[0044] Various exemplary embodiments of the present application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement, numerical expressions, and values ​​of the components and steps set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present application.

[0045] The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the scope of this application and its application or use.

[0046] Techniques, methods, and equipment known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such techniques, methods, and equipment should be considered part of the specification.

[0047] In all the examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as limitations. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values.

[0048] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be discussed further in subsequent figures.

[0049] Reference Figures 1a-2 As shown, according to one embodiment of this application, a sound generating device 1 is provided. The sound generating device 1 includes a housing 10, a magnetic circuit system and a vibration system. The housing 10 has an accommodating space and a first sound outlet 100. The magnetic circuit system is disposed in the accommodating space and has a magnetic gap.

[0050] The vibration system includes a first diaphragm 11, a second diaphragm 12, an intermediate septum 13, a voice coil 14, and an elastic support member 15. The first diaphragm 11 is disposed on the side of the housing 10 away from the magnetic circuit system, the second diaphragm 12 is disposed on the side of the first diaphragm 11 facing the magnetic circuit system, and the intermediate septum 13 is disposed between the first diaphragm 11 and the second diaphragm 12.

[0051] The voice coil 14 is at least partially disposed in the magnetic gap, and the voice coil 14 is connected to the first diaphragm 11, while the second diaphragm 12 and the intermediate septum 13 are located outside the voice coil 14.

[0052] The outer edges of the second diaphragm 12 and the intermediate septum 13 are both connected to the outer shell 10, and the inner edge of the intermediate septum 13 is sandwiched between the inner edge of the second diaphragm 12 and the first diaphragm 11; a sealed second sound cavity Q2 is formed between the second diaphragm 12 and the intermediate septum 13, and the second sound cavity Q2 is connected to the first sound outlet 100.

[0053] The elastic support 15 is disposed on the side of the second diaphragm 12 away from the first diaphragm 11, and the elastic support 15 connects the housing 10 and the voice coil 14.

[0054] In the sound-generating device 1 provided in this application embodiment, the magnetic circuit system is responsible for providing a constant magnetic field, and the voice coil 14 is placed in the constant magnetic field. When the audio current passes through the voice coil 14, the voice coil 14 vibrates under the action of the Ampere force in the magnetic field, thereby driving the first diaphragm 11 to vibrate and generate sound. Furthermore, since the second diaphragm 12 and the intermediate septum 13 are both connected to the first diaphragm 11, the first diaphragm 11 vibrates while also driving the second diaphragm 12 and the intermediate septum 13 to vibrate together in the same direction. A sealed second sound-generating cavity Q2 is formed between the second diaphragm 12 and the intermediate septum 13. The vibration of the first diaphragm 11, the second diaphragm 12 and the intermediate septum 13 will drive the sound waves of the second sound-generating cavity Q2 to radiate outward through the first sound outlet 100, thereby realizing the vibration sound generation of the sound-generating device.

[0055] In the sound-generating device 1 provided in this application embodiment, a second diaphragm 12 and an intermediate septum 13 are added to the traditional first diaphragm 11 vibration sound generation. The second diaphragm 12 and the intermediate septum 13 form a sealed second sound-generating cavity Q2. The sound waves from the second sound-generating cavity Q2 radiate outward through the first sound outlet 100, thereby increasing the effective vibration area of ​​the vibration system and thus improving the FR (frequency response) of the sound-generating device, thereby improving the acoustic performance of the sound-generating device. That is, by increasing the effective vibration area of ​​the vibration system, the sound-generating device 1 provided in this application embodiment improves the acoustic performance of the sound-generating device 1 under the same amplitude conditions without increasing the size of the sound-generating device. In other words, if the sound-generating device 1 provided in this application embodiment maintains the same acoustic performance as a conventional sound-generating device, the amplitude of the vibration system can be reduced, thereby enabling a thinner and lighter design for the sound-generating device 1.

[0056] Furthermore, the elastic support 15 not only provides an electrical connection path between the voice coil 14 and the external circuit system, but also helps to improve the vibration stability of the vibration system and reduce polarization.

