Abstract
Description
microphone Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of microphone structures, and in particular to a luminous microphone. Background Art
[0002] The invention of the microphone dates back to the late 19th century, when scientists were looking for ways to better pick up sound for inventions like the telephone. With the advent of the ribbon microphone in the 1920s, microphones have become more versatile and versatile over time.
[0003] With the development of microphone technology, some existing microphones not only have the function of picking up sound, but also have the function of creating atmosphere. Such microphones usually have a number of LED lights set on their microphone heads, so that the LED lamp beads emit light towards the mesh cover or sponge cover to create atmosphere. However, since the microphone head needs to collect the sound on the scene and transmit it to the back end, the microphone head is used to face the user to ensure better sound collection effect; and the light shines through the mesh cover or sponge cover and shines on the user's head, especially the eyes, which not only affects the user's sight, but also affects the user's normal use of the microphone. In addition, the lighting effect created is also a scattered light effect, resulting in a very poor lighting atmosphere effect.
[0004] Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of this, it is necessary to provide a microphone with better lighting effects.
[0006] An embodiment of the present invention provides a microphone, including a shell assembly, a mounting base, a sound pickup assembly, a control assembly, and a light-emitting assembly, wherein the shell assembly includes a shell having a first accommodating cavity; the mounting base is connected to the shell, and the shell is light-transmitting; the sound pickup assembly includes a microphone head for picking up sound, and the microphone head is mounted on the mounting base; the control assembly includes a first circuit board, which is disposed in the first accommodating cavity and electrically connected to the microphone head; the light-emitting assembly includes a light-emitting unit, which is disposed in the first accommodating cavity and electrically connected to the first circuit board, and the light emitted by the light-emitting unit can pass through the shell. In microphone products, the outer shell occupies most of the area of the product; compared with traditional microphones that integrate the light source in a mesh cover or a sponge cover, there are problems of scattered light effects and low ability to create a lighting atmosphere. The microphone provided in this application is provided with a translucent outer shell, and the light-emitting unit is arranged in the first accommodating cavity, so that the light emitted by the light-emitting unit can be transmitted through the outer shell, so that the microphone product can pick up sound and transmit it while the user or others can observe the large-area lighting effect created by the microphone, thereby creating a cool lighting atmosphere, playing a role in setting the atmosphere, and improving the user experience.
[0007] In one embodiment, the shell assembly further includes an inner shell disposed in the first accommodating cavity, the inner shell is light-transmissive, and the light emitted by the light-emitting unit passes through the inner shell and the outer shell in sequence; the outer shell is a transparent shell, and the inner shell is a translucent shell. Providing a transparent shell can allow the light emitted by the light-emitting unit in the microphone to pass through the transparent shell well without excessive loss, resulting in better lighting effects. At the same time, a translucent inner shell is provided in the transparent shell, so that the light emitted by the light-emitting unit passes through the translucent inner shell and then irradiates out from the transparent shell, making the lighting effect emitted to the outside of the microphone softer, and the translucent inner shell design can also block the internal components of the microphone, such as circuit boards, wires, etc., which plays an aesthetic role. In addition, since the light-emitting unit is provided in the first accommodating cavity, the brightness of the light near the light-emitting unit is relatively stronger, which makes the components around the light-emitting unit, such as circuit boards, wires, etc., easy to see. When viewed through the shell, shadows of internal components such as circuit boards, wires, etc. will be displayed on the shell. Providing a translucent inner shell can avoid this situation, making the overall appearance of the product more beautiful, and the lighting effect of the product is cooler when the light-emitting unit is lit.
