ABSTRACT:
A waterproof ground audio speaker apparatus has a speaker housing having a cylindrical sidewall, one open end and a closed end. A hollow cylindrical inner housing has a pair of open ends and is attached to the speaker housing with its walls in a spaced relationship to the walls of the speaker housing to form a passageway between the walls of the inner housing and the walls of the speaker housing. A loud speaker is mounted in the hollow inner housing facing one open end thereof for directing acoustical energy out the open end of the speaker housing and directing the backwave of the speaker through the hollow inner housing and through the passageway between the inner housing and the speaker housing to the open end of the speaker housing. A rigid domed supporting cover extends over the opening of the speaker housing and a filter membrane cover covers the open end of the speaker housing to protect the inside of the speaker enclosure. Annular flanges on either end of the speaker housing helps support the speaker housing in the earth and a special filter membrane made of laminated polyester and a polytetrafluoroethylene (TEFLON) sheet which allows the acoustical energy to pass therethrough while blocking the ingress of fluids and other materials into the speaker housing.
