[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a microphone holding device for holding a microphone in a vertical state. More specifically, the microphone can be reliably supported by simply inserting the microphone from below to above. The present invention relates to a microphone holding device that can be removed simply by pulling it down.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art For example, when a microphone is held in a predetermined place when not in use, the simplest method is to attach a hook to a wall or the like and hold the microphone by hooking the hook. Further, a pair of support arms protrude with a gap through which the grip portion of the microphone can pass, and a microphone support portion having a size larger than the gap and smaller than the maximum diameter of the sound pickup portion at the center of the support arm. There is also widely used a holding device in which the microphone is lowered through the gap, and then the microphone is lowered to drop the sound pickup section into the support section, and the microphone is held by the support section. As a modification of the latter, there is also known a holding device of a holding type in which a holding portion of a microphone is held by being elastically held by a pair of holding arms.

[0003]

However, in the case of the former type in which the microphone is held by the hook, it is necessary to provide a ring member or the like for hanging the microphone on the hook. However, excessive force may be applied to the microphone. Further, since the microphone holding portion is inserted from the gap to hold the sound pickup portion, these portions are easily damaged. Also,
In the conventional example of the sandwiching type, the holding arm has to be opened against the elastic urging force every time the holding is performed, and in any case, attaching and detaching the microphone is troublesome.

[0004] The present invention has been made in view of such a situation of the prior art, and an object thereof is to provide a microphone holding device in which the microphone can be easily attached and detached and the microphone is not easily damaged. .

[0005]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides a microphone comprising a sound pickup section and a grip section, wherein the sound pickup section has a larger diameter than the outer shape of the grip section. In a microphone holding device that holds in a vertical state, when the sound pickup unit is inserted from below, the sound pickup unit is released according to the outer shape of the sound pickup unit, and when the sound pickup unit passes through the sound pickup unit, the microphone is reduced according to the outer shape. An elastic holding means for holding the microphone at a substantially joined portion between the sound pickup unit and the grip unit is provided.

In this case, the elastic holding means is installed so as to cross the insertion hole and at least the support base having the insertion hole through which the sound collecting section can pass, and is stretched so as to be substantially equal to the outer shape of the gripping member. Or at least two pairs of elastic support band members, or holding means, a support base, two pairs of support members extending on the lower surface side of the support base and having rollers attached to the lower ends thereof. And a resilient biasing member for resiliently biasing the support member in a direction in which the rollers approach each other.

[0007]

According to the above-mentioned means, when the microphone is gripped by the hand and inserted into the holding portion from below, the holding portion opens along the outer shape of the sound collecting portion and passes through the maximum diameter portion of the sound collecting portion. Is closed along the outer shape of the sound pickup section, and is held at a boundary portion between the grip section and the lower surface side of the sound pickup section. When removing, hold the grip and pull it down,
It opens according to the outer shape of the sound pickup section, and when it passes through the maximum diameter portion, the restrained state is released and the sound pickup section can be removed.

[0008]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a use state of the microphone holding device according to the first embodiment. In FIG. 1, the holding device 1 comprises a support base 2 and a rubber band 3 as an elastic support band member. . As can be seen from FIG. 2 in which the support base 2 is exploded, the support base 2 is
a and a lower base 2b, each of which is formed with an insertion hole 6 through which a sound pickup unit 5 covered with at least a protection net or the like of the microphone 4 can be inserted. As shown, the locking projections 8a, 8b, 8c are projected in pairs, and the pair of locking projections 8 are opposed to each other.
The rubber bands 3 are respectively locked to a, 8b, and 8c, thereby being stretched in a lattice shape as shown in FIG. As can be seen from FIG. 1, the interval L between the rubber bands 3 is set to a dimension substantially equal to the diameter of the grip 7 of the microphone 4. The holding device 1 configured as described above includes the locking projections 8a, 8b, 8
After locking the rubber band 3 to each of the c and stretching the rubber band 3,
The upper base 2a and the lower base 2b are overlapped and elastically integrated by a known structure such as a switch fit and assembled. The locking projections 8a and 8b
Is smaller than the diameter of the rubber band 3 stretched on the locking projection 8c.

After assembling the holding device 1 in this manner, the holding device 1 is set horizontally at a microphone holding portion (not shown). When set in this way, the insertion hole 6 is opened vertically. Therefore, holding the holding portion 7 of the microphone 4, the sound collecting portion 5 is positioned from below the insertion hole 6.
When the rubber band 3 is inserted, the rubber band 3 elastically opens along the outer shape of the sound pickup unit 5, and conversely closes elastically after passing through the maximum diameter portion. Return to Then, when the hand is released from the grip portion 7, the sound collecting portion 5 is placed on the parallel rubber bands 3 and is elastically held by the rubber bands 3.

