Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of audio equipment, and in particular to an indicator light structure and a microphone. Background Technology

[0002] Microphones typically have indicator lights to help users indicate the volume level and make it easier for them to adjust the volume. Existing indicator light structures generally include LED beads and light guides. The LED beads are usually located directly behind the light guide. Since the light guide is usually a transparent structure, users can vaguely see the LED beads from outside the microphone, resulting in strong light particles from the LED beads and poor lighting effects. Utility Model Content

[0003] The problem addressed in this application is how to provide an indicator light structure and a microphone to improve the lighting effect of the indicator light.

[0004] This application provides an indicator light structure for a microphone, comprising:

[0005] A light-transmitting light guide includes an insertion portion that is exposed above the microphone housing;

[0006] At least one LED is located inside the microphone housing and positioned to the side and rear of the insertion part. The light emitted by each LED passes through the insertion part to form a lighting effect.

[0007] In one embodiment, the light guide further includes a mounting portion located inside the housing and assembled with the housing. The insertion portion includes a first end and a second end. The first end is connected to the mounting portion, and the second end extends toward the housing until it penetrates the housing.

[0008] In one embodiment, the end faces of both the first end and the second end are elongated strips, and the insertion portion gradually narrows from the first end to the second end until it forms a columnar structure. The transverse cross-section of the insertion portion is a trapezoidal surface.

[0009] In one embodiment, the LED beads are configured as a plurality of LED beads, and each LED bead is arranged along the length direction of the first end and disposed on the side and rear of the first end.

[0010] In one embodiment, the mounting part includes a base, the base being fitted to the inner wall of the housing in a sheet-like structure, the base having a plurality of holes, and a connecting shaft being provided on the side of the housing facing the base, with each connecting shaft being inserted into each of the holes to fix the base.

[0011] In one embodiment, the mounting portion further includes a light guide segment disposed on the side of the base away from the insertion portion. The light guide segment forms an elongated block structure above each of the lamp beads, and the side of the light guide segment facing each of the lamp beads is recessed in the opposite direction to form an arc-shaped light guide groove, so as to concentrate the emitted light of each of the lamp beads through the insertion portion.

[0012] In one embodiment, the system further includes a circuit board housed within the housing and angled to the axial direction of the housing. A slot is provided on the edge of the circuit board, and a connecting segment extends from the base through the slot. The connecting segment also has holes for connecting to the housing. Each of the LED beads is adapted to be disposed on the circuit board.

[0013] In one embodiment, the light guide segment, the base, and the connecting segment are integrally formed to form the mounting portion, and the mounting portion and the insertion portion are integrally formed to form the light guide element.

[0014] In one embodiment, the mounting portion and the insertion portion are made of transparent or translucent material.

[0015] Based on the above description, in this application, each of the lamp beads is arranged on the side and rear of the insertion part, that is, the light emitted by each of the lamp beads passes through the insertion part at an oblique angle to form a lighting effect. At this time, since the lamp beads and the insertion part are not directly opposite each other, the lamp beads cannot be directly seen from the outside of the housing. After the light emitted by the lamp beads illuminates the insertion part, the light is dispersed by the refraction of the insertion part, thereby making the light more uniform and further improving the lighting effect.

[0016] This application also provides a microphone, including the indicator light structure, housing, microphone head, support, and control component disposed within the housing as described above. The microphone head is disposed on the housing, and the microphone head and the control component are electrically connected. The microphone head is also covered with a pop filter. The support is connected to the housing and is used to support the housing.

[0017] Since the microphone includes an indicator light structure, the microphone has at least the beneficial effects of the indicator light structure, which will not be elaborated further here. Attached Figure Description

[0027] In the description of this specification, references to terms such as "embodiment," "one embodiment," and "one implementation" indicate that a specific feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment or implementation is included in at least one embodiment or illustrative implementation of this application. In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or implementation. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or implementations.

[0028] The present application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] To solve the above technical problems, combined with Figures 2-5 As shown, this application provides an indicator light structure for a microphone, including:

[0030] The light guide 6 is transparent and includes an insertion part 62, which is exposed outside the housing 1 of the microphone.

