Electronic device including sound unit
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a first housing, a second housing, a display, and a sound unit configured to output or receive a sound, the sound unit being disposed in the second housing such that the sound is radiated in a first direction through a second side surface in an open state and radiated in a second direction different from the first direction along a first side surface in a closed state.
1 . An electronic device, comprising:
a first housing comprising a first surface and a first side surface connected to the first surface;
a second housing comprising a second surface and a second side surface connected to the second surface, the second housing being configured to move relative to the first housing between a closed state in which the second surface faces the first surface and the second side surface faces the first side surface, and an open state in which the second surface moves along the first surface and the second side surface moves along the first side surface;
a display disposed on an opposite side of the first surface and an opposite side of the second surface, the display having a first area in the closed state and having a second area greater than the first area in the open state; and
a sound unit configured to output or receive a sound, the sound unit being disposed in the second housing such that the sound is radiated in a first direction through the second side surface in the open state and radiated in a second direction different from the first direction along the first side surface in the closed state,
wherein the first housing further comprises a third surface disposed opposite the first surface and connected to the first side surface, and
wherein the third surface guides the sound radiated along the first side surface in the closed state.
2 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the second side surface comprises:
a first wall connected to the second surface; and
a second wall forming a gap through which the output sound passes, the second wall being separated from the first wall.
3 . The electronic device of claim 2 , wherein the gap comprises a slit extending along the second side surface.
4 . The electronic device of claim 1 ,
wherein the first housing further comprises a recess on the first side surface, and
wherein the recess guides the sound between the first side surface and the second side surface in the closed state.
5 . The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the third surface at least partially overlaps an edge area of the display.
6 . The electronic device of claim 1 ,
wherein the second housing further comprises a fourth surface disposed opposite the second surface and connected to the second side surface, and
wherein the fourth surface and the third surface are configured with a gap therebetween and guide the sound together.
7 . The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein the fourth surface at least partially overlaps an edge area of the display.
8 . The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein the third surface and the fourth surface are substantially parallel.
9 . The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein the fourth surface comprises a second top surface or a second bezel surface.
10 . The electronic device of claim 6 , wherein the fourth surface extends in a direction along at least a portion of a second inner side surface connected to the second surface.
11 . The electronic device of claim 1 ,
wherein the first housing further comprises an opening in the third surface, and
wherein the opening is configured to radiate the sound radiated along the first side surface to an outside or radiate an external sound of the electronic device along the first side surface to an inside of the electronic device, in the closed state.
