Display Device Top Sound Hole Wall Structure
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional display devices with woofers often have their sound holes oriented towards the back or bottom, which can result in bass effects being blocked by objects behind the device, thereby reducing the effectiveness of the sound output.
Innovation Solution
The display device features a back cover with sound holes on its top side and an inner wall structure that encloses the woofer, guiding the sound output through an opening to the top side, minimizing obstruction and enhancing sound reception.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of manufacture
If the sound holes are oriented towards the back or bottom side, then the woofer structure is simple, but the bass effect is easily blocked by objects behind the display device
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the sound output direction from the traditional back/bottom orientation to the top side of the display device. By forming sound holes on the top side of the back cover and using a wall structure to guide sound upward, the invention utilizes the vertical dimension to redirect bass output away from objects behind the device, effectively solving the blockage problem while maintaining structural simplicity
2Object-affected harmful factors
If the sound holes are oriented towards the top side with a wall structure, then the bass effect is less blocked by objects, but the woofer structure becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
The back cover serves multiple functions: it protects internal components, provides structural support, and acts as a sound guide structure. The wall structure extending from the back cover integrates the sound guidance function into an existing component, avoiding the need for separate sound guiding parts and minimizing overall structural complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The wall structure utilizes the vertical space within the casing by extending upward from the back cover. This three-dimensional arrangement guides sound in the vertical dimension without requiring additional horizontal space or complex external structures, achieving effective sound direction with minimal added complexity
Applied Scientific Principles
This section explains which scientific principles are used to turn an abstract innovation direction into a practical engineering solution.
Function Achieved in This Case
This configuration allows for improved sound output from the woofer by directing it towards the top, where there are fewer obstructions, thereby enhancing the overall sound effect for the user.
Implementation Method 1
the wall structure encloses the woofer, such that the sound outputted by the woofer is guided to the sound holes through the opening of the wall structure

AI summary
A display device includes a casing, a display module and a woofer. The casing includes a back cover. A top side of the back cover has a plurality of sound holes formed thereon. A wall structure extends from an inner surface of the back cover. An opening of the back cover communicates with the sound holes. The display module is disposed in the casing. The woofer is disposed in the casing and located between the display module and the back cover. The wall structure encloses the woofer to guide a sound outputted by the woofer to the sound holes through the opening.
