[0060] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0061] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of the present invention are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0062] At the same time, the meaning of "and / or" or "and / or" appearing in the full text includes three options. Taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes option A, or option B, or a option in which both A and B are satisfied.

[0063] In addition, in the present invention, descriptions such as "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but they must be based on the ability of ordinary technicians in the field to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.

[0064] In order to realize the conversion of electronic equipment electrical signals into acoustic signals, common transducer devices include dynamic speakers, moving iron speakers, piezoelectric speakers, capacitive speakers, etc., all of which work on the principle of converting electrical signals into mechanical vibrations, thereby driving the air to make sounds. Flat panel sound generation is to excite the hard plate to produce various resonant modes, and the plate achieves sound radiation in the form of near random vibration. For electronic equipment, its own planar structure, such as the screen, housing, etc., provides feasible conditions for this sound generation method. In order to excite the resonant mode of the flat panel, a device that can provide excitation is necessary.

[0065] Based on the above ideas and problems, the present invention proposes an exciter 100. It can be understood that the exciter 100 is applied to an electronic device, and the electronic device has a flat structure, such as a screen, a housing, etc. By connecting the exciter 100 with the flat structure of the electronic device, such as a screen, the exciter 100 is used to excite the screen to produce various resonant modes, and the screen realizes sound radiation in a form close to random vibration.

[0066] Please refer to Figures 1 to 8 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the exciter 100 includes a stator assembly 1, an elastic member 2, a vibrator assembly 3 and a limit assembly 4, wherein the stator assembly 1 is provided with a support portion 111, the elastic member 2 is connected to the support portion 111, the vibrator assembly 3 includes an external magnetic circuit portion 33, the external magnetic circuit portion 33 is suspended on the support portion 111 through the elastic member 2, and the external magnetic circuit portion 33, the elastic member 2 and the stator assembly 1 enclose a sound cavity 5, the external magnetic circuit portion 33 is provided with a limit hole 331 connected to the sound cavity 5, the limit assembly 4 includes an inner magnetic circuit portion 41 and an inner voice coil 42 arranged around the inner magnetic circuit portion 41, one end of the limit assembly 4 is connected to the stator assembly 1, and the other end is penetrated into the limit hole 331 and is spaced from the hole wall of the limit hole 331.

[0067] In this embodiment, the stator component 1 of the exciter 100 is used to connect to a flat structure such as a screen of an electronic device, and the vibrator component 3 is used to cooperate with the stator component 1 to generate vibration. The stator component 1 resonates under the vibration of the outer magnetic circuit part 33 of the vibrator component 3, thereby exciting the screen to produce various resonant modes, so that the screen can achieve sound radiation in a form close to random vibration. In this embodiment, the exciter 100 can provide a stable output excitation to the screen, and has a lower resonant frequency to match the low-order vibration of the screen, and has a strong mechanical strength to meet the use of electronic equipment.

[0068] In this embodiment, by providing a support portion 111 on the stator assembly 1, the support portion 111 is used to support and install the vibrator assembly 3. It can be understood that the support portion 111 can be a structure such as a support column, a frame or a bracket, and by providing an elastic member 2, the outer magnetic circuit portion 33 of the vibrator assembly 3 is suspended on the support portion 111 through the elastic member 2, so that the outer magnetic circuit portion 33, the elastic member 2 and the stator assembly 1 enclose a sound cavity 5, so that when the stator assembly 1 and the outer magnetic circuit portion 33 cooperate, the outer magnetic circuit portion 33 vibrates and drives the stator assembly 1 to resonate.

[0069] It can be understood that the elastic member 2 connects the vibrator assembly 3 and the stator assembly 1 to provide flexible support for the vibrator assembly 3. During the vibration of the vibrator assembly 3, the elastic member 2 undergoes elastic deformation to provide appropriate compliance for the exciter 100. In addition, through the connection between the elastic member 2 and the vibrator assembly 3, the deviation of the vibrator assembly 3 in the non-vibration direction is reduced, the vibration form of the vibrator assembly 3 is stabilized, and the exciter 100 provides a stable force output.

