Abstract

A speaker box for accommodating a speaker, including an outlet port provided avoiding an area corresponding to a center portion of the speaker, in a first side surface section of the speaker box which is parallel to a center axis of the speaker, and an inlet port provided avoiding an area corresponding to the center portion of the speaker, in a second side surface section of the speaker box which is opposed to the first side surface section via the speaker.

Claims (27)

1. A speaker box for accommodating a speaker, comprising:

an outlet port provided avoiding an area corresponding to a center portion of the speaker, in a first side surface section of the speaker box which is parallel to a center axis of the speaker; and

an inlet port provided avoiding an area corresponding to the center portion of the speaker, in a second side surface section of the speaker box which is opposed to the first side surface section via the speaker,

wherein a partitioning member is formed in a plate shape and provided around an outer periphery of the speaker, on a line radially connecting the center portion of the speaker and the outlet port or a line radially connecting the center portion of the speaker and the inlet port.

2. The speaker box according to claim 1 , wherein the outlet port is provided at a position shifted from a normal axis of the first side surface section connecting the center portion of the speaker and the first side surface section, and

wherein the inlet port is provided at a position shifted from a normal axis of the second side surface section connecting the center portion of the speaker and the second side surface section.

3. The speaker box according to claim 1 , wherein the outlet port and the inlet port are provided opposing each other via the speaker.

4. The speaker box according to claim 2 , wherein the outlet port and the inlet port are provided opposing each other via the speaker.

5. The speaker box according to claim 1 , wherein the outlet port and the inlet port are each provided in a slit shape in a direction parallel to the center axis of the speaker.

6. The speaker box according to claim 2 , wherein the outlet port and the inlet port are each provided in a slit shape in a direction parallel to the center axis of the speaker.

7. The speaker box according to claim 3 , wherein the outlet port and the inlet port are each provided in a slit shape in a direction parallel to the center axis of the speaker.

8. The speaker box according to claim 4 , wherein the outlet port and the inlet port are each provided in a slit shape in a direction parallel to the center axis of the speaker.

9. The speaker box according to claim 1 , wherein the outlet port and the inlet port each have a plurality of holes arranged in a direction parallel to the center axis of the speaker.

10. The speaker box according to claim 2 , wherein the outlet port and the inlet port each have a plurality of holes arranged in a direction parallel to the center axis of the speaker.

11. The speaker box according to claim 3 , wherein the outlet port and the inlet port each have a plurality of holes arranged in a direction parallel to the center axis of the speaker.

12. The speaker box according to claim 4 , wherein the outlet port and the inlet port each have a plurality of holes arranged in a direction parallel to the center axis of the speaker.

13. The speaker box according to claim 1 , wherein the outlet port and the inlet port are each provided in a slit shape in a direction orthogonal to the center axis of the speaker or each have a plurality of holes arranged in the direction orthogonal to the center axis of the speaker.

14. The speaker box according to claim 2 , wherein the outlet port and the inlet port are each provided in a slit shape in a direction orthogonal to the center axis of the speaker or each have a plurality of holes arranged in the direction orthogonal to the center axis of the speaker.

15. The speaker box according to claim 3 , wherein the outlet port and the inlet port are each provided in a slit shape in a direction orthogonal to the center axis of the speaker or each have a plurality of holes arranged in the direction orthogonal to the center axis of the speaker.

16. The speaker box according to claim 4 , wherein the outlet port and the inlet port are each provided in a slit shape in a direction orthogonal to the center axis of the speaker or each have a plurality of holes arranged in the direction orthogonal to the center axis of the speaker.

17. The speaker box according to claim 1 , further comprising: a cooling fan for circulating air to the outlet port and the inlet port.

18. The speaker box according to claim 1 , wherein the speaker includes an electromagnet, a diaphragm and a cone, and

wherein a position of the center portion of the speaker coincides with a point of intersection of the diaphragm of the speaker and the center axis of the speaker.

19. The speaker box according to claim 1 , wherein two partitioning members are provided around an outer periphery of the speaker in substantially parallel with a tangent line of the outer periphery, on a line radially connecting the center portion of the speaker and the outlet port, and a line radially connecting the center portion of the speaker and the inlet port, respectively.

20. A projection device comprising:

the speaker box according to claim 1 ; and

a projection section which projects an image.
