Abstract

The present invention relates to a vibration exciter, which drives the vibration seat through a voice coil, transmits the vibration to the elastic frame, and then transmits the vibration to the support frame through a U-shaped vibration arm, and finally drives the laminated plate to vibrate. The main feature of this structure is that the rubber spring material of the previous similar product is replaced with an integrally formed elastic steel sheet. Since the spring sheet made of steel sheet material is more rigid than the spring sheet made of rubber material, only a smaller driving force is required to make the acceleration reach the required value. The mass block mounted on the vibration seat can make the resonant frequency of the product reach 180Hz, which is relatively sensitive to human touch, and the U-shaped vibration arm is connected between the elastic frame and the support frame, which effectively reduces the resonant frequency of the exciter and increases the amplitude of the exciter.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of loudspeakers, and in particular to a vibration exciter. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, the vibration exciter is a system mainly composed of a vibration generator, a control and measuring device and the necessary auxiliary equipment. It is a device that obtains mechanical vibration by utilizing electric, electro-hydraulic, piezoelectric or other principles. Its principle is to input the excitation signal into a coil placed in a magnetic field to drive the workbench connected to the coil.

[0003] In the patent document 201410837936.X, a tactile speaker and display assembly is provided with a bonding plate connected to a bracket that is bonded to a vibrating object, and a vibration system is provided on the bonding plate. A flexible frame that can vibrate is provided between the brackets, and a magnetic circuit system that cooperates with the vibration system is provided in the flexible frame. The structure of the tactile speaker is optimized to have a lower resonant frequency and a higher amplitude, which effectively increases the vibration sense of the speaker. The disadvantage is that the flexible frame is made of nylon 12 material. Due to the low structural stiffness and damping of nylon 12 material itself, it is easy to generate vibration with a large amplitude and difficult to attenuate. Long-term vibration will cause structural fatigue damage and shorten the life of the equipment. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a vibration exciter using a flexible frame made of steel sheet material. Due to the high rigidity of the steel sheet, a smaller driving force can be used to achieve the required acceleration value.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the vibration exciter designed by the present invention mainly includes a bonding plate, and support frames integrated with the bonding plate are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the bonding plate, a clearance hole is opened in the middle position of the bonding plate, a boss is set on the outer edge of the clearance hole, and a voice coil is fixed on the outer side of the boss; an elastic frame that can vibrate is set between the support frames, a bayonet hole is opened in the middle of the elastic frame, a vibration seat is clamped in the bayonet hole, the interior of the vibration seat is hollow and matched with the main and auxiliary magnets, and an extension is set at the bottom of the vibration seat, a mass block is sleeved on the top surface of the extension, and the upper surface of the mass block is tightly matched with the bottom surface of the elastic frame. This structure sets support frames on both sides of the bonding plate, and fixes an elastic frame between the vibration seat and the support frame, so that the vibration is transmitted to the support frame through the elastic frame, driving the vibration of the support frame, and driving the vibration of the display screen through the support frame.

[0006] A further solution is that the elastic frame is provided with U-shaped vibration arms connected to the support frame around it, a steel sheet fixing position is provided in the middle of the upper surface of the support frame, and a card slot is provided at each end of the steel sheet fixing position, and the plane where the steel sheet fixing position is located is higher than the plane where the card slot is located; the U-shaped vibration arms provided at both ends of the support frame are connected by a connecting plate, and an elastic undercut extends downward from the connection between the connecting plate and the U-shaped vibration arm, and the elastic undercut is vertically arranged between the connecting plate, and the elastic undercut is inserted into the card slot, and the bottom of the side walls adjacent to the elastic undercut at both ends of the support frame are provided with a space to avoid the elastic undercut, and a positioning hole is provided in the middle of the connecting plate, and the inner side of the positioning hole is engaged with the steel sheet fixing position. This structure connects the elastic frame to the support frame through the U-shaped vibration arm, the elastic undercut provided on the U-shaped vibration arm is inserted into the card slot on the upper surface of the support frame, and a connecting plate is provided between the U-shaped vibration arms on one side of the support frame, thereby reducing the resonant frequency of the exciter, increasing the amplitude of the exciter, and enhancing the connection strength between the U-shaped vibration arm and the support frame.

[0007] A further solution is to provide a plurality of bent portions around the inner edge of the bayonet hole in the middle of the elastic frame, and the inner walls of the bent portions are fixedly engaged with the outer wall of the vibration seat. This structure uses the bent portions provided in the elastic frame to set the vibration seat inside the bayonet hole in the elastic frame.

[0008] A further solution is to provide an open slot around the elastic frame at the connection with the U-shaped vibration arm. This structure provides an open slot around the elastic frame to avoid the U-shaped vibration arm, thereby preventing collision between the U-shaped vibration arm and the elastic frame.

[0009] A further solution is that the elastic undercut in the U-shaped vibration arm is glued to the outer wall of the support frame. This structural setting further adheres and fixes the U-shaped vibration arm to the outer wall of the support frame.

[0010] A further solution is to provide a buffer pad between the bottom surface of the connecting plate and the top surface of the support frame. The buffer pad is provided between the connecting plate and the support frame, and a slot is provided in the middle of the buffer pad that matches the shape of the steel sheet fixing position. This structural arrangement provides a buffer pad between the connecting plate and the support frame to prevent collision between the U-shaped vibration arm and the support frame.

[0011] A further solution is to use four U-shaped vibration arms, with the elastic frame, four U-shaped vibration arms, and connecting plate formed from a single piece of elastic steel. This structural configuration replaces the elastic frame with elastic steel, thereby reducing the loss of mechanical kinetic energy during vibration transmission.

[0012] The vibration exciter designed in the present invention drives the vibration seat through the voice coil, transmits the vibration to the elastic frame, and then transmits the vibration to the support frame through the U-shaped vibration arm, finally driving the laminated plate to vibrate. The main feature of this structure is that the rubber spring material of previous products of the same type is replaced with an integrally formed elastic steel sheet. Since the spring sheet made of steel sheet material is more rigid than the spring sheet made of rubber material, only a smaller driving force is required to make the acceleration reach the required value. The mass block mounted on the vibration seat can make the resonant frequency of the product reach 180Hz, which is relatively sensitive to human touch. The U-shaped vibration arm is connected between the elastic frame and the support frame, which effectively reduces the resonant frequency of the exciter and increases the amplitude of the exciter.
