Separated Speaker Audio Paths for Reduced Interference
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing electronic devices face challenges in effectively transmitting audio from speakers to the outside while maintaining audio quality and minimizing interference.
Innovation Solution
The electronic device incorporates a supporting member with separate first and second regions, featuring a speaker with first and second audio holes, and separate audio paths extending from these holes to the outside, ensuring distinct transmission paths for audio output.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a single audio path is used to transmit audio from the speaker to the outside, then the device structure is simple, but audio quality and interference reduction are compromised
Solution Approach 1:
The audio transmission system is divided into multiple separate audio paths (first audio path and second audio path) that are spatially separated and extend in different directions from the speaker. This segmentation allows each path to transmit audio independently, reducing interference and improving overall audio quality while maintaining manageable structural complexity through modular design
2Length of moving object
If audio paths are extended longer to improve sound projection, then audio transmission distance increases, but interference and loss of audio quality increase
Solution Approach 1:
Instead of using a single long audio path that would cause interference, the system segments the audio transmission into multiple shorter, separate paths. Each path extends audio in a different direction with controlled length, achieving adequate sound projection while minimizing the harmful effects of long-path interference and audio quality degradation
3Reliability
If multiple audio holes are created on the speaker surface, then audio transmission capability improves, but manufacturing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The speaker surface is segmented with multiple audio holes (first audio hole and second audio hole) positioned at different locations. Each hole serves as an independent audio output point connected to separate audio paths, improving overall audio transmission capability and directional sound distribution while maintaining standard manufacturing processes for creating multiple holes in speaker components

AI summary
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a support member including a first region and a second region spaced apart from the first region, a speaker at least partially disposed in the first region, a first audio hole disposed on a surface of the speaker, a second audio hole, disposed on the surface of the speaker, separated from the first audio hole, a first audio path extending within the first region from the first audio hole to transmit an audio outputted from the speaker through the first audio hole to an outside of the electronic device, and a second audio path extending from the second audio hole within the first region to the second region to transmit an audio outputted from the speaker through the second audio hole to the outside of the electronic device, the second audio path separated from the first audio path.
