Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a speaker cabinet, and more particularly to a wall-mounted resin speaker cabinet.

Since the speaker cabinet is the largest of the audio components, when installing it in a relatively small room, it is necessary to harmonize with the interior design of the room and take into account the issue of the space it occupies. Therefore, it is recommended to use a so-called flat speaker cabinet, which has the same height and width as a normal high-speed speaker cabinet, but has a depth as small as possible, by hanging it on a wall or leaning it against the wall. is being carried out. Flat-type speaker cabinets are only a fraction of the volume of conventional high-wire speaker cabinets, but due to advances in materials and improvements in design and manufacturing technology, they have recently become superior in volume and sound quality to large-scale high-speed speaker cabinets. Products that are comparable to speaker cabinets have been commercialized.

The present invention is a flat-shaped wall-mounted speaker cabinet made of resin to facilitate mass production, weight reduction, and uniformity of quality.It can also be used as a wall interior and has sufficient acoustic characteristics. The purpose is to provide a wall-mounted speaker cabinet.

In the wall-mounted resin speaker cabinet according to the present invention, a grill board is arranged on the main surface of the butt-full part corresponding to the mounting position of the speaker, and the grill board is attached to the speaker cabinet by the same fixing means as the butt-full part. It is fixed to the vignette body.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A wall-mounted resin speaker cabinet according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As is clear from the attached drawings, for example, Figure 1,
The entire front surface of the speaker cabinet body 1 is open. The speaker cabinet main body 1 is integrally molded from a thermoplastic resin such as ABS, and has a large number of substantially lattice-shaped ribs 1a on its inner surface. A side surface of the speaker cabinet body 1 is formed with a sloped portion 1b that slopes inward toward the rear surface of the cabinet.
By providing this inclined portion 1b, the distance between the side surfaces of the speaker cabinet body 1 changes in the direction perpendicular to the baffle plate, which will be described later, due to the sound waves emitted from the speaker, which will be described later. This is preferable because only standing waves do not occur, and the speaker cabinet main body 1 and the baffle plate do not strongly resonate only at a specific frequency. In addition, the speaker cabinet body 1
When injection molding, the resin injection port (gate) is usually provided corresponding to the back surface of the speaker cabinet body, but as described above, the sloped portion 1b is formed on the side surface of the speaker cabinet body 1. By providing this, the resin flows smoothly during molding, and so-called sink marks are prevented from occurring.

An opening 1c is provided in the inclined portion 1b near the corner of the speaker cabinet body 1,
A signal terminal plate 2 is fitted into the opening and fixed with a screw (not shown) via a sealing member 2a.

A longitudinal rib 1d is integrally formed on the inner surface of the speaker cabinet body 1 and extends substantially parallel to the longitudinal direction of the speaker cabinet body. This long rib 1
By providing d, the speaker cabinet main body 1 can be integrally formed with a thin wall as a whole, and therefore, sink marks and warpage in appearance can be kept small. Furthermore, since thin walls can be formed, molding speed is increased, and less resin material is required, resulting in a significant cost reduction. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, this longitudinal rib 1
A hollow portion 1e is formed in the inner portion d, thereby further reducing the weight of the longitudinal rib and, therefore, of the speaker cabinet body 1. The longitudinal rib 1d is arranged such that the distances between both side surfaces of the longitudinal rib and the corresponding side surfaces of the speaker cabinet are different. As a result, standing waves of a specific frequency do not stand between the mutually opposing side surfaces of the speaker cabinet body 1 across the longitudinal ribs, and the speaker cabinet body 1 and the buff-full plate described below It no longer resonates strongly only at specific frequencies.

As is clear from FIGS. 1, 3, and 4, a stepped portion 1f is formed at the front peripheral edge of the speaker cabinet body 1, and is designed to cover the front surface of the speaker cabinet body 1. The arranged buttful plate 3 is attached to this stepped portion 1f with a sealing member 3a.
(see FIG. 1), and is fixed to the speaker cabinet body 1 with a plurality of screws (not shown). The baffle board 3 is obtained by press-molding particle board, for example, and has a predetermined sound-absorbing effect. The tips of the longitudinal ribs 1d are in contact with the back surface of the buff-full plate 3 via a sealing member 3b (see FIG. 1), and are connected to each other by screws (not shown). Therefore, the rigidity of the speaker cabinet as a whole including the baffle plate 3 is extremely increased. Also, although not shown,
A predetermined amount of glass wool is inserted as a sound absorbing material into the space formed by the speaker cabinet main body 1 and the baffle plate 3.

FIG. 11 shows the results obtained through experiments of the relationship between the vibration frequency and vibration level of the bumpy plate 3 in the case where the longitudinal rib 1d is not provided and in the case where this is provided, and the broken line indicates the case where the longitudinal rib 1d is not provided. in,
Further, the case where this is provided is shown by a solid line. As is clear from this experimental graph, the vibration level of the buff-full plate 3 is sufficiently suppressed by providing the longitudinal ribs 1d.

