Vehicular microphone and vehicle
A vehicular microphone includes: at least one microphone sensor that detects sound; a board that includes a first surface and a second surface, the first surface being a surface where the microphone sensor is provided, the second surface being opposite to the first surface; a cover that includes a bottom surface and a side surface; and a connector that is electrically connectable to a cable of a vehicle, wherein, the cover is provided with at least one first hole that opens toward the bottom surface of the cover to collect the sound to be detected by the microphone sensor.
1 . A vehicular microphone, comprising:
at least one microphone sensor that detects sound;
a board that includes a first surface and a second surface, the first surface being a surface where the microphone sensor is placed, the second surface being opposite to the first surface;
a cover that includes a bottom surface and a side surface; and
a connector that is electrically connectable to a cable of a vehicle, wherein,
the cover is provided with at least one first hole that opens toward the bottom surface of the cover to collect the sound to be detected by the microphone sensor, and
the at least one first hole is provided to open toward both the bottom surface of the cover and the side surface of the cover.
2 . The vehicular microphone according to claim 1 , wherein the vehicular microphone includes a portion extending in a straight line at an oblique direction to the bottom surface of the cover in a path of sound reaching the microphone sensor from the at least one first hole.
3 . The vehicular microphone according to claim 1 , wherein,
the at least one microphone sensor includes a plurality of microphone sensors; and
the plurality of microphone sensors include a first microphone sensor and a second microphone sensor placed on the first surface of the board.
4 . The vehicular microphone according to claim 3 , wherein the vehicular microphone is provided with a single hole that is a path of sound reaching the first microphone sensor and the second microphone sensor from the at least one first hole.
5 . The vehicular microphone according to claim 3 , wherein,
the vehicular microphone is provided with a hole corresponding to the first microphone sensor, the hole being a path of sound reaching the first microphone sensor from the at least one first hole, and
the vehicular microphone is provided with a hole corresponding to the second microphone sensor, the hole being a path of sound reaching the second microphone sensor from the at least one first hole.
6 . A vehicular microphone, comprising:
at least one microphone sensor that detects sound;
a board that includes a first surface and a second surface, the first surface being a surface where the microphone sensor is placed, the second surface being opposite to the first surface;
a cover that includes a bottom surface and a side surface;
a connector that is electrically connectable to a cable of a vehicle; and
a holder that holds the board, wherein,
the cover is provided with at least one first hole that opens toward the bottom surface of the cover to collect the sound to be detected by the microphone sensor,
the holder includes a protrusion that protrudes on a side where the board is placed,
the protrusion of the holder is formed around a first opening through which the sound collected by the at least one first hole passes, and
the protrusion of the holder is pressed and deformed by pressure from the board when the board is held by the holder.
7 . The vehicular microphone according to claim 6 , further comprising a waterproof film between the protrusion of the holder and the board, the waterproof film being provided with a second hole through which the sound collected by the at least one first hole passes.
8 . The vehicular microphone according to claim 7 , wherein the holder is configured by an elastic body.
9 . The vehicular microphone according to claim 8 , wherein,
the board is further provided with a third hole that communicates with the second hole of the waterproof film, and
the microphone sensor is placed on the third hole of the board.
10 . The vehicular microphone according to claim 9 , wherein,
the connector includes a fixer that is fixed to an end of the cover, and
the microphone sensor, the board, the waterproof film, and the holder are accommodated by the cover and the connector.
11 . A vehicle, comprising the vehicular microphone according to claim 1 or claim 6 , wherein the vehicular microphone is placed so that the at least one first hole opens toward a lower side of a body of the vehicle.
12 . A vehicle, comprising the vehicular microphone according to claim 1 or claim 6 , wherein the vehicular microphone is placed so that the at least one first hole opens toward a lower side and a side surface of a body of the vehicle.
13 . A vehicle, comprising the vehicular microphone according to claim 1 or claim 6 , wherein the vehicular microphone is placed so that the bottom surface of the cover is placed perpendicular to ground.