[0070] In this embodiment, a limiting hole 331 connected to the acoustic cavity 5 is provided on the outer magnetic circuit portion 33, and a limiting component 4 is provided, so that one end of the limiting component 4 is located in the acoustic cavity 5 and connected to the stator component 1, and the other end of the limiting component 4 is passed through the limiting hole 331 and is spaced from the hole wall of the limiting hole 331. Therefore, when the exciter 100 or the electronic device falls or collides, the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 of the limiting component 4 is used to limit the outer magnetic circuit portion 33, thereby effectively preventing the vibrator component 3 from vibrating greatly and pulling and damaging the elastic member 2, thereby improving the reliability of the exciter 100.

[0071] It can be understood that by setting the magnetic circuit system of the vibrator component 3 as the external magnetic circuit part 33, the external magnetic circuit part 33 is suspended on the support part 111 through the elastic member 2, and the elastic member 2 provides flexible support for the vibrator component 3, thereby reducing the displacement of the vibrator component 3 in the non-vibration direction, stabilizing the vibration form of the vibrator component 3, and enabling the exciter 100 to provide a stable force output; at the same time, a limit component 4 is provided, and the limit component 4 is provided as the internal magnetic circuit part 41 and the inner voice coil 42, so that the internal magnetic circuit part 41 is fixedly connected to the stator component 1, and one end of the internal magnetic circuit part 41 is passed through the limit hole 331, on the one hand, the internal magnetic circuit part 41 realizes the limiting function of the outer magnetic circuit part 33. On the other hand, the inner magnetic circuit part 41 and the outer magnetic circuit part 33 cooperate to form a stronger magnetic field. In this way, an AC signal is passed through the voice coil, so that the voice coil introduces the electrical signal into the magnetic field formed by the inner magnetic circuit part 41 and the outer magnetic circuit part 33. Since the inner magnetic circuit part 41 and the outer magnetic circuit part 33 form a stronger magnetic field, the magnetic field driving force is increased, so that the outer magnetic circuit part 33 of the vibrator assembly 3 is subjected to the electromagnetic force to cause the vibrator assembly 3 to vibrate, and then the inertial force of the vibrator assembly 3 is transmitted to the stator assembly 1 and then to the screen, so that the screen resonates and makes sound, and the BL value of the electronic device is improved.

[0072] The exciter 100 of the present invention includes a stator assembly 1 and a vibrator assembly 3. The stator assembly 1 is connected to a plane such as a screen of an electronic device, and the vibrator assembly 3 is suspended by an elastic member 2 to improve the vibration effect of the vibrator assembly 3. At the same time, the vibrator assembly 3 is provided with a limiting hole 331 connected to the sound cavity 5, and the limiting assembly 4 is arranged in the limiting hole 331 and is spaced from the hole wall of the limiting hole 331, so that the limiting assembly 4 is used to limit the vibration of the vibrator assembly 3. In this way, when the exciter 100 or the electronic device falls or collides, the phenomenon of the vibrator assembly 3 vibrating greatly and pulling and damaging the elastic member 2 is effectively avoided, thereby improving the reliability of the exciter 100. Further, the vibrator assembly 3 includes an external magnetic circuit part 33, and the limiting assembly 4 includes an internal magnetic circuit part 41. The internal magnetic circuit part 41 cooperates with the external magnetic circuit part 33 to improve the magnetic field strength, thereby improving the output force of the exciter 100 on the electronic device to improve the sound performance of the electronic device.

[0073] It can be understood that the outer magnetic circuit part 33 of the vibrator assembly 3 is arranged opposite and parallel to the stator assembly 1, and the inner magnetic circuit part 41 and the limit hole 331 form a gap in the horizontal direction, which can limit the horizontal movement of the outer magnetic circuit part 33, thereby realizing horizontal limit, so as to avoid the situation where the magnetic circuit of the exciter 100 rubs against the voice coil under a large impact and produces abnormal sound. The total height of the inner magnetic circuit part 41 is adjusted, and when in the balanced position, the magnetic field force of the inner magnetic circuit part 41 on the outer magnetic circuit part 33 in the vertical direction is zero, so as to avoid the magnetic field force interfering with the vibration state of the vibrator assembly 3.

