  • Patent number: 12041413
    Abstract: Acoustic loudspeaker (10) comprising a cabinet (12) extending in a direction (L), and a speaker (14) defining an acoustic axis (X). The cabinet defines a first axis (V1) perpendicular to the direction, and a second axis (V2) perpendicular to the direction and to the first axis. The acoustic loudspeaker is intended to be used in a first configuration, wherein the first axis is essentially vertical, and a second configuration, wherein the second axis is essentially vertical. The speaker is movable relative to the cabinet around an axis of rotation (D) between a first position, wherein the acoustic axis defines with the second axis a first angle less than 30°, and a second position, in which the acoustic axis defines with the first axis (V1) a second angle less than 30°. The axis of rotation makes two angles between 40° and 50° with the first axis and the second axis.

  • Publication number: 20240230598
    Abstract: A method and device for detecting and locating a fault of a housing comprising: arranging at least two loudspeakers and at least two microphones therein; for each pairing of loudspeaker and microphone and a housing with no faults: measuring a reference frequency response of the sound transmission from the loudspeaker to the microphone; for each pairing and a housing with faults: measuring a present frequency response of the sound transmission; for each pairing: determining a difference frequency response as the difference between the present frequency response and the reference frequency response; for each possible combination of two pairings: calculating a correlation measure between the difference frequency responses of the pairings; and determining the combination with the highest correlation measure and, if the same loud-speaker or the same microphone appears in the pairings of this combination, then locating the fault as proximate to this loudspeaker or microphone.

  • Patent number: 10869137
    Abstract: An acoustic speaker (1) including: a metal armature (7), a plastic shell (9) fastened on the armature, the shell defining at least two openings (11A, 11B), and at these two loudspeakers (13A, 13B) arranged head to tail along a transverse axis (T), the two loudspeakers respectively extending through the two openings. The shell is in one piece, and the shell and an outer part (19) of the armature are suitable for nesting in one another along a longitudinal axis (L), the outer part and the shell at least partially defining an inner volume (23) of the acoustic speaker.

  • Patent number: 10834488
    Abstract: An acoustic speaker (1), comprising: a metal frame (3), a plastic shell (5) fastened on the frame, the shell defining at least two openings (7A, 7B), at these two loudspeakers (9A, 9B) arranged back-to-back along a transverse axis (T), the two loudspeakers respectively extending through the two openings. The frame comprises an inner part (21) located transversely between the two loudspeakers and on which the two loudspeakers are fastened.
