Audio system for a vehicle
A roof of a vehicle includes a panel, and at least one audio device selected from the loudspeakers and the actuators, and when the at least one audio device is an actuator, it is located on the panel, the panel being capable of vibrating.
1. A roof of a vehicle, comprising:
a panel, and
a plurality of audio devices, each audio device of the plurality of audio devices being either a loudspeaker or an actuator, the actuator being located on the panel, the panel being a glazing and capable of vibrating,
wherein the panel has a quadrilateral shape with a first edge, a second edge, a third edge and a fourth edge, which are consecutive, the plurality of audio devices comprising:
a first audio device positioned on the panel, in a peripheral first zone adjacent to the first edge of the panel, said first zone having a width along a direction orthogonal to the first edge less than or equal to 50 cm, and
a second audio device positioned on the panel, in a peripheral second zone adjacent to the third edge of the panel, said second zone having a width along a direction orthogonal to the third edge less than or equal to 50 cm, and
wherein the roof further comprises at least one actuator that, when actuated, generates low frequencies, the at least one actuator being located on the panel, in a peripheral third zone adjacent to the second edge of the panel, said third zone having a width along a direction orthogonal to the second edge less than or equal to 50 cm.
2. The roof according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first and second audio devices is configured to generate high and/or medium frequencies.
3. The roof according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of audio devices comprise at least one loudspeaker or actuator configured to generate high frequencies.
4. The roof according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of audio devices comprise
a loudspeaker or an actuator configured to generate high frequencies positioned on the panel, in a peripheral zone adjacent to the fourth edge of the panel.
5. The roof according to claim 1 , wherein the glazing comprises a glass sheet.
6. The roof according to claim 5 , wherein the glass sheet is made of organic or mineral glass.
7. The roof according to claim 1 , wherein the glazing comprises a laminated glass sheet comprising at least two glass sheets between which at least one interlayer film of viscoelastic plastic nature is inserted, the interlayer filmbeing made of polyvinyl butyral or ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.
8. The roof according to claim 1 , comprising a total number of loudspeakers and actuators ranging from 1 to 20.
9. The roof according to claim 1 , wherein a surface that is vibrated by the at least one actuator, which, when actuated, generates low frequencies, comprises the glazing.
10. A vehicle comprising a roof, said roof including:
a panel, and
a plurality of audio devices, each audio device of the plurality of audio devices being either a loudspeaker or an actuator, the actuator being located on the panel, the panel being a glazing and capable of vibrating,
wherein the panel has a quadrilateral shape with a first edge, a second edge, a third edge and a fourth edge, which are consecutive, the plurality of audio devices comprising:
a first audio device positioned on the panel, in a peripheral first zone adjacent to the first edge of the panel, said first zone having a width along a direction orthogonal to the first edge less than or equal to 50 cm, and
a second audio device positioned on the panel, in a peripheral second zone adjacent to the third edge of the panel, said second zone having a width along a direction orthogonal to the third edge less than or equal to 50 cm, and
wherein the roof further includes at least one actuator that, when actuated, generates low frequencies, the at least one actuator being located on the panel, in a peripheral third zone adjacent to the second edge of the panel, said third zone having a width along a direction orthogonal to the second edge less than or equal to 50 cm.
11. The vehicle according to claim 10 , comprising a front windshield and/or a rear window and comprising at least one actuator configured to generate low frequencies positioned in the front windshield and/or in the rear window.
12. The vehicle according to claim 10 , comprising a front windshield and comprising at least one loudspeaker or actuator configured to generate high frequencies positioned in the front windshield.
13. The vehicle according to claim 10 , comprising at least one pillar, and comprising at least one audio device selected from the loudspeakers and the actuators located in the at least one pillar.
14. The vehicle according to claim 10 , comprising at least one door and/or a dashboard and/or a front windshield and/or a rear window, and comprising at least one audio device selected from the loudspeakers and the actuators positioned in the at least one door and/or in the dashboard and/or in the front windshield and/or in the rear window.
15. The vehicle according to claim 10 , which is a motor vehicle.
16. The vehicle according to claim 10 , wherein a surface that is vibrated by the at least one actuator, which, when actuated, generates low frequencies, comprises the glazing.
