Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of music boxes, in particular to a sheet metal music box with hidden screw heads. Background Technique

[0002] A music box is a wireless music sharing device that can play music on a mobile phone through a speaker without connecting to a speaker. As a new wireless music product and listening method, the music box uses Wi-Fi as the wireless communication method and can be controlled by a mobile phone, a tablet computer, or a personal PC to realize the transmission of online and local music to the speaker for playing, and is widely used.

[0003] The existing desktop music boxes have the following drawbacks when in use: Generally, the sheet metal shell design of desktop music boxes only focuses on their functions and has no requirements for various aspects of the appearance. Usually, the locking and fixing shell connection screw heads are directly exposed outside very intuitively. Such a device has a simple structure design, is easy to process and install. Although it does not affect the use of the device, for some users who care about the appearance and perception of the device, the existing directly exposed structure design greatly affects the overall texture of the music box. Therefore, we propose a sheet metal music box with hidden screw heads. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a sheet metal music box with hidden screw heads, which adopts an internal connection structure, so that the fasteners cannot be directly observed from the outside, improving the appearance beauty and overall texture, and can effectively solve the problems in the background technique.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows:

[0006] A sheet metal music box with hidden screw heads includes an upper cover plate, and also includes a front panel and a bottom plate. One end of the upper cover plate is clamped with the front panel. A blind hole is opened on the inner wall of the front panel. A screw that is screwed into the blind hole is detachably connected between the front panel and the upper cover plate. The bottom plate is detachably connected to the bottom of the upper cover plate, and a PCB board is installed on the upper surface of the bottom plate.

[0007] Furthermore, installation holes corresponding in position are opened in both the bottom plate and the PCB board; when installing the PCB board, it is first placed on the surface of the bottom plate, and fasteners are screwed through the installation holes to fix the PCB board and the bottom plate together, and then the overall assembly is carried out.

[0008] Furthermore, fastening holes corresponding in position are opened between the inside of the bottom plate and the inside of the upper cover plate; when assembling the bottom plate and the upper cover plate, the upper cover plate and the bottom plate are fixed by screwing fasteners into the fastening holes.

[0009] Furthermore, feet are installed at the four corners of the bottom of the bottom plate; the feet structure plays a supporting role for the whole device.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects: The shell part of the music box is composed of an upper cover plate, a front panel and a bottom plate. The front panel is made of a 5mm-thick aluminum alloy plate by die forming, with arc-shaped profiles made at both ends. Blind holes are designed on the inner side of the front panel and tapped with M3 threads. When assembling with the upper cover plate, the front panel and the upper cover can be locked and fixed with M3 screws from the inner cavity of the upper cover plate. The front panel and the sheet metal-bent upper cover plate form a box with a closed top and four sides, without exposed fasteners. The PCB board is installed in the device from the bottom, and the PCB board is locked on the bottom plate with fasteners. The bottom plate with the installed PCB board is then locked on the box composed of the front panel and the upper cover. The fasteners are screwed in from the bottom up, and during normal use, the user cannot see the fasteners. When the user uses the device, they can feel that the appearance of the device has a certain depth, rather than a low-cost item with simple design, easy processing and easy assembly. The whole device can provide better appearance aesthetics and overall texture. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
