In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 8As shown, this is a preferred embodiment of an audio / video player of the present invention, including a housing 1 and a video module 2 and an audio component 3 assembled on the housing 1. The housing 1 includes a base 11, a top cover 12, a front cover 13, and a rear cover 14. The front cover 13 and the rear cover 14 are both mounted on the base 11 and surround each other to form a receiving cavity a. The top cover 12 covers the receiving cavity a. The front cover 13 is a curved lens, and the video module 2 is disposed inside the front cover 13. An imaging cavity b is formed between the front cover 13 and the video module 2. The audio component 3 is disposed inside the rear cover 14.

[0032] Specifically, both the video module 2 and the audio component 3 are housed within the accommodating cavity a, and are used for playing video and audio, respectively. In this embodiment, the front cover 13 is a cylindrical curved lens made of highly transparent PC material, with a light transmittance of 95%. The light beam emitted by the video module 2 converges within the imaging cavity b formed between the front cover 13 and the video module 2 to form an image. During use, the viewer's line of sight passes through the front cover 13, and through surface mirroring and reflection, they see freely floating images and graphics within the imaging cavity b.

[0033] The key feature of this invention is that it focuses the light beam emitted by the video module 2 into the imaging cavity b. The image output from the video module 2 is then reflected and mirrored through the front cover 13, which is configured as a curved lens, forming a stereoscopic image with realistic spatial dimensions. This allows viewers to see an image with a sense of space and depth, improving the visual effect. Viewers can directly view the stereoscopic image through the front cover 13 without wearing special glasses, making it convenient to use. Simultaneously, the audio component 3 plays audio in conjunction with the image, resulting in excellent playback quality.

[0034] In this embodiment, the base 11 is provided with a lower reflector 111 at the corresponding video module 2, the upper cover 12 is provided with an upper light shield 121 corresponding to the lower reflector 111, and the front cover 13 abuts against the upper light shield 121 and the lower reflector 111 at the two ends near the upper cover 12 and the base 11, respectively.

[0035] Specifically, the left and right edges of the front cover 13 extend to the left and right ends of the prism 21, respectively. The front cover 13 and the rear cover 14 are interlocked. The upper light shield 121 and the lower reflector 111 are both black. The imaging cavity b is sealed around to prevent external light from directly entering the imaging cavity b. The video module 2, together with the transparent front cover 13, the upper light shield 121 and the lower reflector 111, further improves the imaging effect.

[0036] In this embodiment, the video module 2 includes a prism 21, a display panel 22, and a circuit board 23. The prism 21 is mounted on the base 11, the front cover 13 covers the front of the prism 21, the display panel 22 is mounted on the side of the prism 21 away from the front cover 13, and the circuit board 23 is electrically connected to the display panel 22.

[0037] Specifically, the length of prism 21 is greater than that of display panel 22. After prism 21 is installed on base 11, display panel 22 and circuit board 23 are sequentially installed on prism 21 using electrical tape. The image formed by display panel 22 passes through prism 21, forming different refractive indices and producing images at different angles to create a 3D effect.

[0038] The base 11 is provided with a slot 112, and the upper cover 12 is provided with a socket 122. The upper and lower ends of the prism 21 are respectively inserted into the socket 122 and the slot 112, thereby fixing the video module 2 in the accommodating cavity a.

[0039] In this embodiment, the slot 112 is located in the middle of the base 11, and the socket 122 is correspondingly located on the upper cover 12. The prism 21 is vertically mounted inside the housing 1. In other embodiments, the relative positions of the slot 112 or the socket 122 can be changed according to product design requirements, thereby changing the size of the imaging cavity b or adjusting the mounting angle of the prism 21.

[0040] In this embodiment, the base 11 is provided with an annular first limiting groove 113, and the front cover 13 and the rear cover 14 are both arc-shaped plate structures, with the bottom of the front cover 13 and the rear cover 14 both installed in the first limiting groove 113.

[0041] Specifically, in this embodiment, the base 11 has a circular end face, and the upper cover 12 is a circular cover. When the arc-shaped front cover 13 and rear cover 14 are installed in the first limiting groove 113, the upper cover 12 simultaneously snaps onto the top of the front cover 13 and the rear cover 14, forming a closed accommodating cavity a. The shell 1 is cylindrical in shape as a whole, with a harmonious and unified appearance.

