Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of soundbars, and in particular to a soundbar speaker box with improved assembly efficiency. Background Art

[0002] A soundbar, also known as a soundbar or soundbar, is a long, strip-shaped speaker that integrates multiple channels of speakers and amplifiers into a single enclosure. Each channel has its own independent cavity, ensuring excellent separation. Unlike traditional speakers, it can be placed horizontally and is primarily used with flat-screen televisions to create an integrated audiovisual experience. Due to the hot sales of flat-screen televisions, soundbars, with their sleek, simple design and superior performance compared to integrated TV speakers, have become a hot topic in the domestic market.

[0003] In the prior art, the housing of a soundbar speaker is typically a one-piece molded structure with openings on both ends. After components are installed through these openings, side covers are used to close the openings. Then, snap-on brackets are attached to the rear side of the housing to complete the assembly of the soundbar speaker. However, during actual production, the inventors discovered that current soundbar speaker housings have design flaws that require separate screw fastening for both the side covers and the snap-on brackets.

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. Throughout the description of this application, "plurality" means two or more, unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0029] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0030] Please also refer to Figures 1 to 5 The soundbar speaker with improved assembly efficiency provided by the embodiment of the present application is now described. The soundbar speaker with improved assembly efficiency includes: a housing 10, a side cover 20 and a snap-fit ​​bracket 30.

[0031] The housing 10 and the snap-fit ​​bracket 30 are provided with through-holes, and the side cover 20 is provided with a first screw hole 21. When the side cover 20 and the snap-fit ​​bracket 30 are installed in the housing 10, the first screw hole 21, the through-hole of the housing 10, and the through-hole of the snap-fit ​​bracket 30 are coaxially arranged from front to back. During operation, when installing the side cover 20 and the snap-fit ​​bracket 30 in the housing 10, it is necessary to coaxially arrange the first screw hole 21 with the through-hole of the housing 10, and then coaxially arrange the through-hole of the snap-fit ​​bracket 30 with the through-hole of the housing 10. Then, a screw 40 is provided and passed through the through-hole of the snap-fit ​​bracket 30 and the through-hole of the housing 10 in sequence, and then screwed into the first screw hole 21, thereby simultaneously locking the side cover 20 and the snap-fit ​​bracket 30.

[0032] Such a structure, on the one hand, can solve the defect in traditional technology that the side cover 20 and the snap-fit ​​bracket 30 need to be screwed separately, thereby reducing the number of screw tightening operations, thereby shortening assembly time and improving assembly efficiency; on the other hand, it solves the problem that the screws protrude from the surface of the shell 10 after the side cover 20 is screwed and installed, making the surface of the shell 10 smoother and the aesthetics further enhanced.

[0033] In some embodiments of the present application, the shell 10 is provided with an installation chamber 101, and the installation chamber 101 passes through at least the left and right sides of the shell 10 to form a first opening 102; accordingly, there are two side covers 20 and two snap-fit ​​brackets 30; the through-holes of the shell 10 are correspondingly arranged at positions close to the first opening 102 at the left and right ends of the shell 10, and one snap-fit ​​bracket 30 is adapted for use with one side cover 20.

[0034] Preferably, there are two first screw holes 21 spaced apart from each other, and the housing 10 and the snap-fit ​​bracket 30 are each provided with a through-hole equal to the number of the first screw holes 21. The through-holes of the housing 10 include a first through-hole 11 and a second through-hole 12 provided on the rear side of the housing 10. The first through-hole 11 and the second through-hole 12 penetrate the inner and outer surfaces of the housing 10 and are electrically connected to the installation chamber 101. The diameter of the second through-hole 12 is larger than that of the first through-hole 11, and the first screw holes 21 are coaxially arranged one by one with the first through-hole 11 and the second through-hole 12, respectively.

[0035] Next, a first support column 31 and a second support column 32 are provided on the front surface of the snap-fit ​​bracket 30. The length and diameter of the second support column 32 are both larger than the length and diameter of the first support column 31. When the snap-fit ​​bracket 30 is installed on the rear side of the shell 10, the second support column 32 can be inserted into the second through-hole 12.

