DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0023] The above and other objects, features and advantages of this disclosure will become apparent from the following detailed description taken with the accompanying drawings.

[0024] With reference to FIG. 1 for an exploded view of an assembled record player 1 in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the self-assembled record player 1 comprises a box 11, a record player 12, at least one loudspeaker 13 and a circuit board 14. In this preferred embodiment, there are plural loudspeakers 13. The box 11 is made of a paper material and has a cover 111 and a base 112, and the cover 111 is covered onto the base 112, and a accommodating space 113 is defined between the cover 111 and the base 112, and the record player 12, the loudspeakers 13 and the circuit board 14 are contained in the accommodating space 113. With the storage provided by the accommodating space 113, an unassembled record player may be transported conveniently without worrying about the exposed components being hit or damaged. In this preferred embodiment, the box 11 has a handle 15 provided for users to access and move the box 11 easily.

[0025] With reference to FIGS. 2 to 6 for schematic views of a preferred embodiment before being assembled, during different assembling steps, and after being assembled respectively, if a user wants to use the record player 1, the user will need to assemble the components of the record player 1 contained in a box package as shown in FIG. 2 into a player as shown in FIG. 2. After the assembling, the user can put a vinyl record on the record player 12 for playing the record. In the assembling process, the cover 111 and the base 112 are separated, and an accommodating hole 114 is formed on the cover 111 as shown in FIG. 3, wherein the accommodating hole 114 is configured to be corresponsive to the record player 12. In this preferred embodiment, the user may cut the accommodating hole 114 from the cover 111 according to a first cutting line 1141 in the shape of the accommodating hole 114.

[0026] After the accommodating hole 114 is cut and formed, the record player 12 of this preferred embodiment is contained in the accommodating space 113 by using a fastener 115. To increase the space for containing internal components in the box 1 and prevent the record player 12 from being hit by the loudspeakers 13 or the circuit board 14 during transportation, the base comes with a second cutting line 1161 and an extension 116. During the assembling process, the fastener 115 together with the record player 12 are removed from the accommodating space 113, and users may cut and remove an extension 116 along a second cutting line 1161 of the base 112 as shown in FIG. 4 to reduce the total volume of the assembled record player 1.

[0027] After the extension 116 is removed, the user takes the record player 12 away from the fastener 115 and re-installs and fixes the record player 12 to the accommodating hole 114, the loudspeaker 13 and the circuit board 14 are locked to the base 112 by screws as shown in FIG. 5. Finally, the circuit board 14 is electrically coupled to the record player 12 and the loudspeaker 13, and then the cover 111 having the record player 12 is covered onto the base 112 to assemble and form the record player 1 as shown in FIG. 6. Wherein, the extension 116 is removed to reduce the volume of the assembled record player 12, but users may select not to remove the extension 116, so as to increase the resonance space for the loudspeakers 13 and improve the sound playing effect.

[0028] In the present invention, the components are contained in the box 11, so that the box 11 has the packaging and containing effects. Since it is not necessary to take most components out from the accommodating space 113, therefore users need not to worry about forgetting or missing the components after they are taken out from the box 11. After the assembling process is completed, the box 11 is changed back into a resonance box of the loudspeaker 13 to provide a better sound effect for the sound outputted from the loudspeaker 13 through resonance. Therefore the box 11 has different functions in different situations. In the meantime, the surface of the box 11 is cut, and the components are assembled, the users may enjoy the fun of DIY. In addition, the present invention allows users to keep the box 11 (which serves as a package box) and provides a new function to the box, and the box 11 is made of paper which is more eco-friendly, and patterns may be formed on the surface of the box 11 as well.

[0029] With reference to FIG. 7 for the second schematic view of a preferred embodiment of the present invention after being assembled and FIG. 1, the circuit board 14 of this preferred embodiment has a power receiving jack 141, an audio input jack 142 and an audio output jack 143, and a surface of the base 112 further has a third cutting line 1171 for cutting and forming a hole 117, and the users may form the hole 117 along the third cutting line 1171 while installing the circuit board 14. When the circuit board 14 is installed, the power receiving jack 141, the audio input jack 142 and the audio output jack 143 are configured to be corresponsive to the hole 117. Each jack has a different function, and the power receiving jack 141 is provided for obtaining a power supply for the record player 1, wherein the power receiving jack 141 is a USB jack, and the audio input jack 142 is provided for playing an external audio from the loudspeaker 13, and the audio output jack 143 is provided for outputting music played by the record player 12 to other players through the audio output jack 143. Therefore, the present invention has other functions in addition to the function of playing music of a vinyl record.
