As described above, one end of the moving element 12421 has a first concave 12424, and one end of the hook element 12422 has a second concave 12425 relative to the first concave 12424. The second concave 12425 rotates relative to the first concave 12424 to become closed or open. The first side 12423 of the hook element 12422 has an arc edge 12423A and a first concave edge 12423B. The first concave edge 12423B and the arc edge 12423A are the connected and extended side edges. When the arc edge 12423A of the hook element 12422 abuts against the first guide member 1246, the first concave 12424 and the second concave 12425 are relatively closed; when the first concave edge 12423B of the hook element 12422 abuts against the first guide member 1246, the first concave 12424 and the second concave 12425 are relatively open.
Furthermore, the locking assembly 124 further includes a second guide member 1247. The second guide member 1247 extends through the lock housing 1241, and the second guide member 1247 locates within the lock pin channel 1240.

The moving element 12421 further has a moving hole 12426, and the second guide member 1247 locates within the moving hole 12426. The second guide member 1247 locates on the movement path of the second side 12427 of the hook element 12422. When the moving element 12421 moves in conjunction with the hook element 12422, the second guide member 1247 moves along the contour of the second side 12427 of the hook element 12422, causing the hook element 12422 to rotate relative to the moving element 12421.
As described above, the second side 12427 of the hook element 12422 has an inclined edge 12427A and a second concave edge 12427B. The second concave edge 12427B and the inclined edge 12427A are the connected and extended side edges. When the second concave edge 12427B of the hook element1 2422 abuts against the second guide member 1247, the first concave 12424 and the second concave 12425 are relatively closed; when the inclined edge 12427A of the hook element 12422 abuts against the second guide member 1247, the first concave 12424 and the second concave 12425 are relatively open.
In addition, the lock housing 1241 has an opening 12410 at one end of the housing adjacent to the first concave 12424 and the second concave 12425 (see
Conversely, to fix the speaker 11 to the base 12, the fixing assembly 111 of the speaker 11 is aligned with the locking assembly 124 of the base 12, and then the fixing assembly 111 of the speaker 11 is pressed into the locking assembly 124. Then the lock unit 1242 of the locking assembly 124 compresses the lock elastic element 1243, causing the fixed notch 12428 of the lock unit 1242 to align again with the fixed through hole 12401 of the lock housing 1241. The elastic restoring force of the lock pin elastic element 1245 drives the lock pin 1244 to be embedded within the fixed notch 12428, then the lock pin 1244 is engaged with the lock unit 1242. At the same time, the first concave 12424 of the moving element 12421 at one end of the lock unit 1242 and the second concave 12425 of the hook element 12422 will rotate relative to each other, causing the first concave 12424 and the second concave 12425 to be relatively closed. Consequently, it allows the stationary post 1112 of the fixing assembly 111 of the speaker 11 to be fixed within the locking assembly 124, thereby fixing the connection between the speaker 11 and the base 12.
In summary, the present application provides a speaker structure that includes a speaker and a base. The speaker is locked to the base. The base fixes or unlocks the speaker by means of a mutual linkage of a press assembly, a connecting assembly and a locking assembly. The locking assembly of the base is used to fix the speaker. The press assembly is used to moves in conjunction with the connecting assembly, and then the connecting assembly unlocks the speaker fixed by the locking assembly.
