Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of microphone technology, and particularly to a desktop microphone. Background Technology
[0002] Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional schematic diagram of a desktop sensor 100 based on existing technology. The desktop microphone neck adapter structure employs a manual locking mechanism. During use, the user needs to manually lock it to achieve multi-angle adjustment of the microphone, which reduces the user experience. This desktop sensor suffers from problems such as complex structure, inconvenient assembly, and unstable resistance. Furthermore, it is prone to quality defects during installation, thus affecting the yield rate.
[0003] Figure 2 The diagram shows a three-dimensional representation of a desktop sensor 200 based on existing technology 2. This desktop microphone neck adapter structure employs a different technical solution: after screwing, resistance is provided by squeezing a pad, such as a metal spring, resin, or rubber pad, enabling stepless adjustment of the microphone angle. However, the rotation axis of this desktop sensor, i.e., the mating part of the locking screw and nut, can affect wiring, resulting in a small rotation angle range or visible wiring that affects the overall aesthetics.
[0004] Statistics show that the majority (over 90%) of desktop microphones use either of the two aforementioned structures, both of which suffer from rotational lifespan issues. After 5000 rotations, the resistance decreases by more than 50%, potentially leading to microphone tilting. With societal development and rising living standards, user demands for products are constantly increasing, resulting in the widespread use of desktop microphones. The appearance, adjustment angle, and neck connection stability of desktop microphones directly impact user experience and are crucial indicators of product quality. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0034] The technical solutions of this application will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this application. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0035] It should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, terms such as "installation" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to mechanical connections or electrical connections; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0036] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the desktop microphone according to an embodiment of this application mainly includes: a microphone body 1, an upper adapter 2, a connecting unit, a lower adapter 4, and a base 3. The connecting unit may include a polymer pad 5, a rotating shaft 6, and a screw 8. The upper adapter 2 is fitted into the polymer pad 5; the first end of the rotating shaft 6 is fitted into the polymer pad 5; and the second end of the rotating shaft 6 is connected to the lower adapter 4 via the screw 8. The desktop microphone may also include a cable 9 for connecting the microphone body 1 and passing through a cable channel forming a through-type connection between the upper adapter 2, the connecting unit, the lower adapter 4, and the base 3, to connect to an external device.
[0037] Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram showing the assembly of the polymer pad 5 and the upper adapter 2 in a desktop microphone according to an example embodiment of this application. Figure 7 As shown, the polymer pad 5 can be configured as a disk shape, including a first end face (i.e. Figure 7The hidden end face) and the second end face (i.e. Figure 7 (Exposed end face). The upper adapter 2 has a first mounting groove 21 on its vertical side, which matches the shape of the first end face of the polymer pad 5. The first mounting groove 21 has a positioning protrusion 211; the first end face of the polymer pad 5 has a positioning recess 511; the positioning protrusion 211 and the positioning recess 511 can be coupled, and this coupling design allows the polymer pad 5 to be positioned and engaged with the upper adapter 2, and the polymer pad 5 will not rotate or slip in the first mounting groove 21. The second end face of the polymer pad 5 has a second mounting groove 51, which matches the shape of the first end of the rotating shaft 6.
[0038] It should be noted that the polymer pad 5 can be made of nylon, which has wear-resistant and self-lubricating properties. Positioned between the upper adapter 2 and the lower adapter 4, the polymer pad 5 also prevents paint chipping and rattling caused by friction between the two parts. The desktop microphone of this application, due to the use of the polymer pad design and the application of a fitting process, solves the problem of clearance between rotating parts and fills the gaps in the housing, resulting in better overall product integrity.