[0074] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, a limiting boss 414 is provided at one end of the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 away from the stator assembly 1, and a limiting stop 3342 is provided at the outer magnetic circuit portion 33 corresponding to the limiting boss 414, the limiting stop 3342 extends toward the limiting hole 331, and is located between the limiting boss 414 and the stator assembly 1; and / or, the projections of the limiting boss 414 and the limiting stop 3342 in the vibration direction of the vibrator assembly 3 at least partially overlap.

[0075] It can be understood that the limit stop 3342 extends toward the limit hole 331 and is located between the limit boss 414 and the stator assembly 1. The projections of the limit boss 414 and the limit stop 3342 in the vibration direction of the vibrator assembly 3 at least partially overlap. In this way, the limit boss 414 and the limit stop 3342 cooperate with each other to achieve the upper limit of the vibration direction of the vibrator assembly 3, preventing the vibrator assembly 3 from vibrating greatly and pulling and damaging the elastic member 2 when the exciter 100 is subjected to external force or falls, thereby improving the reliability of the exciter 100.

[0076] In this embodiment, a limiting boss 414 is provided at one end of the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 located in the limiting hole 331. At this time, the limiting boss 414 is spaced from the hole wall of the limiting hole 331 to form a gap. The gap can limit the horizontal movement of the outer magnetic circuit portion 33, thereby realizing horizontal limiting. This prevents the exciter 100 from rubbing the magnetic circuit against the voice coil and generating abnormal noise under a large impact.

[0077] It can be understood that by providing a limit stop 3342 on the external magnetic circuit portion 33 extending toward the limit hole 331, the limit stop 3342 corresponds to the limit boss 414 and is located between the limit boss 414 and the stator assembly 1, that is, there is a gap between the limit boss 414 and the limit stop 3342 in the up and down direction or the vertical direction, so that the gap formed by the limit boss 414 and the limit stop 3342 in the up and down direction or the vertical direction is utilized to limit the external magnetic circuit portion 33 in the up and down direction and the vertical direction, so as to prevent the external magnetic circuit portion 33 from vibrating violently and pulling and damaging the elastic part 2 when the exciter 100 is subjected to external force or falls, thereby improving the reliability of the exciter 100.

[0078] In this embodiment, when the exciter 100 is working, the side of the stator component 1 of the exciter 100 facing away from the vibrator component 3 is connected and fixed to the screen of the electronic device. By passing an AC signal through the voice coil 13 of the stator component 1, the voice coil 13 is used to introduce the electrical signal into the strong magnetic field formed by the inner magnetic circuit part 41 and the outer magnetic circuit part 33. The outer magnetic circuit part 33 is acted upon by the electromagnetic force and vibrates. Then, the inertial force of the outer magnetic circuit part 33 is transmitted to the stator component 1 and then to the screen through the elastic member 2, so that the screen resonates and makes sound. Optionally, the resonant frequency of the exciter 100 is between 50Hz and 1000Hz, so that the frequency response curve when the exciter 100 acts alone has a relatively stable mid- and low-frequency output.

[0079] In one embodiment, the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 has two long axis sides and two short axis sides connected end to end; the limiting boss 414 is protruded from the two long axis sides; or, the limiting boss 414 is protruded from the two short axis sides; or, the limiting boss 414 is protruded from the long axis sides and the short axis sides, and is arranged around the periphery of the inner magnetic circuit portion 41.

[0080] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 is a square structure, that is, the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 has two long axis sides and two short axis sides connected end to end. It can be understood that the two long axis sides of the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 are opposite, and the two short axis sides of the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 are opposite.

[0081] In one embodiment, the limiting bosses 414 are convexly disposed on the two short axis sides. It can be understood that the limiting bosses 414 of the outer magnetic circuit portion 33 corresponding to the two short axis sides are provided with limiting stoppers 3342 .

[0082] In another embodiment, the limiting bosses 414 are protrudingly provided on two long axis sides. In this case, the limiting bosses 414 on the two long axis sides of the outer magnetic circuit portion 33 are provided with limiting stoppers 3342 .

[0083] In another embodiment, the limiting boss 414 is protruded from the major axis side and the minor axis side, and is arranged around the periphery of the inner magnetic circuit portion 41, that is, the two major axis sides and the two minor axis sides of the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 are each provided with a limiting boss 414, and the limiting boss 414 is arranged around the periphery of the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 to form an annular boss structure. At this time, the outer magnetic circuit portion 33 is provided with an annular limiting stop 3342 corresponding to the annular limiting boss 414.

