[0075] Throughout the drawings and detailed description, unless otherwise described, the same reference numerals should be understood to refer to the same elements, features, and structures. For clarity, illustration, and / or convenience, the sizes, lengths, and thicknesses of layers, regions, and elements and their descriptions may be exaggerated. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0076] Reference is now made in detail to various aspects of the present disclosure, examples of which may be illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following description, when a detailed description of a known method, function, structure, or configuration may unnecessarily obscure various aspects of the present disclosure, a detailed description of such known function or configuration may be omitted for the sake of brevity. In addition, repeated descriptions may be omitted for the sake of brevity. The described progression of processing steps and / or operations is a non-limiting example.

[0077] The order of steps and / or operations is not limited to the order set forth herein, and may be changed to occur in an order different from that described herein, except for steps and / or operations that must occur in a particular order. In one or more examples, two operations in succession may be performed substantially simultaneously, or the two operations may be performed in a reverse order or in a different order depending on the functions or operations involved.

[0078] Unless otherwise stated, even if the same reference numerals are shown in different figures, they may refer to the same elements throughout. Unless otherwise stated, the same reference numerals may be used to refer to the same or substantially the same elements throughout the specification and the drawings. In one or more aspects, unless otherwise stated, the same elements (or elements with the same names) in different figures may have the same or substantially the same functions and properties. The names of the various elements used in the following description are selected for convenience only and may therefore differ from the names used in the actual product.

[0079] By referring to the various aspects described in the accompanying drawings, the advantages and features of the present disclosure and the implementation methods thereof are explained. However, the present disclosure can be embodied in different forms and should not be construed as being limited to the example aspects set forth herein. On the contrary, these example aspects are examples and are provided so that the present disclosure can be thorough and complete, to help those skilled in the art understand the inventive concept, without limiting the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0080] The shapes, dimensions (e.g., size, length, width, height, thickness, position, radius, diameter, and area), proportions, ratios, angles, numbers, number of elements, etc. disclosed herein, including those shown in the drawings, are merely examples, and therefore, the disclosure is not limited to the details shown. However, it should be noted that the relative sizes of the components shown in the drawings are part of the disclosure.

[0081] When terms such as "including", "having", "comprising", "containing", "consisting of", "made of", "formed of", "composed of", etc. are used with respect to one or more elements (e.g., layers, films, regions, parts, sections, members, parts, regions, areas, parts, steps, operations, etc.), one or more other elements may be added unless terms such as "only" are used. The terms used in the present disclosure are only used to describe example aspects and are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, terms in the singular may include plural forms.

[0082] Unless otherwise stated, the word "exemplary" is used to mean serving as an example or illustration. An embodiment is an example embodiment. An aspect is an example aspect. In one or more implementations, "embodiment," "aspect," "example," etc. should not be construed as being superior or preferred over other implementations. Unless otherwise stated, aspects, examples, example aspects, etc. may refer to one or more aspects, one or more examples, one or more example aspects, etc. In addition, the term "may" encompasses all meanings of the term "can."

[0083] In one or more aspects, unless otherwise expressly stated, an element, feature, or corresponding information (e.g., level, range, dimension, size, etc.) is interpreted as including an error or tolerance range, even if no explicit description of such error or tolerance range is provided. The error or tolerance range may be caused by various factors (e.g., process factors, internal or external influences, noise, etc.). When interpreting a numerical value, unless otherwise expressly stated, the value is interpreted as including an error range.

[0084] When describing a positional relationship, when describing the positional relationship between two components (e.g., layers, films, regions, components, sections, etc.) using, for example, “on…”, “over…”, “on top of…”, “over…”, “under…”, “above”, “below…”, “near”, “nearby”, “near…”, “at the side or on…”, etc., one or more other components may be located between the two components unless more restrictive terms such as “immediately adjacent to”, “directly” or “close to” are used. For example, when a structure is described as being relative to another structure as follows: When referring to the positions: "on", "above", "on the top of", "above", "below", "above", "below", "below", "near", "close", "adjacent", "beside", "near", "to the side or on", etc., the description should be interpreted to include the situation where the structures are in contact with each other and the situation where one or more additional structures are disposed or inserted therebetween. In addition, the terms "front", "back", "back", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "downward", "upward", "upper", "lower", "up", "down", "column", "row", "vertical", "horizontal", etc. refer to any reference system.

