Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of audio equipment, and specifically relates to a sound guiding structure of an audio equipment. Background Art

[0002] Headphones and audio equipment are very common in modern life, and their versatility and portability make them an indispensable companion in daily life. The sound conduction structure in audio equipment such as headphones is a key factor in ensuring sound quality and user experience.

[0003] The current sound conduction structure of headphones usually includes a driving unit, and the driving unit is connected with a sound outlet nozzle to realize sound conduction.

[0004] However, the existing sound conduction structure still has the following deficiencies:

[0005] First, in the design of general headphones, usually there is only one driving unit, and the sound outlet nozzle is usually designed as a round tube, which is only used for sound conduction and does not have the effect of optimizing the frequency response. In the design of multi-unit headphones, since the high, middle, and low frequency bands are respectively taken on by different driving units, and the high, middle, and low frequency bands have different physical characteristics. However, in the design of multi-unit headphones, the three groups of sound tubes are usually the same section of flexible tube, and there is no optimized design for the high, middle, and low frequency bands. Especially the flexible tube for high frequency transmission is relatively tortuous and soft, while high frequency sound waves travel in a straight line and the longer the path, the more attenuation, and the weak ability to overcome obstacles, and there will also be attenuation when encountering a bend, thus affecting the sound quality.

[0006] Second, the sound outlet holes of the existing driving unit are generally arranged on the end face, and the axial direction of the sound outlet holes is parallel to the internal vibrating plate, resulting in that the sound needs to "turn many times" to come out from the sound outlet holes, further affecting the high frequency sound waves. Content of the Utility Model

[0007] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a sound guiding structure of an audio equipment to solve the problems raised in the above background art.

[0008] The purpose of the utility model can be realized by the following technical solutions:

[0009] A sound guiding structure of an audio equipment includes a sound outlet nozzle and a driving unit. The sound outlet nozzle is connected with an intermediate frequency duct, a high frequency duct, and a low frequency duct. One driving unit is connected to each of the ends of the intermediate frequency duct, the high frequency duct, and the low frequency duct that are far away from the sound outlet nozzle.

[0010] An intermediate frequency channel, a high frequency channel, and a low frequency channel are opened in the sound outlet nozzle. The tail end of the intermediate frequency channel is connected with the intermediate frequency duct, the tail end of the high frequency channel is connected with the high frequency duct, and the tail end of the low frequency channel is connected with the low frequency duct.

[0011] A conical groove is provided at the front end of the high-frequency channel, and the front end of the high-frequency channel forms a horn-shaped sound outlet through the conical groove;

[0012] The sound outlet hole of the driving unit is arranged on the side of the driving unit facing the vibrating plate.

[0013] Furthermore, the high-frequency duct is made of a high-rigidity metal material.

[0014] Furthermore, the diameter of the high-frequency duct is larger than that of the medium-frequency duct, and the diameter of the medium-frequency duct is larger than that of the low-frequency duct.

[0015] Furthermore, the high-frequency duct has a straight pipe structure.

[0016] Advantages of the present utility model:

[0017] 1. In the present utility model, the horn-shaped structure formed by the conical groove improves the conduction efficiency of high-frequency signals, enabling sound to be transmitted more concentratedly into the external auditory canal, and improving the spatial sense and three-dimensional sense of the audio.

[0018] 2. In the present utility model, by arranging the sound outlet hole of the driving unit on the side of the driving unit facing the vibrating plate, the sound wave generated by the vibrating plate does not need to turn, and directly enters the high-frequency duct from the sound outlet hole, thereby reducing the loss of high-frequency sound waves.

[0019] 3. By changing the medium-frequency duct, high-frequency duct, and low-frequency duct to high-rigidity metals (such as stainless steel), the sound absorption loss during sound conduction can be reduced, and the clarity and fineness of the sound can be maintained.

[0020] 4. By designing ducts with different diameters (the medium-frequency duct, high-frequency duct, and low-frequency duct respectively adopt different sizes), precise transmission and optimization of multi-band signals are achieved, and the overall sound quality performance is improved.

[0021] 5. Through the straight pipe design of the high-frequency duct, the influence of path bending on high-frequency sound waves can be further reduced, thereby further improving the output sound quality.

[0022] 6. For general multi-unit earphones, because the high-frequency attenuation is fast, multiple groups of high-frequency units are required to cooperate, otherwise the designed sound pressure level cannot be achieved, resulting in an increase in cost caused by high frequencies; in the present utility model, the designed sound pressure level is achieved through an optimized single driving unit and high-frequency sound duct design, reducing the manufacturing cost of high-frequency units, and providing a new solution for efficient and high-fidelity sound conduction.