[0031] At least one LED bead 8 is located inside the microphone housing 1 and is positioned to the side and rear of the insertion part 62. The light emitted by each LED bead 8 passes through the insertion part 62 to form a lighting effect.

[0032] It should be noted that the insertion part 62 is exposed outside the housing 1, that is, the insertion part 62 partially passes through the housing 1, or the housing 1 has an opening to expose the insertion part 62. Each of the lamp beads 8 is placed to the side and rear of the insertion part 62, that is, the light emitted by each of the lamp beads 8 passes through the insertion part 62 at an angle to form a lighting effect. At this time, since the lamp beads 8 and the insertion part 62 are not directly opposite each other, the lamp beads 8 cannot be directly seen from outside the housing 1. After the light emitted by the lamp beads 8 illuminates the insertion part 62, the light is dispersed by the refraction of the insertion part 62, thereby making the light more uniform and further improving the lighting effect.

[0033] In one embodiment of this application, combined with Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the light guide 6 also includes a mounting part 61, which is located inside the housing 1 and is assembled with the housing 1. The insertion part 62 includes a first end 621 and a second end 622. The first end 621 is connected to the mounting part 61, and the second end 622 extends toward the housing 1 until it penetrates the housing 1.

[0034] It should be noted that, preferably, the light guide 6 further includes a mounting part 61, which is located inside the housing 1 for assembly with the housing 1. The first end 621 of the insertion part 62 is connected to the mounting part 61, and the second end 622 penetrates the housing 1. Thus, the mounting part 61 makes the assembly of the insertion part 62 with the housing 1 more secure and stable.

[0035] In one embodiment of this application, combined with Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the end faces of the first end 621 and the second end 622 are both elongated strips. The insertion part 62 extends gradually from the first end 621 to the second end 622 until it forms a columnar structure. The transverse cross section of the insertion part 62 is a trapezoidal surface.

[0036] It should be noted that the end faces of the first end 621 and the second end 622 of the insertion part 62 are both set as elongated strips, that is, they extend laterally by a certain length, so as to facilitate the distribution of multiple LED beads 8. The insertion part 62 gradually narrows from the first end 621 to the second end 622. At the same time, the opening on the housing 1 is also larger inside and smaller outside, so that the insertion part 62 is inserted into the housing 1 in abutting position, thereby limiting the length of the insertion part 62 through the housing 1. Preferably, the two sides of the insertion part 62 are set as arc-shaped surfaces, which can fit the housing 1 better to prevent light leakage from both sides and make the overall appearance more beautiful.

[0037] In one embodiment of this application, combined with Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, there are multiple LED beads 8, and each LED bead 8 is arranged along the length direction of the first end 621 and positioned to the side and rear of the first end 621.

[0038] It should be noted that multiple LED beads 8 are provided, and the LED beads 8 are arranged along the extension direction of the end face. Preferably, the multiple LED beads 8 are evenly arranged so that the emitted light passes evenly through the insertion part 62. The more LED beads 8 there are, the smaller the light emission interval, which makes the light distribution more uniform, further reducing the graininess of the light emitted by the LED beads 8 and improving the lighting effect. In addition, the arrangement of multiple LED beads 8 can form a variety of lighting effects, such as a running light, which enriches the lighting effect of the indicator light.

[0039] In one embodiment of this application, combined with Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the mounting part 61 includes a base 611. The base 611 is fitted to the inner wall of the housing 1 and is configured as a sheet structure. The base 611 is provided with a plurality of holes 614. A connecting shaft is provided on the side of the housing 1 facing the base 611. Each connecting shaft is inserted into each of the holes 614 to fix the base 611.

[0040] It should be noted that, preferably, the base 611 is adapted to the curvature of the housing 1, so that the base 611 is a sheet-like structure that fits the inner sidewall of the housing 1. The base 611 is provided with a plurality of holes 614. Optionally, one hole 614 is provided at the upper left corner and one at the upper right corner of the base 611. A connecting shaft is integrally provided on the side of the housing 1 facing the base 611. Thus, during assembly, the holes 614 of the base 611 are pressed against the connecting shaft to perform snap-fit ​​assembly, which is convenient and quick. Furthermore, the design of the base 611 makes the assembly of the light guide 6 more stable.

