Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments.

[0032] The following disclosure provides many different embodiments or examples for implementing different structures of this application. To simplify the disclosure of this application, the components and arrangements of specific examples are described below.

[0033] For ease of description, spatial relative terms may be used in the text to describe the relative positional relationship or movement of one element or feature relative to another element or feature shown in the figure. Such spatial relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation, in addition to the orientations depicted in the figure.

[0034] To address the existing technical problems of difficult and time-consuming manual microphone assembly, this application provides a microphone mounting fixture. This fixture positions the flexible microphone mounting base with the corresponding mounting holes on the frame of the smart home product using the placement slot of the fixing base. Then, a pressing hammer is used to press the flexible mounting base into the mounting holes on the frame, effectively meeting the needs of microphone assembly and fixing, and significantly improving the overall assembly efficiency.

[0035] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This application provides a microphone mounting fixture for pushing a flexible mounting base 41 containing the microphone 4 into the frame housing 3 of a smart home product, including: a fixing base 1 and a pressing hammer 2;

[0036] The fixed base 1 is provided with a clamping structure 12 and a placement slot 11. The clamping structure 12 and the placement slot 11 are respectively disposed on both sides of the fixed base 1. The clamping structure 12 is used to fix it to the frame housing 3. The placement slot 11 extends through the upper and lower surfaces of the fixed base 1 and provides guidance for the insertion and assembly of the flexible mounting base 41. Before assembling the microphone 4 with the frame housing 3, the microphone 4 is installed in the flexible mounting base 41. At the same time, the fixed base 1 is clamped and fixed to the frame housing 3 by the clamping structure 12, so that the position of the placement slot 11 corresponds to the mounting hole on the frame housing 3. Then, the flexible mounting base 41 is sent into the placement slot 11, so that one end of the flexible mounting base 41 contacts the mounting hole on the frame housing 3.

[0037] The pressing hammer 2 is equipped with a pressing pin 23, which is used to insert into the placement slot 11 and push the flexible mounting base 41 equipped with the microphone 4 from the fixed base 1 towards the frame body 3. When the flexible mounting base 41 equipped with the microphone 4 is pushed into the frame housing 3, the pressing pin 23 extends into the placement slot 11, and the end of the pressing pin 23 contacts the flexible mounting base 41. Then, the pressing hammer 2 applies a downward force to the flexible mounting base 41, causing one end of the flexible mounting base 41 to be deformed by pressure and penetrate into the frame housing 3.

[0038] When assembling the microphone 4, first place the mounting base 1 on the frame body 3 of the smart home product, ensuring that the placement slot 11 on the mounting base 1 corresponds to the mounting hole on the frame body 3. Place the flexible mounting base containing the microphone 4 into the placement slot 11 of the mounting base 1, ensuring that one end of the flexible mounting base passes through the mounting hole of the frame body 3 and contacts the mounting hole. Insert the end of the pressing hammer 2 into the placement slot 11, ensuring that the front end of the pressing hammer 2 contacts the microphone 4 or the flexible mounting base 41 of the microphone 4. Apply a downward force to the pressing hammer 2, causing the front end of the pressing hammer 2 to exert downward pressure on the flexible mounting base 41, thereby pressing the front end of the flexible mounting base 41 into the mounting hole of the frame body 3, thus fitting the flexible mounting base 41 into the mounting hole of the frame body 3 and securing the microphone 4. In the embodiments provided in this application, the placement slot 11 provides positioning for the assembly of the flexible mounting base 41 of the microphone 4, allowing the flexible mounting base 41 of the microphone 4 to be stably installed into the mounting hole, avoiding misalignment during installation that would affect the assembly effect. Simultaneously, the pressing hammer 2 presses the flexible mounting base 41 of the microphone 4 into the mounting hole. Compared to the prior art method of pressing by hand, this avoids discomfort to the operator's fingers due to the small contact area, improving the operator's comfort during the assembly process.

