As consumers increasingly emphasize the sound quality of electronic devices, especially the bass effect, dual-cavity speakers have become an increasingly mainstream design in electronic devices. The sound cavity of the double-sound-cavity loudspeaker is divided into a front sound cavity and a rear sound cavity, and the front sound cavity and the rear sound cavity are completely separated; the back sound cavity directly influences the sound effect of the dual-sound-cavity loudspeaker, and theoretically, if the back sound cavity is completely sealed and the volume is larger, the bass effect is better; however, the electronic devices are becoming thinner and thinner, and the space occupied by each component is extremely limited, which makes the design of the rear sound cavity more and more difficult. The present application provides embodiments of a rear sound cavity assembly that can increase the volume of the rear sound cavity, thereby improving the low frequency characteristics of the sound and making the sound more pleasant to hear.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a dual-tone-cavity speaker in an electronic device. The dual-cavity speaker 10 includes a speaker 11 and a cavity wall 12.
The speaker 11 is accommodated in a space surrounded by the sound cavity enclosing wall 12, and the space is divided into two spaces, wherein the space with a larger volume is the rear sound cavity 13, wherein the space with a smaller volume is the front sound cavity 14, and the rear sound cavity 13 is completely separated from the front sound cavity 14, so as to avoid the mutual interference and offset of front and rear sounds to cause small sound, meanwhile, the rear sound cavity 13 is completely sealed as far as possible, so as to avoid the occurrence of leakage to cause low-frequency attenuation, and the part of the sound cavity enclosing wall 12 corresponding to the front sound cavity 14 is provided with a front sound cavity sound outlet 15, so as to transmit the sound generated by the speaker 11.
Taking the musical sound as an example, the rear cavity 13 mainly affects the low frequency part of the musical sound, and the front cavity 14 mainly affects the high frequency part of the musical sound; the low frequency part of the music sound has a great influence on the sound quality, and generally, the lower frequency peak in a frequency response curve is more left, the more prominent the bass is, so that the music sound is subjectively perceived to be relatively pleasant. Theoretically, when designing the back cavity 13 of the dual cavity speaker 10, the volume of the back cavity 13 should be as large as possible, so that the low frequency wave peak in the frequency response curve is continuously shifted to the left, thereby continuously improving the low frequency characteristic of the music sound and making the music sound more pleasant to hear.
It can be understood that, when the dual chamber speaker 10 is applied to an electronic device, on one hand, since the size of the electronic device is fixed, the dual chamber speaker 10 contained therein cannot be infinite, that is, the volume of the back sound chamber 13 of the dual chamber speaker 10 cannot be infinite, and on the other hand, various components, such as a battery, a processor, an antenna, a speaker, etc., need to be contained inside the electronic device to achieve its rich functional applications, so that the inside of the electronic device is often "crowded", and the space left for the dual chamber speaker 10 is limited.
Therefore, when designing the dual-cavity speaker 10, it is necessary to fully utilize the limited space in the electronic device to increase the volume of the rear sound cavity 13 as much as possible, and simultaneously consider and avoid the influence of other elements on the sealing performance of the rear sound cavity 13, so as to improve the sound quality of the dual-cavity speaker 10, and further improve the experience effect of the user in terms of sound quality when using the electronic device.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of a rear sound cavity assembly provided in the present application. The rear cavity assembly 20 of the present embodiment includes a substrate 21, a first cavity wall member 22 and a second cavity wall member 23.
It should be understood that the enclosing wall member in this embodiment refers to a solid member with a certain thickness and height, two opposite sides of which are open, and a certain space inside, for example, it may be an annular member such as a circular ring, a square ring, etc., or it may be another solid member with an irregular shape, and is not limited herein.
The first and second sound cavity enclosing wall members 22 and 23 stand on the same side of the substrate 21. In the present embodiment, the first cavity wall member 22 and the second cavity wall member 23 are integrated with the substrate 21, for example, they may be injection molded into a single piece, so that the places where the first cavity wall member 22 and the second cavity wall member 23 are connected with the substrate 21 are completely sealed.
Alternatively, the first and second cavity wall members 22 and 23 and the substrate 21 may be separate members, for example, they may be separately injection-molded members, and then the first and second cavity wall members 22 and 23 and the substrate 21 are connected by a sealing member such as sealing foam.

It is to be understood that the rectangular bounding wall in the present embodiment may not be a strict rectangle whose four sides are all straight sides and perpendicular to each other, but may be a rectangle in general shape, in other words, the rectangular bounding wall may be provided according to the remaining space inside the electronic device, and may be an irregular shape such as a bent shape.
Optionally, there is a communication between the first and second sound cavity enclosure members 22 and 23, so that the first space 24 is communicated with the second space 25, that is, the first space 24 is indirectly communicated with the second space 25, although other communication manners are also possible, and the present invention is not limited thereto.
Optionally, the first space 24 has a volume greater than the volume of the second space 25 and is used to house a speaker assembly of the electronic device.
Referring collectively to fig. 2-4, fig. 4 is a cross-sectional schematic view of bridge member 26 of fig. 3.
