Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of sound diffusion and is more particularly related to an acoustic device comprising one or more speakers and / or a subwoofer.
  • Acoustic devices which comprise in particular a subwoofer.
  • This box usually contains a speaker and associated electronics. These different components must occupy a relatively small space because the volume of free air in the box determines the performance of the latter. This requires having a box of relatively large dimensions relative to its content.
  • the acoustic device further usually includes auxiliary speakers, a power supply and audio linkages.
  • the invention aims to optimize the size of an acoustic device, in particular to facilitate its transport.
  • an acoustic device comprising at least one box divided into at least one so-called “technical” compartment containing at least one loudspeaker, and a secondary compartment separated from the technical compartment by at least one acoustically transparent wall.
  • the secondary compartment is arranged to be able to store at least one accessory, and is provided with an opening and means for closing said opening so that the secondary compartment, when empty, is acoustically useful, characterized in that the acoustically transparent wall has at least one curtain acoustically transparent and a game of baffles.
  • the storage of at least one accessory in the secondary compartment when not used for acoustic purposes, therefore reduces the overall size of the acoustic device and facilitate its transport by limiting the number of separate elements to carry.
  • the acoustically transparent wall opposes the introduction into the compartment of external elements - dirt, particles - while the secondary compartment is open.
  • the closure means of the opening comprise a cover and means for clamping said cover relative to the secondary compartment.
  • the box can selectively adopt two distinct configurations: one in which the technical compartment and the secondary compartment are attached to each other to cooperate acoustically and another in which the technical compartment and the compartment secondary are detached from each other.
  • the secondary compartment is arranged so that the technical compartment closes the opening of the secondary compartment.
  • the auxiliary loudspeaker is provided with a wireless receiver and cooperates with a wireless transmitter disposed in the technical compartment.
  • the box is provided with a vent 50 in the form of a passage through the box 2, one end 51 is in the technical part 20 and the other end 52 is open on the outside of the box.
  • This vent 50 is typical of the so-called "bass-reflex" subwoofers, that is to say which recover the sound waves emitted inside the box to restore them in phase with the sound emitted at the front of the box in the frequency range around the resonance frequency of the bass-reflex system. Note that in operation, since the two compartments 20 and 30 must form a sealed enclosure, the air must pass through no path other than that defined by the vent.
  • the secondary compartment 30 is arranged to serve, when it does not cooperate acoustically with the technical compartment 20, storage area for accessories generally designated 10.
  • These accessories 10 are here auxiliary acoustic speakers 11, a power supply 12 arranged for cooperate with the power source 23, and audio linkage elements 13 to cooperate with the auxiliary loudspeakers 11 or other additional acoustic device.
  • the auxiliary loudspeakers 11 form right and left satellites of a 2.1 audio system.
  • the auxiliary loudspeakers 11 may be wireless and then include a wireless receiver 14 cooperating with a wireless transmitter 24 disposed in the technical compartment 20, thereby making unnecessary the use of dedicated audio link elements.
  • the box comprises an opening 31, shown in dotted line, for accessing the interior of the secondary compartment 30 and to deposit or remove the accessories.
  • closure means 32 consist of a cover 32.1 cooperating with clamping means 32.2, here a single screw 32.5 through the cover 32.1 through a hole 32.4 and screwing into a dedicated thread 33 of the secondary compartment 30. Since the closure must be sealed, a seal 32.3 is used between the cover 32.1 and an outer face 34 of the compartment 30.
  • the box further comprises an acoustically transparent wall (visually transparent or not) referenced 3 allowing both acoustic cooperation between the technical compartment 20 and the secondary compartment 30, letting the sound waves pass substantially as if there were no wall, when the device 1 is in operation, and to prevent the passage of any dust in the technical compartment 20 or just access in the technical compartment by a user when the secondary compartment is open.
  • an acoustically transparent wall visually transparent or not referenced 3 allowing both acoustic cooperation between the technical compartment 20 and the secondary compartment 30, letting the sound waves pass substantially as if there were no wall, when the device 1 is in operation, and to prevent the passage of any dust in the technical compartment 20 or just access in the technical compartment by a user when the secondary compartment is open.
  • the acoustically transparent wall 3 allows the acoustic cooperation between the technical compartment 20 and the secondary compartment 30 by allowing the passage from one to the other of an air flow F, but also prevents the passage of any dust P.
  • it may comprise at least one acoustically transparent curtain 4 fixed on one side 25 of the technical compartment 20 in addition to a set of baffles 5 disposed in the technical compartment 20. This set of baffles 5 must be arranged so as to let a sufficient air flow F so that the assembly is acoustically transparent.
  • This acoustically transparent wall 3 can adopt different configurations.
  • the acoustically transparent wall 3 may, in a variant that does not fall within the scope of the invention, include the same acoustically transparent curtain 4 but this time in addition to a grid 6 replacing the wall 25 of the technical compartment 20 and making it unnecessary to use a baffle game.
  • the grid 6 can be acoustically transparent only if the orifices constituting it represent at least 50% of its total surface area.
  • the technical and secondary compartments 30 can be detached from one another, forming a box 2 'in two parts, the junction zone being at the level of the acoustically wall transparent 3 of the technical compartment 20 always so that the interior of said technical compartment 20 remains protected from any dust.
  • This detached configuration may be convenient, for example, for transport.
  • the two compartments (20; 30) when the two compartments (20; 30) are attached, it is the technical compartment 20 that serves as a means of closing an opening 31 'of the secondary compartment 30 by which the accessory or accessories 10 are accessible and which therefore adopts a provision substantially different from that previously described.
  • the two compartments (20; 30) forming the caisson 2 again can cooperate acoustically as soon as the acoustic device 1 is in operation.
  • Assembling means (not visible in the figure) adapted to hold the two compartments together are used and comprise, for example, clamping and / or screwing means.
  • a seal at the junction between the two compartments must be ensured.
  • a joint will be considered between the faces in contact at the junction between the two compartments (20; 30).
  • the vent 50 may be multiple or adopt a number of different arrangements and geometries depending on the desired acoustic response.
  • a closed subwoofer that is to say without vent, is also possible according to the invention.
  • sealing means means grouping any type of hatch, sliding or pivoting.
  • the clamping means too can vary. In particular, we will consider the multiplication of screwing, the use of systems by clipping or magnetic closures.
  • the acoustically transparent wall may adopt other shapes or configurations.
  • the acoustically transparent curtain 4 and / or the set of baffles 5 and / or the grid 6 can be fixed on the side of the secondary compartment 30.
  • the use of an acoustically transparent curtain alone is also possible as long as it allows a passage of sufficient airflow F and prevents that of the dust P and access in general inside the technical compartment 20.