[0084] In one embodiment, the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 is cylindrical, and the limiting boss 414 is protruding from the periphery of the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 and is arranged around the periphery of the inner magnetic circuit portion 41. It can be understood that the limiting boss 414 and the limiting stop 3342 can be a continuous annular structure, or a plurality of limiting structures can be arranged at intervals. In the vibration direction of the vibrator assembly 3, the projections of the limiting boss 414 and the limiting stop 3342 at least partially overlap to achieve a limiting effect on the vibrator assembly 3 in the vibration direction, so as to prevent the vibrator assembly 3 from vibrating greatly and falling off or pulling and damaging the elastic member 2 when the exciter 100 is hit or dropped.

[0085] It is understandable that the distance between the limiting boss 414 and the limiting stop 3342 is the same. Optionally, the horizontal gap between the limiting boss 414 and the hole wall of the limiting hole 331 is the same as the horizontal gap between the limiting stop 3342 and the outer wall of the inner magnetic circuit part 41.

In this embodiment, by providing a limiting hole 331 in the outer magnetic circuit part 33, the outer magnetic gap 35 is located outside the limiting hole 331, so that the cooperation of the inner magnetic circuit part 41 and the limiting hole 331 is conveniently used to limit the outer magnetic circuit part 33 in the horizontal and vertical directions. When the exciter 100 or the electronic device falls or collides, the inner magnetic circuit part 41 is used to limit the vibrator assembly 3, so as to effectively avoid damage to the vibrator assembly 3, and cooperate with the elastic member 2 to further avoid deformation or tearing of the exciter 100.

Of course, the periphery of the inner frame 31 is provided with a fixing groove 22, and the inner wall of the elastic member 2 is provided with a fixing boss 313, which is not limited here.

[0108] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 As shown, one side of the outer magnetic conductive plate 334 adjacent to the third through hole 3341 extends toward the inside of the third through hole 3341 to form a limit stop 3342, and an end of the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 away from the stator assembly 1 is provided with a limit boss 414, and the limit stop 3342 is located between the limit boss 414 and the stator assembly 1; and / or, the projections of the limit boss 414 and the limit stop 3342 in the vibration direction of the vibrator assembly 3 at least partially overlap.

[0109] It can be understood that the limit stop 3342 extends toward the limit hole 331 and is located between the limit boss 414 and the stator assembly 1. The projections of the limit boss 414 and the limit stop 3342 in the vibration direction of the vibrator assembly 3 at least partially overlap. In this way, the limit boss 414 and the limit stop 3342 cooperate with each other to achieve the upper limit of the vibration direction of the vibrator assembly 3, preventing the vibrator assembly 3 from vibrating greatly and pulling and damaging the elastic member 2 when the exciter 100 is subjected to external force or falls, thereby improving the reliability of the exciter 100.

[0110] Optionally, the outer magnetic conductive plate 334 and the limit stop 3342 are integrally formed. In this embodiment, the outer magnetic conductive plate 334 and the limit stop 3342 are located in the same plane. It can be understood that in order to ensure the structure and processing convenience of the outer magnetic conductive plate 334, the limit stop 3342 and the hole wall of the third through hole 3341 are smoothly transitioned.

[0111] In one embodiment, the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 and the outer magnetic circuit portion 33 are spaced to form an inner magnetic gap 34, and the inner voice coil 42 is disposed in the inner magnetic gap 34; the stator assembly 1 includes an outer frame 11 and a back plate 12, the back plate 12 is connected to one end of the outer frame 11, so that the other end of the outer frame 11 forms a support portion 111, one end of the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 is connected to the back plate 12, the outer magnetic circuit portion 33 is suspended on the support portion 111 through the elastic member 2, and the back plate 12, the outer frame 11, the elastic member 2 and the outer magnetic circuit portion 33 are surrounded to form a sound cavity 5; wherein, the inner voice coil 42 is disposed on the side of the back plate 12 facing the outer magnetic circuit portion 33, and the inner voice coil 42 is fitted and fixed to the inner magnetic circuit portion 41.

