An electronic device includes a housing sidewall defining an opening and a display component, such as a display cover, disposed in the opening to form a gap between the housing sidewall and the display component. In at least one example, the cavity is defined by the sidewall and the display cover with the cavity in fluid communication with an external environment through the gap. In at least one example, an epoxy component at least partially defines the cavity and can be in direct contact with the housing sidewall.

Electronic device

A charging case for a pair of wireless earphones comprising: a housing having a peripheral wall that defines a shell; a frame insert coupled to the housing and extending into the shell, the frame insert having one or more insert walls that define first and second pockets sized and shaped to accept first and second wireless earphones, respectively, wherein the one or more insert walls cooperate with the housing primary wall to define a sealed chamber within the charging case; a lid coupled to the housing and operable between a closed position in which the lid covers the first and second pockets and an open position in which the first and second pockets are exposed; a speaker module disposed within the sealed chamber, the speaker module comprising an audio driver having a diaphragm that separates a front volume of the audio driver from a back volume of the audio driver and a speaker vent disposed within the back volume; one or more first openings formed through the peripheral wall and opening into the front volume, wherein the audio driver is positioned and aligned to emit sound into the front volume and through the one or more acoustic openings; and one or more second openings formed through the peripheral wall at a location spaced apart from the front volume, wherein at least one of the one or more second openings is an acoustic vent acoustically coupled to the back volume of the audio driver through the speaker vent ear tip.

Charging case for portable wireless listening device

A transducer assembly comprising: a magnet motor assembly comprising a first magnet plate and a second magnet plate arranged along an axis, a first support plate positioned between inward facing surfaces of the first magnet plate and the second magnet plate, a second support plate positioned along an outward facing surface of the first magnet plate to form a first magnetic gap between the first support plate and the second support plate, and a third support plate positioned along an outward facing surface of the second magnet plate to form a second magnetic gap between the first support plate and the third support plate; a voice coil coupled to the magnet motor assembly, wherein the voice coil is positioned around the first support plate and within the first magnetic gap and the second magnetic gap; and a piston coupled to the voice coil, wherein the piston is operable to vibrate in a direction parallel to the axis.
