Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of microphone testing technology, and in particular to a microphone testing turntable. Background Technology
[0002] A microphone is an energy conversion device that converts sound signals into electrical signals. After the microphone is manufactured, its directional characteristics are tested. This test assesses the microphone's sensitivity to sound from different directions. Traditional microphone directional characteristic testing is usually conducted in a fully or partially anechoic chamber. During the test, the microphone under test is placed on a turntable, and a sound source located directly in front of the microphone generates a sound signal with a specified frequency and sound pressure level. As the turntable angle changes, the signal values output by the microphone at different angular positions are recorded. However, current microphone testing turntables are large and heavy, which not only increases space requirements but also raises transportation and installation costs.
[0003] A search revealed patent number CN221901025U, which discloses a small turntable device supporting microphone directional feature testing. The device includes a test bracket, a servo motor top flange, an encoder, a micro servo motor, and a micro servo motor base. The encoder is mounted on the output end of the micro servo motor, and the servo motor top flange is mounted on top of the micro servo motor and connected to the test bracket. The bottom of the test bracket is bolted to the servo motor top flange. The micro servo motor is mounted on the micro servo motor base. This device is small in size and weight, making it easy to carry and use. It is also inexpensive, interchangeable, and has a wide range of applications. However, the device suffers from tangled wires during use, and the height can only be roughly adjusted using a tripod, resulting in less than ideal adjustment accuracy. Utility Model Content