[0085] Spatially relative terms such as "below," "below," "lower," "above," "upper," etc. may be used to describe the correlation between various elements (e.g., layers, films, regions, components, sections, etc.) as shown. Spatially relative terms should be understood as terms that include different orientations of elements in use or operation in addition to the orientations depicted in the drawings. For example, if the elements shown in the drawings are flipped, elements described as being "below" or "below" other elements will be oriented "above" the other elements. Thus, the term "below," which is an example term, may include all directions of "above" and "below." Similarly, the exemplary terms "above" or "on" may include both directions of "above" and "below."

[0086] When describing a temporal relationship, when the temporal order is described as, for example, "after", "subsequently", "next", "before", "previously", "in front of", etc., discontinuity or non-sequential situations may be included, and thus one or more other events may occur in between, unless more restrictive terms such as "just after", "immediately" or "directly" are used.

[0087] Terms such as "below," "lower," "above," "upper," etc. may be used herein to describe the relationship between elements shown in the drawings. It should be understood that these terms are spatially relative and based on the orientation depicted in the drawings.

[0088] It should be understood that although the terms "first", "second", etc. can be used to describe various elements (e.g., layers, films, regions, parts, sections, members, parts, regions, areas, parts, steps, operations, etc.) in this article, these elements should not be limited by these terms, for example, not limited by any particular order, priority or number of elements. These terms are only used to distinguish one element from another element. For example, without departing from the scope of the present disclosure, the first element can represent the second element, and similarly, the second element can represent the first element. In addition, without departing from the scope of the present disclosure, the first element, the second element, etc. can be arbitrarily named according to the convenience of those skilled in the art. For the sake of clarity, the function or structure of these elements (e.g., the first element, the second element, etc.) is not limited by the ordinal number or name in front of the element. In addition, the first element can include one or more first elements. Similarly, the second element, etc. can include one or more second elements, etc.

[0089] When describing elements of the present disclosure, terms such as "first", "second", "A", "B", "(a)", "(b)", etc. may be used. These terms are intended to identify corresponding elements from other elements, and these terms are not used to limit the nature, basis, order or number of the elements.

[0090] When an element (for example, a layer, a film, a region, a component, a section, etc.) is described as being “connected,” “coupled,” “attached,” “adhered,” etc. to another element, unless otherwise specified, the element may not only be directly connected, coupled, attached, adhered, etc. to the other element but may also be indirectly connected, coupled, attached, adhered, etc. to the other element by disposing or inserting one or more intervening elements between the elements.

[0091] When an element (for example, a layer, film, region, component, section, etc.) is “contacted”, “overlapped”, etc. with another element, unless otherwise specified, the element may not only be directly in contact with, overlapped with, etc., but may also be indirectly in contact with, overlapped with, etc., with the other element by having one or more intervening elements disposed or inserted between the elements.

[0092] Phrases that an element (e.g., a layer, a film, a region, a component, a section, etc.) is "set," "arranged," "connected," "coupled" in, on, or together with another element, or is "set," "arranged," "connected," "coupled" to another element, etc., can be understood, for example, as at least a portion of the element being set, arranged, connected, coupled, etc. in, on, or together with at least a portion of another element, or being set, arranged, connected, coupled, etc. to at least a portion of another element; or the entire element being set, arranged, connected, coupled, etc. in, on, or together with another element, or being set, arranged, connected, coupled, etc. to another element. Phrases that an element (e.g., a layer, a film, a region, a component, a section, etc.) is "in contact with," "overlaps," etc. with another element can be understood, for example, as at least a portion of the element is in contact with, overlaps, etc. with at least a portion of another element, the entirety of the element is in contact with, overlaps, etc. with at least a portion of another element, or at least a portion of the element is in contact with, overlaps, etc. with the entirety of another element, etc.

[0093] Terms such as "row" or "direction" should not be interpreted solely based on the geometric relationship of the corresponding rows or directions being parallel or perpendicular to each other. Such terms may refer to a wider range of lines or directions: within the wider range of lines or directions, the components of the present disclosure can operate functionally. For example, terms "first direction", "second direction", etc., such as directions parallel or perpendicular to the "x-axis", "y-axis", or "z-axis", should not be interpreted solely based on the geometric relationship of the corresponding directions being parallel or perpendicular to each other, and may refer to directions with wider directivity within the range within which the components of the present disclosure can operate functionally.

