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.
Claims20
An apparatus comprising:
- a case;
- a display assembly;
- a flexible element positioned between the display assembly and the case and configured 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 at least one of a haptic effect or a tactile effect;
- and
- an internal cavity below the display, wherein electronic components of the apparatus are located at the internal cavity;
- wherein driving the at least one vibrating element allows the flexible element to control the movement of the display assembly;
- wherein an interaction of the case, the display assembly, the flexible element, and the at least one vibrating element at least partially form a speaker;
- and
- wherein the apparatus comprises at least one of a transceiver or a receiver.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a case;
- a display assembly;
- a gasket positioned between the display assembly and the case and configured to control the movement of the display assembly;
- at least one vibrating element configured to actuate the display assembly to generate at least one of acoustic waves or at least one of a haptic effect or a tactile effect;
- and
- an internal cavity below the display assembly, wherein electronic components of the apparatus are located at the internal cavity;
- wherein driving the at least one vibrating element allows the gasket to control the movement of the display assembly;
- wherein an interaction of the case, the display assembly, the gasket, and the at least one vibrating element at least partially form a speaker;
- and
- wherein the apparatus comprises at least one of a transceiver or a receiver.