The rear sound cavity assembly 20 further includes a bridge member 26, wherein the bridge member 26 includes two bridge abutments 261 standing on the substrate and a bridge 262 bridging the top ends of the two bridge abutments 261, and the bridge 262 is flush with the first sound cavity enclosing wall member 22 and the second sound cavity enclosing wall member 23.
Optionally, the bridge member 26 stands on the first space 24 in the first sonic chamber enclosure member 22, or the second space 25 in the second sonic chamber enclosure member 23, or the communication of the first space 24 and the second space 25.
In this embodiment, the bridge member 26 is located at one side of the second sound cavity wall member 23, and two ends of the bridge member are respectively connected to two opposite sidewalls of the second sound cavity wall member 23.
Specifically, the bridge member 26 stands in the second space 25 at a position close to the first space 24, and two bridge abutments 261 thereof are respectively connected to two opposite side walls of the second sound cavity enclosure member 23, and the first space 24 and the second space 25 are communicated at the bridge member 26.
Alternatively, bridge member 26 may lack two piers 261, i.e., bridge 262 directly bridges two opposite sidewalls of second sound cavity enclosure member 23.
Optionally, the bridge member 26 is of unitary construction with the second sound cavity enclosure member 23.
Referring collectively to fig. 2-5, fig. 5 is a schematic structural view of the sealing member 27 of fig. 2.
The rear sound cavity assembly 20 further includes a sealing member 27, and the sealing member 27 is attached to end surfaces of the first sound cavity enclosing wall member 22, the second sound cavity enclosing wall member 23, and the bridge member 26 away from the substrate 21.
Optionally, the sealing member 27 is a sealing foam, and the sealing foam is provided with openings 271 corresponding to the first space 24 and the second space 25.
Referring to fig. 2 to 6 together, fig. 6 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of an electronic device provided in the present application. The electronic device 30 of the present embodiment may be any device having a sound output function, for example: mobile phones, tablet computers, Personal Computers (PCs), notebook computers, in-vehicle devices, network televisions, wearable devices, and the like.
The electronic device 30 provided by the present application includes the rear sound cavity assembly 20 and the speaker assembly 31 described above in the embodiments of the present application.
The specific structure of the back sound cavity assembly 20 can refer to the description of the above embodiments, and is not described herein again.
In this embodiment, the first sound cavity enclosing wall member 22 is provided with a sound outlet (not shown), the speaker assembly 31 is located in the first space 24, and the sound outlet (not shown) of the speaker assembly 31 is abutted with the opening of the first sound cavity enclosing wall member 22 to transmit the sound generated by the speaker assembly 31, and the surrounding of the joint of the two is completely sealed, so that the first space 24 is completely separated from the front sound cavity (not shown) of the dual-sound-cavity speaker at the sound outlet, thereby preventing the front and rear sounds from interfering and canceling each other to cause a small sound.
The electronic device 30 further includes a cover plate 32, and the cover plate 32 covers an end surface of the sealing member 27 away from the substrate 21 to seal the first space 24 and the second space 25, as shown in fig. 7.
Further, the bridge member 26 is disposed along a gap 34 between the cover plate 32 and another component 33 in the electronic device, and the sealing member 27 is further attached to an end surface of the bridge member 26 away from the base plate 21 to seal the first space 24 and the second space 25 at the gap 34.
It is understood that, because the electronic device 30 has a limited internal space and needs to arrange and accommodate a large number of components, there is inevitably a situation where the components overlap and interfere with each other, and if the back sound cavity assembly 20 or its cover plate 32 interferes with another component 33, the sealing performance of the back sound cavity assembly 20 may not be sufficient.
For example, in the above embodiment, the second sound cavity enclosing wall member 23 is disposed around the first sound cavity enclosing wall member 22, so that the volume of the rear sound cavity assembly 20 is increased, but other elements disposed in the space where the second sound cavity enclosing wall member 23 is located need to be considered, as shown in fig. 8, a gap 34 is generated at the joint between the cover plate 32 and the other element 33, and when the cover plate 32 is attached to the end surface of the sealing member 27 far from the substrate 21 to seal the first space 24 and the second space 25, the gap 34 may cause the sealing performance of the first space 24 and the second space 25 to be poor, as shown in fig. 9.
In the present embodiment, when the bridge member 26 is used in the case shown in fig. 9, the bridge member abuts against the seal 27 corresponding to the slit 34 to ensure the sealing performance of the first space 24 and the second space 25, as shown in fig. 10.
Be different from prior art's condition, the back tone chamber subassembly that this application provided includes the base plate and stands on the first tone chamber enclosure component of base plate homonymy, second tone chamber enclosure component, first tone chamber enclosure component and second tone chamber enclosure component are connected, and first tone chamber enclosure component centers on the first space that forms and second tone chamber enclosure component centers on the second space intercommunication that forms, make first space and second space intercommunication form a bigger space through this kind of mode, the volume in back tone chamber has been increased to a certain extent, can improve the bass effect of sound, thereby make sound feel more pleasing to the ear, simultaneously, under the condition that keeps current electronic equipment inner member compact arrangement, the space in back tone chamber has been enlarged.