[0112] In this embodiment, if Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the outer frame 11 can be selected as a frame body or a frame structure, that is, the outer frame 11 is open at both ends and has a cavity structure inside. The outer frame 11 is used to support, install and fix the back plate 12, the inner voice coil 42 and the outer magnetic circuit part 33 of the vibrator assembly 3. It can be understood that the back plate 12 is connected to one end of the outer frame 11 and covers the opening at one end, and the outer magnetic circuit part 33 of the vibrator assembly 3 is suspended from the support part 111 at the other end of the outer frame 11 through the elastic member 2, so that the back plate 12, the outer frame 11, the elastic member 2 and the vibrator assembly 3 enclose the sound cavity 5.

[0113] It can be understood that the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 and the outer magnetic circuit portion 33 are spaced apart to form an inner magnetic gap 34, and the inner voice coil 42 is located in the sound cavity 5, one end of the inner voice coil 42 is connected to the back plate 12, and the other end is suspended in the inner magnetic gap 34, so that when an AC signal is passed into the inner voice coil 42, the inner voice coil 42 introduces the AC signal into the inner magnetic gap 34, so that the outer magnetic circuit portion 33 of the vibrator assembly 3 is affected by the electromagnetic force and vibrates, and then the inertial force of the outer magnetic circuit portion 33 is transmitted to the stator assembly 1 and then to the screen, causing the screen to resonate and make sound.

[0114] In this embodiment, the inner voice coil 42 is a multi-turn coil wound by a wire, and the back plate 12 plays the role of supporting and fixing the inner voice coil 42, and is also used to be fixedly connected to the screen of the electronic device. It can be understood that the inner voice coil 42 is arranged around the inner magnetic circuit part 41. Optionally, the inner wall of the inner voice coil 42 is connected and fixed to the outer wall of the inner magnetic circuit part 41. The limiting boss 414 of the inner magnetic circuit part 41 covers the inner voice coil 42, that is, the projection of the inner voice coil 42 on the back plate 12 is located within the projection range of the limiting boss 414 on the back plate 12.

[0115] Optionally, the back plate 12 is a flat plate structure. It can be understood that in order to achieve the limit of the inner magnetic circuit part 41 in the horizontal direction (i.e., perpendicular to the vibration direction of the vibrator assembly 3), the distance from the inner voice coil 42 to the limit stop 3342 is greater than the distance from the inner magnetic circuit part 41 to the hole wall of the limit hole 331. That is, the distance from the inner voice coil 42 to the limit stop 3342 along the horizontal direction is greater than the distance from the inner magnetic circuit part 41 to the hole wall of the limit hole 331 along the horizontal direction.

[0116] In this embodiment, in the vibration direction perpendicular to the vibrator assembly 3, the distance from the inner voice coil 42 to the inner wall of the inner magnetic gap 34 is greater than the distance between the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 and the outer magnetic circuit portion 33. It can be understood that the distance between the inner magnetic circuit portion 41 and the outer magnetic circuit portion 33 can be the distance from the limiting boss 414 to the outer magnetic circuit portion 33 or the distance from the limiting stop 3342 to the inner magnetic circuit portion 41. In this way, the limiting assembly 4 is used to limit the vibration of the vibrator assembly 3. In this way, when the exciter 100 or the electronic device falls or collides, the limiting assembly 4 is used to limit the vibrator assembly 3, thereby effectively preventing the vibrator assembly 3 from vibrating significantly, pulling and damaging the elastic member 2, and improving the reliability of the exciter 100.

[0117] It is understandable that the material of the back plate 12 can be selected from metal materials, polymer materials, fiber composite materials or ceramic materials. Of course, the material of the back plate 12 can also be a piezoelectric ceramic material. Optionally, the piezoelectric ceramic material includes PZT, lead metaniobate, PbTiO 3 、BaTiO 3 , one of BNT.

[0118] In this embodiment, the material of the back plate 12 can also be piezoelectric ceramic material, and the inverse piezoelectric effect of the piezoelectric ceramic material can be utilized, that is, when power is turned on, the piezoelectric ceramic can produce deformation or mechanical stress, thereby stimulating the screen to vibrate, so as to improve the frequency response performance of the electronic device in the medium and high frequencies.