[0057] Reference Figure 1a , Figure 1f As shown, in one embodiment, the elastic support 15 includes an outer fixing part 151, a vibrating arm 153, and an inner fixing part 152 connected in sequence. The outer fixing part 151 is fixed to the outer shell 10. The inner fixing part 152 includes a body part 1521 and an extension part 1522. The body part 1521 is connected to the second diaphragm 12. The extension part 1522 extends from the body part 1521 toward the voice coil 14 and is connected to the voice coil 14. The body part 1521 or the extension part 1522 is provided with a solder pad that is electrically connected to the voice coil 14.

[0058] In this specific example, the outer fixing part 151 of the elastic support 15 is connected to the outer shell 10, and the inner fixing part 152 is connected to the voice coil 14. The elastic support 15 ensures the stability of the connection between the voice coil 14 and the outer shell 10. Furthermore, a gap is provided between the outer fixing part 151 and the vibrating arm 153 to ensure that the inner fixing part 152 and the vibrating arm 153 can vibrate freely under the action of the voice coil 14, without hindering the free vibration of the voice coil 14 within the magnetic gap. The structural design of the outer fixing part 151, the vibrating arm 153, and the inner fixing part 152 ensures structural stability and vibration transmission efficiency. The solder pads provided on the body part 1521 or the extension part 1522 of the inner fixing part 152 facilitate electrical connection with the voice coil 14.

[0059] Reference Figures 1a to 1cAs shown, in one embodiment, the second diaphragm 12 includes a second folded ring 121 and a second vibrating plate 122. The outer side of the second folded ring 121 is connected to the outer shell 10, and the inner side of the second folded ring 121 is connected to the outer side of the second vibrating plate 122. The inner side of the second vibrating plate 122 is integrally bent and extends to the first diaphragm 11 and is connected to the first diaphragm 11. The body portion 1521 is connected to the second vibrating plate 122.

[0060] In this specific example, the second diaphragm 12 includes a second folded ring 121 made of flexible material and a second vibrating plate 122 made of rigid material, which are connected to each other. The second vibrating plate 122 also serves as a skeleton connecting the first diaphragm 11 and the intermediate septum 13, facilitating the integration of components of the sound-generating device 1 and saving internal volume. Furthermore, the inner portion of the second vibrating plate 122 includes an inclined portion 1220. The inclined portion 1220 enhances the rigidity of the second vibrating plate 122 in the horizontal direction (i.e., perpendicular to the vibration direction of the vibration system), thereby improving the vibration performance of the second diaphragm 12 and increasing the feasibility of molding. Simultaneously, the inclined portion 1220 is further away from the magnetic circuit system relative to the inner edge of the second vibrating plate 122, allowing the outer edge of the magnetic circuit system to extend outwards, thereby increasing the size of the magnetic circuit system and further improving the BL of the sound-generating device; and the inclined portion 1220 facilitates the positioning and connection of the second vibrating plate 122 and the second folded ring 121, improving connection accuracy. In this embodiment, the second vibrating plate 122 can be a magnesium-aluminum alloy, a magnesium-lithium alloy, or the like. The body portion 1521 of the inner fixing portion 152 in the elastic support member 15 is specifically connected to the second vibrating plate 122, thereby providing support for the second diaphragm 12.

[0061] Reference Figure 1f As shown, in one embodiment, the sound-generating device includes two opposing long axis sides and a short axis side connecting the two long axis sides. The vibrating arm 153 is led out from the corner of the inner fixing part 152 corresponding to the short axis side and extends along the long axis side after being bent.

[0062] In this specific example, the sound-generating device 1 is generally rectangular. The sound-generating device 1 includes two opposing long axis sides and a short axis side connecting the two long axis sides. The vibrating arm 153 is led out from the corner of the inner fixing part 152 corresponding to the short axis side and extends along the long axis side. This helps to increase the length of the vibrating arm 153 of the elastic support member 15, and its reliability is guaranteed when the sound-generating device operates with a large amplitude.