Although this embodiment shows a case in which there is a single longitudinal rib 1d, it may be necessary to provide a plurality of longitudinal ribs depending on the size of the speaker cabinet.
Further, in some cases, it may be necessary to form the longitudinal rib 1d not substantially parallel to the longitudinal direction of the speaker cabinet body 1, but obliquely at a predetermined angle with the longitudinal direction.

A woofer (bass speaker) 4 and a tweeter (treble speaker) 5 are arranged adjacent to each other on the baffle plate 3 near one end thereof. The tweeter 5 has its rear part inserted into an opening 3c formed in the buttful plate 3, and has two screws 5, for example.
It is attached to the full plate 3 by a. Further, the woofer 4 has its rear end inserted through an opening 3d provided in the baffle plate 3, and is attached to the inner surface of the speaker cabinet body 1 together with a part of the buffle plate 3 by, for example, four screws 4a. It is fastened together with the protruding support protrusion 1g. The woofer 4 is attached to the full board 3 in accordance with the mounting position of the woofer 4.
A counterbore portion 3e having an inner diameter larger than the outer diameter of the frame portion 4b is provided, and a sealing member 4c is interposed between the counterbore portion and the frame portion 4b of the woofer 4. The depth of the counterbore portion 3e is approximately equal to the thickness of the frame portion 4b of the woofer 4, and therefore, the thickness of the speaker cabinet as a whole is reduced by an amount approximately equal to the depth of the counterbore portion. . Furthermore, this counterbore portion 3e
By providing this, the positioning of the woofer 4 on the baffle plate 3 becomes reliable and easy. Note that the counterbore portion may be provided corresponding to the tweeter 5. In addition, as described above, by fixing a portion of the buffle plate 3 together with the woofer 4 to the speaker cabinet body 1, the vibration of the buffle plate 3 is suppressed. In addition, a part of the full board 3 and the woofer 4 are connected to the screw 4.
Since they are fixed to the speaker cabinet body 1 by the same fixing means a,
The number of parts of the fixing means and the number of installation steps are reduced by approximately half.

A printed board assembly 6 is fixedly installed on the back side of the baffle board 3 in close proximity to the woofer 4. This printed board assembly 6 performs frequency division in order to supply signals in appropriate bands to the woofer 4 and tweeter 5, respectively.
This forms a so-called dividing network.

A grill board 7 made of resin or the like is provided on the main surface of the baffle plate 3 in correspondence with the mounting positions of the woofer 4 and tweeter 5 so as to cover the peripheral edges of the woofer and tweeter 5. The grill board 7 has a rectangular plate shape as a whole, and the portions corresponding to the diaphragms of the woofer 4 and the tweeter 5 are openings 7a, and the openings are connected to the woofers 4 by boundary sides 7b.
It is divided into a part facing the tweeter 5 and a part facing the tweeter 5. The grill board 7 has its peripheral portion secured to the round board 3 by a plurality of screws 7c.
The support protrusion 1h formed on the inner surface of the speaker cabinet body 1 is fastened together with the support protrusion 1h. in this way,
By fixing the peripheral edge of the relatively thin grill board 7 to the speaker cabinet body 1, the grill board 7 is prevented from warping due to changes in indoor temperature and humidity, for example. It is. Furthermore, since the grill board 7 and a part of the full board 3 are fixed to the speaker cabinet main body 1 by the same fixing means of a plurality of screws 7c, the number of parts and the number of installation steps for the fixing means are reduced. It is being lost.

As is particularly clear in FIGS. 8b and 9a, on the back side of the grill board 7, there is an area protruding in the vicinity of the screws 7c for fixing the grill board, in this case, surrounding the screws 7c and protruding in the direction toward the buttful plate 3. The contact protrusions 7d are formed in the same number as the screws 7c. That is, the grill board 7 is raised from the main surface of the full plate 3 by the height of the abutting protrusion 7d, and vibration of the grill board 7 is prevented.

As shown in FIG. 8a and FIGS. 9a and 9b, a groove 7e of a predetermined depth is formed in the periphery of the main surface of the grill board 7. As shown in FIG. On the other hand, a rectangular net member 9 made of steel or the like and having an outer diameter slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the grill board is provided on the grill board 7. As is particularly clear in FIGS. 10a, b, and c, the peripheral edge of the net member 9 is bent approximately at right angles to the main surface, and the bent portion 9a is aligned with the outer edge of the groove 7e of the grill board 7. It is attached to the grill board by engagement. The bent portion 9a of the net member 9 is provided with protruding portions 9b at six locations, for example, and the tips of the protruding portions are bent outward. on the other hand,
The grill board 7 is formed with the same number of engagement recesses 7f that are continuous with the grooves 7e and correspond to the protrusions 9b, and the protrusions 9b are bent inward to prevent the protrusions from forming. The bent end portion of the engagement recess 7f
It is designed to strongly engage the outer edge of the

By making the engagement state of the peripheral edge of the net member with the grill board 7 firm in this manner, the attachment state of the net member 9 to the grill board 7 is guaranteed even if the grill board 7 and the net member 9 are made thinner. . Therefore, the speaker cabinet as a whole can be easily made thinner.

