Removable Battery Charging Dock for Intelligent Loudspeakers
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional charging solutions for portable intelligence loudspeaker boxes are inconvenient due to bulky charging cables and limited mobility, as they require fixed placement and are not easily portable.
Innovation Solution
A charging dock with a pogo pin connector and battery module that allows for both wired and wireless charging, enabling the intelligence loudspeaker box to receive power and store it for later use, while also providing a BLUETOOTH 5.0 function for one-to-many connections, enhancing convenience and portability.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a charging cable is used to connect the charging device to the intelligence loudspeaker box, then the charging device can provide power to the loudspeaker box, but the charging cable becomes bulky and limits mobility
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts the battery module from the charging dock, allowing it to be separated from the main body. This enables the battery to be removed and carried independently, eliminating the need for a long charging cable while maintaining the ability to charge the loudspeaker box when needed.
Solution Approach 2:
The charging device is divided into separate components: a charging dock with a pogo pin connector and a removable battery module. This segmentation allows the battery to be detached and transported separately, solving the mobility limitation imposed by a fixed charging cable.
2Reliability
If the charging device is fixed to one place by the charging cable, then stable power supply is achieved, but the charging device loses portability
Solution Approach 1:
The battery module is extracted as a separate, removable component from the charging dock. Users can take the battery with them when moving, maintaining portability while ensuring reliable power supply when the battery is connected to the loudspeaker box for charging.
Solution Approach 2:
The pogo pin connector acts as an intermediary between the charging dock and the battery module, enabling easy connection and disconnection. This allows the battery to be reliably connected when needed for stable power supply, yet easily removed when portability is required.
3Use of energy by moving object
If a traditional charging cable is used, then power can be transmitted to the loudspeaker box, but the charging device becomes bulky and inconvenient to carry
Solution Approach 1:
The battery module is extracted as a separate component that can be removed from the charging dock. This reduces the weight of the main charging dock that users need to carry, while the battery itself can be transported separately or left at the charging location.
Solution Approach 2:
By segmenting the charging device into a stationary dock and a removable battery module, the system allows users to leave the heavier dock at home or in a fixed location, carrying only the lighter battery when mobility is needed.
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
The charging dock effectively addresses the inconvenience of traditional charging methods by providing a compact, portable solution that allows for flexible placement and wireless charging, enabling continuous use of the intelligence loudspeaker box and facilitating connections with multiple devices.
Implementation Method 1
the pogo pin connector being connected with the docking element, when the charging cable is disposed in the charging hole, the charging dock receives electric power transmitted from the intelligence loudspeaker box
Implementation Method 2
the charging dock receives electric power transmitted from the intelligence loudspeaker box to make the battery module store the electric power
Implementation Method 3
A wireless charging board is disposed to a bottom surface of the lower shell