[0094] The term "at least one" should be understood to include any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. For example, each of the phrases "at least one of the first, second, or third items" and "at least one of the first, second, and third items" can mean: (i) a combination of items provided by one or more of the first, second, and third items; or (ii) only one of the first, second, and third items.

[0095] The expression of a first element, a second element “and / or” a third element should be understood to cover one of the first element, the second element, and the third element, and any and all combinations of the first element, the second element, and the third element. As an example, A, B, and / or C covers only A; only B; only C; any one of A, B, and C (e.g., A, B, or C); some combinations of A, B, and C (e.g., A and B; A and C; or B and C); and all of A, B, and C. In addition, the expression “A / B” may be understood as A and / or B. For example, the expression “A / B” may refer to only A; only B; A or B; or A and B.

[0096] In one or more aspects, unless otherwise stated, for convenience, the terms "between" and "wherein" can be simply used interchangeably. For example, the expression "between multiple elements" can be understood as in multiple elements. In another example, the expression "in multiple elements" can be understood as between multiple elements. In one or more examples, the number of elements can be two. In one or more examples, the number of elements can be more than two. In addition, when an element (e.g., a layer, a film, a region, a component, a section, etc.) is referred to as being "between" at least two elements, the element can be the only element between the at least two elements, or one or more intervening elements may also be present.

[0097] In one or more aspects, unless otherwise specified, for convenience, the phrases "each other" and "mutually" may be simply used interchangeably. For example, the expression "different from each other" may be understood as different from each other. In another example, the expression "different from each other" may be understood as different from each other. In one or more examples, the number of elements involved in the foregoing statements may be two. In one or more examples, the number of elements involved in the foregoing statements may be more than two.

[0098] In one or more aspects, the phrases "one or more of" and "one or more of" may be used simply interchangeably for convenience unless otherwise indicated.

[0099] The term "or" means an inclusive or rather than an exclusive or. For example, unless otherwise specified or clear from the context, the statement "x uses a or b" means any of the natural inclusive permutations. For example, "a or b" may mean "a", "b", or "a and b". For example, "a, b or c" may mean "a", "b", "c", "a and b", "b and c", "a and c", or "a, b, and c".

[0100] The features of the various aspects of the present disclosure may be coupled or combined in part or in their entirety, may be technically associated with each other, and may be operated, linked or driven together in various ways. The various aspects of the present disclosure may be implemented or performed independently of one another, or may be implemented or performed together with a common reliance or related relationship. In one or more aspects, the parts of each device according to the various aspects of the present disclosure may be operationally coupled and configured.

[0101] Unless otherwise defined, the terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by a person of ordinary skill in the art to which the exemplary aspects belong. It should also be understood that terms (such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries) should be interpreted as having, for example, a meaning consistent with their meaning in the relevant technical context, and should not be interpreted as an idealized or overly formal meaning, unless otherwise explicitly defined herein.

[0102] The terms used herein have been selected as common terms in the relevant technical field; however, other terms may exist according to the development and / or change of technology, convention, preference of technicians, etc. Therefore, the terms used herein should not be understood as limiting the technical concept, but should be understood as examples of terms used to describe exemplary aspects.

[0103] In addition, in certain cases, the terms may be arbitrarily selected by the applicant, and in this case, their detailed meanings are described herein. Therefore, the terms used in this article should be understood not only based on the term names, but also based on the meanings of the terms and their contents.

[0104] The “X-axis direction”, “Y-axis direction”, and “Z-axis direction” should not be interpreted only by the geometric relationship of being vertical to each other, and may have broader directivities within the range in which the elements of the present disclosure can function functionally.

[0105] In the following description, various example aspects of the present disclosure are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. With respect to the reference numerals of the elements of each of the accompanying drawings, the same elements may be shown in other drawings, and unless otherwise specified, the same reference numerals may refer to the same elements. The same or similar elements may be represented by the same reference numerals even if they are depicted in different drawings.

[0106] In addition, for the sake of convenience of description, the proportions, dimensions, sizes, and thicknesses of each of the elements shown in the drawings may be different from the actual proportions, dimensions, sizes, and thicknesses, and therefore, aspects of the present disclosure are not limited to the proportions, dimensions, sizes, and thicknesses shown in the drawings.