A vibration isolating plate 10 made of glass or the like and suppressing vibrations of the buffle plate is provided on a portion of the front surface of the buffle plate 3 that is not covered by the grill board 7 and the net member 9. The vibration isolation plate 10 is fixed to the buttful plate 3 with, for example, four screws 10a. This screw 10a can be easily tightened or loosened using a 10 yen coin, for example. A spacer 10b made of resin or the like, which also serves as a washer, is interposed between the screw 10a and the vibration isolating plate 10.

An adhesive tape 11 made of, for example, styrofoam and a vibration absorbing plate 12 made of hard paper or the like are provided between the vibration isolation plate 10 and the double plate 3, and the adhesive tape 11 is attached to the double plate 3. . The adhesive tape 11 and the vibration absorbing plate 12 are provided together with the vibration isolating plate 10 to further suppress the vibration of the buffer plate 3, and their materials are not limited to the above-mentioned styrofoam and hard paper, but may also be made of vibration absorbing materials such as rubber. Any elastic body that has an effect may be used. In addition, vibration isolating plate 1
The material of 0 is not limited to the above-mentioned glass, and cork or the like may also be used.

A colored paper 13 is sandwiched between the vibration isolating plate 10 and the vibration absorbing plate 12, taking advantage of the transparency provided by the vibration isolating plate being made of glass. A favorite color can be selected as the colored paper 13, and furthermore, a photograph or a painting can be placed between the colored paper and the glass anti-vibration plate 10. Furthermore, if the material of the vibration isolating plate 10 is the above-mentioned cork, these colored papers 13, photographs, paintings, etc. can be attached with pushpins or the like.

Here, the back structure of the speaker cabinet main body 1 will be explained.

For example, a circular opening is provided on the rear surface of the speaker cabinet main body 1, corresponding to the yoke bottom 4d of the woofer 4. A substantially plate-shaped heat dissipating member 14 made of metal such as the like is fitted. By providing such a heat dissipation member 14,
The heat dissipation effect of the heat emitted from the yoke bottom 4d of the woofer 4 to the outside of the speaker cabinet is improved, and deformation of the speaker cabinet body 1 formed of resin due to heat is prevented. .

FIG. 12 shows a modification of the heat dissipation member.

While the heat dissipation member 14 is approximately dish-shaped, the heat dissipation member 15 as a modified example has its peripheral edge bent in such a manner as to also surround the outer periphery of the yoke bottom portion 4d of the woofer 4, and the entire heat dissipation member 15 is approximately bowl-shaped. . By surrounding the outer periphery of the bottom portion of the yoke with the heat dissipating member in this manner, the heat dissipation effect is further enhanced.

As is clear from FIGS. 5 to 7, the rear surface of the speaker cabinet body 1 preferably includes the speaker cabinet body, the buffer plate 3, the woofer 4, the tweeter 5, the vibration isolating plate 10, etc. Four mounting portions 16 are arranged on the same circumference centered on the center of gravity of the speaker cabinet as a whole and at equal intervals. These mounting parts are for mounting the speaker cabinet on a wall or the like. However, the term "wall" as used herein refers not only to the internal and external walls of a normal house, but also to anything that is installed substantially perpendicular to the floor, such as a so-called screen. Each mounting portion 16 includes a recess 1i formed in two stages on the rear surface of the speaker cabinet body 1, and a recess 1i.
A pair of screws 16 are inserted into the recessed part of the first stage.
A mounting bracket 16b made of a steel plate or the like is fixed to the recessed portion of the first stage by a. The mounting bracket 16b has an opening 16c into which, for example, the head of a nail driven into the wall can be inserted. Furthermore, a pair of branch-shaped openings 16d are continuous to the opening 16c, which allow the entire speaker cabinet to move slightly in the direction of gravity after the head of a nail or the like is inserted into the opening. .
The branch-like openings 16d extend substantially at right angles to each other. The width of the branch opening 16d is smaller than the outer diameter of the head of the nail, etc., and therefore,
The entire speaker cabinet is secured by the head of the nail or the like.

What should be noted here is that the four mounting parts 16 are arranged at equal intervals on the same circumference, and by doing so, the speaker cabinet can be mounted on the wall vertically and horizontally. is now possible.

Furthermore, insulators 17 are attached to each of the four corners of the rear surface of the speaker cabinet body 1.

As described in detail above, in the wall-mounted resin speaker cabinet according to the present invention, the grill board, which is placed on the main surface of the buttful part in correspondence with the mounting position of the speaker, is fixed to the speaker cabinet together with the buttfull part. has been done. In other words, by fixing the relatively thin grill board to the cabinet body in this way, the grill board is prevented from warping due to changes in indoor temperature and humidity, which improves the aesthetic appearance of the interior. It is improving. Further, since the grill board and the buttful portion are fixed to the speaker cabinet body by the same fixing means, the number of parts and the number of installation steps for the fixing means are reduced.

Furthermore, in the wall-mounted resin speaker cabinet according to the present invention, an abutting protrusion is provided on the surface facing the buttful portion of the grill board and in the vicinity of the fixing means, so that the entire grill board is attached to the buttful portion. It is raised by the height of the corresponding contact protrusion. Therefore, vibration of the grill board is prevented and acoustic characteristics are improved.
