Description

Ventilation structure of electronic device and electronic device including same

[0001] Various embodiments disclosed in this document relate to electronic devices including a ventilation structure.

[0002] With technological advancements, wearable electronic devices (e.g., smartwatches) are becoming increasingly widespread, following user terminals like smartphones and tablets. Wearable electronic devices may include smartwatches, which are worn on a user's body (e.g., wrist) and perform various functions.

[0003] The above information may be provided as background art to aid in understanding the present disclosure. No claim or determination is made as to whether any of the above is applicable as prior art related to the present disclosure.

[0004] Electronic devices, such as smartwatches, may include a microphone used for calls and recording. A waterproofing member may be formed inside the electronic device to prevent or block moisture, etc., from entering the microphone. External sounds are transmitted to the waterproofing member through an acoustic hole in the electronic device, and as the waterproofing member vibrates, the sound can be picked up by a microphone positioned inside the electronic device. An acoustic space (e.g., a first space) may be formed inside the electronic device for the microphone to pick up external sounds. The first space may be a space formed by mechanisms positioned between the waterproofing member and the microphone. The mechanisms may include a waterproofing member that blocks foreign substances (moisture, dust) entering through the acoustic hole of the electronic device from being transmitted to the microphone and prevents the inflow of foreign substances into other electronic components. Meanwhile, changes in air pressure may occur between the acoustic space and the external space of the mechanism (e.g., a second space) due to assembly of the electronic device or temperature changes within the electronic device. Consequently, an imbalance in the flatness of the waterproofing member, such as the waterproofing member becoming wrinkled, may occur. An imbalance in the flatness of the waterproofing member may cause changes in the microphone sound quality. The electronic device may include a vent structure through which air is vented to equalize air pressure between the first space and the second space.

[0005] Electronic devices, such as smartwatches, may include speakers used for calls, recordings, and ringtones. Speakers located within electronic devices can emit sound externally, but some sound may also be emitted internally. When sound from the speaker is emitted internally, it may be transmitted to the microphone through the ventilation structure. In such cases, echo may occur during a call, as the sound from the speaker leaks into the microphone. Consequently, call performance may deteriorate when two callers speak simultaneously.

[0006] The technical tasks to be achieved in this document are not limited to the technical tasks mentioned above, and other technical tasks not mentioned can be clearly understood by a person having ordinary knowledge in the technical field to which this document belongs from the description below.

[0007] An electronic device according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a housing including an acoustic hole, a microphone module disposed inside the housing including a microphone hole, a guide member including a first space between the acoustic hole and the microphone hole, and a breathable member disposed between the housing and the microphone module, wherein the breathable member includes a first conduit including a first end portion and a first end portion, an inlet connected to the first conduit extending from the first end portion and the first end portion and in fluid communication with the first space, a second conduit including a second end portion and a second end portion, an outlet connected to the second conduit extending from the second end portion and the second end portion and in fluid communication with a second space that is an external space of the guide member, and at least one connecting conduit connecting the first conduit and the second conduit, wherein a circumference of the second conduit may be formed larger than a circumference of the first conduit. In one embodiment of the present invention, The ventilation member comprises a first conduit including a first end portion and a first end portion, an inlet connected to the first conduit extending from the first end portion and the first end portion, a second conduit including a second end portion and a second end portion, an outlet connected to the second conduit extending from the second end portion and the second end portion, and at least one connecting conduit connecting the first conduit and the second conduit, wherein a circumference of the second conduit may be formed larger than a circumference of the first conduit.

[0008] According to one embodiment disclosed in the present document, an electronic device may include a ventilation structure that slowly allows air to pass between the inside and outside of a microphone to achieve air pressure equilibrium between the inside and outside of the microphone, and controls sound from a speaker transmitted to the microphone through a partition wall that segments a conduit through which air is vented. Accordingly, the occurrence of echo due to sound from the speaker leaking into the microphone during a call can be minimized, and call performance can be improved when two callers speak simultaneously.

These various types of communication modules can be integrated into a single component (e.g., a single chip) or implemented as multiple separate components (e.g., multiple chips). The wireless communication module (192) can verify or authenticate the electronic device (101) within a communication network such as the first network (198) or the second network (199) by using subscriber information (e.g., an international mobile subscriber identity (IMSI)) stored in the subscriber identification module (196).

In such a case, the waterproof member (300) may experience flatness imbalance. The flatness imbalance of the waterproof member (300) may cause changes in microphone sound quality. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the electronic device (200) may achieve air pressure equilibrium between the first space (1000h) of the guide member (3000) and the second space (1000H) outside the guide member (3000) through the breathable member (600). For example, since the first space (1000h) has a smaller volume than the second space (1000H), it may have a relatively higher pressure than the second space (1000H). Therefore, a flow of air (e.g., fluid) may be induced from the first space (1000h) to the second space (1000H) through the breathable member. In addition, by guiding the fluid from the second space (1000H) to the first space (1000h) through the breathable member (600), the energy may be gradually lowered, thereby reducing the echo phenomenon.

In one embodiment, air introduced into the second conduit (612) may preferentially move through the connecting conduit (620) to the second path (622) of the first conduit (611) having a large angle with the connecting conduit (620). In one embodiment, air moving through the second path (622) of the first conduit (611) may be reflected through the 1-1 end portion (6111) and may be directed to the first path (621) of the first conduit (611). In this case, air directed to the first path (621) of the first conduit (611) may be directed to the first path (621) of the first conduit (611) with relatively lower energy through the 1-1 end portion (6111).In one embodiment, a first passage (630) connected to an inlet (600h) may be arranged in the first path (621) of the first conduit (611). In one embodiment, air moving through the first path (621) of the first conduit (611) may be reflected at the first-second end (6112) and directed to the second path (622) or the first passage (630) of the first conduit (611).

In one embodiment, the inlet (600h) may be connected to the first space (1000h) formed through the microphone module (500) and the waterproof member (300).

[0179] In one embodiment, referring to FIGS. 8A and 8D , the plurality of conduits (610) may include at least one closed-loop conduit (640). In one embodiment, when air introduced into the inlet (600h) or outlet (600H) passes through the closed-loop conduit (640), the energy of the air may be reduced. In addition, the closed-loop conduit (640) may contribute to inducing a gentle diffusion of air pressure and reducing acoustic interference within the housing (210) by restricting the movement of air within the circulation path.

[0180] In one embodiment, referring to FIGS. 5A and 5B, the second space (1000H), which is an external space of the housing (210), and the first space (1000h), which connects the sound hole (210h) of the housing (210) and the microphone hole (500h) of the microphone module (500), can be ventilated by air through a breathable member (600). In one embodiment, air can be slowly ventilated between the first space (1000h) and the second space (1000H) through the breathable member (600). In one embodiment, air pressure equilibrium can be achieved between the first space (1000h) and the second space (1000H) through the breathable member (600).

[0181] In one embodiment, referring to FIGS. 8A to 10C, the energy of the air can be lowered through a partition wall (650), a closed-loop conduit (640), or a plurality of conduits (610). For example, sound output from a speaker module (not shown) located in a second space (1000H) can be introduced into a plurality of conduits (610) through an outlet (600H) of a breathable member (600). The sound output from the speaker module can be emitted into an inlet (600h) through the plurality of conduits (610). The sound of the speaker module emitted into the inlet (600h) can have lower energy than before being introduced into the outlet (600H). For example, the energy of the sound of the speaker module can be reduced as it moves toward the inlet (600h) as it passes through the plurality of conduits (610) connecting the inlet (600h) and the outlet (600H). When sound energy is reduced, the sound volume can be reduced. Accordingly, the degree to which sound output from the speaker module is transmitted to the microphone module (500) can be alleviated or reduced. Accordingly, in a call situation, the echo phenomenon caused by sound output from the speaker module being transmitted to the microphone module (500) can be alleviated or reduced.

[0182] In one embodiment, referring to FIGS. 8A to 10C, noise (e.g., sound output from a speaker module (not shown) or sound generated from internal components of an electronic device (e.g., electronic device (200) of FIG. 2 or electronic device (400) of FIG. 4)) generated in the second space (1000H) may be introduced into the plurality of conduits (610) through the outlet (600H). In one embodiment, the energy of the noise generated in the second space (1000H) may be reduced as it passes through the plurality of conduits (610), the connecting conduits (620), and / or the closed-loop conduit (640). In one embodiment, the degree to which noise generated in the second space (1000H) is introduced into the microphone module (500) may be reduced as it passes through the plurality of conduits (610), the connecting conduits (620), and / or the closed-loop conduit (640).
