The turntable assembly includes: an inner disc arranged coaxially and a light-transmitting outer disc, the outer disc being configured to support and drive the record to rotate, and a light strip being arranged on the inner disc.
[0006] The present invention provides a turntable assembly, which includes an inner disc and a light-transmitting outer disc. An LED strip is provided on the inner disc. After the turntable is turned on, the LED strip emits light, which passes through the light-transmitting outer disc to illuminate the surrounding area, making it easier for the user to place records. It also improves the aesthetics of the turntable and enhances the user experience.
[0007] Furthermore, the inner disc includes a light-shielding body, a mounting ring disposed on the side of the light-shielding body opposite to the light-transmitting outer disc, and a light-transmitting ring disposed circumferentially outward from the mounting ring; the light strip is mounted on the mounting ring and located between the mounting ring and the light-transmitting ring.
[0008] Furthermore, a light-shielding layer is provided on the side of the light-shielding body facing the light-transmitting outer disk.
[0009] Furthermore, the light-shielding layer is a light-shielding paint layer.
[0010] Furthermore, several weight-reducing grooves are spaced apart and evenly distributed on the mounting ring.
[0011] Furthermore, a frosted layer is formed on the light-transmitting outer disk.
[0012] To improve or solve the technical problem of existing record players requiring external lighting, resulting in poor aesthetics and practicality, this utility model provides a turntable. The turntable includes a main body and a platter assembly as described above, the platter assembly being mounted on the main body. Through this design, the turntable, using the platter assembly, provides ambient lighting, facilitating record placement and enhancing the overall aesthetics and user experience of the turntable.
[0013] In summary, compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] The turntable assembly includes an inner disc and a translucent outer disc. An LED strip is installed on the inner disc. When the turntable is turned on, the LED strip emits light, which passes through the translucent outer disc to illuminate the surrounding area, making it easier for the user to place records and improving the aesthetics of the turntable during use, thus enhancing the user experience.

[0023] To improve or solve the technical problem that existing record modules require external lighting, resulting in poor aesthetics and practicality, this utility model provides a turntable assembly. The turntable assembly includes: an inner disc 21 arranged coaxially and a light-transmitting outer disc 22. The light-transmitting outer disc 22 is configured to support and drive the record to rotate, and a light strip 3 is arranged on the inner disc 21.
[0024] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of a vinyl record player according to the present invention. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of the turntable assembly in a vinyl record player according to the present invention. Figure 3 This is another schematic diagram of an embodiment of the turntable assembly in a vinyl record player according to this utility model. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in one or more embodiments, a turntable assembly of the present invention includes an inner disc 21 and a light-transmitting outer disc 22.
[0025] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3In one or more embodiments, the inner disc 21 is fixed to the base 11 of the turntable, and the light-transmitting outer disc 22 is arranged above the inner disc 21 and coaxially with it. Specifically, the light-transmitting outer disc 22 includes a disc body 221 and a protective ring 222 arranged on the outer periphery of the disc body 221, extending towards the base 11. Further, a frosted layer is formed on the light-transmitting outer disc 22. Specifically, the frosted layer is arranged on the side of the light-transmitting outer disc 22 facing away from the base 11. Further, two grooves are provided on the disc body 221, arranged opposite to each other, to facilitate the user's handling of the light-transmitting outer disc 22. Further, a drive ring 223 is provided on the side of the disc body 221 facing the base 11. The drive ring 223 is connected to the turntable's shaft via a belt, and the shaft drives the light-transmitting outer disc 22 to rotate via the belt, thereby rotating the record on the light-transmitting outer disc 22. Furthermore, the outer light-transmitting plate 22 is made of transparent plastic.
[0026] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one or more embodiments, the inner disk 21 includes a light-shielding body 211, a mounting ring 212 disposed on the light-shielding body 211, and a light-transmitting ring 213. The light-shielding body 211 is generally disc-shaped, and the mounting ring 212 and the light-transmitting ring 213 are disposed on the side of the light-shielding body 211 facing the base 11, and are radially spaced apart along the light-shielding body 211. Further, the inner disk 21 is made of transparent material, and a light-shielding layer is provided on the side of the light-shielding body 211 facing the light-transmitting outer disk 22 to block the light from the light strip 3. For example, the light-shielding layer can be a light-shielding paint layer, i.e., a paint layer sprayed onto the light-shielding body 211. Alternatively, the light-shielding layer can be a light-shielding plate, light-shielding paper, or the light-shielding body 211 itself can be supported by an opaque material, with the light-shielding plate or light-shielding paper adhered to the light-shielding body 211. Furthermore, a light-transmitting ring 213 is arranged on the outer periphery of the light-shielding body 211, and the mounting ring 212 is arranged at intervals with the light-transmitting ring 213. Furthermore, a number of weight-reducing grooves 214 are evenly and at intervals on the mounting ring 212, which can reduce the weight of the inner plate 21.
[0027] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one or more embodiments, a light strip 3 is arranged on the inner disc 21. Specifically, the light strip 3 is mounted on the mounting ring 212 and located between the mounting ring 212 and the light-transmitting ring 213. The light from the light strip 3 diffuses through the light-transmitting ring 213 and the light-transmitting outer disc 22, enhancing the practicality and aesthetics of the record player. It is understood that the light strip 3 can be any existing suitable light strip 3. For example, the light strip 3 is a dimmable light strip 3, which allows adjustment of cool and warm light modes, as well as constant light and breathing light modes, via control buttons on the base 11.
[0028] To improve or solve the technical problem that existing record modules require external lighting, resulting in poor aesthetics and practicality, this utility model also provides a turntable. The turntable includes a main body 1 and the aforementioned record assembly.
[0029] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one or more embodiments, the main body 1 includes a base 11, a dust cover 12, a cartridge 13, a tonearm 14, a drive structure 15, etc. The base 11 is used to mount the above structures, and the dust cover 12 is hinged to the base 11 to protect the structures. The cartridge 13, tonearm 14, and drive structure 15 are mounted on the base 11; their internal structures and mounting methods can be existing suitable structures, which will not be described in detail here. For example, the drive structure 15 includes a motor, a belt, and a shaft, with the motor driving the shaft to rotate.
[0030] The technical solution of this utility model has been described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that the protection scope of this utility model is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principle of this utility model, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after such changes or substitutions will all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
