Abstract
A portable computer with built-in type speakers is disclosed in which a speaker or speaker holder is mounted at inside a main body of a computer and a sounding part of the speaker is installed pointing in a direction toward the ground or support surface where a main body of the computer is placed. Since the speaker is installed at a lower portion of the main body of the computer and the sounding part of the speaker is installed directed toward the ground, a phenomenon that the sound discharge hole is interfered due to an external factor can be prevented and a sound quality is prevented from degradation.
Claims25
A portable computer with built-in type speakers, comprising:
- a first module that has an upper surface, a bottom surface opposing the upper surface and a front surface extending therebetween;
- a second module that has a display unit that displays data, wherein the second module is supported by the first module to rotate between a first position covering the upper surface of the first module and a second position exposing the upper surface of the first module;
- and
- a speaker mounted within the first module to face the bottom surface, wherein a blocking plate is installed between a sounding part of the speaker and sound discharge holes in order to prevent sound generated from the speaker from leaking outwardly, wherein the blocking plate is installed between the speaker and the bottom surface having a wedge-shape form tilted at the same angle as the angle at which the speaker is tilted, and wherein the blocking plate is fitted to a bottom case of the first module with upper and lower sides thereof opened.
A portable computer, comprising:
- a main body housing an input device and a main printed circuit board;
- and
- a speaker mounted inside the main body coupled to the main printed circuit board, wherein a sounding part of the speaker is installed pointing in a downward direction, wherein the main body has a recess on a bottom surface, and wherein the speaker is fixed inside the main body in a prescribed spaced relationship to the recess.
A portable computer, comprising:
- a main body housing a keyboard;
- a display body rotatably supported by the main body;
- and
- a speaker holder fixed inside the main body, wherein the speaker holder includes a speaker mount that attaches to a backside of a sound emitting portion of a speaker, wherein the speaker mount faces a bottom surface of the main body, wherein the main body has a recess on the bottom surface, and wherein the speaker holder is fixed inside the main body in a prescribed spaced relationship to the recess.
A method of assembling a portable computer, comprising:
- providing a cover body with a display unit rotatably supported by a main body that includes a main circuit board;
- installing a speaker in the main body facing a bottom surface of the main body;
- and
- installing a blocking plate between the speaker and the bottom surface of the main body having a prescribed-shape form tilted at the same angle as the angle at which the speaker is tilted, wherein the blocking plate is fitted to the bottom surface of the main body with upper and lower sides thereof opened.