However, there may be a problem that the sound of the low-pitched vocal band is not output, and there may be a problem that the flatness of the sound pressure level is reduced, because the number of peaks and declines that appear in the reproduction frequency band of the sound (or sound pressure level) generated based on the vibration of the vehicle interior material 130 increases, and each of the highest sound pressure level and the lowest sound pressure level that appear in the reproduction frequency band of the sound (or sound pressure level) generated based on the vibration of the vehicle interior material 130 increases. The peak may be a phenomenon that the sound pressure level bounces at a specific frequency, and the decline may be a phenomenon that a low sound pressure level is generated as the occurrence of the sound with a specific frequency decreases. The flatness of the sound characteristic may be the deviation level between the highest sound pressure and the lowest sound pressure.

[0141] The inventors of the present disclosure have performed extensive research and experiments for realizing a sound device and a vehicle device including the sound device, wherein the sound characteristics of the low-pitched vocal band can be improved and the flatness characteristics of the sound pressure level can be enhanced.

For example, the first housing 311 may be configured to surround the first surface of the sound generating module 330. The first housing 311 may be configured to cover the first surface of the sound generating module 330.

[0165] The first housing 311 may be connected (or coupled) to the vehicle interior material 130.

The rear surface (or lower surface) of the first housing 311 may be connected (or coupled) to the first surface of the vehicle interior material 130.

[0166] The first housing 311 may vibrate based on the driving (or vibration or displacement) of the sound generating module 330, and the vehicle interior material 130 may vibrate based on the vibration of the first housing 311 to generate or output sound. Therefore, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, sound may be generated based on the vibration of the vehicle interior material 130, the size of which is larger than that of the sound device 30, thereby enhancing the sound characteristics and / or sound pressure level characteristics of the vocal cords including the low-pitched vocal cords generated by the driving (or vibration or displacement) of the sound device 30.

[0172] The vibration member 331 may be disposed or configured at an area between the first shell 311 and the second shell 312 of the shell 310. The vibration member 331 may be configured to divide the internal space 313 of the shell 310 into a first space 313a and a second space 313b. For example, the internal space 313 of the shell 310 may be divided into a first space 313a and a second space 313b by the vibration member 331. For example, the first space 313a of the internal space 313 may be disposed in an area between the first shell 311 of the shell 310 and the vibration member 331, and may be covered by the vibration member 331. The second space 313b of the internal space 313 may be disposed in an area between the second shell 312 of the shell 310 and the vibration member 331, and may be covered by the vibration member 331.

[0173] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first vibration device 333 and the second vibration device 335 may be at different spaces in the inner space 313 of the housing 310. For example, the first vibration device 333 may be at the first space 313a. For example, the second vibration device 335 may be at the second space 313b.

[0174] The first space 313a may be between the sound generating module 330 and the first housing 311.

The first space 313a may be between the first vibration device 333 and the first housing 311. The second space 313b may be between the sound generating module 330 and the second housing 312. For example, the second space 313b may be between a second surface of the sound generating module 330 that is different from (or opposite to) the first surface and the second housing 312. The second space 313b may be between the second vibration device 335 and the second housing 312. For example, the internal space 313 may be a gap space, an air space, a vibration space, a sound space, a sound box, a sealed space, etc., but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

[0175] The sound generation module 330 may generate a sound pressure level (or sound or sound wave) in the interior space 313 of the housing 310 to vibrate the housing 310, and may vibrate the vehicle interior material 130 based on the vibration of the housing 310. For example, the sound generation module 330 may be configured to vibrate the first housing 311 of the housing 310 to vibrate the vehicle interior material 130. For example, the sound generation module 330 may generate a sound pressure level (or sound or sound wave) in the interior space 313 of the housing 310 to vibrate the first housing 311, and may vibrate the vehicle interior material 130 based on the vibration of the first housing 311.

[0176] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first housing 311 may include an opening portion 310 o .