[0039] In some optional embodiments, since there may be multiple mounting holes for the microphone 4 on the frame body 3, in the embodiments provided in this application, placement slots 11 are respectively provided on the fixing base 1 corresponding to different mounting holes on the frame body 3. This allows multiple sets of microphones 4 to be assembled after the fixing base 1 is placed and fixed to the frame body 3 once. If the fixing base 1 is provided with only a single placement slot 11, when assembling the microphone 4, the fixing base 1 needs to be moved so that the placement slot 11 corresponds to the position of the corresponding mounting hole on the frame body 3. Then, the flexible mounting base 41 of the microphone 4 is placed into the placement slot 11, and the microphone 4 and the flexible mounting base 41 are pressed into the mounting hole by the pressing hammer 2. Then, the fixing base 1 is moved to the corresponding position of another mounting hole on the frame body 3, the flexible mounting base 41 with the microphone 4 is placed into the placement slot 11, and the microphone 4 and the flexible mounting base 41 are pressed into the mounting hole by the pressing hammer 2. This method requires repeated mechanical operations, and each time the position of the fixed seat 1 is adjusted, the placement slot 11 on the fixed seat 1 needs to be matched and corrected with the mounting hole on the frame body 3 to ensure the assembly effect of the flexible mounting seat 41 of the microphone 4.

[0040] If multiple sets of placement slots 11 are set on the fixed base 1, so that each set of placement slots 11 corresponds one-to-one with the mounting holes on the frame body 3, then after adjusting the position of the fixed base 1, the placement slots 11 can correspond to the mounting holes respectively. Thus, after completing the assembly of one set of microphones 4, it is not necessary to adjust the position of the fixed base 1 again, and the next set of microphones 4 can be directly assembled, which effectively improves the overall assembly efficiency and assembly accuracy.

[0041] In some optional embodiments, a clamping structure 12 is provided on one side of the fixing seat 1, and the fixing seat 1 is fixed to the upright plate 31 of the frame body 3 by the clamping structure 12. Before assembling the flexible mounting base 41 of the microphone 4, the clamping structure 12 of the fixing seat 1 is clamped to the upright plate 31 of the frame body 3 to achieve the positioning and fixation of the fixing seat 1, so that the positional relationship between the fixing seat 1 and the frame body 3 is relatively fixed.

[0042] In some specific embodiments, the clamping structure 12 is provided with a clamping groove 121, which is inserted into the upright plate 31 of the frame body 3. When the fixing seat 1 is placed on the frame body 3, the clamping groove 121 is clamped onto the upright plate 31 of the frame body 3. The clamping groove 121 and the upright plate 31 provide a limiting distance, thereby effectively preventing the fixing plate from shaking. During the process of pressing the microphone 4 and the flexible mounting seat 41 into the mounting hole using the pressing hammer 2, the mutual support between the clamping groove 121 and the upright plate 31 can prevent the fixing seat 1 from moving and causing misalignment, effectively improving the processing accuracy of assembling the microphone 4.

[0043] In some optional embodiments, a plurality of clamping ribs 122 are provided in the clamping groove 121, with different clamping ribs 122 arranged opposite to and spaced apart within the clamping groove 121. When the clamping structure 12 is fitted onto the upright plate 31, the relative position between the upright plate 31 and the clamping structure 12 can be adjusted through the opening slot section 123, thereby placing the upright plate 31 between the clamping ribs 122 of the clamping structure 12. This effectively achieves fixed positioning between the upright plate 31 and the clamping structure 12, ensuring the stability of the fixing seat 1 during the assembly of the microphone 4 and effectively improving the clamping effect. In some optional embodiments, the clamping ribs 122 are symmetrically arranged inside the opening of the clamping groove 121. Therefore, when the upright plate 31 is clamped and fixed by the clamping ribs 122, the symmetrical arrangement makes the force applied by the clamping ribs 122 to the upright plate 31 more stable and reliable, improving the clamping effect and ensuring the stability of the clamping state.

