Abstract
The aim is to improve a process and device for transmitting sound with the aid of at least one sound-transmission element which emits sound signals that can be perceived by a person, so as to ensure that low-frequency sound signals, as well as medium- and higher-frequency sound signals, can be transmitted very effectively in a technically simple and therefore inexpensive manner. To that end it is proposed that at least one sound-transmission element should be so arranged on the listener's body as to create a direct sound-transmission pathway from the sound transmission element via the Eustachian tubes to the auditory ossicles.
Description
The present invention relates to the method that a kind of sound transmits, it adopts at least a sound-transmitting apparatus, makes the people can receive voice signal.
Such method for example is used for the broadcast of the music that received by microphone or record in sound-carrier.This sound-transmitting apparatus refers to loud speaker or earphone, and the voice signal that they send is sensed people's auditory system through eardrum.Promptly through being placed in the room in or being installed in loud speaker in the earphone, eardrum is vibrated by voice signal, and voice signal is by hearing organ's reception of people.Specifically, the voice signal that sends passes to eardrum by auditory channel, makes its vibration, and vibration is transferred into people's inner ear bone then, and this 3rd bone continues this vibration is sent to the hearing organ by this so-called oval window.
There is weak point in this known method when transmission is lower than the voice signal of 700HZ frequency, reason is people's the sense of hearing for 700-6, and the voice signal in the frequency range of 000HZ is sensitive especially, that is to say, in this frequency range, only need a less acoustic pressure can feel this frequency.But different therewith is to need quite high acoustic pressure for feeling the frequency that is lower than 700HZ.These characteristics of people's the sense of hearing especially are unfavorable for the transmission effect of music, because in this case, the low-frequency sound signal that is lower than 700HZ is seriously subtracted sound.
Because this sound that subtracts, the voice signal that is used to play the rhythm is forced to withdraw to very less important status, greatly reduces the vividness of the music that transmits.In order to eliminate this side effect, there have been some different solutions at present, can improve the acoustic pressure of low-frequency sound signal.
For example, a known method is used to improve the overall strength of the music sound that is transmitted, because its damping curve becomes more smooth with the increase of acoustic pressure, thereby compares with the high-frequency sound signal with intermediate frequency, and the low-frequency sound signal is louder.
Yet the defective of this known method is intermediate frequency and high-frequency sound signal has the high sound pressure level, produces quite high loudness thus, and under extreme case, this loudness meets or exceeds people's pain limit, and over-burden to cause eardrum, and the time one can cause that for a long time the sense of hearing damages.
Another known method is to compare with the high-frequency sound signal with intermediate frequency, intentionally the low-frequency sound signal is amplified.Its advantage is not reach the pain limit in intermediate frequency and high-frequency range.But the defective of this method is must adopt to have variable amplifying power (amplification coefficient about 1 to 1 * 10
7) the amplifier of complexity could realize that this not only pays very big, and expense costliness also needs sizable energy to supply with in addition.In addition, this method also requires expensive sound-transmitting apparatus, and for example jumbo loud speaker because its complex structure, volume are big, must be made very big input in transportation.
Owing to above all kinds of reason, in fact said method can only be applied in big cinema and discotheque or similar site, but can not satisfy the requirement of private users such as family.
Therefore, the objective of the invention is to improve the method that described existing voice signal sends, make low-frequency sound signal and middle and high frequency voice signal can both by economically, simply technical and send effectively.
Start in the method for described sound transmission at this paper, the object of the present invention is achieved like this: for helping sending the low-frequency sound signal, sound-transmitting apparatus is positioned on the human body, thereby obtains from sound-transmitting apparatus through the direct transfer path of Eustachian tube to people's little ear bones.
Realize that to people's little ear bones particularly the transmission of low-frequency sound signal has significant advantage through Eustachian tube by the sound-transmitting apparatus that is placed on the human body, promptly avoided eardrum, and avoided the damping problem of eardrum thus.Therefore, need not to carry out the damping compensation, this refers to for example to amplify by variable audio frequency and sends the low-frequency sound signal so that adapt to the compensation that people's the sense of hearing is carried out.
This method can realize by enough simple technique devices, and only needs lower energy to supply with.Therefore this method also can be used on the mobile device.
On pure theory, sound-transmitting apparatus can be placed on each diverse location of human body, and for example, sound-transmitting apparatus can be placed in people's the pharyngolaryngeal cavity or nasal cavity.
Best is that sound-transmitting apparatus is placed near the human body breastbone, because breastbone links to each other with rib, links to each other with pleura by rib again, so vibration is sent to whole thoracic cavity, the thoracic cavity makes the air vibration in the lobe of the lung again.Therefrom, vibration is sent to Eustachian tube through oesophagus, is sent to little ear bones then therefrom again.The advantage of this method is that whole thoracic cavity forms an acoustic resonator, plays the effect of the band pass filter that is similar to known secondary woofer.People walk around the sound transmission effect that eardrum obtains especially to help sending the low-frequency sound signal thus.
Now recommend a very favorable method embodiment who is suitable for sending above-mentioned full frequency band voice signal, people pass through another sound-transmitting apparatus for example earphone or loud speaker transmission voice signal, make voice signal can be coupled to people's eardrum.
Like this, in and/or the high-frequency sound signal can transmit by eardrum in common mode, simultaneously, the low-frequency sound signal irrespectively is sent out by another special valid approach therewith, for example sends by the sound-transmitting apparatus on the breastbone zone that is placed in the people.
Sound-transmitting apparatus can be known loud speaker or acoustic resonator etc.
Purpose of the present invention can also realize by means of a kind of like this sound-transmitting apparatus, in this device, at least one sound-transmitting apparatus is positioned on the human body, thereby directly obtains from this sound-transmitting apparatus through the transmission sound path of Eustachian tube to people's little ear bones.
As for the selection of the audio signal through being placed in the sound-transmitting apparatus transmission on the human body like this, particularly advantageous is to connect at least one to be used for the distributor that voice signal distributes after at least one sound-transmitting apparatus.
Say in principle, can use different distributors, useful is that at least one distributor comprises at least one frequency filtering apparatus.
About frequency filter, can use different this type of devices of expecting, useful is to adopt low pass filter as frequency filter, says technically, realizes than being easier to.
Also possible is that the frequency filtering apparatus comprises frequency-selector, low pass filter and high pass filter.Wherein, by sending the eardrum of coupling audio through other dispensing device with the high-frequency sound signal in the high pass filter to the people.
Here the sound-transmitting apparatus of Kao Lving also can adopt different devices, and simple this type of device of technology is loud speaker and/or acoustic resonator.
