Abstract

A method is provided according to an example embodiment of the present invention for providing a porous cover structure for a mobile device for use with integrated audio components. Sound inlets and / or outlets in a mobile device cover may be replaced by one or more areas of microholes which are small enough to be invisible or almost invisible to the naked eye. The porous region may be located and dimensioned in a way that provides the best compromise between industrial design, mechanics, and audio requirements. Further, the audio component mechanics beneath the cover may be modified to take additional advantage of the porous cover structure, and the porous structure may also be used as an improved dust and liquid protection feature. A corresponding housing component and apparatus are also provided.

Description

technical field

[0001] Example embodiments of the present invention generally relate to acoustic and / or mechanical integration of audio components in mobile devices. Background technique

[0002] Mobile devices typically include audio components (eg, speakers, microphones) integrated into the device. The integration of such audio components requires consideration of the mechanical and acoustic properties of the components, which may sometimes conflict with the desired industrial design for mobile devices. One of the most visible considerations concerns the sound outlet and / or inlet of the mobile device. Such a sound outlet design is important because the sound outlet has to be designed in such a way that, taking into account all acoustic requirements, it should still have a suitable visual effect so that the overall appearance of the mobile device is not negatively affected. A traditional approach would be to create a small number of fairly large holes (eg, about 1 mm in d...
