Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, in the structure of Patent Document 1, a compact structure is provided, however, the speaker and the microphone are close to each other, and the volume of the surround sound from the speaker to the microphone is large
On the other hand, in the structure of Patent Document 2, the echo canceller function suppresses the surround sound, and the elastic body suppresses the sound coupling inside the cabinet, however, the speaker and the microphone are still close to each other to form the compact structure in Patent Document 1
For this reason, there is still the problem that the sound emitted from the speaker tends to surround the microphone and imposes a heavy processing burden on the echo canceller function

Abstract

It is possible to provide a sound emission and collection device having a compact configuration and capable of suppressing sound coming from a speaker to a microphone and improving the S / N ratio. In the sound emission and collection device, a plurality of speakers (11) have a sound emission surface arranged at the side surface of a case (1) so that a sound can be emitted in all the circumferential direction of the sound emission and collection device. Each of the microphones (12) is arranged with the sound collection direction set in the center direction of the case (1). The microphone (12) and the speaker (11) have directivities opposing to each other. Accordingly, it is possible to minimize the sound coming from the speaker (11) to the microphone (12). Moreover, since the speaker (11) and the microphone (12) are arranged on coaxial circumferences, it is possible to obtain a compact configuration.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a sound emitting and collecting device which generally includes a speaker and a microphone, and more particularly to a sound emitting and collecting device having a compact structure and capable of suppressing surround sound from the speaker to the microphone. [0002] This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2005-364617 filed on December 19, 2005 and Japanese Patent Application No. 2005-368052 filed on December 21, 2005, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Background technique [0003] A teleconference apparatus, which integrally includes a speaker and a microphone, has been released as an audio communication system for performing an audio conference (teleconference) at a remote location. The audio conferencing device transmits the sound signal collected by the microphone to the connection terminal, and emits the sound signal received from the connection terminal...
