Abstract
An apparatus is described, the apparatus including a case, a display assembly, a chassis connected to the display assembly, a suspension component between the display assembly and the case, wherein the suspension component is configured to allow the display assembly to move relative to the case, at least one vibrating element configured to actuate the chassis to move the display assembly relative to the case to generate at least one of acoustic waves or haptic/tactile effect, and an internal cavity below the display, wherein electronic components of the apparatus are located at the internal cavity.
Claims22
An apparatus comprising:
- a case;
- a display assembly;
- a suspension component between the display assembly and the case, wherein the suspension component is configured to control movement of the display assembly and allow the display assembly to move relative to the case;
- at least one vibrating element configured to move the display assembly relative to the case to generate at least one of:
- acoustic waves or haptic/tactile effect;
- and
- an internal cavity below the display, wherein electronic components of the apparatus are located at the internal cavity;
- wherein an interaction of the case, the display assembly, the suspension component, and the at least one vibrating element at least partially form a speaker.
An apparatus comprising:
