Apparatus for generating sound by using car body

A vehicle which generates virtual engine sound, the vehicle comprising:

• a vehicle information collecting module collecting information about an operation of an engine of the vehicle;
• a sound processing module producing a virtual engine sound signal based on the collected information about the operation of the engine of the vehicle;
• an amplification module amplifying the produced virtual engine sound signal;
• and
• a sound generator transmitting vibration generated based on the amplified virtual engine sound signal to a vehicle body of the vehicle,
• wherein the sound generator includes:
• a magnetic circuit generating vibration;
• a yoke contacting an upper surface of the magnetic circuit;
• an elastic member contacting at least a part of an upper surface of the yoke and performing vibration motion;
• a housing including an internal space formed as upper and lower sides of the housing are opened and lateral sides of the housing are closed;
• a coil receiving an alternating current signal provided from the outside, wherein the coil is positioned in the internal space of the housing;
• a vibration plate contacting at least a part of the upper surface of the yoke, and transmitting the vibration, which is generated by the magnetic circuit by the vibration of the yoke, to the vehicle body to allow at least a part of the vehicle body to generate sound;
• and
• a magnetic circuit guide contacting at least a part of each of the magnetic circuit, the yoke, the elastic member, and the vibration plate.
