Aspects of the subject technology relate to electronic devices having speakers and airflow sensors for the speakers. In one or more implementations, the airflow sensor may be formed, in part, by a mesh structure that spans a port in a housing of the electronic device. In one or more implementations, the airflow sensor may be formed, in part, by an exposed portion of a conductive trace of the speaker.

A monitor speaker assembly for includes a drum shell. A plurality of first lugs is each of the first lugs is coupled to the drum shell. A mesh screen is attachable to the drum shell and the mesh screen is comprised of a fluid permeable material to pass sound through the mesh screen. A speaker is disposed within the drum shell to emit audible sounds outwardly from the drum shell. A receiver is coupled to the drum shell and a tripod is insertable into the receiver on the drum shell thereby facilitating the drum shell to elevated. In this way the drum shell can direct the speaker toward a drummer thereby facilitating the drummer to hear audible sounds emitted by the speaker.

A metallic product such as an audio speaker cover and a related method of manufacturing that has a surface with a cloth-like appearance, yet allows the passage of sound. The metallic audio speaker cover has a base of expanded metal with polygonal openings or woven wire through which the sound may pass, the openings being defined by filaments that provide structural strength; a pretreatment film that adheres to the expanded metal base, and one or more multi-color powder coating films that adhere to the pretreatment film. In some embodiments, the film also has anti-microbial properties.

A camera system includes an internal loudspeaker assembly for emitting sound waves from the interior of the camera body to the exterior of the camera body through external ports using internal electronic components. Some components of the loudspeaker assembly are sensitive to wet conditions and are protected from the environment by a membrane. The membrane and its support structures are configured to allow the sound waves to translate through the membrane and external to the camera body in both wet and dry environments. The loudspeaker assembly includes a support structure that prevents the membrane from deforming to the point of breaking or to the point of contacting the loudspeaker when submerged.

This application is directed to a display assistant device that acts as a voice-activated user interface device. The display assistant device includes a base, a screen and a speaker. The base is configured for sitting on a surface. The screen has a rear surface and is supported by the base at the rear surface. A bottom edge of the screen is configured to be held above the surface by a predefined height, and the base is substantially hidden behind the screen from a front view of the display assistant device. The speaker is concealed inside the base and configured to project sound substantially towards the front view of the display assistant device.

A sound component assembly includes: a sealing portion provided in a sound passage connected to a sound hole of an electronic device to surround a portion of the sound passage and contact at least a portion of a printed circuit board (PCB) having a sound module mounted thereon; and a cover portion disposed to face the PCB outside the sealing portion, wherein the sealing portion may include a first material, the cover portion may include a second material, and the second material may have a greater hardness than a hardness of the first material.

Various implementations include earphone cushions and related headsets. In particular aspects, an earphone cushion includes: a body including a front surface configured to engage or surround an ear of a user, an outer side surface, an inner side surface opposing the outer side surface, and a rear surface opposing the front surface; a cover over a portion of the body, the cover including an outside radiating surface for contacting at least a portion of the user's head, wherein the cover includes a set of ports along at least one of (i) the inner side surface, (ii) the rear surface, or (iii) a junction between the inner side surface and the rear surface; and an acoustic mesh covering at least one port in the set of ports.

A communications device is described that may include a system housing, a microphone array, a loudspeaker, and a loudspeaker housing. The loudspeaker housing is configured to minimize acoustic coupling between the loudspeaker and the microphone array, and at least a portion of the loudspeaker housing is positioned outside of the system housing. The loudspeaker housing may include a plurality of loudspeaker housing mounts. The loudspeaker housing may include first and second halves which may have a gasket between them. The gasket between the first half and the second half of the loudspeaker housing may be configured to dampen vibrations.

A waveguide assembly for guiding sound includes a chassis that provides a cavity configured to receive sound propagating in a forwards direction along a primary axis of the waveguide assembly; a fixed waveguide that is fixed with respect to the chassis and positioned on the primary axis of the waveguide assembly, wherein the fixed waveguide is spaced apart from the chassis and is configured to guide sound received by the cavity through at least one opening formed between the fixed waveguide element and the chassis; a moveable waveguide that is moveable with respect to the chassis between: a standby position in which the moveable waveguide is configured to obstruct the at least one opening and form a forward-facing surface of the waveguide assembly; an operational position in which the moveable waveguide is configured to allow sound to exit the cavity through the at least one opening.

A speaker device is provided. The speaker device may include a circuit housing, an ear hook, a rear hook, and a speaker assembly. The circuit housing may be configured to accommodate a control circuit or a battery. The ear hook may be connected to one end of the circuit housing and at least a part of the ear hook being covered by a first housing sheath. The rear hook may be connected to the other end of the circuit housing and at least a part of the rear hook being covered by a second housing sheath. The first housing sheath and the second housing sheath may cover at least a part of a periphery of the circuit housing from two ends of the circuit housing, respectively. The speaker assembly may include an earphone core and a core housing for accommodating the earphone core.