[0008] In one embodiment, the shell includes a first opening and a second opening that are connected to the first accommodating cavity and are arranged opposite to each other, and the second opening is located at one end of the shell away from the mounting seat; the shell assembly also includes a cover plate covering the first opening and a bottom plate covering the second opening, the cover plate connects the shell and the mounting seat, and the shell and the mounting seat are arranged on opposite sides of the cover plate; the cover plate is not light-transmitting; the bottom plate is not light-transmitting; the shell assembly also includes a mounting bracket, which is arranged in the first accommodating cavity, and one end abuts the bottom plate and the other end is connected to the mounting seat, and the first circuit board is arranged on the mounting bracket. It can be understood that the first accommodating cavity formed by the cover plate covering the first opening and the bottom plate covering the second opening, together with the outer shell, can protect the component structure located in the first accommodating cavity and extend the service life of the product; at the same time, the opaque design of the cover plate and the bottom plate makes it possible for the light to be transmitted only through the outer shell when the light-emitting unit in the microphone emits light. Both the cover plate and the bottom plate are opaque, so that the lighting effect of the product is reflected on the outer shell, thereby preventing the light from shining on the user or the audience, avoiding interference with the user's use of the microphone, and providing a better user experience of the product.
[0009] In one embodiment, the shell assembly further comprises a partition, the partition connecting the mounting seat and the mounting frame, and the mounting seat and the mounting frame are arranged on opposite sides of the partition, and the partition is provided with a hole for the wire to pass through; the shell assembly further comprises a counterweight block, the counterweight block is arranged on the mounting frame, and the counterweight block and the first circuit board are arranged on opposite sides of the mounting frame; the shell assembly further comprises two decorative sheets, the two decorative sheets are respectively arranged on the side of the cover plate and the bottom plate away from the shell. The provision of the partition can make the position design of the mounting seat and the mounting frame more obvious and easy to distinguish, so that they can be assembled efficiently during assembly, improve production efficiency, and thus reduce the production cost of the product; in addition, the counterweight block is designed to balance the weight of components such as the first circuit board, so as to ensure that the center of gravity of the shell assembly is at a preset position, ensure the self-balancing of the product, and is easier to adjust during use, thereby improving the user experience.
[0010] In one embodiment, the control component also includes an indicator light, which is provided through the shell component and is electrically connected to the first circuit board; the control component also includes a second circuit board, which is provided in the first accommodating cavity and is electrically connected to and controls the indicator light, and the second circuit board is electrically connected to the first circuit board; the control component also includes a function knob, which is provided through the shell and electrically connected to the first circuit board, and the function knob is used to adjust the microphone gain effect and / or volume; the control component also includes a button for controlling the microphone mute, which is electrically connected to the first circuit board, the button is provided through the shell and is arranged parallel to the function knob; the control component also includes a first audio interface for connecting to an external audio device, a headphone interface for connecting to an external headphone, and a second audio interface for connecting to an external device to transmit data, which are provided through the shell component, and the first audio interface, the headphone interface, and the second audio interface are all electrically connected to the first circuit board. Setting the indicator light can provide an indication when the control component controls the microphone, so that the user can more intuitively observe the adjustment effect when adjusting and controlling the microphone, thereby improving the user experience; setting the second circuit board to control the indicator light can enable the indicator light to better achieve various different indication effects; the first audio interface can be connected to other external devices such as sound cards or audio devices to achieve seamless compatibility; the second audio interface can be connected to other devices, such as computers, tablets, etc., to achieve data transmission such as audio data transmission; the dual audio interface design makes the microphone more powerful and convenient for users to use multiple interfaces; the main function of the headphone interface is to connect headphones for transmission of audio signals, thereby allowing users to listen to sounds through headphones.

Providing the third circuit board electrically connected to the light-emitting unit can better control the light emission of the light-emitting unit, achieve various lighting effects, and provide a better user experience; providing multiple third circuit boards and light-emitting units can make the light display on the housing more uniform, enhance the lighting effect of the microphone, and thereby enhance the user experience and improve the competitiveness of the product.
