1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an improved structure for quick-assembly cabinet, especially referring to the cabinet that requires less locking-motions than conventional cabinets and has no screws on the front side of loudspeaker as opposed to the conventional cabinets and, therefore, can be produced more efficiently and the appearance looks more attractive than conventional cabinets.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Cabinet is the indispensable output device for the stereo assembly. The conventional cabinet is made up of wooden plates and is provided with a loudspeaker holder on the front to accommodate the loudspeaker; and the stand is fixed in the cabinet with four screws penetrating through four corners of the stand. Presently, cabinets are made up of either plastic or metal. However, the assembly method remains unchanged and, consequently, following disadvantages are apparent:
As a result of design improvement, now a number of cabinets and stands are provided with buckles or zig-zag edges to facilitate assembly. However, the structure is too complicated and the products have to be manufactured precisely. The size of loudspeaker holder and the shape of stand are apt to change and the cabinet and loudspeaker may not be assembled properly if different materials are used or the thickness of materials is changed, which affects the production efficiency.
The purpose of present invention is to reduce the number of screws needed by the cabinet and to eliminate screws from the front side of loudspeaker, thereby improving the structure of cabinet, making the cabinet look attractive, and upgrading the production efficiency.
The present invention comprises a cabinet with a loudspeaker provided thereon. To serve the foregoing purpose, the first side of cabinet is provided with a loudspeaker holder and the second side opposite to the loudspeaker holder is provided with a screw hole. Loudspeaker stand is provided with an expansion plate larger than the foregoing loudspeaker holder; and the back of magnetic loop is provided with a pair of screw holes that allow screw to penetrate from behind the box to fix the loudspeaker. The loudspeaker holder and loudspeaker stand are provided with joints and openings, respectively. Thus the sound box can be assembled faster and no screws are needed on the front side of loudspeaker and the production efficiency is, therefore, significantly improved.
Other advantages of the invention will be evident from the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings that illustrate the preferred embodiment of the invention.
Referring to
a cabinet 1 is provided with a loudspeaker holder 12 on the first side 11; and a screw hole 16 is provided on the second side 15 opposite to loudspeaker holder 12;
a stand 21 of loudspeaker 2 is provided with an expansion plate 22 larger than the foregoing loudspeaker holder 12; a pair of screw holes 26 are provided on the back of magnetic loop 25; and
the loudspeaker holder 12 and loudspeaker stand 21 are provided with joints 23 and openings 13, respectively.
When in use; first side 11 and the second side 15 of cabinet 1 are placed in an even position. The first side 11 is larger than the second side 15; and both ends are provided in arc shape. The first side 11 is provided with a large loudspeaker holder and a small loudspeaker holder 12; the foregoing opening 13 is provided above the loudspeaker 12; the joint 23 of loudspeaker 2 is placed on both stand 21 and edge 22; and a round-protuberant seat 27 is provided on the center of magnetic loop 25 behind the loudspeaker 2 to accommodate the screw hole 26.
As shown by
The loudspeaker 2 is fixed without incurring deflection when join 23 and the opening 13 are assembled to fix on the right position. Only one screw 3 is needed for assembling each loudspeaker 2. Therefore, production efficiency is upgraded. Without screw on the front, the loudspeaker 2 looks more attractive than conventional cabinets. The cabinet can be designed more freely and flexibly; and users can decide whether to cover the cabinet with a net 4 or not.
The present invention has been described in conjunction with the preferred embodiment to those skilled in the art, modification may be made in the invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the subject invention as set forth in the claims below.
