Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of electronic products, and specifically relates to an electronic device. Background Art

[0002] In pursuit of the ultimate appearance design, the design with fewer or even no holes has become the mainstream development trend of the appearance of electronic products. For example, the industrial design (ID) appearance of mobile phones has always retained the microphone sound hole, which affects the integrity of the appearance.

[0003] In order to improve the appearance integrity of electronic devices, the microphone's sound receiving channel and the speaker's micro-slit sound output channel are generally designed to share the same structure. However, since the microphone's sound receiving channel and the speaker's sound output channel share a micro-slit, when the microphone and speaker are working at the same time, the sound emitted by the speaker will interfere with the microphone's sound reception, causing problems such as intermittent voice or noise. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the embodiments of the present application is to provide an electronic device that can solve the problem that the sound emitted by a speaker interferes with the sound reception of a microphone, causing intermittent speech or noise.

[0009] A speaker and a microphone, wherein the speaker and the microphone are arranged in the frame;

[0010] The sound output part of the speaker is connected to the gap through the first channel, and the sound receiving part of the microphone is connected to the gap through the second channel;

[0011] The partition wall is the space between the first channel and the second channel at the gap.

[0012] In an embodiment of the present application, the electronic device includes a frame and a screen assembly, the screen assembly is covered on the frame, and a gap is formed at the connection between the screen assembly and the frame; the sound output part of the speaker is connected to the gap through a first channel, and the sound receiving part of the microphone is connected to the gap through a second channel; the first channel and the second channel are separated at the gap by a partition wall. In this way, in a scenario where the sound receiving channel of the microphone and the sound output channel of the speaker share a micro-slit, the sound output channel of the speaker and the sound receiving channel of the microphone can be separated by the partition wall, so as to avoid the problem that when the microphone and the speaker are working at the same time, the sound emitted by the speaker will interfere with the sound reception of the microphone, causing the problem of intermittent voice or noise.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0025] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described here. In addition, the "and / or" in the specification and claims represents at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally represents that the objects associated with each other are in an "or" relationship.

[0026] The control method provided in the embodiment of the present application is described in detail below through specific embodiments and their application scenarios in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1 to 9 , an embodiment of the present invention provides an electronic device, including:

[0028] Frame 1;

[0029] The screen assembly 2 is covered on the frame 1, and a gap 3 is formed at the connection between the screen assembly 2 and the frame 1;

[0030] A speaker 8 and a microphone 7, wherein the speaker and the microphone are arranged in the frame 1;

[0031] The sound output part of the speaker 8 is connected to the gap 3 through the first channel 80, and the sound receiving part of the microphone 7 is connected to the gap 3 through the second channel 50;

[0032] The partition wall 4 is a space between the first channel 80 and the second channel 50 at the gap 3 .

[0033] For example, Figure 1As shown, an isolation wall 4 is provided in the gap 3, and the isolation wall 4 separates the gap 3 into a first sound outlet hole 31 and a first sound receiving hole 32; the first sound outlet hole 31 is communicated with the sound outlet part of the speaker 8 to form a first channel 80, which serves as a sound emission path of the speaker 8; the first sound receiving hole 32 is communicated with the sound receiving part of the microphone 7 to form a second channel 50, which serves as a sound receiving path of the microphone 7.

[0034] In the embodiments of the present application, the electronic device may be a wearable electronic device and a mobile terminal. The mobile terminal includes a mobile phone, a notebook, and a tablet computer. The wearable electronic device includes a smart watch or a smart bracelet, which is not limited here.

[0035] For example, Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, taking the electronic device as a mobile phone as an example, there is a gap 3 at the connection between the top frame of the frame 1 of the mobile phone and the screen assembly 2, and a partition wall 4 is provided in the gap 3, and the sound receiving channel of the microphone 7 and the sound emitting channel of the speaker 8 are separated by the partition wall 4.