[0036] By setting the first through-hole 11 and the second through-hole 12 of different diameters, and setting the first support column 31 and the second support column 32 of different diameters and lengths on the buckle bracket 30, the installation direction of the buckle bracket 30 can be identified during installation and buckling, so as to avoid errors in the installation direction of the buckle bracket 30, which may affect subsequent hanging use.

[0037] Specifically, the through hole of the buckle bracket 30 is defined as the third through hole 33, and the third through hole 33 is respectively provided on the first support column 31 and the second support column 32. The third through hole 33 correspondingly passes through the front surface of the first support column 31, the second support column 32 and the rear surface of the buckle bracket 30.

[0038] It can be understood that when the side cover 20 and the snap-fit ​​bracket 30 are installed on the shell 10, the upper first screw hole 21, the first through-hole 11 and the upper third through-hole 33 are coaxially arranged, and the screw can pass through the upper third through-hole 33 and the first through-hole 11 in sequence and be screwed into the upper first screw hole 21; the lower first screw hole 21, the second through-hole 12 and the lower third through-hole 33 are coaxially arranged, and the screw can pass through the lower third through-hole 33 and the second through-hole 12 in sequence and be screwed into the lower first screw hole 21.

[0039] The front end diameter of the two third through-holes 33 is smaller than the rear end diameter, and they are countersunk hole structures; when the screws are screwed together, the heads of the screws can be hidden in the rear end holes of the third through-holes 33. After the subsequent buckle bracket 30 is buckled and installed on the support or base, the screw positions can be well hidden, and users cannot see the screw positions, thereby further improving the overall aesthetics of the soundbar speaker.

[0040] It should be noted that the head of the screw can be provided with a cross slot, a slotted slot or a hexagonal slot structure according to actual needs, so that a corresponding screwdriver or hexagonal wrench can be used to turn the screw for threaded connection.

[0041] Preferably, the buckling bracket 30 is provided with a first buckling window 34 penetrating the front and rear surfaces thereof, and the first buckling window 34 is located between the first support column 31 and the second support column 32 .

[0042] In other embodiments of the present application, the side cover 20 is provided with a first extension plate 22. When the side cover 20 is installed in the first opening 102, the first extension plate 22 is inserted into the installation chamber 101; the first screw hole 21 is provided in the first extension plate 22 and passes backward through the rear surface of the first extension plate 22.

[0043] Specifically, after the side cover 20 is installed in the first opening 102 , the first extension plate 22 is spaced apart from the rear surface of the installation chamber 101 ; or, after the side cover 20 is installed in the first opening 102 , the first extension plate 22 abuts against the rear surface of the installation chamber 101 .

[0044] It can be understood that when the overall thickness of the shell 10 is relatively thin, the first extension plate 22 can be used to abut against the rear surface of the installation cavity, so that after the subsequent snap-on bracket 30 is installed on the rear surface of the shell 10, the snap-on bracket 30 can clamp a part of the shell 10 together with the first extension plate 22 to prevent the shell 10 from being deformed due to weight when the soundbar speaker is subsequently hung, thereby improving the reliability and service life of use.

[0045] Preferably, a support edge 23 and / or a support frame 24 are provided on the side of the side cover 20 facing the first opening 102. When the side cover 20 is installed in the first opening 102, the support edge 23 or the support frame 24 can abut against the surface of the installation chamber 101. The provision of the support piece and the support frame can improve the installation stability of the side cover 20, and the side cover 20 is not easy to fall off from the first opening 102 after assembly.

[0046] The above is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and only specifically describes the technical principles of the present invention. These descriptions are intended only to explain the principles of the present invention and should not be construed in any way as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. Based on the explanations herein, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention, as well as other specific embodiments of the present invention that can be imagined by those skilled in the art without inventive effort, shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
