摘要:
A car-mounted sound device wherein the portability of a face plate is improved by not equipping it with a switch and wherein after the face plate has been removed, the device is not activated even if a switch on a device main body (10) is operated. A face plate (30) is detachably provided on the device main body (10), and there is equipped not switch but an operation key (320) on this face plate (30). Provided on the side of the device main body (10) are a microcomputer (40) for controlling sound signals and an input section (44) constituted by switches for inputting various types of information. An activating condition setting means (60) is provided for keeping the microcomputer (40) inactive even if a power source switch is operated after the face plate (30) has been removed. This activating condition setting means (60) has two switches (62, 64) that are turned on simultaneously when the face plate (30) is removed. When the two switches remain turned on, the microcomputer (40) is not activated, and the device main body (10) is not operated.

An audio device includes a playback device, such as a tape or CD player, and a radio. The audio device can be set to interrupt the playback device, upon receiving a signal, to output a special broadcast, such as a traffic information broadcast. When the playback device is interrupted during normal playback, playback is paused. Therefore, when the audio device switches back to the playback, the recording continues from the point at which playback was interrupted. When the playback device is interrupted during a special function, such as rewind or fast-foreword, the playback device is permitted to continue the special function to its completion while the broadcast is output.

An audio device integration system is provided. One or more after-market audio devices, such as a CD player (15), CD changer, MP3 player (30), satellite receiver (25), DAB receiver (25), or the like, is integrated for use with an existing OEM or after-market car stereo system, wherein control commands can be issued at the car stereo (10) and responsive data from the audio device (15, 25, 30) can be displayed on the stereo. Control commands generated at the car stereo (10) are received, processed, converted into a format recognizable by the audio device (15, 25, 30), and dispatched to the audio device (15, 25, 30) for execution. Information from the audio device (15, 25, 30), including track, disc, song, station, time, and other information, is received, processed, converted into a format recognizable by the car stereo, and dispatched to the car stereo (10) for display thereon.

A front panel operating apparatus of a vehicle display device such as a car audio can include a main chassis (710) for accommodating an audio device, a front panel (125) provided in the front side of the main chassis that opens or closes to allow access to a record medium for the audio device. The front panel can have a display part in the front side thereof. A supporting panel (120) can be pivotably coupled to a lower portion of the font panel to move a lower end of the front panel forward and backward by sliding from a prescribed location of the main chassis in forward and backward directions of the main chassis. A horizontal guide (136) can be formed at the supporting panel.

摘要:
A modular unit (930) having a telecommunications component (950), a switching circuit (940), and a headset link (970) is adapted for connection with a host electronic device (910). The headset link (970) of the modular unit communicates (930) with a module link (990) in a headset (980). The headset (980) also contains earphones or a speaker (982), a microphone (984), and a control panel (986) in electrical connection with the module link (990) of the headset (980). The speaker (982), microphone (984), and control panel (986) of the headset (980) communicate with the headset link (970) of the modular unit (930) through the module link (990) in the headset (980). The switching circuit (940) of the modular unit (930) controls whether the headset link (970) of the module (930) is in electrical connection with the telecommunications component (950) of the modular unit (930) or an electronic audio component (920) of the host electronic device (910).

A front panel operating apparatus and method of a vehicle display device such as a car audio can include a main chassis (100) for accommodating an audio device, a front panel (125) provided in the front side of the main chassis (100) that opens or closes to allow access to a record medium for the audio device (102,103). The front panel (125) can have a display part in the front side thereof. A supporting panel (118) can be hinge-coupled (140,141) to a lower side of the front panel (125) to move a lower end of the front panel (125) forward and backward by sliding from a prescribed location of the main chassis (100) in forward and backward directions of the main chassis. A vertical guide can be formed at the front side of the main chassis, and a protrusion formed on the front panel (125) can be inserted into the vertical guide for controllably moving an upper portion of the front panel (125) up and down.
摘要:
In a home audio visual network including a plurality of devices coupled via an IEEE 1394 bus, a system for accessing a media changer mechanism of a multi-item media player. The multi-item media player stores a plurality of media items and can play any of the plurality of media items. A media changer mechanism having a plurality of slots for storing the plurality of media items is included within the multi-item media player. A computer system is built into the multi-item media player. A software based media changer model executes on the computer system, and in turn, causes the computer system to implement a method of accessing the media changer mechanism. In so doing, the computer system interfaces with a plurality of devices coupled to the multi-item media player via an IEEE 1394 communications link of an IEEE 1394 based network and provides a standardized command set for the media changer mechanism. The media changer model provides a set of standardized commands that allow the plurality of devices on the network to access the media changer mechanism and access any of the plurality of media items stored therein.
