Abstract
The present invention relates to a receiver assembly comprising a membrane structure comprising a frame portion and a moveable diaphragm, an assembly housing, and an acoustical venting opening connecting an interior volume of the receiver assembly to an exterior volume outside assembly housing, the acoustical venting opening forming an acoustical passage at least through the membrane structure.
Claims17
A receiver assembly comprising
- a membrane structure comprising a frame portion and a moveable diaphragm, wherein the frame portion and the moveable diaphragm of the membrane structure form an integrated structure without a joint, and wherein one or more openings exist between the frame portion and the moveable diaphragm of the membrane structure;
- an assembly housing;
- an acoustical venting opening connecting an interior volume of the receiver assembly to an exterior volume outside the assembly housing, the acoustical venting opening forming an acoustical passage at least through the membrane structure;
- and
- wherein the acoustical venting opening is formed by a foil layer secured to the membrane structure, the foil layer comprising an acoustical venting opening aligned with the acoustical venting opening in the membrane structure, or
- wherein the acoustical venting opening comprises a tube forming the acoustical passage through the membrane structure.
