Foldable speakers
A foldable speaker system, including an elongated base member having a first end and a second end; a first speaker member having a first pivoting end and being pivotally connected to the first end of the base member, wherein the first speaker member is pivotally movable between a first closed position co-linear with the base member and a second vertical position; and a second speaker member having a second pivoting end and being pivotally connected to the second end of the base member, wherein the second speaker member is pivotally movable between a first closed position co-linear with the base member and a second vertical position. The first and second speaker members in their first closed positions, respectively, substantially overlap the base member, so that the non-pivoting second ends of the first and second speakers are adjacent to each other. The first and second speaker members in the second vertical positions, respectively, are unfolded and are vertically arranged and perpendicular to the base member. The foldable speaker system also includes a speaker stand pivotally connected to the base member so that the speaker stand is pivotally movable between a first position wherein the speaker stand is co-linear with the base member, and a second position wherein the speaker stand is in an unfolded and supporting position to support the base member and the first and second speaker-members in the unfolded and vertical position.
1. A foldable speaker system, comprising:
a) an elongated base member having a first end and a second end;
b) a first speaker member having a pivoting first end and a non-pivoting second end, said pivoting first end of said first speaker member being pivotally connected to said first end of said base member, wherein said pivoting first end of said first speaker member is pivotally movable between a closed first position co-linear with said base member and an opened and unfolded second position perpendicular to said base member;
c) a second speaker member having a pivoting second end and a non-pivoting second end, said pivoting second end of said second speaker member being pivotally connected to said second end of said base member, wherein said pivoting second end of said second speaker member is pivotally movable between a closed first position co-linear with said base member and an opened and unfolded second position perpendicular to said base member;
d) said first and second speaker members in said closed first positions, respectively, substantially overlap said base member, so that said non-pivoting second ends of said first and second speaker members are adjacent to each other, and wherein said first and second speaker members, in said opened and unfolded second positions, respectively, are vertically arranged and perpendicular to said base member; and
e) a speaker stand pivotally connected to said base member so that said speaker stand is pivotally movable between a first position wherein said speaker stand is co-linear with said base member, and a second position wherein said speaker stand is in an unfolded and supporting position to support said base member and said first and second speaker members in said unfolded and supporting position.
2. A foldable speaker system in accordance with claim 1 , wherein said base member includes a front wall, a rear wall, a top wall, a bottom wall and side walls.
3. A foldable speaker system in accordance with claim 2 , wherein said speaker stand is pivotally connected to each of said side walls of said base member.
4. A foldable speaker system in accordance with claim 2 , wherein each of said first and second speaker members are pivotally connected to said opposing first and second ends, respectively, of said front wall of said base member.
5. A foldable speaker system in accordance with claim 2 , wherein said first speaker member rotatably moves in a counter-clockwise rotation and in a 90° arc angle alpha (α) from a closed horizontal position to an open unfolded vertical position relative to said front wall of said base member.
6. A foldable speaker system in accordance with claim 2 , wherein said second speaker member rotatably moves in a clockwise rotation and in a 90° arc angle beta (β) from a closed horizontal position to an open unfolded vertical position relative to said front wall of said base member.
7. A foldable speaker system in accordance with claim 2 , wherein said speaker stand pivotally rotates in a clockwise rotation and in a 90° arc angle gamma (γ) from said first position to said second position relative to said rear wall of said base member for positioning said base member on a level surface.
8. A foldable speaker system in accordance with claim 1 , wherein said base member is substantially rectangularly-shaped.
9. A foldable speaker system in accordance with claim 1 , wherein said base member is substantially ovally-shaped.
10. A foldable speaker system in accordance with claim 1 , wherein one of said first or second ends of said base member has a curved end.
11. A foldable speaker system in accordance with claim 1 , wherein each of said first and second speaker members include a front wall, a rear wall, a top wall, a bottom wall and side walls.
12. A foldable speaker system in accordance with claim 11 , wherein one of said side walls has a curved end and said other side wall has a straight-edged end.
13. A foldable speaker system in accordance with claim 11 , wherein said front wall of each of said first and second speaker members includes a pair of spaced-apart and aligned speaker elements for outputting sound by said speaker elements.
14. A foldable speaker system in accordance with claim 1 , wherein each of said first and second speaker members are substantially rectangularly-shaped.
15. A foldable speaker system in accordance with claim 1 , wherein each of said first and second speaker members are substantially ovally-shaped.
16. A foldable speaker system in accordance with claim 1 , wherein said speaker stand is made from durable and rigid plastics or made from light-weight metal of aluminum or stainless steel.
