  • Patent number: 11988122
    Abstract: A vehicle comprising: an internal combustion engine having a cylinder and an exhaust manifold for collecting exhaust gases expelled from the cylinder; an exhaust system configured to channel exhaust gases along a flow path from the exhaust manifold to an exhaust outlet, the exhaust system comprising an exhaust component configured to cause an alteration to engine-generated sound pulses passing through the exhaust component; and a sound bypass device comprising a sound inlet port at a first location on the exhaust system before a first exhaust component along the flow path and a sound outlet port at a second location on the exhaust system after the first exhaust component along the flow path, the sound bypass device being configured to transmit engine-generated sound pulses from the sound inlet port to the sound outlet port whilst preventing flow of exhaust gases from the sound inlet port to the sound outlet port.

  • Patent number: 11543864
    Abstract: Systems of the present disclosure include an electronic device with a chassis and a speaker assembly. The speaker assembly can include a speaker support surrounding a speaker and coupled to the chassis via a spring element. The spring element can be monolithically formed with a main body of the speaker support and be configured to reduce transmission of vibrations from the speaker to the chassis. For example, the spring element can include an arm that extends within an opening of the main body to connect the main body to a fastener secured to the chassis. The spring element can be provided with features that facilitate wide distribution of loads and relative movement between the speaker assembly and the chassis.

  • Publication number: 20210062696
    Abstract: A vehicle comprising: an internal combustion engine having at least one cylinder, the internal combustion engine comprising an exhaust manifold for collecting exhaust gases expelled from the at least one cylinder; an exhaust system configured to channel exhaust gases along a flow path from the exhaust manifold to at least one exhaust outlet, the exhaust system comprising at least one exhaust component configured to act on exhaust gases flowing though the exhaust component and causing an alteration to engine-generated sound pulses passing through the exhaust component; and a sound bypass device comprising a sound inlet port at a first location on the exhaust system before a first exhaust component along the flow path and a sound outlet port at a second location on the exhaust system after the first exhaust component along the flow path, the sound bypass device being configured to transmit engine-generated sound pulses from the sound inlet port to the sound outlet port whilst preventing flow of exhaust gases fr
