[0041] like Figure 1-4 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a combined housing, including a first housing 1 and a second housing 2. A first fastening seat 10 is provided on one end face of the first housing 1. A plurality of first buckles 101 and a plurality of first slots 102 are provided on the first fastening seat 10 in a staggered arrangement. The first buckles 101 and the first slots 102 are arc-shaped. A second fastening seat 20 is provided on one end face of the second housing 2. A plurality of second buckles 201 are provided on the second fastening seat 20 in a staggered arrangement. The two-button mounting base 20 has several second locking slots 202 arranged in a staggered manner. The second buckles 201 and the second locking slots 202 are arc-shaped. The first mounting base 10 connects to the second mounting base 20, the first buckle 101 engages with the second locking slot 202, and the second buckle 201 engages with the first locking slot 102. By rotating the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 relative to each other, the first buckle 101 and the second buckle 201 are locked in the second locking slot 202, so that the first housing 1 is tightly connected to the second housing 2 to form a whole housing. This combined housing, by designing the product housing in segments, can effectively reduce the product's mold cost, packaging cost, and transportation cost, thereby reducing the product's production cost and improving the product's market competitiveness.

[0042] Specifically, in this embodiment, the housing is a segmented design, including a symmetrically designed first housing 1 and second housing 2. Both can be rectangular or cylindrical elongated structures, which is particularly suitable for the application of Sound Blaster products. The first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are both made of the same material, such as plastic. A first fastening seat 10 and a second fastening seat 20 are respectively provided at the left end of the first housing 1 and the right end of the second housing 2. The first fastening seat 10 and the second fastening seat 20 are interlocking structures. The first fastening seat 10 engages with the second fastening seat 20, and then the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are rotated relative to each other, so that the first fastening seat 10 and the second fastening seat 20 are tightly joined. This allows the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 to appear as a single, integrated housing, which helps reduce the development cost of production molds and thus effectively reduces the production cost of Sound Blaster products. It should be noted that in some embodiments, the housing can also be designed with more than two segments, such as three or four segments, in which case fastening seats are provided at both ends of the middle segment.

[0043] Specifically, in this embodiment, both the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are rectangular strip structures. Two pairs of first buckles 101 and first slots 102 are radially staggered along the end face of the first housing 1 on the first fastening base 10.

The two pairs of first buckles 101 are arranged along the first diagonal of the end face of the first housing 1, and the two pairs of first slots 102 are arranged along the second diagonal of the end face of the first housing 1. In particular, in this embodiment, the radial width of one pair of first buckles 101 is smaller than the radial width of the other pair of first buckles 101, meaning one pair of first buckles 101 is located outside the other pair of first buckles 101. Similarly, the radial width of one pair of first slots 102 is smaller than the width of the other pair of first slots 102, meaning one pair of first slots 102 is located outside the other pair of first slots 102, thus achieving a staggered arrangement. Similarly, two pairs of second latches 201 and second slots 202 are radially staggered along the end face of the second housing 2 on the second fastening base 20. Both the second latches 201 and the second slots 202 have an arc-shaped structure. The two pairs of second latches 201 are arranged along the second diagonal of the end face of the second housing 2, and the two pairs of second slots 202 are arranged along the first diagonal of the end face of the second housing 2. The radial width of one pair of second latches 201 is smaller than the radial width of the other pair of second latches 201, meaning one pair of second latches 201 is located outside the other pair of second latches 201. Similarly, the radial width of one pair of second slots 202 is smaller than the width of the other pair of second slots 202, meaning one pair of second slots 202 is located outside the other pair of second slots 202, thus achieving the effect of staggered arrangement. When the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are joined, the first buckle 101 is fastened to the second slot 202, and the second buckle 201 is fastened to the first slot 102. This staggered arrangement of the buckles and slots ensures a better fit between the first housing 1 and the second housing 2, improving the product's appearance. Furthermore, the use of the same fastening method for both the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 enhances the versatility of parts assembly and effectively reduces maintenance costs.

[0044] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the first buckle 101 has a first undercut portion 1010, the first slot 102 has a first locking groove 1020, and the second buckle 201 has a second undercut portion 2010, the second slot 202 has a second locking groove 2020. The first undercut portion 1010 engages with the second locking groove 2020, and the second undercut portion 2010 engages with the first locking groove 1020 to lock the first housing 1 and the second housing 2. Specifically, to facilitate the first buckle 101 and the second buckle 201 to respectively engage and assemble the second slot 202 and the first slot 102, the upper end of the first buckle 101 is formed as a first inverted portion 1010, which protrudes outward from the upper end of the first buckle 101; the upper end of the second buckle 201 is formed as a second inverted portion 2010, which protrudes outward from the upper end of the second buckle 201; and one side of the first slot 102 is formed as a first latch. The groove 1020 has a width smaller than the width of the first latching groove 102. One side of the second latching groove 202 is formed as a second latching groove 2020, and the width of the second latching groove 2020 is smaller than the width of the second latching groove 202. The width of the first buckle portion 1010 is greater than the width of the second latching groove 2020 but less than the width of the second latching groove 202, and the width of the second buckle portion 2010 is greater than the width of the first latching groove 1020 but less than the width of the first latching groove 102. When the first latch 101 engages with the second latching groove 202, and the second latch 201 engages with the first latching groove 102, the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are rotated relative to each other. The first buckle portion 1010 then enters and engages with the second latching groove 2020, and the second buckle portion 2010 then enters and engages with the first latching groove 1020. Preferably, the relative rotation angle between the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 can be 10-30 degrees, which facilitates user operation and rotation assembly. In this embodiment, it is preferably 16 degrees, which can reduce the rotation stroke and ensure the most stable snap-fit ​​structure.

[0045] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the first fastening seat 10 is symmetrically provided with a first positioning groove 103 and a first positioning protrusion 104; the second fastening seat 20 is symmetrically provided with a second positioning groove 203 and a second positioning protrusion 204; the first positioning protrusion 104 is inserted into the second positioning groove 203 for installation, and the second positioning protrusion 204 is inserted into the first positioning groove 103 for installation. Specifically, in order to stabilize the docking of the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 and facilitate the engagement of the first housing 1 and the second housing 2, a pair of first positioning grooves 103 and a pair of first positioning protrusions 104 are symmetrically arranged on the first fastening seat 10, and a pair of second positioning grooves 203 and a pair of second positioning protrusions 204 are symmetrically arranged on the second fastening seat 20. When the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are rotated relative to each other, the first positioning protrusions 104 engage with the second positioning grooves 203, and the second positioning protrusions 204 engage with the first positioning grooves 103. At this time, the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are rotated into position, and under the action of the first positioning protrusions 104 and the second positioning protrusions 204, the stability of the engagement between the housings can be effectively improved, and the first housing 1 and the second housing 2 are not easily separated during normal use.

[0046] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the first fastening seat 10 is provided with a first spring arm 105, which has an arc-shaped structure, and a first positioning protrusion 104 is provided at the end of the first spring arm 105; the second fastening seat 20 is provided with a second spring arm 205, which also has an arc-shaped structure, and a second positioning protrusion 204 is provided at the end of the second spring arm 205.