[0039] Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 These figures show a perspective view, a front view, and a side view of the rotating shaft in the desktop microphone according to an example embodiment of this application. As shown, the rotating shaft 6 mainly includes a central column 61, a first rotating plate 62, an intermediate pad 63, and a second rotating plate 64. The central column 61 is positioned on the central axis of the rotating shaft 6. The first rotating plate 62 is fitted onto the central column 61, serving as the first end of the rotating shaft 6, and is used for fitting and connecting with the polymer pad 5. The second rotating plate 64 is fitted onto the central column 61, serving as the second end of the rotating shaft 6, and is used for screw connection with the lower adapter 4. The intermediate pad 63 is positioned between the first rotating plate 62 and the second rotating plate 64, serving as a separator. The first rotating plate 62 and the second rotating plate 64 preferably have the same shape, so that there is no need to distinguish between the forward and reverse directions during installation, reducing the difficulty of operation. The first rotating plate 62 and the second rotating plate 64 can be designed as trilobal steel plates, which has the advantages of using less steel but having good support strength. Each leaf-shaped structure of the first rotating plate 62 and the second rotating plate 64 may be provided with a mounting hole for the screw 8 to pass through. Tests show that the shaft with this design has good reliability, long rotational life, for example, at least 20,000 rotational cycles, and low resistance attenuation, for example, torque attenuation within 20% after 2,000 rotations.
[0040] In the desktop microphone of the example embodiment of this application, the assembly process of the rotating shaft 6 and the polymer pad 5 is as follows: Figure 11As shown, the first rotating piece 62 is embedded in the second, three-claw-shaped groove 51 of the polymer pad 5. The second rotating piece 64 remains exposed. Figure 11 The three arrows in the middle indicate the specific locations where the clamping and fitting action is performed during the assembly process of the rotating shaft 6 and the polymer pad 5.
[0041] In the desktop microphone of the exemplary embodiment of this application, the assembly process of the rotating shaft 6 and the lower adapter 4 is as follows: Figure 12 As shown, the second rotating plate 64 is connected to the lower adapter 4 by three screws 8. Figure 12 The three arrows in the middle indicate the specific locations where the screws are tightened during the assembly process of the rotating shaft 6 and the lower adapter 4.
[0042] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the desktop microphone in the example embodiment of this application may also include a decorative cover plate 7. The decorative cover plate 7 is disposed near the connecting unit and is used to cover the various parts of the connecting unit, serving an aesthetic and decorative purpose.
[0043] The desktop microphone of the example embodiment of this application has a microphone rotation angle range of 0° to 55°. When the rotation angle is within this range, the angle is reasonable, which can be applied to conventional user scenarios and the sound pickup effect is good. Figure 13 This is a schematic diagram showing that the microphone rotation angle range of the desktop sensor in the example embodiment of this application is 0°; Figure 14 This is a schematic diagram showing the microphone rotation angle range of a desktop sensor according to an example embodiment of this application, which is 55°. Figure 13 , Figure 14 and Figure 6 It can be seen that the desktop microphone adopts a symmetrical application design with dual rotating axes, which can provide sufficient space for the cable to pass through at both extreme angles of 0° and 55°.
[0044] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand, the assembly process of the neck adapter position of the desktop microphone is described in detail below:
[0045] Step 1: Fit the polymer pad 5 into the upper adapter 2;
[0046] Step 2: Insert the part assembled in Step 1 into the lower adapter 4 from the top;
[0047] Step 3: Insert the two rotating shafts 6 into the polymer pad 5 from both sides and press them tightly;
[0048] Step 4: Use screw 8 to tighten the shaft 6 to the lower adapter 4 from the side;
[0049] Step 5: Install the decorative cover plate 7 (which may have double-sided adhesive) from the side to the lower adapter 4.
[0050] The desktop microphone of this application employs a tight-fitting assembly scheme of a polymer pad made of polymer material and a metal upper adapter, avoiding assembly gaps between parts and filling gaps in the housing for improved overall product integrity. Furthermore, the rotating shaft, providing the rotation function, is hidden between the neck support and the outer shell, allowing for hollow wiring. This conceals wiring in the overall appearance while enabling a wide range of microphone angle adjustments, resulting in a wider pickup area, simpler microphone angle adjustments, and prevention of microphone tilting during use. The desktop microphone of this application offers advantages such as convenient assembly, secure connection, stable rotational resistance, and a simple and elegant appearance.
[0051] The specific embodiments described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this application. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications, combinations, sub-combinations, and substitutions can occur depending on design requirements and other factors. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
