Abstract:
An electronic device having a speaker device. The electronic device may include a housing, a speaker device disposed inside the housing, and a sound generation circuit electrically connected to the speaker device. The speaker device may include a sound generation plate movable in a first direction, and a sound reflection construction facing the sound generation plate to form a space between the sound generation plate and the sound reflection construction. The sound generation plate includes a first surface disposed substantially at a center of the sound generation plate, the first surface having a convex shape when viewed from inside the space, and the sound reflection construction includes a second surface substantially aligned with the first surface along an axis of the housing, the second surface having a concave shape when viewed from inside the space.
Abstract:
A mobile apparatus and control method thereof are provided, which includes an audio data signal input unit arranged to receive an audio data signal. An audio output unit is arranged to output an audio signal according to the received audio data signal within a first reproduction frequency. A balanced armature is arranged to output an audio signal according to the received audio data signal within a second reproduction frequency band. The second reproduction frequency band is different from the first reproduction frequency band. An audio signal processor is arranged to adjust the first reproduction frequency band and the second reproduction frequency band such that a combination of the first reproduction frequency band and the second reproduction frequency band is wider than the first reproduction frequency band and the second reproduction frequency band individually.
Abstract:
A docking station for sound amplification and sound quality enhancement is provided. The docking station includes a support structure for holding a mobile terminal having an internal speaker to sustain the posture of the mobile terminal, and a body for supporting the support structure, and for physically contacting the speaker to increase the volume of sound output from the speaker. The body includes a collecting hole for contacting the speaker to collect sound waves, and a guide hole that extends from the collecting hole through the body to the outside along an extension direction, is divided into two branches within the body to guide the collected sound waves along different paths, and has a horn shape whose cross section increases along the extension direction. Hence, the docking station can increase the volume of audible sound and sound quality without separate supply of power.