[0012] In one embodiment, the light-emitting component further includes a connector, the connector is provided on one side of the first circuit board, and the light-emitting unit is provided on the connector; there are two connectors, which are provided on opposite sides of the first circuit board, and the connector covers at least a portion of the first circuit board; the light-emitting component further includes a switch button that passes through the shell component, and the switch button is electrically connected to the third circuit board to control the light-emitting unit. The provision of the connector can better fix the light-emitting unit and prevent the light-emitting unit from falling off; at the same time, the two oppositely arranged connectors cover the first circuit board, which can also better protect the first circuit board and better utilize the internal space of the product, thereby reducing the cost of the product; in addition, the light-emitting unit is provided on opposite sides of the first circuit board, and this design can make the light source more evenly distributed; the switch button can control the light-emitting unit to be turned off and adjust the color and flashing mode of the light source, making the product more diverse and powerful.
[0013] In one embodiment, the microphone further includes a base and a support assembly, wherein the support assembly is connected to the base and rotatably connected to the housing assembly; the support assembly includes a bracket and a shaft, wherein one end of the bracket is connected to the base, and the shaft is provided at the end of the bracket away from the base, and the shaft passes through the housing, and the housing can rotate about the shaft. The base is provided so that the microphone can be placed stably on the surface of an object; the housing assembly can rotate relative to the shaft, so that the housing assembly can rotate, making it easier for the user to adjust the tilt angle of the microphone, making it more convenient to use and easier for the microphone to pick up sound, thereby improving the user experience.
[0014] In one embodiment, the support assembly also includes a first gasket having a through hole, the first gasket is arranged between the shell and the bracket, and the rotating shaft is passed through the through hole; the first gasket includes a first part and a second part, the first part and the second part are located on opposite sides of the axis of the through hole, and the thickness of the second part is greater than the thickness of the first part, and the second part is located at one end of the first gasket close to the base; a first mounting hole and a first protrusion are provided on the shell, the first protrusion is arranged around the first mounting hole, the rotating shaft is passed through the first mounting hole, and at least part of the first gasket is passed through the first mounting hole. It can be understood that the first gasket can increase the contact area between the shell and the bracket, so that the shell assembly can maintain the required angle after rotating relative to the bracket to adjust the tilt angle; the first gasket is set to be thin at the top and thick at the bottom, so that the shell assembly can play a supporting and compensating role under the action of gravity and the supporting force of the rotating shaft, and the thickness of the second part is thicker so that it can better support the shell assembly; the shell assembly is light-transmitting, and at the same time, the first mounting hole is opened on the shell, which will inevitably affect the strength of the shell. By setting the first protrusion on the periphery of the first mounting hole, it plays the role of a reinforcing rib, which can strengthen the strength of the shell and avoid the cracking of the shell, thereby ensuring that the product has good quality; at the same time, the first protrusion protrudes from the shell, so that there is a gap between the bracket and the shell, so that when the microphone rotates or is deflected and displaced by external force, there can be avoidance space, thereby avoiding friction and collision between the shell and the bracket, and avoiding damage to the shell, thereby ensuring the beautiful appearance of the microphone product.
[0015] In one embodiment, a positioning post is provided on the first gasket, and the positioning post is located in the first part and faces the side of the shell. A positioning hole is provided at a corresponding position on the shell, and the positioning post is passed through the positioning hole; the support assembly also includes a fastener, and the fastener is connected to the end of the rotating shaft away from the shell, and is located on the side of the bracket away from the shell; the support assembly also includes a second gasket, and the second gasket is provided between the bracket and the fastener; the pickup assembly also includes a mesh cover, and the mesh cover covers the microphone; the shell assembly also includes a sponge cover, and the sponge cover is provided on the mesh cover and abuts the shell. The positioning post is provided on the first gasket and cooperates with the positioning hole on the shell to ensure that the relative position of the first gasket and the shell is fixed. When the shell rotates relative to the rotating shaft, the first gasket rotates with the shell, thereby increasing the friction during rotation and ensuring that the shell assembly can be maintained at the angle required by the user without rotating, thereby improving the stability of the microphone. The arrangement of the fastener allows the rotating shaft to pass through the bracket, ensuring the length of the rotating shaft and also serving as a counterweight. The bracket serves as a fulcrum, so that the shell assembly and the fastener are located at both ends of the rotating shaft, thereby balancing the weight of the shell assembly. In addition, the fastener can also ensure that the rotating shaft does not fall off the bracket. The second gasket can increase the contact area between the bracket and the fastener, providing anti-slip and stabilizing effects. The sponge cover can not only effectively prevent microphone spray, but also protect the microphone capsule from splashing saliva. On the other hand, it can reduce the airflow of plosive sounds directly blowing on the microphone capsule, thereby extending the service life of the microphone and improving the user experience.

