[0030] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numerals in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0031] The terminology used in this disclosure is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the disclosure. The singular forms “a,” “the,” and “the” as used in this disclosure and the appended claims are also intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It should also be understood that the term “and / or” as used herein refers to and includes any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0032] It should be understood that although the terms first, second, third, etc., may be used in this disclosure to describe various information, such information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are used only to distinguish information of the same type from one another. For example, without departing from the scope of this disclosure, first information may also be referred to as second information, and similarly, second information may also be referred to as first information. Depending on the context, the word "if" as used herein may be interpreted as "when," "when," or "in response to determination."

[0033] Figure 1 This is an exploded schematic diagram illustrating an audio module according to an exemplary embodiment. For example... Figure 1As shown, the audio module includes a first action component 1, a second action component 2, a third action component 3, and an audio body 4. The audio body 4 may include components such as a diaphragm, a sound cavity, and a housing, to transmit sound through the vibration of the diaphragm. The third action component 3 is fixedly connected to the audio body 4; for example, it can be fixedly connected to the housing of the audio body 4. The third action component 3 is located between the first action component 1 and the second action component 2, and is spaced apart from both the first and second action components. Furthermore, the third action component 3 can interact with the first action component 1 to generate a first force F1, and the third action component 3 can interact with the second action component 2 to generate a second force F2. The first force F1 and the second force F2 are in opposite directions, and both are parallel to the vibration direction of the audio body.

[0034] for example, Figure 2 As shown, the first force F1 points upward and the second force F2 points downward. Thus, through the first force F1 and the second force F2, when the audio body 4 drives the third action 3 to vibrate up and down, the vibration is basically consumed between the first action 1 and the second action 2, reducing or even eliminating the amount of vibration transmitted to the frame structure of the electronic device, thereby improving the operating experience.

[0035] In some embodiments, the first actuating element 1 is a first magnet, the second actuating element 2 is a second magnet, and the third actuating element 3 is a third magnet. The third magnet and the first magnet are positioned face-to-face on opposite sides having the same polarity, and the third magnet and the second magnet are positioned face-to-face on opposite sides having the same polarity. Thus, the first force F1 between the first actuating element 1 and the third actuating element 3 is a repulsive force pointing towards the third actuating element 3, and the second force F2 between the second actuating element 2 and the third actuating element 3 is a repulsive force pointing towards the third actuating element 3, thereby achieving the levitation of the third actuating element 3.

[0036] In some embodiments, the first actuating element 1 is a first magnet, the second actuating element 2 is a second magnet, and the third actuating element 3 is an electromagnetic coil. By energizing the electromagnetic coil, it exhibits magnetic poles. By controlling the direction of the current in the electromagnetic coil, the sides of the electromagnetic coil and the first magnet with the same polarity can be arranged facing each other, and the sides of the electromagnetic coil and the second magnet with the same polarity can be arranged facing each other. Thus, the first force F1 between the first actuating element 1 and the third actuating element 3 is a repulsive force pointing towards the third actuating element 3, and the second force F2 between the second actuating element 2 and the third actuating element 3 is a repulsive force pointing towards the third actuating element 3, thereby achieving the levitation of the third actuating element 3.

[0037] In the above embodiments, when the audio module is configured to an electronic device, the first functional member 1 and the second functional member 2 can be fixedly set to the fixed frame structure of the electronic device, and can be directly fixedly connected or indirectly fixedly connected. The first functional member 1 and the second functional member 2 can be fixedly connected to the same fixed frame structure or different fixed frame structures, and this disclosure does not limit this.

[0038] In other embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the audio module may further include a first fixing member 5 and a second fixing member 6. The first fixing member 5 is fixedly connected to the first functional member 1, and the second fixing member 6 is fixedly connected to the second functional member 2. Thus, the arrangement of the first fixing member 5 and the second fixing member 6 helps to reduce the probability of loss of the first functional member 1 and the second functional member 2. The first functional member 1 and the first fixing member 5 can be fixed by means of adhesive bonding, snap-fitting, locking connection, or welding, and the second functional member 2 and the second fixing member 6 can be fixed by means of adhesive bonding, snap-fitting, locking connection, or welding. This disclosure does not impose any limitations on these methods.

[0039] Furthermore, still based on Figure 2 As shown, the first fixing member 5 also includes a base 51 and a guide post 52 extending vertically from the base 51. The guide post 52 passes through the first actuating member 1, the second actuating member 2, and the third actuating member 3. The guide post 52 facilitates the positioning of the relative positions of the first actuating member 1, the second actuating member 2, and the third actuating member 3, keeping them in the same axial direction. Furthermore, the guide post 52 guides the third actuating member 3 during vibration. Of course, in other embodiments, the second fixing member 6 may also include a base and a guide post; specific implementation details can be found in the first fixing member 5, and will not be repeated here.

[0040] In some embodiments, the first fixing member 5 may further include a first recess 53, and the first actuating member 1 may be at least partially fixed within the first recess 53, thereby reducing the combined thickness of the first fixing member 5 and the first actuating member 1 and facilitating the miniaturization of the audio module. The first actuating member 1 may be fixed within the first recess 53 by adhesive bonding.

[0041] In some embodiments, the second fixing member 6 may further include a second recess 61, and the second actuating member 2 may be at least partially fixed within the second recess 61, thereby reducing the combined thickness of the second fixing member 6 and the second actuating member 2 and facilitating the miniaturization of the audio module. The second actuating member 2 may be fixed within the second recess 61 by adhesive bonding.

[0042] In the above embodiments, the audio body 4 further includes a housing extension 41 and a limiting opening provided in the housing extension 41. The third actuating member 3 includes a limiting groove 31 recessed from the outer surface and provided circumferentially along the third actuating member. The third actuating member 3 passes through the limiting opening, and the housing extension 41 is partially located within the limiting groove 31, thereby achieving relative fixation between the third actuating member 3 and the audio body 4. In this embodiment, the third actuating member 3 and the housing of the audio body 4 can be integrally molded by injection molding. In other embodiments, the third actuating member 3 and the housing of the audio body 4 are fixed in other ways, and this disclosure does not impose any limitations on this.

[0043] Based on the technical solution disclosed herein, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, an electronic device is also provided. This electronic device may include a fixed frame structure 101 and the audio module described in any of the foregoing embodiments. The first functional member 1 is fixed relative to the fixed frame structure 101, and the second functional member 2 is fixed relative to the fixed frame structure 101. In some embodiments, the first functional member 1 and the second functional member 2 may be directly fixedly connected to the same fixed frame structure 101, or they may be directly fixedly connected to different fixed frame structures 101. In other embodiments, the first functional member 1 and the second functional member 2 may be indirectly fixedly connected to the same fixed frame structure 101, or they may be indirectly fixedly connected to different fixed frame structures 101. For example, the first functional member 1 is connected to the fixed frame structure 101 via a first fixing member 5, and the second functional member 2 is connected to the fixed frame structure 101 via a second fixing member 6. This electronic device may include a laptop computer, a wearable device, or a handheld device, etc.