[0063] Reference Figure 1f As shown, in one embodiment, the outer fixing part 151 is annular, and the number of inner fixing parts 152 is four, with the four inner fixing parts 152 respectively connected to the four corners of the voice coil 14.

[0064] The number of vibration arms 153 is four. One end of each vibration arm 153 is connected to an inner fixing part 152, and the other end is connected to the central area of ​​an outer fixing part 151.

[0065] In this specific example, the outer fixing part 151 is annular, and four inner fixing parts 152 are provided. Each of the four inner fixing parts 152 is located inside the outer fixing part 151 and at one of the four corners of the sound-generating device. The four inner fixing parts 152 are connected to the four corners of the voice coil 14, providing uniform support for the voice coil 14. Four vibrating arms 153 are also provided. One end of each vibrating arm 153 is connected to an inner fixing part 152, and the other end is connected to the central area of ​​the outer fixing part 151, forming a stable support frame. This helps ensure uniform support and vibration of the voice coil 14 within the magnetic gap. Optionally, two vibrating arms 153 located on the same side can be either separate or integrated.

[0066] In one embodiment, the elastic support 15 includes two or four sub-elastic supports, which are spaced apart. The outer side of each sub-elastic support is connected to the outer shell 10, and the inner side is connected to the voice coil 14.

[0067] In this specific example, the elastic support 15 can be a single integral structure; or, the elastic support 15 can include two or four separate discrete structures. The integral elastic support 15 is easier to install and operate; the separate discrete elastic support 15 vibrates independently and without interference as it follows the vibration of the voice coil 14.

[0068] In addition, a conductive part 150 for providing electrical connection between the voice coil 14 and an external circuit system is connected to the outer side of the external fixing part 151.

[0069] Reference Figure 1a As shown, in one embodiment, the magnetic circuit system includes a magnetic yoke 18 and an inner magnetic portion 16 and a side magnetic portion 17 disposed on the magnetic yoke 18, with a magnetic gap formed between the inner magnetic portion 16 and the side magnetic portion 17, and the magnetic yoke 18 is provided with a clearance structure 180 that avoids the inner fixing portion 152.

[0070] In this specific example, the arrangement of the avoidance structure 180 helps to prevent the magnetic yoke 18 from interfering with the vibration of the inner fixing part 152 following the voice coil 14.

[0071] Reference Figure 1a As shown, in one embodiment, the avoidance structure 180 is a through hole penetrating the magnetic yoke 18. The through hole is a leakage hole of the sound-generating device, and the through hole connects the rear cavity space of the sound-generating device corresponding to the magnetic circuit system and the space outside the sound-generating device.

[0072] Alternatively, the clearance structure 180 is a groove formed by the recess of the surface of the magnetic yoke 18 toward the accommodating space.

[0073] In this specific example, the clearance structure 180 can be a through hole, in which case the clearance structure 180 also serves as a leakage hole for the sound-generating device 1. Alternatively, the clearance structure 180 can also be a groove. The clearance structure 180 should not affect the inner fixing part 152's vibration following the voice coil 14.

[0074] Reference Figures 1a to 1c As shown, in one embodiment, the first diaphragm 11 includes a first folded ring 111 and a first vibrating plate 112. The outer edge of the first folded ring 111 is connected to the outer shell 10, and the inner edge of the first folded ring 111 is connected to the first vibrating plate 112. The first vibrating plate 112 is provided with a first protrusion 1121, and the first protrusion 1121 is connected to the second diaphragm 12 and the intermediate septum 13.

[0075] In one embodiment, the intermediate diaphragm 13 is a flexible member, and the effective vibration area of ​​the intermediate diaphragm 13 is smaller than the effective vibration area of ​​the second diaphragm 12; specifically, the ratio of the effective vibration area of ​​the intermediate diaphragm 13 to the effective vibration area of ​​the second diaphragm 12 is 1:1.5 to 1:3.

