Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of high-intensity acoustic deterrence and expulsion devices, specifically relating to a composite material cone for a high-intensity acoustic deterrence and expulsion device and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] A high-intensity acoustic deterrence device is a device that emits a highly directional, concentrated beam of sound waves. The cone is a crucial sound-transmitting component in this system. A voice coil fixed to the cone vibrates strongly in a magnetic field after an audio signal is applied, simultaneously causing the cone to vibrate. This vibration forces the air to vibrate, thus producing sound. The material and manufacturing process of the cone significantly influence the electroacoustic performance and system stability of the high-intensity acoustic deterrence system, including its resonant frequency, effective frequency, sound intensity, sensitivity, and distortion, thereby greatly affecting the deterrence effect.
[0003] Currently, there are few reports on the materials used for the cones of high-volume deterrent devices. Some reports mention the use of polypropylene, a relatively inexpensive material. However, cones made with this material and the corresponding processing techniques are prone to uneven thickness, with the minimum thickness area often failing to meet the required thickness. Furthermore, this material generally has low strength, stiffness, and damping, making it unable to achieve high sound intensity and prone to resonance, resulting in poor clarity of speech and affecting the overall performance. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: the cone of the composite material is designed as an integral multi-conical structure; according to the structure of the composite material cone, a mold including an integral multi-conical cavity is designed and prepared; the integral molding is manufactured by using fiber fabric and prepared epoxy resin with the help of vacuum adsorption injection molding process, thereby achieving the purpose of the present invention.
[0006] The present invention also relates to a composite material cone for a high-intensity sound deterrent device, which is made of fiber fabric and epoxy resin, including a top plate outer edge and an integral multi-conical cone body; the top plate outer edge is located on the top outer side of the cone body; each cone body has a protrusion at the center of its bottom, and a connecting hole is provided around the bottom of the protrusion; the top plate outer edge is provided with a connecting hole.
[0007] Preferably, the fiber fabric includes plain weave aramid fiber fabric, twill weave aramid fiber fabric, and aramid-carbon hybrid fiber fabric, with an areal density of 100 g / m³. 2 ~400g / m 2 .
[0008] Preferably, the epoxy resin has a viscosity ≤500 mPa·s at room temperature and a loss factor of 0.70–0.85 for the cured product. It is composed of 20–50 parts by weight of TDE-85 epoxy resin, 50–80 parts by weight of E-51 epoxy resin, 15–30 parts by weight of reactive epoxy diluent, and 40–50 parts by weight of T403 curing agent.
[0009] This invention also relates to a method for preparing a composite material cone for a high-intensity acoustic deterrent device, the operation steps of which are as follows:
[0010] 1) Mold preparation and processing: The mold includes a multi-element conical cavity that matches the number and structure of the conical basin and a flat plate located on the outer side of the top of the conical cavity; the mold surface is smooth and flat, and a release agent is applied before use;
[0011] 2) Preparation of composite material cone preform: Cut the fiber fabric according to the design requirements; lay the fiber fabric along the cone-shaped cavity surface as a whole, and fix it with a setting agent. The overlapping parts between adjacent layers are staggered to obtain the composite material cone preform.
[0012] 3) Preparation of composite material cone blanks: Epoxy resin components are prepared in proportion, mixed evenly and degassed, and then the cone preform is impregnated using vacuum adsorption casting molding process to prepare composite material cone blanks.
[0013] 4) Post-processing: Trim the edges of the cone blank, improve local micro-pore defects, spray paint, and make the finished composite material cone for the strong sound rejection drive.
[0014] Preferably, the epoxy resin has a viscosity ≤500 mPa·s at room temperature and a loss factor of 0.70 to 0.85 for the cured product.

This results in high overall structural strength, high rigidity, good damping, strong stability, outstanding sound intensity, excellent sound directivity, and clear speech. It overcomes the shortcomings of existing speaker cones made from engineering plastics such as polypropylene, which suffer from low sound intensity and susceptibility to resonance. The manufacturing method of the composite material speaker cone of this invention involves designing and preparing a mold including an integrated multi-conical cavity. Cut fiber fabric is laid integrally within the mold cavity to form a preform. Vacuum adsorption casting molding is then used to impregnate the preform with prepared epoxy resin. After curing and post-treatment, the final composite material speaker cone for the high-intensity sound and light repellent system is formed. This method offers advantages such as simple molding process and low cost.
