Abstract

The present invention discloses a speaker module, comprising a housing and a speaker unit located in an inner cavity of the housing and dividing the inner cavity into a front acoustic cavity and a rear acoustic cavity separated from each other, wherein the housing is additionally provided with a pressure relief device configured to communicate the rear acoustic cavity with an external environment and implement an acoustic seal, the pressure relief device comprises a pressure relief hole extending through a thickness direction of the housing and provided with a gland on one side close to the rear acoustic cavity, and a pressure relief groove is disposed at a surface of the gland close to the pressure relief hole, one end of the pressure relief groove is connected with the pressure relief hole, the other end of the pressure relief groove is led out of an end of the gland, and the pressure relief groove and the pressure relief hole together make up a pressure relief passage of the rear acoustic cavity. The pressure relief grooves of the pressure relief devices of the speaker modules are arranged on the gland, which makes processing easier and can effectively improve the yield of the speaker module.

Claims (9)

1. A speaker module, comprising a housing and a speaker unit located in an inner cavity of the housing, wherein the speaker unit divides the inner cavity into a front acoustic cavity and a rear acoustic cavity separated from each other; and the housing is additionally provided with a pressure relief device configured to communicate the rear acoustic cavity with an external environment and implement an acoustic seal, the pressure relief device comprises a pressure relief hole extending through a thickness direction of the housing and provided with a gland on one side close to the rear acoustic cavity, a pressure relief groove is disposed at an end surface of the gland close to the pressure relief hole, one end of the pressure relief groove is connected with the pressure relief hole, the other end of the pressure relief groove is led out of an end of the gland, and the pressure relief groove and the pressure relief hole together make up a pressure relief passage of the rear acoustic cavity.

2. The speaker module according to claim 1 , wherein the pressure relief device is disposed on a separator configured to separate the front acoustic cavity from the rear acoustic cavity in the housing.

3. The speaker module according to claim 1 , wherein a plurality of pressure relief grooves is disposed on the gland.

4. The speaker module according to claim 1 , wherein the housing is provided with a plurality of pressure relief devices.

5. The speaker module according to claim 1 , wherein a cross section of the pressure relief grooves is rectangular, arc-shaped or triangular.