[0177] The opening portion 310o may be configured to pass through (or vertically pass through) the first shell 311 along the thickness direction Z (or vertical direction) of the shell 310. The opening portion 310o may be connected to the internal space 313 (or communicate with the internal space 313). For example, the opening portion 310o may be connected to the first space 313a (or communicate with the first space 313a). For example, the opening portion 310o may be configured to reduce the air pressure of the internal space 313 of the shell 310. For example, the opening portion 310o may be configured to reduce the air pressure of the first space 313a. The opening portion 310o may be configured to reduce the air pressure of the first space 313a of the first shell 311 or the air pressure of the first space 313a provided between the vibration member 331 and the first shell 311. Therefore, the frequency band of the low-pitched vocal band can be expanded, and thus the sound characteristics of the low-pitched vocal band can be improved. Since the pressure (or air pressure) of the first space 313a is reduced by the opening 310o, the displacement (or bending force) of the first vibration device 333 disposed between the vibration member 331 and the first housing 311 can be increased, and therefore, the frequency band of the low-pitched vocal band can be expanded, thereby enhancing the sound characteristics and / or sound pressure level characteristics of the low-pitched vocal band. Therefore, the sound characteristics (or sound pressure level) of the low-pitched vocal band generated based on the vibration of the first vibration device 333 and / or the second vibration device 335 can be improved.

[0178] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the opening 310o may be provided to correspond to the central portion of the sound generating module 330. For example, the opening 310o may be provided to correspond to the vibration devices 333 and 335. For example, the opening 310o may be provided to correspond to the central portion of the first vibration device 333 and the second vibration device 335. For example, the opening 310o may be provided to correspond to the central portion of each of the first vibration device 333 and the second vibration device 335. For example, the internal space 313 of the housing 310 may include a space connected to the opening 310o. For example, the internal space 313 of the housing 310 may include a first space 313a connected to the opening 310o.

For example, the opening portion 310o may include a line shape having a size (or length) smaller than the first vibration device 333 provided at the vibration member 331. For example, the opening portion 310o may be a hole, a groove, or a slit, but the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. For example, the opening portion 310o may be a sound emission portion, a first sound emission port, a sound output portion, a sound output port, a sound output hole, or a vent, but the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

[0180] The opening portion 310o may be a space in which sound waves generated based on the vibration of the sound generating module 330 propagate (or transfer) to the interior space IS of the vehicle 10. For example, the vibration of the sound generating module 330 may be transferred to the interior space IS of the vehicle 10 through the opening portion 310o. For example, sound waves (or sounds) based on the vibration of the sound generating module 330 may be transferred (or output or emitted) to the interior space IS of the vehicle 10 through the opening portion 310o. Therefore, the vibration width (or displacement width) of the vibration member 331 based on the vibration of the sound generating module 330 may be increased, and therefore, the sound characteristics and / or sound pressure level characteristics generated based on the vibration of the vibration member 331 may be enhanced.

[0181] The first housing 311 including the opening portion 310o may be disposed closer to the vehicle interior material 130 than the second housing 312. For example, the first housing 311 including the opening portion 310o may be disposed closer to the vehicle interior material 130 than the second housing 312. Therefore, the sound generated based on the vibration of one or more of the first vibration device 333 and the second vibration device 335 may be output to the interior space IS of the vehicle 10, and therefore, the sound including the low-pitched vocal band may be output to the interior space IS of the vehicle 10.

[0182] The first shell 311 may include a sloped surface (or inclined surface) 311s and an inner surface 311i. The sloped surface 311s may be configured to be inclined between the opening portion 310o of the first shell 311 and the inner surface 311i. The sloped surface 311s may be configured to guide the sound generated based on the vibration of the sound generating module 330 to the inner space IS of the vehicle 10. Therefore, the sound generated based on the vibration of the sound generating module 330 can be output to the inner space IS of the vehicle 10, and the sound characteristics and / or sound pressure level characteristics of the sound including the low-pitched vocal band can be further enhanced. For example, the sloped surface 311s may be a guide surface or a sound guiding surface, but the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto.

Since the sound device 30 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a housing 310 including an opening 310o, the air pressure of the internal space 313 of the housing 310 may be reduced, and therefore, the vocal cords of the low-pitched vocal cords may be expanded, thereby improving the sound characteristics and / or sound pressure level characteristics of the low-pitched vocal cords.

For example, at least one or more holes 331o may be disposed adjacent to the side surface of each of the vibration devices 333 and 335. For example, the distance between at least one or more holes 331o and each of the vibration devices 333 and 335 may be less than the distance between at least one or more holes 331o and the side wall (or side surface) of the housing 310. For example, when at least one or more holes 331o are disposed at a position away from each of the vibration devices 333 and 335, the sound characteristics and / or sound pressure level characteristics of the low-pitched vocal cords may be further improved.

[0383] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, at least one or more holes 331o may be configured at the vibration member 331 adjacent to the vibration devices 333 and 335, wherein the vibration devices 333 and 335 are between the at least one or more holes 331o and the vibration member 331.

