    Abstract: A portable electronic device may include a housing, a display at least partially within the housing, a transparent cover over the display, and a battery at least partially within the housing. The battery may include a battery cell, a pouch encasing the battery cell, and a gas release relief system including a gas-permeable membrane configured to prevent liquid from escaping the pouch and a valve configured to selectively release gas from the pouch. The device may also include a processing system configured to, in a first mode of operation, cause the valve to open to allow gas to be released from the pouch, and, in a second mode of operation, cause the valve to close.

    Abstract: An electronic device may have a housing in which a display and other components are mounted. Audio components such as a speaker and microphone and other electrical components may be mounted in an interior portion of the housing. A housing port may be formed from one or more openings that pass through the housing. The audio component or other component may be aligned with the housing port. A shutter may be interposed between the audio component and the housing port. The shutter may have an electrically controlled positioner that is used to position a movable shutter member. The shutter may be closed by placing the shutter member in a position in which the housing openings are blocked, thereby preventing intrusion of contaminants into the interior portion of the housing. The shutter may be opened by placing the shutter member in a position in which the housing openings are unblocked, thereby allowing sound to pass through the housing port.

    Abstract translation: 电子设备可以具有其中安装显示器和其他部件的壳体。 诸如扬声器和麦克风和其他电气部件的音频部件可以安装在壳体的内部部分中。 壳体端口可以由穿过壳体的一个或多个开口形成。 音频组件或其他组件可以与外壳端口对齐。 可以在音频组件和外壳端口之间插入快门。 挡板可以具有用于定位可动挡板部件的电控定位器。 可以通过将挡板部件放置在壳体开口被阻挡的位置来关闭挡板,从而防止污染物侵入壳体的内部。 可以通过将挡板部件放置在壳体开口不被阻挡的位置来打开挡板,从而允许声音通过外壳端口。