[0036] In the embodiment of the present application, the speaker 8 is used to output sound signals, and can be applied to the scene where the electronic device outputs sound signals. For example, the speaker 8 can output sound signals when the electronic device plays music, and can also output sound signals when the electronic device implements a voice call function, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0037] In the embodiment of the present application, the microphone 7 is used to capture and convert sound waves into electrical signals. It can be applied to electronic devices to realize the audio input function. For example, the microphone can be used in scenarios such as voice calls, recordings, and music production. When the user speaks or makes a sound, the microphone converts these sound waves into electrical signals and transmits them to the electronic device for processing and output, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0038] Specifically, when the sound output portion of the speaker 8 emits sound through the first channel 80, the sound wave passes through the sound output path of the speaker 8 and is output from the first sound output hole 31, so that the electronic device outputs a sound signal. Figure 1 As shown by the arrow indicated by the dotted line, the sound emitting part of the speaker 8 is output from the first sound outlet 31 via the generation path formed by the first channel 80 .

[0039] Specifically, Figure 1 The dotted arrow indicates that the sound wave passes through the first sound receiving hole 32 and reaches the sound receiving part of the microphone 7 via the second channel 50 of the microphone 7 .

[0040] In this way, the sound waves can only be received by the sound receiving part of the microphone 7 through the first sound receiving hole 32 via the second channel 50 , while the sound waves emitted by the speaker 8 cannot enter the second channel 50 due to the existence of the isolation wall 4 , and therefore cannot interfere with the sound reception of the microphone 7 .

[0041] In the above embodiment, the electronic device includes a frame 1 and a screen assembly 2, the screen assembly 2 is covered on the frame 1, and a gap 3 is formed at the connection between the screen assembly 2 and the frame 1; the sound output part of the speaker 8 is connected to the gap 3 through the first channel 80, and the sound receiving part of the microphone 7 is connected to the gap 3 through the second channel 50; the first channel and the second channel are separated at the gap by the partition wall 4. In this way, in the scenario where the sound receiving channel of the microphone 7 and the sound emitting channel of the speaker 8 share a micro-slit, by setting the partition wall 4 in the gap 3, the sound emitting channel of the speaker 8 can be isolated from the sound receiving channel of the microphone 7, so as to avoid the problem of intermittent voice or noise when the microphone 7 and the speaker 8 are working at the same time, and the sound emitted by the speaker 8 will interfere with the sound receiving of the microphone 7.

[0042] In some embodiments, the screen assembly 2 is fixedly connected to the isolation wall 4 on the side facing the frame 1, and the isolation wall 4 is installed with a first foam 41 on the end surface close to the frame 1;

[0043] The frame body 1 is provided with a groove 11, and the isolation wall 4 is arranged in the groove 11;

[0044] There is a gap between the isolation wall 4 and the groove 11 , and the first foam 41 is filled in the gap.

[0045] For example, Figure 3 As shown, the screen assembly 2 is formed with a separation wall 4 on the side facing the frame 1 by low-temperature injection molding.

[0046] Optionally, a sound channel structure 21 is also injection-molded on the screen assembly 2. The sound channel structure 21 and the frame 1 are arranged to form a first channel 80 of the speaker 8. The first channel 80 is used to connect the first sound outlet hole 31 at the gap 3 and the sound-emitting part of the speaker 8 to form a sound path of the speaker 8.

[0047] It should be pointed out that since the screen assembly 2 is relatively fragile, in order to prevent the screen assembly 2 from being damaged due to the collision of the partition wall 4 during the assembly process, a gap is reserved between the partition wall 4 in the installed state and the frame 1; further, in order to prevent the gap from being too large to affect the sound isolation effect, the partition wall 4 is installed with a first foam 41 on the end face close to the frame 1. In this way, on the one hand, the first foam 41 can protect the screen assembly 2 during the assembly process, and on the other hand, the first foam 41 can also ensure the sound isolation effect.

[0048] The above-mentioned embodiment can simply and effectively isolate the sound receiving channel of the microphone 7 and the sound output channel of the speaker 8 while avoiding the risk of damage to the screen assembly 2 during installation.

[0049] In some embodiments, the electronic device further includes a sound guide component 5, and the sound guide component 5 and the frame body 1 are surrounded to form a second channel 50;

[0050] The frame 1 is provided with a groove 01 , and the sound guide component 5 is arranged in the groove 01 ; wherein the sound guide wall of the second channel 50 extends to the gap 3 to form a separation wall 4 .