[0044] In some optional embodiments, the clamping through groove 121 includes a clamping groove section and an open groove section 123. The open groove section 123 is located at the open end of the clamping through groove 121 and communicates with the clamping groove section. The open groove section 123 gradually expands from the clamping groove section to the open groove section 123. By gradually expanding the open groove section 123, a guiding function can be provided between the clamping structure 12 and the upright plate 31 of the frame body 3 during clamping assembly. This ensures that the upright plate 31 remains at the center position of the clamping groove section of the clamping structure 12 after assembly, thereby ensuring the stability of the relative position between the fixing seat 1 and the frame body 3. This facilitates the alignment and matching of the placement slot 11 with the mounting holes on the frame body 3, improving assembly accuracy.

[0045] In some optional embodiments, the side of the fixing base 1 is provided with a microphone placement hole 111, which communicates with the placement slot 11. In some optional embodiments, the microphone placement hole 111 is located at one end of the fixing base 1 near the frame body 3. When it is necessary to assemble the microphone 4, the flexible mounting base 41 containing the microphone 4 can be pushed from the side of the fixing base 1 into the microphone placement hole 111, and the flexible mounting base 41 can be pushed inward so that the flexible mounting base 41 enters the placement slot 11. At this time, the bottom of the flexible mounting base 41 contacts the mounting hole on the frame body 3. Then, by extending the end of the pressing hammer 2 from the top of the placement slot 11 and pressing the microphone 4 downward after contacting it, the end of the flexible mounting base 41 fitted on the outside of the microphone 4 passes through the mounting hole, and the body of the flexible mounting base 41 is locked into the mounting hole of the frame body 3, thereby realizing the assembly of the microphone 4.

[0046] Because the overall structure of the microphone 4 and the flexible mounting base 41 is relatively small, if the flexible mounting base 41 is placed into the placement slot 11 from the top, it is prone to deflection during its descent. This can alter the relative position between the flexible mounting base 41 and the mounting hole when it is pressed into the mounting hole, requiring manual re-adjustment and affecting overall assembly efficiency. However, by pushing the flexible mounting base 41 from the side of the fixed base 1 into the placement slot 11 through the microphone placement hole 111, the distance between the bottom of the flexible mounting base 41 and the frame body 3 is smaller when it enters the placement slot 11. This effectively prevents the flexible mounting base 41 from deflecting during descent, thus avoiding the need for secondary re-adjustment by the operator and significantly improving the efficiency and quality of microphone 4 assembly.

[0047] In some optional embodiments, the side of the mounting base 1 is provided with a wire harness clearance groove 112 that communicates with the placement slot 11. The wire harness clearance groove 112 extends from the microphone placement hole 111 to the bottom surface of the mounting base 1. Since the microphone 4 is connected to a wire harness for connecting the microphone 4 to the control system, by providing the wire harness clearance groove 112 below the microphone placement hole 111, when the flexible mounting base 41 containing the microphone 4 is pushed from the microphone placement hole 111 into the placement slot 11, the wire harness clearance groove 112 can provide clearance for the microphone 4's wire harness, allowing the wire harness to pass through the wire harness clearance groove 112 and avoiding interference with the overall operation.

[0048] In some alternative embodiments, please refer to Figure 5 The placement slot 11 is a tapered hole, and the diameter of the tapered hole gradually decreases from the inlet to the outlet of the placement slot 11. When the end of the pressing hammer 2 extends into the placement slot 11, the tapered hole can provide guidance and correction for the end of the pressing hammer 2, so that the end of the pressing hammer 2 can accurately contact the microphone 4 or the flexible mounting base 41.

