| 20160073182 | EARPIECE INTEGRATED MAGNETIC SHIELDING FOR MITIGATING INGRESS OF MAGNETIC PARTICLES - This document describes methods and apparatus for reducing a magnetic field emitted by an earpiece assembly from extending substantially outside a device associated with the earpiece assembly. Where the earpiece assembly is susceptible to ingress of magnetically attractable particles into the earpiece assembly such a reduction can prolong an operational life of the earpiece assembly. By insert molding magnetically permeable materials throughout an enclosure that surrounds and supports a permanent magnet of the earpiece assembly, a portion of a magnetic field emanating from the permanent magnet that extends outside the device can be substantially reduced or redirected so that the magnetic field ceases to draw the magnetically attractable particles into the earpiece assembly. | 03-10-2016 |
| 20160080845 | Acoustic Device with Curved Passive Radiators - An acoustic device includes an acoustic assembly that defines a first acoustic volume. The acoustic assembly includes at least one passive radiator in acoustic communication with the first acoustic volume. A first electro-acoustic driver is configured to acoustically energize the first acoustic volume so as to drive the piston in oscillatory motion. The acoustic device also includes a housing within which the acoustic assembly is disposed. The housing has a curved inner surface. The passive radiator has a curvature which conforms to the curvature of the curved inner surface of the housing so as to reduce unused space between the at least one passive radiator and the curved inner surface of the housing. | 03-17-2016 |
| 20160100235 | ELECTRONIC DEVICE WITH LOW FREQUENCY AUDIO OUTPUT CAPABILITY - An electronic device capable of outputting low frequency sound includes a hollow housing, and a speaker assembly, a first securing member, a second securing member secured to the second securing member, and a vibration plate received in the housing. The vibration plate is secured to the first securing member. The speaker assembly is secured to the second securing member, and includes a speaker and a buffer secured to the speaker. A side of the buffer away from the speaker is in contact with the vibration plate and imparts the vibration required for audio output to the vibration plate. | 04-07-2016 |
| 20160112783 | SPEAKER RETAINER - A speaker retainer configured for attachment to a speaker enclosure and further configured for contact with a speaker cone assembly is provided. The speaker cone assembly has a surface area. The speaker retainer includes a circumferential segment extending from an inner circumferential surface to an outer circumferential surface. The circumferential segment has an inner major surface configured for contact with the speaker cone assembly. The inner major surface has a surface area. The surface area of the inner major surface of the circumferential segment forms a ratio with the surface area of the cone assembly in a range of from 10:1 to about 50:1. | 04-21-2016 |
| 20160119697 | AUDIO EQUIPMENT AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE - An audio equipment includes a housing configured to be mounted in an enclosure of an electronic device, an audio device, and a supporting panel mounted in the enclosure. The supporting panel defines a cavity. The audio device is mounted in the cavity. The housing defines a plurality of holes. A diaphragm of the audio device faces the housing and is aligned with the holes. The holes communicate with the cavity. An electronic device is also provided. | 04-28-2016 |
| 20160119698 | LOUDSPEAKER - Loudspeaker includes a voice coil, a protecting cover attached to the voice coil, a washer, and a voice cavity case. The voice cavity top case includes a top panel and a resisting panel coupled to the top panel. The revisiting panel is sandwiched between the washer and the voice coil. A top surface of the top panel is aligned with a top surface of the protecting cover. | 04-28-2016 |