[0051] For example, Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, the sound guide component 5 and the frame 1 are arranged to form a second channel 50, and the second channel 50 connects the first sound receiving hole 32 and the sound receiving part of the microphone 7 to form a sound receiving path of the microphone 7. The dotted line shown in the second channel 50 can be understood as the sound wave signal entering from the first sound receiving hole 32 and reaching the microphone 7 through the second channel 50.

[0052] For example, Figure 6 and Fig. 9 As shown, the sound guide wall on the side close to the first sound outlet hole 31 in the second channel 50 extends toward the gap 3 to form a separation wall 4.

[0053] In the above embodiment, the sound guide wall formed by the sound guide component 5 is extended toward the gap 3 to form the isolation wall 4, so that the sound emission channel of the speaker 8 and the sound receiving channel of the microphone 7 are separated. This can prevent the problem of interfering with the sound reception of the microphone 7 and causing speech interruption or noise when the microphone 7 and the speaker 8 work at the same time.

[0054] In some embodiments, the screen assembly 2 is fixedly connected to the sound guide component 5 on the side facing the frame 1 .

[0055] For example, Figure 6 As shown, the screen assembly 2 is formed with a sound guide component 5 by low temperature injection molding on the side facing the frame 1, and the sound guide component 5 and the frame 1 are arranged to form a second channel 50, so that the sound guide wall of the second channel 50 extends to the gap 3 to form a partition wall 4. In this way, the sound guide component 5 can be formed on the screen assembly 2, and while the sound guide function is realized based on the sound guide component 5, the sound channel of the speaker 8 and the sound receiving channel of the microphone 7 are separated by the sound guide component 5, thereby simplifying the structural design.

[0056] In some embodiments, the sound guide component 5 includes a bottom wall 51 and a side wall 52, and the bottom wall 51 is attached to a side of the screen assembly 2 facing the frame 1;

[0057] The side wall 52 is arranged on a side of the bottom wall 51 away from the screen assembly 2 , and the bottom wall 51 , the side wall 52 and the frame body 1 are arranged to form a second channel 50 ; wherein the side wall 52 extends toward the gap 3 to form a separation wall 4 .

[0058] For example, Figure 5 and6 As shown, the sound guide component 5 includes a bottom wall 51 and a U-shaped side wall 52, and the bottom wall 51 and the U-shaped side wall 52 are arranged to form a groove body, and the groove body has openings in a first direction and a second direction, and the openings in the first direction are connected to the openings in the second direction; the first direction is the direction of the U-shaped opening, and the U-shaped opening is toward the gap 3, and the second direction is away from the front of the screen assembly 2 and toward the frame 1; the groove body formed by the sound guide component 5 and the frame 1 are arranged to form a second channel 50.

[0059] In some embodiments, Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a second foam 42 is installed at one end of the side wall 52 close to the gap 3 , and the second foam 42 is sandwiched between the side wall 52 and the frame 1 .

[0060] It should be pointed out that since the screen assembly 2 is relatively fragile, in order to prevent the sound guide component 5 from hitting the screen assembly 2 during the assembly process and causing damage to the screen, a sufficient gap needs to be reserved between the sound guide component 5 and the frame 1; further, in order to prevent the gap from being too large to affect the sound isolation effect of the isolation wall 4, the side wall 52 is installed with a second foam 42 on the end face close to the frame 1. In this way, on the one hand, the second foam 42 can protect the screen during the assembly process, and on the other hand, the second foam 42 can also ensure the sound isolation effect.

[0061] For example, Figure 5 and Figure 6 In the figure, the side wall 52 of the sound guide component 5 is an adhesive surface D at the end surface facing away from the screen assembly 2, and the sound guide component 5 is sealed and connected to the frame body 1 through the adhesive surface D.

[0062] In some embodiments, the electronic device further includes: a protective cover 6 disposed in the gap 3, and a plurality of through holes are arranged on the protective cover 6;

[0063] The sound guide component 5 is fixedly connected to the protection cover 6 .