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1, 2 and 3. Figures 1 and 2 are three-dimensional views of the microphone 100 provided in an embodiment of the present application at two different angles. When not in use, the microphone 100 can be rotated to the state shown in Figure 1 or 2 for easy storage and carrying; Figure 3 is a three-dimensional view of a usage state of the microphone 100 provided in an embodiment of the present invention.

The usage state shown in Figure 3 is only a schematic diagram of one of the rotation angles; the microphone 100 disclosed in this application can be rotated and maintained at different angles according to user needs, and this application will no longer display or elaborate on them one by one.
[0033] Referring to Figures 4 and 5, an embodiment of the present invention provides a microphone 100, including a shell component 1, a sound pickup component 2, a control component 3, and a light-emitting component 4. The shell component 1 includes a shell 11 having a first accommodating cavity 11d and a mounting base 12; the mounting base 12 is connected to the shell 11, and the shell 11 is light-transmitting; the sound pickup component 2 includes a microphone head 20 for picking up sound, and the microphone head 20 is mounted on the mounting base 12; the control component 3 includes a first circuit board 30, which is disposed in the first accommodating cavity and electrically connected to the microphone head 20; the light-emitting component 4 includes a light-emitting unit 40, which is disposed in the first accommodating cavity 11d and electrically connected to the first circuit board 30, and the light emitted by the light-emitting unit 40 can pass through the shell 11.
[0034] In a product microphone, the shell occupies most of the product area; compared with traditional microphones that integrate the light source in a mesh cover or a sponge cover, there are problems with scattered light effects and a low ability to create a lighting atmosphere. The microphone 100 provided in this application is provided with a light-transmitting shell 11, and the light-emitting unit 40 is provided in the first accommodating cavity 11d, so that the light emitted by the light-emitting unit 40 can be transmitted through the shell 11, so that the microphone 100 can pick up sound and transmit it at the same time, and the user or others can also observe the large-area lighting effect created by the microphone 100, thereby creating a stronger and cooler lighting atmosphere, playing a role in setting the atmosphere and attracting people's attention, and improving the user experience.
[0035] Specifically, the housing assembly 1 further includes an inner housing 13 disposed within the first accommodating cavity 11d. The inner housing 13 is light-transmissive, and light emitted by the light-emitting unit 40 sequentially passes through the inner housing 13 and the outer housing 11. Specifically, the outer housing 11 is transparent, and the inner housing 13 is translucent. Translucent means that the inner housing 13 allows a certain amount of light to pass through, but not enough to clearly display objects or details behind it. The transparent outer shell 11 is provided so that the light emitted by the light-emitting unit 40 in the microphone 100 can pass through the transparent outer shell 11 well without excessive loss, thereby improving the lighting effect. At the same time, the translucent inner shell 13 is provided in the transparent outer shell 11 so that the light emitted by the light-emitting unit 40 passes through the translucent inner shell 13 and then radiates out from the transparent outer shell 11, making the lighting effect emitted to the outside of the microphone 100 softer. The translucent inner shell 13 design can also shield the internal components of the microphone 100, such as circuit boards and wires, thereby achieving an aesthetic effect. In addition, since the light-emitting unit 40 is provided in the first accommodating cavity, the brightness of the light near the light-emitting unit 40 is relatively stronger, which makes the components around the light-emitting unit 40, such as circuit boards and wires, easy to see. When viewed through the outer shell 11, shadows of the internal components, such as circuit boards and wires, will appear on the outer shell 11. The translucent inner shell 13 can avoid this situation, making the overall appearance of the product more beautiful, and the lighting effect of the product is more cool when the light-emitting unit 40 is illuminated.
