The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, or accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a particular order.

[0022] In this invention, the reference to "embodiment" means that a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this invention. The appearance of this phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a mutually exclusive, independent, or alternative embodiment to other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described in this invention can be combined with other embodiments.

[0023] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] like Figure 1-5As shown, a conference speaker includes a speaker body 1, a first housing 2, and a second housing 3. The speaker body 1 is fixedly connected to the first housing 2, and the second housing 3 is detachably connected to the first housing 2.

[0025] A circuit board 4, a first magnetic component 5, and a first conductive component 6 are fixedly installed inside the first housing 2. The first conductive component 6 extends out of the end face of the first housing 2, and the first conductive component 6 and the speaker body 1 are electrically connected to the circuit board 4. A battery 7 is installed inside the second housing 3. A second magnetic component 8 is provided in the second housing 3 at a position corresponding to the first magnetic component 5. The first magnetic component 5 and the second magnetic component 8 are magnetically connected. Through the cooperation of the first magnetic component 5 and the second magnetic component 8, the first housing 2 and the second housing 3 can be fixedly connected. A second conductive component 9 is provided on the second housing 3 at a position corresponding to the first conductive component 6. The second conductive component 9 is detachably electrically connected to the first conductive component 6. Through the cooperation of the first guide component and the second conductive component 9, the battery 7 can supply power to the circuit board 4, thereby supplying power to the speaker body 1.

[0026] This conference speaker utilizes a battery 7 housed within the second housing 3 to power the main speaker 1 wirelessly, eliminating the need for wired power and enhancing the flexibility of placement. The battery 7 can be freely placed anywhere to meet specific needs. Furthermore, the battery 7 provides power even in the event of a power outage, improving user experience. On the other hand, the magnetic connection between the first housing 2 and the second housing 3 allows for easy separation when storing and carrying the speaker, reducing its overall size and improving practicality. Moreover, once the battery 7 reaches the end of its lifespan, only the second housing 3 needs replacement, without requiring disassembly or complete replacement, reducing maintenance costs and extending the speaker's lifespan.

[0027] The first housing 2 is also provided with a charging connector 10, which is electrically connected to the circuit board 4. The charging connector 10 can be used to power the conference speaker with an external power source, and can also be used to charge the battery 7 with an external power source. By setting the charging connector 10, the conference speaker retains the function of external power supply, improving the versatility of the power supply and meeting the daily needs of users. In this embodiment, the charging connector 10 is a Type-C connector; in other embodiments, the charging connector 10 can also adopt any existing connector structure that can realize charging and power supply functions, such as a USB connector.

[0028] In this embodiment, the first conductive element 6 and the second conductive element 9 are spring pins, i.e., pogopin probes. The elastic structure allows the first conductive element 6 to abut against the second conductive element 9 when the first housing 2 and the second housing 3 are connected and limited, thereby realizing the connection between the battery 7 and the circuit board 4.

[0029] In this embodiment, there are six first magnetic elements 5, which are arranged in a ring within the first housing 2. Second magnetic elements 8 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the first magnetic elements 5, and the corresponding first magnetic elements 5 and second magnetic elements 8 have opposite polarities, allowing them to be magnetically connected. By providing six first magnetic elements 5 and six second magnetic elements 8, the first housing 2 and the second housing 3 can be magnetically connected and fixed at multiple points, improving the stability of the structure. In other embodiments, the number of first magnetic elements 5 can be any other arbitrary number.

[0030] The first housing 2 has a shaped limiting groove 21 on its end face near the second housing 3, and the second housing 3 has a shaped protrusion 31 on its end face near the first housing 2, which matches the shape of the limiting groove 21. The shaped protrusion 31 and the limiting groove 21 can be detachably engaged. Through the cooperation of the shaped protrusion 31 and the limiting groove 21, the first housing 2 and the second housing 3 can be quickly positioned and installed, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the first housing 2 and the second housing 3.

[0031] In this embodiment, the first conductive member 6 is disposed at the corresponding position of the irregularly shaped limiting groove 21, and the first conductive member 6 extends out of the irregularly shaped limiting groove 21; the second conductive member 9 is disposed at the corresponding position of the irregularly shaped protrusion 31, and the second conductive member 9 extends out of the irregularly shaped protrusion 31. During installation, after the irregularly shaped protrusion 31 is aligned and engaged with the irregularly shaped limiting groove 21, the first conductive member 6 is also aligned and engaged with the corresponding second conductive member 9, thereby making the first conductive member 6 and the second conductive member 9 electrically connected.

[0032] An annular positioning strip 22 is provided on the end face of the first housing 2 near the second housing 3, and an annular positioning groove 32 is provided on the end face of the second housing 3 near the first housing 2. The annular positioning strip 22 and the annular positioning groove 32 are detachably snapped together. When assembling the first housing 2 and the second housing 3, after the irregular protrusion 31 is aligned with the irregular limiting groove 21, the annular positioning strip 22 is also aligned with the annular positioning groove 32, and the annular positioning strip 22 will snap into the annular positioning groove 32. Through the cooperation of the annular positioning groove 32 and the annular positioning strip 22, the first housing 2 and the second housing 3 can be installed more stably, improving the stability of the structure.

[0033] To facilitate the placement of the conference speaker, a support foot 11 is provided on the end face of the second housing 3 away from the first housing 2. The support foot 11 allows the conference speaker to be placed stably on the table, improving the ease of use.

[0034] In this embodiment, the support feet 11 are arranged in a ring on the end face of the second housing 3. The ring-shaped support feet 11 allow the conference speaker to bear force at multiple points when placed on the table, ensuring its stability; at the same time, the ring-shaped support feet 11 also enhance the overall aesthetics of the conference speaker.

[0035] In this embodiment, the support foot pad 11 is made of silicone material. Silicone material has a certain degree of elasticity and can absorb vibrations, thereby preventing the conference speaker from shifting during use and improving placement stability. In other embodiments, the support foot pad 11 can also be made of other flexible materials, such as rubber.

[0036] The above-described specific embodiments are preferred embodiments of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the specific scope of this utility model. The scope of this utility model includes but is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. All equivalent changes made in accordance with this utility model are within the protection scope of this utility model.