[0119] like Fig.10As shown, the performance comparison between the back plate 12 of the actuator 100 made of metal material, polymer material, fiber composite material or ceramic material and the back plate 12 made of piezoelectric ceramic material shows that when the back plate 12 of the actuator 100 is made of piezoelectric ceramic material, the inverse piezoelectric effect of the piezoelectric ceramic material can be utilized, that is, when powered on, the piezoelectric ceramic can produce deformation or mechanical stress, thereby stimulating the screen to vibrate, so as to improve the frequency response performance of the electronic device at high frequencies. It can be understood that piezoelectric ceramics exhibit piston motion at low frequencies, but due to the small displacement, their low-frequency output capacity is weak, but at high frequencies, the piezoelectric ceramics transition to split vibration, at which time a larger force output can be achieved.

[0120] Since the traditional exciter is affected by the weight and size of the stator assembly 1, its high-frequency performance is limited; when the back plate 12 is made of a piezoelectric ceramic plate, when the exciter 100 is working, the piezoelectric ceramic receives a signal greater than 5kHz, which compensates for the high-frequency performance of the exciter 100. Therefore, the exciter 100 has a stable force output in both the low-frequency band and the high-frequency band, and when applied to electronic equipment, the full-band sound performance of the electronic equipment is improved.

[0121] In this embodiment, the thickness of the back plate 12 is 0.05 mm to 0.5 mm. Optionally, the thickness of the back plate 12 is 0.05 mm, 0.1 mm, 0.15 mm, 0.2 mm, 0.25 mm, 0.3 mm, 0.35 mm, 0.4 mm, 0.45 mm, 0.5 mm, etc., which is not limited here.

[0122] In one embodiment, an external magnetic gap 35 is further provided on the side of the external magnetic circuit portion 33 facing the sound cavity 5. The external magnetic gap 35 is located on the outside of the internal magnetic gap 34 and is arranged around the internal magnetic gap 34. The stator assembly 1 also includes an outer voice coil 14, which is arranged around the inner voice coil 42 and is located between the support portion 111 and the inner voice coil 42. One end of the outer voice coil 14 is suspended in the external magnetic gap 35.

[0123] In this embodiment, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, it can be understood that an external magnetic gap 35 is provided on the side of the external magnetic circuit part 33 facing the sound cavity 5, that is, the external magnet 333 and the external magnetic conductive plate 334 of the external magnetic circuit part 33 are spaced apart from the side plate 3322 to form an external magnetic gap 35, and the outer voice coil 14 is located in the sound cavity 5, one end of the outer voice coil 14 is connected to the back plate 12, and the other end is suspended in the external magnetic gap 35, and the outer voice coil 14 is arranged around the inner voice coil 42, so that an AC signal is introduced into the outer voice coil 14, so that the voice coil 13 introduces the AC signal into the external magnetic gap 35, so that the external magnetic circuit part 33 of the vibrator assembly 3 is subjected to the electromagnetic force and vibrates, and then the inertial force of the external magnetic circuit part 33 is transmitted to the screen, so that the screen resonates and makes sound.

[0124] In this embodiment, the outer voice coil 14 is a multi-turn coil wound by a wire, and the back plate 12 plays the role of supporting and fixing the outer voice coil 14, and is also used to fix the screen of the electronic device. It can be understood that in order to achieve the horizontal limitation of the inner magnetic circuit part 41, the distance from the outer voice coil 14 to the inner wall of the outer magnetic gap 35 is greater than the distance from the inner magnetic circuit part 41 to the hole wall of the limiting hole 331. That is, the distance from the outer voice coil 14 to the inner wall of the outer magnetic gap 35 in the horizontal direction is greater than the distance between the inner magnetic circuit part 41 and the vibrator assembly 3. It can be the horizontal distance between the limiting boss 414 and the outer magnetic circuit part 33, or it can be the horizontal distance between the limiting stop 3342 of the outer magnetic circuit part 33 and the inner magnetic circuit part 41.

[0125] It can be understood that the current direction of the inner voice coil 42 is opposite to that of the outer voice coil 14. In this embodiment, by arranging the two-part structure of the outer magnetic circuit part 33 and the inner magnetic circuit part 41 on the vibrator assembly 3, an inner magnetic gap 34 is formed between the outer magnetic circuit part 33 and the inner magnetic circuit part 41, and an outer magnetic gap 35 is formed on the side of the outer magnetic circuit part 33 facing the back plate 12, and by arranging the inner voice coil 42 and the outer voice coil 14 on the back plate 12, the inner voice coil 42 and the outer voice coil 14 are suspended in the inner magnetic gap 34 and the outer magnetic gap 35 respectively, so that the inner voice coil 42 and the outer voice coil 14 are in the stronger magnetic field formed by the outer magnetic circuit part 33 and the inner magnetic circuit part 41, so as to increase the driving force on the outer magnetic circuit part 33, thereby improving the BL value of the electronic device.

