发明名称 Systems and methods for controlling airflow into an electronic device
摘要 Systems and methods for controlling airflow into an electronic device are disclosed. An airflow control system may include an airflow impedance plate having one or more airflow impeding features. The airflow impedance plate may be a passive device that may be configured to impede forceful airflow therethrough and also allow sound to pass therethrough.

主权项 1. An airflow control system for controlling airflow to a microphone, the airflow control system comprising: a top plate having a top plate aperture; and an airflow impedance plate disposed below the top plate, the airflow impedance plate comprising a flat surface and a bendable flap partially separated from the flat surface and comprising a top face and a bottom face, the bendable flap operative to bend with respect to the flat surface and at least partially cover the top plate aperture with the top face when a force exerted by the airflow onto the bottom face exceeds a predetermined amount, wherein the bendable flap is further configured to remain substantially parallel with the flat surface to allow sound to pass through the top plate aperture.