[0036] Referring to Figures 4 and 9 , in this embodiment, the inner housing 13 has a second accommodating cavity 13a, and the light-emitting unit 40 is disposed in the second accommodating cavity 13a. The outer housing 11 is made of a transparent material, such as glass, organic polymer light-transmitting material (acrylic lamp), light-transmitting composite material, light-transmitting plastic, etc., as long as the outer housing 11 is transparent; the inner housing 13 is made of a translucent material, such as thermoplastic polymer, polymethyl methacrylate, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester, polyvinyl chloride, polyamide, cellulose acetate, polyvinyl chloride, polystyrene, polytetrafluoroethylene, etc., as long as the inner housing 13 is translucent.
[0037] Referring to Figures 4, 5, and 8, the housing 11 includes a first opening 11a and a second opening 11b that communicate with and are disposed opposite the first accommodating cavity 11d. The second opening 11b is located at an end of the housing 11 away from the mounting base 12. The housing assembly 1 also includes a cover plate 14 that covers the first opening 11a and a bottom plate 15 that covers the second opening 11b. The cover plate 14 connects the housing 11 and the mounting base 12, and the housing 11 and the mounting base 12 are disposed on opposite sides of the cover plate 14. The cover plate 14 is not light-transmissive, and the bottom plate 15 is not light-transmissive. In this embodiment, the cover plate 14 and the bottom plate 15 are respectively arranged at the two ends of the outer shell 11, forming the first accommodating cavity 11d with the outer shell 11; the cover plate 14 and the bottom plate 15 also form the second accommodating cavity 13a with the inner shell 13, and the second accommodating cavity 13a is located in the first accommodating cavity 11d; the outer diameter of the inner shell 13 is smaller than the inner diameter of the outer shell 11, and the inner shell 13 is similar in shape and structure to the outer shell 11, and is a barrel-shaped structure with both ends open. A certain spatial distance can be set between the inner shell 13 and the outer shell 11, or the two can abut each other or other connection methods, such as setting a partial shell abutment and setting a partial space. In the embodiment of the present application, a certain spatial distance is set between the inner shell 13 and the outer shell 11, specifically, the inner shell 13 is set parallel to the shell of the outer shell 11, and the distance between them is a certain distance.
[0038] Referring to Figures 6 and 7 , the housing assembly 1 further includes a mounting bracket 16 disposed within the first accommodating cavity 11d. Specifically, the mounting bracket 16 is disposed within the second accommodating cavity 13a, with one end abutting the bottom plate 15 and the other end connected to the mounting base 12. The first circuit board 30 is disposed within the mounting bracket 16. Specifically, in this embodiment, the first circuit board 30 is connected to the mounting bracket 16 using screws. In other embodiments, other connection methods may be used to achieve the connection between the first circuit board 30 and the mounting bracket 16. It can be understood that the first accommodating cavity 11d formed by the cover plate 14 covering the first opening 11a and the bottom plate 15 covering the second opening 11b, together with the outer shell 11, can protect the component structure located in the first accommodating cavity 11d and extend the service life of the product; at the same time, the opaque design of the cover plate 14 and the bottom plate 15 makes it possible for the light to be transmitted only through the outer shell 11 when the light-emitting unit 40 in the microphone 100 emits light. Both the cover plate 14 and the bottom plate 15 are opaque, so that the lighting effect of the product is reflected on the outer shell 11, thereby preventing the light from shining on the user or the audience, avoiding interfering with the user's use of the microphone 100, and providing a better user experience of the product.