[0041] In one embodiment of this application, combined with Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the mounting part 61 further includes a light guide section 612. The light guide section 612 is disposed on the side of the base 611 away from the insertion part 62. The light guide section 612 forms an elongated block structure above each of the lamp beads 8. The side of the light guide section 612 facing each of the lamp beads 8 is recessed to form an arc-shaped light guide groove 6121, so as to concentrate the emitted light of each of the lamp beads 8 through the insertion part 62.

[0042] It should be noted that, preferably, the mounting part 61 further includes a light guide section 612. The light guide section 612 has an arc-shaped light guide groove 6121 on the side facing each of the lamp beads 8. As a result, the emitted light of each of the lamp beads 8 will be refracted more by the arc-shaped light guide groove 6121, so that it is more focused and forms a bright light effect through the insertion part 62. Therefore, even if each of the lamp beads 8 is located on the side and rear of the light guide 6, the light emission effect will not be affected.

[0043] In one embodiment of this application, combined with Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, it also includes a circuit board 7, which is housed within the housing 1 and is set at an angle to the axial direction of the housing 1. A slot 71 is provided on the edge of the circuit board 7, and a connecting section 613 extends from the base 611. The connecting section 613 passes through the slot 71 and is also provided with the hole 614 to connect with the housing 1. Each of the lamp beads 8 is adapted to be disposed on the circuit board 7.

[0044] It should be noted that the circuit board 7 is set at a right angle to the axial direction of the housing 1, that is, the circuit board 7 is set horizontally, which facilitates the assembly of each of the lamp beads 8. Preferably, a connecting section 613 extends downward on the base 611, and a slot 71 is provided at the edge of the circuit board 7. The connecting section 613 passes through the slot 71 and can abut against the circuit board 7 to stabilize the relative position of the circuit board 7 and the light guide 6. The connecting section 613 is also provided with the hole 614 to connect to the housing 1 through the connecting shaft, thereby making the setting of the light guide 6 more stable.

[0045] In one embodiment of this application, combined with Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the light guide segment 612, the base 611 and the connecting segment 613 are integrally formed to form the mounting part 61, and the mounting part 61 and the insertion part 62 are integrally formed to form the light guide 6.

[0046] It should be noted that, preferably, the light guide segment 612, the base 611 and the connecting segment 613 are integrally formed, and the mounting part 61 and the insert are integrally formed to form the light guide 6. Thus, when the light guide 6 is made of transparent plastic, the integral form facilitates integral die casting and assembly.

[0047] In one embodiment of this application, combined with Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the mounting part 61 and the insertion part 62 are made of transparent or semi-transparent material.

[0048] It should be noted that, preferably, the mounting part 61 and the insertion part 62 are made of transparent materials, such as transparent glass or transparent plastic, which makes the light brighter. Optionally, the mounting part 61 and the insertion part 62 can also be made of translucent materials, such as patterned glass or translucent plastic. Translucent materials can block refracted light, making the light from the LED beads 8 more integrated, thereby further reducing the grainy appearance.

[0049] This application also provides a microphone, combined with Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, it includes the indicator light structure, housing 1, microphone 4, support 3, and control component 5 disposed in the housing 1 as described above. The microphone 4 is disposed on the housing 1 and the microphone 4 and the control component 5 are electrically connected. The microphone 4 is also covered with anti-spray cotton 2. The support 3 is connected to the housing 1 and is used to support the housing 1.

[0050] It should be noted that the control component 5 is set as a PCBA board, and the microphone 4 is electrically connected to the PCBA board, so that the PCBA board can control the microphone 4 to collect sound and convert it into an electrical signal. The microphone 4 is also provided with a pop filter 2, which can prevent popping and reduce noise in the recording. The microphone is also provided with a support 3 to support the housing 1, so that the microphone can be placed on a flat surface such as a desktop.

[0051] It should be noted that the above-mentioned technical features can be combined with each other to form various embodiments not listed above, all of which are considered to be within the scope of this application specification; and, for those skilled in the art, improvements or modifications can be made based on the above description, and all such improvements and modifications should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims.
