Abstract

PURPOSE:To speed up an increase in sound volume and to facilitate a sound volume adjustment within a small volume range by turning on a switching element when a variable resistor is adjusted to below prescribed sound volume. CONSTITUTION:A resistance 3 is connected in series to the variable resistor 1 for sound volume control. The switching elemnt 4 is connected across the resistance 3. Further, a voltage detecting circuit 5 for detecting the level of a control voltage VC is provided between the resistor 1 and a sound amplifying circuit 2. Therefore, when the resistor 1 is adjusted to below prescribed sound volume and the voltage VC drops below a prescribed voltage VC', the element 4 is turned on. Thus, an increase in sound volume by an adjustment of the resistor 1 is speeded up.

When K is set in this way, the change in the control voltage vo (that is, the volume) applied to the audio amplifier circuit 2 with respect to the adjustment position of the variable terminal of the variable resistor 1 becomes as shown by the solid line in FIG. In this case, it is indicated by a broken line. As is clear here, the curve in the case of the solid line becomes gentler than that in the case of the broken line according to the adjustment of the variable resistor 1, making it easier to make delicate adjustments in a small volume range. Furthermore, since the switching transistor 4 is switched at the constant voltage Vc, the rise to the volume corresponding to the predetermined voltage V, is faster in the case of the solid line. Therefore, by setting this predetermined voltage vO· to a necessary low volume within the normal listening range, the above-mentioned characteristics can be obtained without causing any discomfort due to switching of the switching transistor 4. Furthermore, in this case, when the variable resistor 1 adjusts the voltage to a predetermined voltage vc.
c can be completely lowered to OK, the volume can be completely reduced to 0, and sound leakage can be eliminated.