[0076] In this specific example, the first diaphragm 11 includes a first folded ring 111 made of flexible material and a first vibrating plate 112 made of rigid material. The first folded ring 111 and the first vibrating plate 112 are connected to each other, thereby improving the vibration performance of the first diaphragm 11. Furthermore, the first diaphragm 11 is connected to the second diaphragm 12 and the intermediate septum 13 through a first protrusion 1121. Thus, using the first protrusion 1121 as a connecting frame saves on the number of components, reduces the assembly steps of the sound-generating device 1, and saves on manufacturing costs. The intermediate septum 13 is entirely made of flexible material. Since the intermediate septum 13 has a reaction effect on pushing air volume when the sound-generating device 1 is working, while the second diaphragm 12 has a positive effect on pushing air volume, and the effective vibration area of ​​the intermediate septum 13 is smaller than that of the second diaphragm 12, the positive phase sound wave of the second sound cavity Q2 can be increased, thus increasing the volume of air pushed by the sound-generating device 1 and improving the sound quality. It should be noted that the intermediate diaphragm 13 is a flexible component, and the second diaphragm 12 includes a second folded ring 121 and a second vibrating plate 122.

[0077] In one embodiment, the intermediate septum 13 is a flexible member, and the second diaphragm 12 includes a second folded ring 121 and a second vibrating plate 122. In the projection along the vibration direction, the width of the deformed portion of the intermediate septum 13 is greater than or equal to the width of the deformed portion of the second folded ring 121, and the ratio of the width of the deformed portion of the intermediate septum 13 to the width of the deformed portion of the second folded ring 121 is 1:1 to 3:1.

[0078] In this specific example, the width of the deformed portion of the intermediate septum 13 is greater than or equal to the width of the deformed portion of the second fold 121, which helps to improve the compliance of the intermediate septum 13.

[0079] In one embodiment, the first diaphragm 11 includes a first folded ring 111 and a first vibrating plate 112. The outer edge of the first folded ring 111 is connected to the outer shell 10, and the inner edge of the first folded ring 111 is connected to the first vibrating plate 112. The compliance of the intermediate septum 13 is greater than that of the second folded ring 121 and the first folded ring 111. That is, the compliance of the second folded ring and the first folded ring is less than that of the intermediate septum.

[0080] In this embodiment, the intermediate diaphragm 13 has a large compliance and only serves to form a closed second sound cavity Q2 with the second diaphragm 12. It will not affect the vibration performance of the first diaphragm 11 and the second diaphragm 12, thereby improving the low-frequency sensitivity of the sound generating device 1.

[0081] Reference Figures 1a to 1c As shown, in one embodiment, the intermediate diaphragm 13 is a flexible member. The intermediate diaphragm 13 includes an outer connecting portion 131, a deformable portion 132, and an inner connecting portion 133. The outer connecting portion 131 is connected to the outer shell 10, the deformable portion 132 is located between the outer connecting portion 131 and the inner connecting portion 133, and the inner connecting portion 133 is connected to the second diaphragm 12 or the first diaphragm 11.

[0082] In this specific example, the intermediate septum 13 is made entirely of a flexible material, and its outer connecting part 131 is connected to the outer shell 10 to form a fixed end. Its effective vibration area for providing anti-phase acoustic waves is small, thus having minimal impact on the performance of the vibration system. Furthermore, the intermediate septum 13 serves a sealing and isolation function. Optionally, the intermediate septum can be a single-layer PEEK (polyether ether ketone) membrane, a composite PEEK (polyether ether ketone) membrane, etc.

[0083] In this embodiment, the inner connecting portion 133 is positioned closer to the first diaphragm 11 than the outer connecting portion 131, thereby increasing the volume of the second sound-generating cavity Q2 and improving the acoustic performance of the sound-generating device 1. Alternatively, the inner connecting portion 133 may be located between the inner edges of the first diaphragm 11 and the second vibrating plate 122; or, the inner edge of the second vibrating plate 122 may be located between the first diaphragm 11 and the inner connecting portion 133; this improves the connection stability of the three components. Alternatively, the inner connecting portion 133 and the inner edges of the second vibrating plate 122 may be connected to the first diaphragm 11 respectively, meaning that the inner connecting portion 133 and the inner edges of the second vibrating plate 122 may not be connected, and both may be connected to the first diaphragm 11. Various connection methods can be flexibly selected according to actual applications, and this invention does not impose any limitations.

