Abstract: A portable and waterproof audio reproduction device is provided, comprising a case having a base and a lid defining an internal volume, and further including a seal between the base and the lid sufficient to prevent water from entering the internal volume when the lid is closed onto the base. The case includes control electronics within the internal volume, wherein the control electronics are adapted to receive an audio signal from an audio device located either inside the case or outside the case. The case also includes a battery, electrically connected to the control electronics. Surface transducers are electrically connected to the control electronics and operatively attached to an internal surface of the case, wherein the surface transducers are capable of receiving the audio signal from the audio device and causing vibration of the internal surface in response to the audio signal. The control electronics comprise a printed circuit board having additional electronic features which are desirable to the operation of the device, such as a line-in input for receiving an audio signal, a charging input for charging the battery from an external power source, a power switch, a switch to activate an on-board wireless networking protocol such as Bluetooth®, an amplifier for amplifying the audio signal, and magnetically responsive switches for controlling playback and volume.

Abstract translation: 提供一种便携式和防水音频再现装置，其包括具有限定内部容积的底座和盖子的壳体，并且还包括在基座和盖子之间的密封件，足以防止当盖子关闭时水被进入内部容积 的基地。 该情况包括内部体积内的控制电子装置，其中控制电子装置适于从位于壳体内部或外部的音频装置接收音频信号。 壳体还包括电连接到控制电子器件的电池。 表面换能器电连接到控制电子装置并且可操作地附接到壳体的内表面，其中表面换能器能够从音频装置接收音频信号，并响应于音频信号引起内表面的振动。 控制电子器件包括具有额外的电子特征的印刷电路板，其对于器件的操作是期望的，例如用于接收音频信号的线路输入输入，用于从外部电源对电池充电的充电输入，功率 开关，用于激活车载无线网络协议的开关，例如Bluetooth®，用于放大音频信号的放大器，以及用于控制播放和音量的磁响应开关。