Therefore, the sound generated in the second space 313b based on the vibration (or drive) of each vibration device in the vibration devices 333 and 335 can be output to the first space 313a through at least one or more holes 331o, and the sound characteristics and / or sound pressure level characteristics of the low-pitched vocal band can be enhanced.

[0387] Reference Fig.26 and Fig.28 , the size of at least one or more holes 331o may be different from Fig. 27 As the size of the at least one or more holes 331o increases, the sound characteristics and / or sound pressure level characteristics of the low-pitched vocal range increase. For example, the distance between the at least one or more holes 331o and the vibration devices 333 and 335 may be smaller than the distance between the at least one or more holes 331o and the side wall (or side surface) of the housing 310.

For example, the two holes 331o may be configured to be adjacent to the vibration devices 333 and 335. For example, the distance between each of the two holes 331o and the vibration devices 333 and 335 may be different. For example, the two holes 331o may be configured in parallel in the first direction X to be adjacent to the vibration devices 333 and 335. For example, the distance between each of the two holes 331o and the vibration devices 333 and 335 may be equal to each other. For example, each of the two holes 331o may be configured to be adjacent to the vibration devices 333 and 335. For example, the two holes 331o may be configured in parallel in the second direction Y to be adjacent to the vibration devices 333 and 335.

For example, when one or more holes 331o are circular in shape, one or more holes 331o may be cylindrical in shape in a cross-sectional view, but embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. For example, the hole wall may have a shape that changes from the top (or first) opening of one or more holes to the bottom (or second) opening. In various embodiments of the present disclosure, the top opening may refer to the opening of the hole 331o facing the second shell 312, and the bottom opening may refer to the opening of the hole 331o facing the first shell 311.

[0392] In embodiments of the present disclosure, the shape of the hole wall can narrow from the top opening to the bottom opening or from the bottom opening to the top opening. In various embodiments of the present disclosure, the size or area of ​​the top opening and the bottom opening can be different from each other, but can also be the same. When the size or area of ​​the top opening and the bottom opening are different, the top opening can be smaller than the bottom opening, or the bottom opening can be smaller than the top opening.

For example, the first cover member 1313 may be at the first electrode portion 1311b. For example, the first cover member 1313 may be configured to have a larger size than the vibration generating portion 1311. The first cover member 1313 may be configured to protect the first surface of the vibration generating portion 1311 and the first electrode portion 1311b.

[0436] The second cover member 1315 may be disposed at the second surface of the vibration generating portion 1311.

An end portion (or distal portion or one side) of the signal supply member 1320 may be disposed or inserted (or accommodated) between an edge portion (or one peripheral portion) of the first cover member 1313 and an edge portion (or one peripheral portion) of the second cover member 1315. An edge portion of the first cover member 1313 and an edge portion of the second cover member 1315 may accommodate or vertically (or up and down) cover the end portion (or distal portion or one side) of the signal supply member 1320. Therefore, the signal supply member 1320 may be integrated (or configured) as one with the vibration generating portion 1311. Therefore, the sound generating module 330 or the vibration devices 333 and 335 may be implemented (or configured) as a membrane type integrated with the signal supply member 1320. For example, the signal supply member 1320 may be configured as a portion (or a component) with the vibration generating portion 1311, thereby achieving a single material effect.

For example, the signal supply member 1320 may include a base member 1321, a first signal line 1323a, and a second signal line 1323b.

[0447] The base member 1321 may include a transparent or opaque plastic material, but the embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited thereto. The base member 1321 may have a certain width along the first direction X, and may extend long along a second direction Y intersecting the first direction X.

[0448] The first signal line 1323a and the second signal line 1323b may be disposed at a first surface of the base member 1321 parallel to the second direction Y, and may be spaced apart from each other or electrically separated from each other along the first direction X. The first signal line 1323a and the second signal line 1323b may be disposed parallel to each other at the first surface of the base member 1321. For example, the first signal line 1323a and the second signal line 1323b may be implemented in a line shape by patterning a metal layer (or a conductive layer) formed or deposited at the first surface of the base member 1321.

[0449] End portions (or distal end portions or one side) of the first signal line 1323 a and the second signal line 1323 b may be separated from each other and thus may be individually bent or curved.