[0084] Reference Figures 1b-1dAs shown, in one embodiment, the first diaphragm 11 includes a first folded ring 111, a first vibrating plate 112 and a first support 113. One end of the first support 113 is connected to the first vibrating plate 112, and the other end of the first support 113 is connected to the second vibrating plate 122 and the intermediate septum 13.

[0085] In this specific example, the first diaphragm 11 includes a first support 113. The first vibrating plate 112 is connected to the second diaphragm 12 and the intermediate septum 13 through the first support 113. Thus, the connection position between the second diaphragm 12 and the intermediate septum 13 and the first diaphragm 11 can be flexibly adjusted by adjusting the height of the first support 113. Both of these structural forms of the first diaphragm 11 can ensure effective connection between the first diaphragm 11, the second diaphragm 12, and the intermediate septum 13, thereby ensuring the integrity of the vibration system of the sound-generating device 1.

[0086] Reference Figures 1b-1d As shown, in one embodiment, the first diaphragm 11 includes a first folded ring 111 and a first diaphragm plate 112. The outer edge of the first folded ring 111 is connected to the outer casing 10, and the inner edge of the first folded ring 111 is connected to the first diaphragm plate 112. Optionally, the first diaphragm plate 112 is provided with a second protrusion 1122, which is connected to the voice coil 14; or, the first diaphragm 11 further includes a second support 114, one end of which is connected to the first diaphragm plate 112, and the other end of which is connected to the voice coil 14.

[0087] In this specific example, the first diaphragm 11 can be connected to the voice coil 14 through two structural forms: In the first structural form, the first diaphragm 11 includes a first surround 111 and a first diaphragm plate 112. The first diaphragm plate 112 has a second protrusion 1122 integrally formed thereon, and the first diaphragm 11 is connected to the voice coil 14 through the second protrusion 1122. Thus, using the second protrusion 1122 as a connecting frame can save on the number of components, reduce the assembly steps of the sound-generating device 1, and save on manufacturing costs. In the second structural form, the first diaphragm 11 also includes a second support 114, and the first diaphragm plate 112 is connected to the voice coil 14 through the second support 114. Thus, the position of the voice coil 14 in the magnetic gap can be flexibly adjusted by adjusting the height of the second support 114. Both structural forms of the first diaphragm 11 can ensure an effective connection between the first diaphragm 11 and the voice coil 14, thereby ensuring that the voice coil 14 can effectively drive the first diaphragm 11 to vibrate and produce sound.

[0088] In summary, the first diaphragm 112 can be integrally formed with a first protrusion 1121 connected to the second diaphragm 12, or the first diaphragm 112 can be integrally formed with a second protrusion 1122 connected to the voice coil 14; or the first diaphragm 112 can also be connected to the second diaphragm 12 via a first bracket 113 or to the voice coil 14 via a second bracket 114.

[0089] Reference Figure 1a , Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the first diaphragm 11 and the intermediate septum 13 form a first rear cavity H1, and the first diaphragm 11, the second diaphragm 12, and the outer shell 10 form a second rear cavity H2; the first rear cavity H1 and the second rear cavity H2 are connected. This facilitates the flow of air inside the sound-generating device 1, improves the air pressure balance at different locations within the internal region of the sound-generating device 1, and enhances the vibration performance of the first diaphragm 11 and the second diaphragm 12. It should be noted that when the first diaphragm 11 is connected to the second diaphragm 12 and the intermediate septum 13 via the first protrusion 1121 of the first vibrating plate 112, the first protrusion 1121 is provided with a notch for connecting the first rear cavity H1 and the second rear cavity H2, that is, the first protrusions 1121 are spaced apart on the first vibrating plate. Alternatively, when the first diaphragm 11 is connected to the second diaphragm 12 and the intermediate septum 13 via the first bracket 113, the first bracket 113 is provided with a notch for connecting the first rear cavity H1 and the second rear cavity H2.

