Splittable Speaker Buckle Assembly for Stable Detachable Pairing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing speaker assemblies using magnetic attraction for auxiliary speakers are unstable, leading to easy separation of auxiliary speakers from main speakers.
Innovation Solution
A splittable speaker assembly with a driving structure movably connected to the main speaker, which engages or disengages a buckle structure to securely attach or detach auxiliary speakers through sliding or rotational mechanisms, enhanced by elastic members and magnetic connections.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If magnetic attraction is used to assemble auxiliary speakers with main speakers, then the assembly process is simple, but the assembly stability is insufficient and auxiliary speakers are easily separated
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the purely magnetic attraction system with a hybrid system combining magnetic force and mechanical buckles. The buckle structure includes a buckle body with a clamping mechanism that physically interlocks with the auxiliary speaker, while magnets provide additional holding force. This substitution of magnetic-only connection with a mechanical-magnetic hybrid connection resolves the contradiction by maintaining assembly simplicity while dramatically improving stability and preventing easy separation.
2Reliability
If a secure mechanical connection is implemented, then assembly stability is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The connection system is segmented into distinct functional components: a buckle structure for mechanical interlocking, a magnet assembly for magnetic attraction, and a driving structure for actuation. The buckle structure itself is segmented into a buckle body, buckle ear, and elastic member. This segmentation allows each component to perform its specific function efficiently while keeping the overall design manageable and maintainable, resolving the contradiction between stability and complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The connection mechanism incorporates dynamic elements including an elastic member that provides resilient clamping force, and a driving structure with sliding and rotating components that enable smooth transitions between connected and disconnected states. The elastic member automatically adjusts to maintain optimal clamping pressure, while the sliding buckle ear provides smooth mechanical motion. These dynamic features improve reliability without requiring overly complex control systems.

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 assembly provides stable attachment and easy detachment of auxiliary speakers, improving user experience and operational efficiency.
Implementation Method 1
an clastic member is arranged on another end of the first sliding portion. In a case where the driving structure is in the first state, the clastic member is in a state of clastic deformation, and the clastic force generated by the clastic deformation of the clastic member is configured to cause the first sliding portion to drive the first engaging portion to move
Implementation Method 2
the auxiliary speakers are generally assembled with the main speakers by magnetic attraction

AI summary
A splittable speaker assembly and a main speaker for a splittable speaker assembly are disclosed. For the splittable speaker assembly, the driving structure is movably connected to the main speaker and abuts against an end of the buckle structure to drive the buckle structure to move. In a case where the driving structure is moved to a first state relative to the main speaker, the buckle structure is moved to a position where the buckle structure is engaged with the mating portion, such that the auxiliary speaker is engaged with the main speaker. In a case where the driving structure is moved to a second state relative to the main speaker, the buckle structure is moved to a position where the buckle structure is separated from the mating portion, such that the auxiliary speaker is disengaged from the main speaker.