[0039] Referring to Figures 4, 5, and 6, in this embodiment, the housing assembly 1 further includes a partition 17, which connects the mounting base 12 and the mounting bracket 16. The mounting base 12 and the mounting bracket 16 are disposed on opposite sides of the partition 17. The partition 17 is provided with a hole for passing wires, wherein the wires are used to electrically connect the microphone 20 and the first circuit board 30. The provision of the partition 17 makes the position design of the mounting base 12 and the mounting bracket 16 more distinct and easier to distinguish, thereby enabling efficient assembly, improving production efficiency, and thus reducing product production costs.
[0040] The shell assembly 1 also includes a counterweight 18, which is provided on the mounting frame 16, and the counterweight 18 and the first circuit board 30 are provided on opposite sides of the mounting frame 16. Specifically, in this embodiment, the counterweight 18 is fixedly connected to the mounting frame 16 by screws. In other embodiments, the counterweight 18 can also be connected to the mounting frame 16 by means of glue or snaps, etc., and this application does not impose any restrictions. The first circuit board 30 is provided with components and is connected to other parts, so the first circuit board 30 has a certain weight. When the first circuit board 30 is provided on one side of the mounting frame 16, it will cause the center of gravity of the shell assembly to be biased toward the side where the first circuit board 30 is located. Therefore, the counterweight 18 is designed to balance the weight of the first circuit board 30 and other components, thereby ensuring that the center of gravity of the shell assembly 1 is at a preset position, ensuring the self-balancing of the product, and being easier to adjust during use, thereby improving the user experience.
[0041] Continuing to refer to Figures 4, 5, and 6, in this embodiment, the housing assembly 1 further includes two decorative sheets 19, which are respectively provided on the side of the cover plate 14 and the bottom plate 15 away from the housing 11. The provision of the decorative sheets 19 can cover the exposed portions of the cover plate 14 and the bottom plate 15, making the product appearance neater and more beautiful.
[0042] Referring to Figures 5 and 6 , the control assembly 3 further includes an indicator light 31, which is disposed through the housing assembly 1, specifically, through the outer shell 11 so as to be exposed externally and electrically connected to the first circuit board 30. The control assembly 3 further includes a second circuit board 32, which is disposed in the first accommodating cavity and electrically connected to and controls the indicator light 31. The second circuit board 32 is electrically connected to the first circuit board 30. The indicator light 31 provides an indication when the control assembly 3 controls the microphone 100, thereby enabling the user to more intuitively observe the adjustment effect when adjusting the microphone 100, thereby enhancing the user experience. The second circuit board 32 controls the indicator light 31, enabling the indicator light 31 to better achieve various different indication effects.
[0043] The control assembly 3 also includes a function knob 33 and a button 34 for muting the microphone 100. The function knob 33 is disposed through the outer housing 11 and electrically connected to the first circuit board 30. The function knob 33 is used to adjust the gain and / or volume of the microphone 100. The button 34 is electrically connected to the first circuit board 30 and is disposed through the outer housing 11, juxtaposed with the function knob 33. Specifically, both the outer housing 11 and the inner housing 13 are provided with holes for the function knob 33 and button 34 to facilitate user operation. In this embodiment, the button 34 can be pressed to mute the microphone 100. Pressing it again can achieve contact muting, providing convenient operation. The function knob 33 has at least two functions. In this embodiment, two functions are used as examples. The first function is to adjust the gain of the microphone 100 by rotating it, and the second function is to adjust the volume of the headphones by rotating it. These two functions are switched by pressing the function knob 33. In other embodiments, the function knob 33 may also have a third or more functions, and the functions can be switched by pressing, integrating multiple function adjustments into one, thereby reducing the overall operation buttons of the product and making the appearance more neat and beautiful.
