Definitions
- the invention relates generally to sound reinforcement techniques.
- the invention relates to a sound system at least consisting of a first acoustic chamber equipped with at least one acute sound reproduction section, the acute sound section comprising at least one transducer and a guide for expanding sound. wave, the expansion guide having an inlet and an outlet respectively relatively close and relatively remote from the transducer, this expansion guide receiving at its input the sound waves emanating from the transducer and having, at least in projection in a first plane, a shape flaring from its entrance to its outlet to spread in a solid emission angle the sound waves emerging from this expansion guide.
- One of the major problems with the sound system lies in the difficulty of rendering clearly, particularly in a closed space such as a theater, the sounds typically in the range of 300 Hz to 20 kHz, and especially the most acute sounds in the range of 1300 Hz to 20 kHz.
- the acute sounds or average frequency have a relatively low wavelength
- these sounds are most likely to reflect and recombine by forming multiple interferences and sound delays that alter the quality of the sound reproduced.
- the invention which is in this context, aims to provide a sound system for a sound quality significantly higher than existing systems.
- the system of the invention is essentially characterized in that the expansion guide of the first enclosure comprises at least a first movable component movable by a movement carried out parallel to the first plane, said solid emitting angle thus having a value that can be adjusted by moving the first flap.
- movement carried out parallel to the foreground is meant for example a movement in a circular arc parallel to the first plane and thus producing a rotation of the first component about an axis at least substantially perpendicular to this first plane, or a movement in line segment parallel to the foreground and thus producing a translation of the first component relative to its initial position.
- the sound system of the invention may then comprise at least a second acoustic enclosure similar to the first and forming, at least with the first enclosure, a one-dimensional network of sound sources extending in a direction substantially transverse to the first plane, the second enclosure comprising at least a first mobile flap movable independently of the first movable flap of the first enclosure.
- second acoustic enclosure similar to the first is meant, in the present description, a second acoustic enclosure possibly strictly identical to the first enclosure but which, without necessarily being, has at least the characteristics which, over time, description, are explicitly attributed to the first speaker as it is described.
- direction substantially transverse to the foreground is meant, in the present description, a direction which, without necessarily being strictly perpendicular to the first plane, makes a significant angle with the latter, for example at least 70 degrees.
- the sound system thus defined forms a one-dimensional network of sound sources, that is to say a system universally known to those skilled in the art under its Anglo-Saxon name "Line Source Array”.
- the section of the acute sounds of each chamber advantageously comprises a waveguide connecting the transducer to the inlet of the expansion guide, this waveguide may have, opposite the inlet of the expansion guide, an output slit-shaped oriented in a direction substantially transverse to the foreground.
- the waveguide can be produced according to the teaching of patent EP 0 331 566 or its US equivalent, US 5 163 167.
- the expansion guide of each enclosure may also include a second movable component, also movable by a movement made parallel to the foreground, to change the value of the solid emission angle.
- the expansion guide of each enclosure is at least partially delimited by walls extending substantially transversely to the foreground and comprising two inlet walls extending from the entrance of this guide two exit walls extending to the outlet of this expansion guide, that the inlet walls form between them a relatively closed first angle, that the exit walls are respectively connected to the walls of the entering into respective connection areas and form between them a second relatively open angle, and that each movable flap is disposed in the solid emission angle at least partially inside the second angle, facing a wall of corresponding output, to selectively adopt a relatively close position or a position relatively remote from the corresponding output wall.
- Each enclosure is for example symmetrical with respect to a median plane perpendicular to the first plane, the two inlet walls of the expansion guide of this enclosure being symmetrical to each other with respect to this median plane, and the two output walls of the same expansion guide being equally symmetrical to each other with respect to this median plane.
- each flap forms a non-zero angle with the corresponding outlet wall and is movably mounted by translation parallel to the first plane, between a relatively low directivity position, in which this flap is relatively distant from the connection area of the corresponding outlet wall and in which the sound waves emerging from the expansion guide are guided by the wall of corresponding output, and a relatively high directivity position, in which this flap is relatively close to or in support of the zone of connection of the corresponding outlet wall, and in which the sound waves emerging from the expansion guide are guided by this component.
- Each flap may in this case have, in the connection zone, a leading edge adopting substantially the same orientation as the inlet wall to which the corresponding outlet wall is connected and resting on this input wall in the relatively high directivity position of this flap.
- the first angle is between 35 degrees and 55 degrees, preferably between 42 degrees and 48 degrees
- the second angle is between 100 degrees and 140 degrees, preferably between 115 degrees and 125 degrees
- each shutter forms with the median plane an angle of between 20 degrees and 40 degrees, preferably between 25 degrees and 35 degrees.
- the values of the aforementioned angles can only be strictly measured in the case where the shutters and the walls are flat, and to the extent that the shutters and the walls can very well, locally or globally, not be planes, it is useful to specify here that the values of the aforementioned angles are given by taking into account the general direction that each wall and each shutter adopts, such as this wall and this shutter are seen at the scale of the length of wave corresponding to an average frequency, for example of the order of 1300 Hz.
- each chamber comprises at least a first medium frequency sound reproducing section disposed against a first of the two input walls, to the outside of the solid emission angle and at least a first bass sound reproducing section disposed against a first of the two output walls, outside the solid emission angle.
- the invention relates to a sound system constituted by one or more loudspeakers such as E1 to E7.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 The most striking advantage of the invention is illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, in which the system of the invention is represented in the form of a one-dimensional network of sound sources (Line Source Array), such as LSAg or LSAd. , used for the sound of a space appearing in vertical section in FIG.
- Line Source Array such as LSAg or LSAd.
- Each of the speakers E1 to E7 of each of the networks LSAg and LSAd emits a beam of sound waves, such as SE1g to SE7g for the network LSAg (FIG. 1), or else such as SE1d and SE4d for the respective speakers E1 and E4 of the LSAd network ( Figure 2).
- each network can, as shown in Figure 1, be constituted by a slightly curved column formed by stacking speakers E1 to E7, the different sound beams SE1g SE7g having thus selectively emitted to the nearest listeners for the enclosure E1, and the farthest for the enclosure E7.
- the solid emission angle of the different beams such as SE1 to SE7 has the same divergence angle for all the beams, this angle of divergence being for example defined as the angle of divergence.
- the trace of each beam in the plane P substantially perpendicular to the stacking direction of the speakers E1 to E7.
- the need to give the beam SE1g an angle of divergence sufficient to sound the better the nearest audition area of the LSAg network leads to giving for example the SE7g beam an oversized divergence angle, leading to the appearance multiple sound delays of this beam by reflection on the partitions of the auditory space.
- the invention an effect of which is illustrated in FIG. 2, makes it possible to solve this problem by proposing speakers provided with an adjustable directivity.
- beams SE1g and SE1d for example, a relatively large angle of divergence in order to sound better the closest audition zone of the LSAg and LSAd networks
- the other beams for example beams SE4g and SE4d, a relatively weak angle of divergence to sound better at a hearing area further away from LSAg and LSAd networks by avoiding multiple reflections on the partitions of the auditory space, and correlatively concentrating the energy of the sound waves of these other beams, for example SE4g and SE4d, whose path is longer.

- the expansion guide 3 receives at its input 30 the sound waves emanating from the transducer 20 and transmitted by the waveguide 21.
- the guide 21 is for example made in accordance with patents EP 0 331 566 or US 5 163 167 now universally known to those skilled in the art, and has, opposite the inlet 30 of the expansion guide 3, and as output 210, a slot oriented in a direction substantially transverse to the plane P which is constituted in particular by the plane of Figures 3, 4A, 4B, and 7A to 7D.