When detaching the microphone 4 from the holding device 1, simply pulling the microphone 4 downward with the grip 7 operates in the opposite manner as described above to open the rubber band 3 and can easily remove it.

Therefore, the operation of holding or removing the microphone can be easily performed simply by inserting the microphone 4 from below with the grip 7 and pulling down. In addition, since only the rubber band 3 is in contact with the microphone 4, there is no possibility that the microphone 4 will be damaged.

Further, when the elastic force of the rubber band 3 is weakened or cut, the upper base 2a is connected to the lower base 2a.
It is sufficient to remove the rubber band 3 and replace the rubber band 3, and this replacement can be easily performed.

Although the microphone 4 is held by the three rubber bands 3 in the first embodiment,
Instead of the rubber band 3, one rubber cord is used for the locking projections 8a, 8b,
8c may be routed, or the rubber band 3 and the rubber cord may be combined.

The second embodiment shown in FIG. 3 is an example of a holding device for holding the device in such a manner that it is hung from above.

In FIG. 3, which is a perspective view of the holding device and the microphone, the holding device 10 is rotatably supported by a support base 11, two pairs of support arms 12, 13, and lower portions of the support arms 12, 13. Rollers 14 and 15 and springs 16 and 17 for elastically biasing the support arms 12 and 13 in a direction in which the rollers 14 and 15 approach each other. The support arms 12 and 13 are supported by the support base 11 via support shafts 18 and 19, and springs 16 and 17 are supported by support shafts 18 and 1 respectively.
9, and in the initial state, the support arm 1 is formed so as to form an inverted triangle having the base as the base when viewed from the side.
2,13 are energized. Therefore, the triangle formed by the support base 11 and the support arms 12 and 13 is set to a size that can sufficiently include the sound pickup unit 5 of the microphone 4.

The rollers 14 and 15 are supported by the support arms 12 and 13 respectively.
Are supported rotatably via support shafts 20 and 21, but slide grooves 22 and 23 are cut in mounting portions of the support arms 12 and 13 to the support shafts 20 and 21, so that the support shafts 20 and 21 are cut. Reference numeral 21 is slidably mounted along the sliding grooves 22 and 23. As can be seen from the drawing, the rollers 14 and 15 are formed in a columnar shape with a hollow central portion made of an elastic rubber material.

When the microphone 4 is held by using the holding device 10 configured as described above, the microphone 4 is mounted horizontally at a position where the support base 11 is held, and as shown in FIG. From the microphone 4 of the microphone 4. Then, as shown in FIG.
Reference numerals 4 and 15 denote sliding grooves 22 and 2 which are pushed by the outer shape of the sound pickup section 5.
When the support shafts 20 and 21 move along the line 3 and pass the maximum diameter portion of the sound pickup section 5, the rollers 14 and 15 are no longer pushed, so that the rollers 14 and 15 descend along the sliding grooves 22 and 23, It stops at the lowermost part of the sliding grooves 22 and 23. When the microphone 4 is released in such a state, the lower part of the sound pickup unit 5 stops on the rollers 14 and 15 by its own weight as shown in FIG. 5, and the microphone 4 is held by the holding device 10. .

When the microphone 4 is to be detached,
When the microphone 4 is pulled downward from the state shown in FIG.
The support arms 12 and 13 are gradually opened against the elastic biasing forces 6 and 17. Then, as shown in FIG. 4, when passing through the maximum diameter portion of the sound pickup unit 5 from the rollers 14 and 15, the microphone 4
Is released from the holding device 10, and the microphone can be removed.

In the second embodiment, the sliding grooves 22 and 23 are provided in both the pair of supporting arms 12 and 13, but only one pair of supporting arms may be provided. May be configured so that the support arms 12 and 13 are opened when pushed down.

When the support arms 12 and 13 are held using the pair of support arms 12 and 13 as described above, the microphones 4 are attached to the support arms 12 and 13.
The springs 16 and 17 are supported by the support arms 12 and
The microphone 13 only needs to have an elastic force that does not open due to its own weight, and does not require a strong elastic force. Therefore, the microphones 4 are damaged due to the fact that the rollers 14 and 15 are formed of rubber material. There is no fear.

[0022]

[Effect of the Invention] As is clear from the above description, when the sound pickup section is inserted from below, it is released according to the outer shape of the sound pickup section, and when the sound pickup section passes through the maximum diameter portion, it is reduced according to the outer shape.
