  • Patent number: 10412476
    Abstract: An electronic device is disclosed that may include a housing including a first surface facing in a first direction, a second surface facing in a second direction, and a third surface, the first and second direction being generally opposed to one another, the third surface being positioned between the first and second surfaces and being generally orthogonal relative to the first and second directions; at least one speaker arranged in at least a part of the housing; and a speaker enclosure protecting the speaker. The speaker enclosure may include an upper speaker enclosure arranged to face the first surface; and a lower speaker enclosure arranged to face the second surface, and confronting the upper speaker enclosure. Each of the upper and lower speaker enclosures may be at least partially made with magnetic materials that shield a magnetic flux generated in the speaker.