[0064] For example, Fig. 9 As shown, the protective cover 6 is evenly provided with through holes, and the sound guide component 5 and the protective cover 6 are designed as an integrated structure, so that the second channel 50 formed by the sound guide component 5 is arranged inside the protective cover 6, and the sound waves enter the second channel 50 through the through holes of the protective cover 6, and finally reach the sound receiving part of the microphone 7. In this way, the sound waves can only enter the second channel 50 formed by the sound guide component 5 through the through holes on the protective cover 6, and then be received by the microphone 7; and the sound waves emitted by the speaker 8 are isolated by the isolation wall 4 formed by the sound guide component 5, and cannot interfere with the sound reception of the microphone 7, which can avoid the problem that when the microphone 7 and the speaker 8 work at the same time, the sound emitted by the speaker 8 will interfere with the sound reception of the microphone 7, causing the problem of intermittent voice or noise.

[0065] In the above embodiment, the sound guide component 5 is fixedly connected to the protective cover 6, and the through hole in the protective cover 6 is reused for sound reception, which can solve the crosstalk problem while ensuring the design aesthetics of the electronic device. Moreover, by receiving sound through the through hole on the protective cover 6, the opening area of ​​the through hole is reduced compared to the gap 3, and the form of the through hole makes it difficult for liquid to enter the second channel 50 due to surface tension, thereby greatly reducing the risk of the second channel 50 of the microphone 7 and the first channel 80 of the speaker 8 being blocked.

[0066] In some embodiments, the sound guide component 5 has a first open end 5a and a second open end 5b;

[0067] The first opening end 5a is fixedly connected to the protective cover 6 to form a sound receiving hole of the microphone 7; the second opening end 5b is connected to the sound receiving part of the microphone 7, and the first opening end 5a and the second opening end 5b are connected to each other to form a second channel 50;

[0068] like Fig. 9 In the embodiment, the first opening end 5 a extends to the portion at the gap 3 to form a partition wall 4 .

[0069] For example, Figures 7 to 9 As shown, the first opening end 5a is bent relative to the main body of the sound guide component 5 and extends toward the slit 3, and is fixedly connected to the protective cover 6 in the slit 3, so as to separate the first sound receiving hole 32 in the slit 3; further, the second opening end 5b is connected to the sound receiving part of the microphone 7 through the through hole structure 12 provided in the frame 1. In this way, the second channel 50 formed from the first opening end 5a to the second opening end 5b and then from the second opening end 5b to the sound receiving part of the microphone 7 can serve as the sound receiving path of the microphone 7.

[0070] For example, Figure 8 and Fig. 9 In the figure, the end face of the sound guide component 5 facing away from the screen assembly 2 is an adhesive surface D, and the sound guide component 5 is sealed and connected to the frame 1 through the adhesive surface D.

[0071] In some embodiments, the electronic device further includes: a protective cover 6 disposed in the gap 3, and a plurality of through holes are arranged on the protective cover 6;

[0072] The partition wall 4 is fixedly connected to the protective cover 6 .

[0073] In this embodiment, the isolation wall 4 is directly fixed on the protective cover 6, so that when the protective cover 6 is installed in the gap 3, the gap 3 can be divided into a first sound outlet 31 and a first sound receiving hole 32 by the isolation wall 4, so that the first sound outlet 31 is connected to the first channel 80, and the first sound receiving hole 32 is connected to the second channel 50. In this way, the sound channel of the speaker 8 is isolated from the sound receiving channel of the microphone 7, so that the sound emitted by the speaker 8 will not interfere with the sound receiving of the microphone 7.

[0074] In some embodiments, Fig. 9 As shown, the protective cover 6 is provided with a hanging foot 61 at one end away from the sound guide component 5 , and the hanging foot 61 is fixedly connected to the frame 1 .

[0075] Optionally, the protective cover 6, the sound guide component 5 and the hanging foot 61 are an integrally formed structure.

[0076] In this embodiment, the protective cover is fixedly connected to the frame 1 via the hanging feet 61 to prevent the protective cover 6 from falling out of the gap 3 .

[0077] In some embodiments, Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, a silicone pad 10 is sandwiched between the frame 1 and a printed circuit board (PCB) 9 , and the microphone 7 is mounted on the PCB 9 .