[0042] The bottom of the aforementioned top cover 12 is also provided with a second limiting groove 123, and the top of the rear cover 14 is installed in the second limiting groove 123, making the structure more stable.

[0043] In this embodiment, a screw rod 16 is also included. The base 11 and the top cover 12 are respectively provided with a first screw hole 114 and a second screw hole 124 for installing the screw rod 16. The top cover 12 is connected to the base 11 through the screw rod 16, which avoids connecting the base 11 and the top cover 12 to form the shell 1 only through the front cover 13 and the rear cover 14, and further improves the structural stability.

[0044] In this embodiment, the housing 1 also includes a lower cover 15 with a battery compartment 151. The lower cover 15 is installed on the bottom of the base 11, and the battery compartment 151 is electrically connected to the video module 2 and the audio component 3.

[0045] The bottom of the aforementioned lower cover 15 is also provided with a silicone pad 17, which serves to improve the stability of the player when it is placed, prevent wear on the bottom of the housing 1, and reduce the noise generated between the housing 1 and the table surface caused by the vibration of the audio components 3 during playback.

[0046] In this embodiment, the silicone pad 17 consists of four symmetrically arranged silicone protrusions on the bottom of the lower cover 15. In other embodiments, the silicone pad 17 may also be a circular silicone foot pad covering the bottom of the lower cover 15, or an annular silicone foot pad surrounding the bottom of the lower cover 15, increasing the buffering area of ​​the silicone pad 17 while maintaining a uniform appearance with the cylindrical shell 1. The number and shape of the silicone pads can be adjusted according to the design needs of different products, and are not specifically limited here.

[0047] The aforementioned housing 1 also includes a charging plate 4. An interface 115 is provided on the side wall of the base 11. The charging plate 4 is installed at the interface 115 and electrically connected to the battery compartment 151. The battery inside the battery compartment 151 is charged through the charging plate 4.

[0048] In this embodiment, the audio component 3 includes a speaker cavity 31 and a full-range speaker 32. The surface of the speaker cavity 31 is provided with a playback hole 311. The full-range speaker 32 is installed in the speaker cavity 31, and the sound-emitting end of the full-range speaker 32 is embedded in the playback hole 311. The rear cover 14 is provided with a sound hole 141, and the playback hole 311 is arranged in the direction of the sound hole 141.

[0049] After the full-range speaker 32 is embedded in the playback hole 311, a sealed cavity is formed inside the speaker cavity 31. The full-range speaker 32, together with the sealed cavity, forms a resonant audio, which has a better power amplifier effect.

[0050] Specifically, the number of full-range speakers 32 installed in the speaker cavity 31 can be one or more, and the number of playback holes 311 is the same as the number of full-range speakers 32. The full-range speakers 32 are installed in the corresponding playback holes 311. By adjusting the specifications and dimensions of the speaker cavity and the full-range speakers, a variety of audio amplifier effects can be achieved.

[0051] In this embodiment, two full-range speakers 32 are used to output audio. A set of sound holes 141 is provided in the middle of the rear cover 14, with the center of the sound holes 141 located between the two full-range speakers 32. In other embodiments, multiple sets of sound holes 141 can be arranged according to the positions of the multiple full-range speakers 32 to improve audio propagation efficiency, which is not limited here.

[0052] In this embodiment, the speaker cavity 31 is installed inside the rear cover 14 by screws, and the full-range speaker 32 abuts against the sound hole 141, reducing volume and sound quality loss during playback. In other embodiments, the audio component 3 can also be installed on the rear cover 14 or the base 11 by plugging, snapping, or other means, which is not limited here.

[0053] In this embodiment, a plurality of button slots 125 are provided in the middle of the upper cover 12, and a plurality of buttons 126 are installed on the inner side of the upper cover 12 and are movably engaged in the corresponding button slots 125. The buttons 126 are used to control the video module 2 and the audio component 3, and can change the digital content and adjust the playback status of the player at any time.

[0054] This specification uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this utility model. The descriptions of the above embodiments are only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas of this utility model. In summary, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
