First Claim
1. A docking station comprising:
- a support structure for holding an electronic device having a first internal speaker to sustain the posture of the electronic device; and
a body for supporting the support structure, and for physically contacting a bottom surface of the electronic device placed on an upper surface of the body,wherein the body comprises;
a collecting hole for contacting the first internal speaker of the electronic device to collect sound waves, anda guide hole that extends from the collecting hole through an inside of the body to an outside of the body,wherein the guide hole has at least two branches within the inside of the body to guide the collected sound waves along different paths that extend to at least one side surface of the body and has a pre-designed shape.

Abstract
A docking station for sound amplification and sound quality enhancement is provided. The docking station includes a support structure for holding a mobile terminal having an internal speaker to sustain the posture of the mobile terminal, and a body for supporting the support structure, and for physically contacting the speaker to increase the volume of sound output from the speaker. The body includes a collecting hole for contacting the speaker to collect sound waves, and a guide hole that extends from the collecting hole through the body to the outside along an extension direction, is divided into two branches within the body to guide the collected sound waves along different paths, and has a horn shape whose cross section increases along the extension direction. Hence, the docking station can increase the volume of audible sound and sound quality without separate supply of power.