[0450] The end portion (or distal portion or one side) of the first signal line 1323a may be electrically connected to the first electrode portion 1311b of the vibration generating portion 1311. For example, the end portion of the first signal line 1323a may be electrically connected to at least a portion of the first electrode portion 1311b of the vibration generating portion 1311 in one edge portion of the first cover member 1313. For example, the end portion (or distal portion or one side) of the first signal line 1323a may be electrically connected and directly connected to at least a portion of the first electrode portion 1311b of the vibration generating portion 1311. For example, the end portion (or distal portion or one side) of the first signal line 1323a may be electrically connected to or directly contact the first electrode portion 1311b of the vibration generating portion 1311. For example, the end portion of the first signal line 1323a may be electrically connected to the first electrode portion 1311b by a conductive double-sided tape. Therefore, the first signal line 1323 a may be configured to transfer the first driving signal supplied from the driving circuit portion (or the vibration driver) to the first electrode portion 1311 b of the vibration generating portion 1311 .

[0451] The end portion (or distal portion or one side) of the second signal line 1323b can be electrically connected to the second electrode portion 1311c of the vibration generating unit 1311. For example, the end portion of the second signal line 1323b can be electrically connected to at least a portion of the second electrode portion 1311c of the vibration generating unit 1311 in one edge portion of the second cover member 1315. For example, the end portion of the second signal line 1323b can be electrically connected and directly connected to at least a portion of the second electrode portion 1311c of the vibration generating unit 1311. For example, the end portion of the second signal line 1323b can be electrically connected to or directly contact the second electrode portion 1311c of the vibration generating unit 1311. For example, the end portion of the second signal line 1323b can be electrically connected to the second electrode portion 1311c of the vibration generating unit 1311 by a conductive double-sided tape. Therefore, the second signal line 1323b can be configured to transfer the second drive signal supplied from the drive circuit unit (or vibration driver) to the second electrode portion 1311c of the vibration generating unit 1311.

[0452] The signal supply member 1320 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may further include an insulating layer 1325 .

[0453] The insulating layer 1325 may be disposed at the first surface of the base member 1321 to cover each of the first signal line 1323 a and the second signal line 1323 b except for an end portion (or one side) of the signal supply member 1320 .

[0454] An end portion (or one side) of the signal supply member 1320 including an end portion (or one side) of the base member 1321 and an end portion (or one side) 1325a of the insulating layer 1325 may be inserted (or accommodated) between the first cover member 1313 and the second cover member 1315, and may be fixed between the first cover member 1313 and the second cover member 1315 by the first adhesive layer 1317 and the second adhesive layer 1319. Therefore, an end portion (or one side) of the first signal line 1323a may remain electrically connected to the first electrode portion 1311b of the vibration generating portion 1311, and an end portion (or one side) of the second signal line 1323b may remain electrically connected to the second electrode portion 1311c of the vibration generating portion 1311. In addition, an end portion (or one side) of the signal supply member 1320 can be inserted (or accommodated) and fixed between the vibration generating part 1311 and the first cover member 1313, and thus, a contact defect between the vibration generator 1310 and the signal supply member 1320 caused by movement of the signal supply member 1320 can be prevented.

[0455] In the signal supply member 1320 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, each of the end portion (or one side) of the base member 1321 and the end portion (or one side) 1325a of the insulating layer 1325 can be removed. For example, each of the end portion of the first signal line 1323a and the end portion of the second signal line 1323b can be exposed to the outside without being supported or covered by each of the end portion (or one side) 1325a of the base member 1321 and the end portion (or one side) 1325a of the insulating layer 1325, respectively. For example, the end portion (or one side) of each of the first signal line 1323a and the second signal line 1323b can protrude (or extend) from the end portion 1321e of the base member 1321 or the end portion 1325e of the insulating layer 1325 to have a certain length. Therefore, each of the end portions (or distal portions or one side) of each of the first signal line 1323a and the second signal line 1323b can be bent individually or independently.

[0456] An end portion (or one side) of the first signal line 1323a that is not supported by an end portion (or one side) of the base member 1321 and an end portion 1325a of the insulating layer 1325 may be directly connected to or directly contact the first electrode portion 1311b of the vibration generating portion 1311. An end portion (or one side) of the second signal line 1323b that is not supported by an end portion (or one side) of the base member 1321 and an end portion 1325a of the insulating layer 1325 may be directly connected to or directly contact the second electrode portion 1311c of the vibration generating portion 1311.
