Abstract
A worksite audio device includes a housing including a front side and a rear side, a speaker disposed on the front side of the housing, an audio circuit coupled to the speaker that provides an audio signal to the speaker, and an antenna assembly coupled to the housing and configured to deliver a radio signal to the audio circuit. The speaker is configured to output audio. The antenna assembly is rotatable with respect to the housing about a first axis, a second axis perpendicular to the first axis, and a third axis perpendicular to the second axis. A handle is coupled to the housing and cooperates with the housing to define a recess. A first device mount is disposed in the recess and configured to support an electronic device couplable to the audio circuit.
Claims19
A worksite audio device comprising:
- a housing including a front side, a rear side, a pair of sidewalls, a top side, and a bottom side;
- a speaker disposed on the front side of the housing, wherein the speaker is configured to output audio;
- an audio circuit coupled to the speaker and configured to provide an audio signal to the speaker;
- a handle coupled to the housing, wherein the handle and the housing cooperate to define a recess, wherein the recess is defined between the top side and the first of the pair of sidewalls, wherein the recess is formed as a cutout from the first of the pair of sidewalls and includes a plurality of slanted surfaces;
- and
- wherein the recess is configured to receive and support an electronic device.
A worksite audio device comprising:
- a housing including a front side and a rear side;
- a speaker disposed on the front side of the housing, wherein the speaker is configured to output audio;
- an audio circuit coupled to the speaker and configured to provide an audio signal to the speaker;
- and
- an antenna assembly coupled to the housing and configured to deliver a radio signal to the audio circuit, the antenna assembly including
- a first member rotatably coupled to the housing and rotatable about a first axis,
- a second member coupled to the first member, wherein the second member is configured to pivot relative to the first member about a second axis, perpendicular to the first axis, and
- a third member coupled to the second member, wherein the third member is configured to pivot relative to the second member about a third axis, wherein the third axis is perpendicular to the second axis.
