Definitions

  • This present invention relates to a multiple channel speaker system, and more particularly to a multiple channel speaker system which switches different sound channels without any manual switch.
  • the speaker unit comprises a body having a wireless communication section for transmitting acoustic signals of a plurality of channels outputted from a sound source section to speakers corresponding to respective channels while converting them into wireless signals, and a plurality of speakers outputting the wireless signals received from the body section while converting them into voice signals.
  • the body comprises a speaker arrangement position determining section generating arrangement information indicative of the arranging position of each speaker detected with reference to the arranging position of a center speaker, and a section for generating channel set information assigning the channel of acoustic information corresponding to the arranging position of each speaker indicated by the arrangement information wherein the wireless communication section transmits the channel of the acoustic signal to each speaker based on the channel set information.
  • An acoustic apparatus comprising a detachable combination of a stereophonic radio set and monaural tape recorder is disclosed.
  • the tape recorder operates as a monaural element when decoupled from the stereophonic radio but includes a stereophonic head which cooperates with stereophonic elements in the stereophonic radio to produce a stereophonic output when the tape recorder and radio are coupled together.
  • this disclosure discloses a multiple channel speaker system which switches different sound channels rapidly and instinct to overcome the prior art defect.
  • the objective of this disclosure is to provide a multiple channel speaker system capable of switching different sound channels without any press button. Further, another objective of this disclosure is to provide a multiple channel speaker system capable of switching different sound channels rapidly and instinct
  • the multiple channel speaker system comprises a first speaker, a second speaker, a sensing switch and an audio decoder, wherein the second speaker is adjacent to the first speaker, the sensing switch is disposed between the first speaker and the second speaker, and the audio decoder is electrically connected to the sensing switch.
  • the sensing switch When the first speaker is separated from the second speaker, the sensing switch will output a signal to the audio decoder so as to switch sound channels correspondingly.
  • the multiple channel speaker system further comprises a first speaker, a second speaker, a third speaker, at least two sensing switches and an audio decoder, wherein the second speaker is adjacent to the first speaker, the third speaker is adjacent to the second speaker, the sensing switches are disposed between the first speaker and the second speaker, and between the second speaker and the third speaker respectively, and the audio decoder is electrically connected to the sensing switch.
  • the sensing switch When the first speaker is separated from the second speaker, or when the second speaker is separated from the third speaker, the sensing switch outputs a signal to the audio decoder, so as to switch sound channels correspondingly.
  • Fig.1a is the schematic diagram of a preferred embodiment of a multiple channel speaker system according to this disclosure.
  • the multiple channel speaker system 100 is an integrally multiple channel speaker system 100, which essentially comprises a first speaker 102, at least one second speaker 104, a plurality of sensing switches 106 and an audio decoder 108.
  • the first speaker 102 is adjacent to the second speaker 104, and the first speaker 102 is wired connected to the second speaker 104, or the first speaker 102 is wirelessly connected to the second speaker 104.
  • the sensing switch 106 is disposed between the first speaker 102 and the second speaker 104, wherein the sensing switch 106 is a mechanical trigger device or a touched sensing device, and to be emphasized is that this disclosure is not limited to the disclosed embodiments.
  • the audio decoder (Audio Codec IC) 108 electrically connected to the sensing switch 106, is used for judging switching condition of the sound channels by means of receiving an output signal form the sensing switch 106.
  • the first speaker 102 and the second speaker 104 are connected together to form a single sound channel or dual sound channels speaker.
  • the sensing switch 106 disposed between the first speaker 102 and the second speaker 104, outputs a signal to the audio decoder 108. Therefore, the audio decoder 108 switches the multiple channel speaker system 100 from a single sound channel or dual sound channels speaker to a 2.1 sound channels speaker, and switches the two second speakers 104 to left and right sound channels speakers respectively, and further switches the first speaker 102 to a low-sounding speaker.
  • Fig.2a is the schematic diagram of another embodiment of a multiple channel speaker system according to this disclosure.
  • the multiple channel speaker system 200 essentially comprises at least one first speaker 202, at least one second speaker 204, at least one third speaker 206, a plurality of sensing switches 208 and an audio decoder 210.
  • the first speaker 202 is adjacent to the second speaker 204
  • the second speaker 204 is adjacent to the third speaker 206, hence the first speaker 202, the second speaker 204 and the third speaker 206 are wired connected or wirelessly connected to each other.
  • the wireless transmitted technologies include but not limited to infrared wireless transmission or blue tooth wireless transmission.
  • the sensing switches 208 are disposed between the first speaker 202 and the second speaker 204, and between the second speaker 204 and the third speaker 206 respectively, wherein the sensing switches 208 are mechanical trigger devices or touched sensing devices, and to be emphasized is that this disclosure is not limited to the disclosed embodiments.
  • the audio decoder 210 electrically connected to the sensing switches 208, is used for judging switching condition of the sound channels by means of receiving output signals form the sensing switches 208.
  • the first speaker 202, the second speaker 204 and the third speaker 206 are connected together.
  • the sensing switch 208 disposed between the second speaker 204 and the third speaker 206, outputs a signal to the audio decoder 210. Therefore, the audio decoder 210 switches the multiple channel speaker system 200 from a single sound channel or dual sound channels speaker to a 2.1 sound channels speaker, and switches two third speakers 206 to left and right sound channels speakers respectively, and further switches the first speaker 202 and second speaker 204 to low- sounding speakers.
  • the sensing switch 208 disposed between the first speaker 202 and the second speaker 204, also outputs a signal to the audio decoder 210.
  • the multiple channel speaker system 200 switches from a 2.1 to 5.0 sound channels speaker, wherein the first speaker 202 is the main sound channel speaker, the second speakers 204 are the left-front and right-front sound channels speakers, and the third speakers 206 are the left-rear and right-rear sound channels speakers correspondingly.
  • the sensing switches 208 disposed among those speakers, drive the audio decoder 210 to switch sound channels correspondingly, so as to use no any press button.
  • the above mentioned embodiments of this disclosure does not limit to merely switch a single sound channel speaker to a 2.1 or 5.0 sound channels speaker, said single sound channel or dual sound channels speakers can be further switched to 2.0, 5.0 or 7.1 sound channels speakers by adding or removing the speakers correspondingly.
  • the switching sequence of those speakers is to separate the first speaker 202 from the second speaker 204 first, then separate the second speaker 204 from the third speaker 206, such that the purpose of switching a dual channel speaker system to a multiple channel speaker system could be achieved on the same way.
  • one of the objectives of this disclosure can be achieved to switch sound channels directly and instinct when said speakers are separated from each other by means of the sensing switches, which is convenient and efficient because it is not necessary for the user to switch the sound channels by utilizing a manual switch.