[0049] In some optional embodiments, a support strip 13 is provided on one side of the fixing base 1, and the bottom surface of the support strip 13 contacts the table or ground where the frame body 3 is placed. When the fixing base 1 is placed on the frame body 3, such that the placement slot 11 on the fixing base 1 corresponds to the mounting hole on the frame body 3, the bottom surface of the support strip 13 contacts the placement table, providing support for the fixing base 1 through the placement table. During the process of pressing the microphone 4 into the mounting hole by the pressing hammer 2, since the support strip 13 contacts the placement table, the placement table provides support for the support strip 13, thereby preventing the fixing base 1 from shifting on the frame body 3 when the microphone 4 is pressed by the pressing hammer 2, which would affect the assembly effect of the microphone 4 and effectively ensure the stability of the overall structure.

[0050] In some optional embodiments, the bottom surface of the support strip 13 is perpendicular to the axis of the placement slot 11 in space, thereby ensuring that when the support strip 13 contacts the placement table to provide support for the fixing seat 1, the relative position between the placement slot 11 and the frame body 3 is stable, ensuring that when the pressing hammer 2 presses down on the microphone 4, the microphone 4 can stably enter the mounting hole, preventing the microphone 4 from being misaligned and affecting the assembly quality.

[0051] In some optional embodiments, the bottom surface of the support strip 13 is provided with anti-slip textures or anti-slip pads. These textures or pads provide an anti-slip effect, preventing the fixing base 1 from sliding to the sides due to lateral forces during the pressing-in process of the microphone 4. By providing anti-slip textures or pads, the stability of the microphone 4 during assembly is effectively ensured, preventing slippage of the fixing base 1 from affecting the relative positional relationship between the flexible mounting base 41 of the microphone 4 and the mounting holes on the frame body 3, thereby effectively ensuring the assembly quality of the microphone 4 when inserted into the mounting holes.

[0052] In some alternative embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 The pressing hammer 2 is equipped with a handle 21, which is connected to the pressing pin 23. The handle 21 provides a convenient gripping position. The handle 21 allows the operator to easily grip the pressing hammer 2, enabling the operator to hold the pressing hammer 2 for pressing and assembling the microphone 4. When pressing and assembling the microphone 4, the pressing pin 23 is inserted into the placement slot 11, and the end of the pressing pin 23 contacts the flexible mounting base 41 or the microphone 4. Then, by gripping the handle 21 and pressing the pressing hammer 2 downwards, the flexible mounting base 41 of the microphone 4 is pressed into the mounting hole of the frame body 3.

[0053] In some optional embodiments, a buffer block is provided at the end of the pressing pin 23. Specifically, a silicone pad is used as the buffer block to avoid damage to the microphone 4 caused by the pressing pin 23 pushing the microphone 4 during the pressing and assembly process, thereby effectively ensuring the yield rate of the microphone 4 after assembly.

[0054] In some optional embodiments, the pressing hammer 2 further includes a limiting block 22, which is disposed at the junction of the handle 21 and the pressing pin 23. The outer diameter of the limiting block 2 is larger than the diameter of the placement slot 11. When pressing the microphone 4 in, the limiting block 22 can limit the maximum downward stroke of the pressing pin 23, preventing the pressing pin 23 from pressing the microphone 4 too deeply and causing the flexible mounting base 41 of the microphone 4 to fall out from the other side of the frame body 3. At the same time, by setting the limiting block 22, the operator's hand can also be protected, preventing the operator's hand from colliding with the fixed base 1 when pressing too deeply, thus avoiding injury to the operator and improving safety during operation.

[0055] This application provides positioning for the assembly of the flexible mounting base 41 of the microphone 4 by placing the slot 11, allowing the flexible mounting base 41 of the microphone 4 to be stably installed into the mounting hole, avoiding misalignment during installation and affecting the assembly effect. At the same time, the flexible mounting base 41 of the microphone 4 is pressed into the mounting hole by the pressing hammer 2. Compared with the method of pressing by hand in the prior art, this can avoid discomfort to the operator's fingers due to the small contact surface, and improve the operator's comfort during the assembly process.
