The circuit board is arranged in the receiving cavity. The light-emitting device is arranged on one side of the circuit board close to the light guide column. The buzzer is arranged on the circuit board. By providing the light guide column and the diffuse reflection layer in the intelligent acoustic-optical label, the lighting effect in the intelligent acoustic-optical label is improved, and the difficulty for personnel to find items in the warehouse through the light indication is reduced. Without increasing the luminous flux of the light-emitting device, the visual brightness is enhanced, and thus the power consumption and cost of the intelligent acoustic-optical label are not affected.