[0044] Referring to Figure 10 , the control assembly 3 also includes a first audio interface 35 for connecting to an external audio device, a headphone interface 36 for connecting to an external headphone, and a second audio interface 37 for connecting to an external device for data transmission, all of which are provided through the housing assembly 1. The first audio interface 35, the headphone interface 36, and the second audio interface 37 are all electrically connected to the first circuit board 30. Specifically, the first audio interface 35, the headphone interface 36, and the second audio interface 37 are all provided through the base plate 15, which has corresponding openings. The first audio interface 35 can connect to other external devices such as a sound card or audio device, achieving seamless compatibility; the second audio interface 37 can connect to other devices, such as computers and tablets, to transmit data, such as audio data. The dual audio interface design makes the microphone 100 more powerful and facilitates multi-interface usage. The headphone interface 36 primarily connects to headphones for audio signal transmission, allowing the user to listen to audio through headphones. Specifically, the second audio interface 37 can be a USB interface or a Type-C interface.

[0050] Referring to Figures 1-7, the microphone 100 also includes a base 5 and a support assembly 6. The support assembly 6 is connected to the base 5 and rotatably connected to the housing assembly 1. The support assembly 6 includes a bracket 61 and a shaft 62. One end of the bracket 61 is connected to the base 5. The shaft 62 is located at the end of the bracket 61 away from the base 5. The shaft 62 extends through the housing 11, allowing the housing 11 to rotate about the shaft 62. Referring to Figure 7, in this embodiment, the bracket 61 is screwed to the base 5. Specifically, the end of the bracket 61 connected to the base 5 has an internally threaded hole, and a bolt is threadedly connected to the internally threaded hole of the bracket 61 through the base 5. In this embodiment, the base 5 can be removed from the bracket 61 using the bolt, allowing the microphone 100 to be connected to an external cantilever bracket via the internally threaded hole in the bracket 61. This expands the use of the microphone 100, allowing it to be used not only on surfaces such as desktops, but also suspended from an external cantilever bracket. The base 5 is provided so that the microphone 100 can be placed stably on the surface of an object; the shell assembly 1 can rotate relative to the rotating shaft 62, so that the shell assembly 1 can rotate, which is convenient for the user to adjust the inclination angle of the microphone 100, making it more convenient to use and facilitate the microphone head 20 to pick up sound, thereby improving the user experience.
[0051] Referring to Figures 4 and 5 , the support assembly 6 also includes a first gasket 63 having a through-hole 63a. The first gasket 63 is positioned between the housing 11 and the bracket 61, and the rotating shaft 62 extends through the through-hole 63a. Specifically, referring to Figure 12 , the first gasket 63 includes a first portion 631 and a second portion 632. The first portion 631 and the second portion 632 are located on opposite sides of the axis of the through-hole 63a. The second portion 632 is thicker than the first portion 631. The second portion 632 is located at the end of the first gasket 63 closest to the base 5. In this embodiment, the first gasket 63 is made of a soft material, such as silicone or rubber. The first gasket 63 can increase the contact area between the shell 11 and the bracket 61, so that the shell assembly 1 can maintain a required angle after rotating and adjusting the tilt angle relative to the bracket 61; the first gasket 63 is set to be thin at the top and thick at the bottom, so that the shell assembly 1 can play a supporting and compensating role under the action of gravity and the supporting force of the rotating shaft 62, and the thickness of the second part is thicker so that it can better support the shell assembly 1.
