Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of a sound book according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

First, as illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, a sound book according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a power supply unit 10, a storage unit 20, and a membrane switch 32 at one side of the sound book. Inlay 30 installed in the control means 40, the volume control means 50, the earphone 60 is configured to include.

The power supply unit 10 is a lithium battery installed in one side of the sound book, for example, in the shape of any one of a square, a cylindrical, a pin, and a paper, and is discharged by removing the cover 12. The battery can be replaced.

The storage means 20 is a memory chip that stores voice information corresponding to the printed contents of the sound book as sound data, and the storage space is preferably set differently according to the contents of the book.

Here, the voice information may include, for example, a recording of a singer, a recommendation of a star, a collection of stories, a drama OST, a main character interview, a photo album sound effect, an entertainment field (record + book, an essay, etc.), a voice actor dubbing, various sound effects, Publications such as children's books using the music, Bible verses, pastoral sermons, hymns including hymns, professional lectures on cooking, health, etc., listening to learning examples, reading voice actors and poets, etc. , Professional books, language materials, poetry, etc.) and promotional fields (advertisements) that store trailers (advertisements) of books so that they can be heard without opening the book.

The inlay 30 is provided with a membrane switch 32 having at least one or more switch contacts as shown in FIG. 1.

The membrane switch 32 includes, for example, a lower circuit film 34 and an upper circuit film 35, and includes an insulating film 36 for preventing an electrical short. Here, the insulating film 36 and the lower and upper circuit films 34 and 35 are made of, for example, a polyester film.

An electrode circuit is printed on the lower circuit film 34, a contact circuit is printed on the upper circuit film 35, and a hole is formed at each position where the contact circuit of the upper circuit film 45 is located on the insulating film 36. 37) is formed.

For example, when a dome-shaped button formed on the upper circuit layer 35 is pressed, pressure is applied to the upper circuit layer 35 so that a contact circuit of the upper circuit layer 35 is formed on the insulating layer 36. The switch input is recognized by being electrically connected to the electrode circuit of the lower circuit film 34 through the through hole 37.

The control means 40 controls the power supply means 10 according to whether the membrane switch 32 installed in the inlay 30 is selected, and outputs sound data stored in the storage means 20. Here, the control means 40 is provided with an amplifier (not shown) for amplifying sound data output from the storage means 20.

The volume control means 50 is to variably adjust the output level of the output sound data, the earphone 60, the earphone terminal 62 is inserted into the earphone connector 70 formed on one side of the sound book is formed The sound data output from the storage means 20 is converted into a voice signal and output.

On the other hand, the sound book according to another embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figures 3 to 6, the storage means 120, the membrane inlay 130 is installed inside the inlay 130, the control means 140 The earphone port 160 is provided with a USB port 180 and a USB terminal 161.

The storage means 120 is a memory chip for storing the voice information corresponding to the contents of the book as sound data, the inlay 130, at least one or as shown in (a), (b) shown in FIG. Membrane switches 132 having two or more switch contacts are installed.

Here, the inlay 130 in which the membrane switch 132 is installed is installed, for example, on the contents page of the book or on the guide page where the contents of the book are changed.

The control means 140 controls the sound data stored in the storage means 120 to be output through the USB port 180 according to whether the membrane switches 132 installed in the inlay 130 are selected.

The earphone 160 is, for example, a USB terminal 161, which is drawn out and drawn in a sliding manner, is installed at one end, and the USB port 180 is positioned at a predetermined distance from the USB terminal 161. Power supply for supplying power to the sound book through the volume control means for adjusting the output level of the sound data output through the 162, the earphone switch 163 for controlling the sound book on / off, the USB port 180 Means 100 are configured.

Here, the power supply means 100 is, for example, a lithium battery having a shape of any one of a square, a cylindrical, a pin, and a paper, and replaces a discharged battery by removing an earphone cover (not shown). In addition, the power supply unit 100 receives external power by connecting a USB terminal 161 installed at one end of the earphone 160 with a USB port installed in an external device such as a computer. It is also possible to use a rechargeable secondary battery.

When the user presses the membrane switch 132 installed on the inlay 130 of the sound book or the earphone switch 163, the voice information corresponding to the contents of the book is output from the storage means 120 and the The earphone 160 is converted into a voice signal and output.

At this time, the volume of the voice signal output to the earphone 160 can be adjusted by varying the volume adjusting means 162, and when the earphone switch 163 is pressed again, the output voice information is turned off.

When the user starts reading again while reading a portion of the sound book, for example, the membrane switch 132 installed in the contents page inlay 130 of the book or the guide page inlay 130 is changed. When pressed, voice information such as effect sounds, music, narration, etc. of the currently unfolded page is output from the storage means 120 and converted into voice signals through the earphone 160.

When the power supply means 100 installed in the earphone 160 is, for example, a lithium battery, the earphone cover (not shown) is removed to replace the lithium battery, and the power supply means 100 is a secondary battery. By inserting the USB terminal 161 into an external device such as a computer, it is used after charging for a predetermined time.

As described above, the sound book of the present invention can be carried by the user anytime, anywhere, and the voice information corresponding to the contents of the book while viewing the contents of the book includes, for example, a singer's record, a star's recommendation music, a story collection, Drama OST, main character interview, photo album sound effects, voice actor dubbing, various sound effects, various children's books using music, Bible verses, pastor's sermons, hymns, hymns, etc. By hearing the trailer of the book (advertisement), etc., you can receive the contents of the book more effectively.

As mentioned above, preferred embodiments of the present invention described above are disclosed for the purpose of illustration, and those skilled in the art can improve other various embodiments within the spirit and technical scope of the present invention disclosed in the appended claims below.
