Abstract
An electronic apparatus comprises a housing exposed outside, a piezoelectric vibration element located inside the housing a vibration part having the piezoelectric vibration element in a main surface thereof to be vibrated by the piezoelectric vibration element to generate a sound, and a shock-absorbing part being in contact with the main surface and away from a peripheral edge of the main surface, the piezoelectric vibration element intervening between the shock-absorbing part and the peripheral edge.
Claims15
An electronic apparatus comprising:
- a housing;
- a piezoelectric vibration element located inside the housing;
- a vibration part that includes the piezoelectric vibration element on a main surface thereof and is vibrated by the piezoelectric vibration element to generate a sound;
- and
- a shock-absorbing part that is in contact with the main surface and away from at least one peripheral edge of the main surface,
- wherein the piezoelectric vibration element is positioned, on the main surface, between the shock-absorbing part and the at least one peripheral edge of the main surface, and
- wherein, in a plan view, both the piezoelectric vibration element and the shock-absorbing part are positioned between the at least one peripheral edge and a center of the vibration part, and the shock-absorbing part is positioned in a side of the center of the vibration part with respect to piezoelectric vibration element.
