Description

{AUDIO RESONANCE DEVICE}

The present invention relates generally to portable devices, and more particularly to voice resonance devices that are externally applied to portable devices to enhance voice quality from portable devices.

Portable devices such as iPad, iPhone, or smart phone are gaining popularity today because of their convenience and high intelligence. For portable devices that emit voice signals, speakers are still the mainstream. However, in order to make the speaker sufficiently small to be able to emit audio for such a handheld device, holes are typically configured in the handheld device. Therefore, a portable device can not achieve a waterproof effect. On the other hand, a miniaturized speaker can not normally transmit a high quality voice signal.

Even with thin speakers aimed at solving previous problems, the manufacturing process is complex.

Thus, a voice resonance apparatus is provided herein for convenient application to portable devices to enhance voice quality without modification of the portable device.

The voice resonance apparatus comprises: a base member having a box shape having an open upper surface; A resonant element having a plurality of laminated ceramic layers, and at least two contact pieces of a top surface; A cover member for sealing the open top surface of the base member; And an end portion extending through the cover member to contact the contact piece of the resonant element and to contact the portable device to pick up the voice vibration from the portable device and to transmit the voice vibration to the resonance element And includes a plurality of elastic elements. The resonant element resonates with a voice oscillation, and the base member provides a resonance chamber, resulting in improved voice quality from the handheld device. Portable devices do not require any deformation, such as an aperture hole.

Preferably, the cover member has a plurality of openings respectively corresponding to the contact pieces of the resonant element, and each elastic element extends through the opening and is exposed to the outside of the base member.

Preferably, each resilient element includes a bend shaped contact section and an elongate section extending from the contact section.

The foregoing objects and summary provide only a brief introduction to the present invention. In order to fully appreciate these and other objects of the present invention, the following detailed description and claims should be read with reference to the accompanying drawings. Throughout the specification and drawings, the same reference numerals refer to the same or similar parts.

Many other advantages and features of the present invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from a review of the appended sheets of the drawings, which illustrate preferred structural embodiments, including the detailed description and principles of the invention.

The following description is merely a preferred embodiment, and is not intended to limit the scope, application or construction of the present invention in any way. Rather, the following description provides a convenient example for implementing a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Various changes to the embodiment described can be made in the function and arrangement of the elements described without departing from the scope of the present invention as set forth in the appended claims.

1 and 2, the voice resonance apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention mainly comprises a base member 1, a resonance element 2, a cover member 3, and a plurality of elastic elements 4 . The base member 1 includes a bottom surface 11 and a circumferential wall 12 surrounding the bottom surface 11. As shown in Fig. The resonant element 2 comprises a plurality of laminated ceramic layers and has at least two contact pieces 21 on its upper surface. The cover member (3) has at least two openings (31) arranged corresponding respectively to the contact pieces (21). Each resilient element 4 includes a contact section 41 having a curved shape and an extension section 42 extending from the contact section 41.

The resonance element 2 is positioned inside the base member 1 and the cover member 3 seals the open upper surface of the base member 1. [ Each resilient element 4 has a contact section 41 in contact with the contact piece 21 of the resonant element 2 and extends through the opening 31 of the cover member 3, And an extension section 42 which is exposed to the outside. Next, by attaching the voice resonance device A to a thin portable device such as an iPad or an iPhone, the contact section 41 picks up the voice vibration of the thin portable device, and transmits the voice vibration to the resonance element 2. [ The resonant element 2 resonates with a voice oscillation, and the base member 1 provides a resonance chamber so as to enhance the sound quality of the thin portable device. The thin portable device does not require any deformation such as an opening hole.

Each elastic element 4 has a contact section 41 in contact with the contact piece 21 and extends through the opening 31 of the cover member 3 as shown in Figure 3 and shown above, And has an extended section 42 which is exposed. The elasticity of each elastic element 4 results from its curved contact section 41 and when the cover member 3 seals the base member 1, So that the contact section 41 is firmly supported on the contact piece 21, so that the voice vibration is always received by the resonant element 2 properly.

Figure 4 depicts a scenario in which the device of the present invention is applied to a thin portable device. As shown, the voice resonance device A is conveniently attached to the smartphone 5 by, for example, an adhesive, and no deformation such as an aperture hole for the smartphone 5 is required.

FIG. 5 depicts a scenario in which a user uses a thin portable device on which the apparatus of the present invention is installed. As shown, the voice resonance apparatus A is attached to the smart phone 5 and resonates with the smart phone 5. [ Next, when the user keeps the smartphone 5 in close proximity to his ear, his ear canal (B) will provide additional resonance chambers, further enhancing voice quality. Unlike the known devices, the smartphone 5 in which the device of the present invention is installed does not have to be suitably adapted to the user's ear. With the apparatus of the present invention, the user can hear the voice signal from the smartphone 5 clearly as long as the smartphone 5 is held in the vicinity of his / her ears.

Although certain novel features of the present invention have been illustrated and described in the appended claims, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations in the form and details of the apparatus and the apparatus shown may be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention It is not intended to be limited to the details given above.