[0052] Referring to Figure 8 , the outer shell 11 is provided with a first mounting hole 11c and a first protrusion 111 for reinforcing the outer shell 11. The first protrusion 111 is circumferentially disposed around the first mounting hole 11c. The rotating shaft 62 is disposed through the first mounting hole 11c, and at least a portion of the first gasket 63 is disposed through the first mounting hole 11c. Referring to Figure 9 , in this embodiment, the inner shell 13 is provided with a second mounting hole 13b for the rotating shaft 62 at a position corresponding to the first mounting hole 11c of the outer shell 11. The inner diameter of the second mounting hole 13b is substantially equal to that of the first mounting hole 11c. A second protrusion 131 is disposed on the periphery of the second mounting hole 13b to reinforce the inner shell 13. The shell 11 is light-transmissive, and at the same time, the first mounting hole 11c is opened on the shell 11, which will inevitably affect the strength of the shell 11. By arranging the first protrusion 111 on the periphery of the first mounting hole 11c, it acts as a reinforcing rib, which can strengthen the strength of the shell 11 and avoid the shell 11 from breaking, thereby ensuring that the product has good quality; at the same time, the first protrusion 111 protrudes from the shell 11, so that there is a gap between the bracket 61 and the shell 11, so that the microphone 100 has an avoidance space when it rotates or is deflected and displaced by external force, thereby avoiding friction and collision between the shell 11 and the bracket 61, and avoiding damage to the shell 11, thereby ensuring the beautiful appearance of the microphone 100.
[0053] Specifically, referring again to Figure 12 , the first gasket 63 is provided with a positioning post 633. The positioning post 633 is located on the first portion 631 and faces the outer shell 11. A positioning hole 11e is provided at a corresponding position on the outer shell 11, and the positioning post 633 is inserted into the positioning hole 11e. In this embodiment, the positioning post 633 is made of a soft material and abuts the inner shell 13, specifically the second protrusion 131. In other embodiments, the positioning post 633 may simply be inserted into the positioning hole 11e and may not abut the inner shell 13 or the second protrusion 131. The positioning post 633 on the first gasket 63, coupled with the positioning hole 11e on the outer shell 11, ensures that the relative position of the first gasket 63 and the outer shell 11 is fixed. When the outer shell 11 rotates relative to the rotating shaft 62, the first gasket 63 rotates with the outer shell 11, thereby increasing friction during rotation and ensuring that the housing assembly 1 remains at the desired angle without rotating, thereby improving the stability of the microphone 100.
[0054] Referring to Figures 4 and 5, the support assembly 6 also includes a fastener 64, which is connected to the end of the rotating shaft 62 away from the housing 11 and is located on the side of the bracket 61 away from the housing 11. In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 62 and the fastener 64 are connected in a non-rotatable manner. The end of the rotating shaft 62 connected to the fastener 64 is polygonal in design along the axial view, and a matching groove is provided in the fastener 64, thereby achieving a non-rotatable connection between the rotating shaft 62 and the fastener 64. In other embodiments, the rotating shaft 62 can be fixedly connected to the fastener 64, or integrally formed. The support assembly 6 also includes a second gasket 65, which is provided between the bracket 61 and the fastener 64. The fastener 64 is provided so that the shaft 62 passes through the bracket 61, ensuring the length of the shaft 62 and also serving as a counterweight. The bracket 61 acts as a fulcrum, so that the housing assembly 1 and the fastener 64 are located at both ends of the shaft 62, thereby balancing the weight of the housing assembly 1. In addition, the fastener 64 can also ensure that the shaft 62 does not fall off the bracket 61. The second gasket 65 can increase the contact area between the bracket 61 and the fastener 64, providing anti-slip and stability.
[0055] The pickup assembly 2 also includes a mesh cover 21, which covers the microphone head 20. In this embodiment, the mesh cover 21 also covers the mounting base 12 and abuts the cover plate 14. The housing assembly 1 also includes a sponge cover 10, which covers the mesh cover 21 and abuts the outer shell 11. The sponge cover 10 effectively prevents mic spray and protects the microphone head 20 of the microphone 100 from saliva splashing. It also reduces the airflow of plosive sounds from directly blowing onto the microphone head 20, thereby extending the service life of the microphone 100 and improving the user experience.