[0126] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the back plate 12 is provided with a hollow hole 121 connected to the sound cavity 5, and the hollow hole 121 is located on the inner side or / and the outer side of the outer voice coil 14. It can be understood that by providing a hollow area such as the hollow hole 121 on the back plate 12, the purpose of weight reduction is achieved, thereby improving the high-frequency sound output of the screen. Optionally, the area of ​​the hollow hole 121 does not exceed 50% of the total area of ​​the back plate 12.

[0127] In this embodiment, the hollow hole 121 can be selected as a circular hole, an elliptical hole, a bar hole, a waist-shaped hole, a polygonal hole or a special-shaped hole, etc., which is not limited here. Optionally, the hollow hole 121 includes a plurality of hollow holes, and the plurality of hollow holes 121 are arranged at intervals. Of course, in other embodiments, one end of the plurality of hollow holes 121 can also be connected to form shapes of different patterns, which is not limited here. It can be understood that the hollow hole 121 is located on the inner side of the outer voice coil 14; or, the hollow hole 121 is located on the outer side of the outer voice coil 14; or, the hollow hole 121 is located on the inner and outer sides of the outer voice coil 14, which is not limited here. Of course, the hollow hole 121 is optionally located between the outer voice coil 14 and the inner voice coil 42. Optionally, the back plate 12 is made of metal aluminum.

[0128] In one embodiment, the elastic member 2 has a folded ring portion 21; the folded ring portion 21 is formed by a side of the elastic member 2 facing away from the sound cavity 5 being recessed toward the sound cavity 5; or, the folded ring portion 21 is formed by a side of the elastic member 2 facing away from the sound cavity 5 being protruded toward a side away from the sound cavity 5; or, the folded ring portion 21 has a plurality of protrusions and a plurality of recesses with continuous transitions.

[0129] In this embodiment, if Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, by setting the folding ring portion 21 on the elastic member 2, the folding ring portion 21 of the elastic member 2 plays an elastic buffering role on the vibration of the outer magnetic circuit portion 33 of the vibrator assembly 3, thereby playing an auxiliary limiting role. It can be understood that the folding ring portion 21 can be a convex or concave structure, that is, the folding ring portion 21 is a convex structure formed by the side of the elastic member 2 facing away from the sound cavity 5 and convex toward the side away from the sound cavity 5; or, the folding ring portion 21 is a concave structure formed by the side of the elastic member 2 facing away from the sound cavity 5 and concave toward the inside of the sound cavity 5, which is not limited here.

[0130] Optionally, the elastic member 2 has a plurality of protrusions and a plurality of recesses with continuous transition, that is, the elastic member 2 is wavy.

[0131] Optionally, the elastic member 2 is made of a superelastic material, which is one of silicone rubber, fluorosilicone rubber, NBR, TPU, and TPE. It is understandable that by making the elastic member 2 of a superelastic material and selecting the material of the elastic member 2, the compliance of the elastic member 2 is further adjusted, thereby adjusting the vibration characteristics of the back plate 12 and effectively improving the force output of the exciter 100. Optionally, the stiffness coefficient of the elastic member 2 is 5N / m~50N / m.

[0132] In one embodiment, a limiting structure may be provided on the side of the elastic member 2 facing away from the sound cavity 5. The limiting structure may be a plurality of limiting protrusions arranged at intervals, or a limiting ring arranged continuously. The limiting structure and the elastic member 2 are integrally formed. The limiting structure is provided on the elastic member 2 to assist in limiting the space of the exciter 100 away from the side of the screen, so as to prevent the vibrator assembly 3 from touching the housing or other components of the electronic device when the vibration amplitude is too large, thereby affecting the vibration effect or damaging the housing.

[0133] The performance of the actuator 100 of the present invention is compared with that of the prior art actuator.