[0090] Furthermore, the first diaphragm 11, the second diaphragm 12, the outer shell 10, and the magnetic circuit system together form a second rear cavity H2. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the outer shell 10 is an annular structure with openings at both ends. The magnetic circuit system is connected to one end and covers the opening. The first diaphragm 11, the second diaphragm 12, the outer shell 10, and the magnetic circuit system together form a second rear cavity H2.

[0091] Reference Figure 1b As shown, in one embodiment, the first diaphragm 11 includes a first folded ring 111, the second diaphragm 12 includes a second folded ring 121, and the intermediate septum 13 includes a deformable portion 132; the first folded ring 111 protrudes away from the second diaphragm 12, and the deformable portion 132 protrudes towards the second diaphragm 12. Thus, the intermediate septum 13 and the first diaphragm 11 will not interfere with each other during vibration, and it is convenient to position the intermediate septum 13 closer to the accommodating space, further reducing the effective vibration area of ​​the intermediate septum 13.

[0092] In one embodiment, the second diaphragm 12 includes a second folded ring 121, and the intermediate septum 13 includes a deformable portion 132. The second folded ring 121 protrudes towards the first diaphragm 11, and the deformable portion 132 protrudes away from the first diaphragm 11. The second folded ring 121 and the deformable portion 132 are offset in the horizontal direction, which is perpendicular to the vibration direction. This ensures sufficient vibration space between the intermediate septum 13 and the second diaphragm 12, preventing interference between them during vibration.

[0093] In the above embodiments, when the first diaphragm 11, the second diaphragm 12 and the deformable portion 132 of the intermediate diaphragm 13 vibrate together, the three will not interfere with each other, thereby ensuring that the sound-generating device 1 has excellent sound quality.

[0094] Reference Figure 1a , Figure 1e , Figure 1g As shown, in one embodiment, the magnetic circuit system includes a yoke 18 and an inner magnetic portion 16 and a side magnetic portion 17 disposed on the yoke 18. The side magnetic portion 17 is disposed outside the inner magnetic portion 16, and a magnetic gap is formed between the inner magnetic portion 16 and the side magnetic portion 17. The side magnetic portion 17 is provided with a notch, and the voice coil 14 has a first protrusion 140 extending into the notch. Further optionally, the inner magnetic portion 16 has a second protrusion, which is correspondingly disposed to the first protrusion 140.

[0095] In this specific example, the first protrusion 140 on the voice coil 14 reduces the distance between the voice coil 14 and the second diaphragm 12, facilitating the connection and assembly of the elastic support 15 and the voice coil 14. The inner magnet 16 has a second protrusion corresponding to the first protrusion 140. By matching the shape of the inner magnet 16 with the voice coil 14, the voice coil 14 can effectively utilize the magnetic field gap at the corner of the magnetic circuit system, increasing the BL of the sound-generating device 1 and thus improving its overall acoustic performance.

[0096] Reference Figure 1h As shown, in one embodiment, the inner magnetic portion 16 includes an inner magnet 161 and an inner magnetic guiding plate 162 whose shapes and sizes are matched. The inner magnet 161 is sandwiched between the inner magnetic guiding plate 162 and the magnetic yoke 18. The second protrusion includes both a protrusion formed by extending from the inner magnet 161 and a protrusion formed by extending from the inner magnetic guiding plate 162. Furthermore, the first protrusion 140 includes a first side 141 disposed opposite to it, and the second protrusion forms a second side opposite to the first side 141. The first side 141 and the second side are arranged parallel to each other. Specifically, the inner magnet 161 extends to form a first sub-protrusion 1610, and the inner magnetic guiding plate 162 extends to form a second sub-protrusion 1620. The first protrusion 140, the first sub-protrusion 1610, and the second sub-protrusion 1620 are all correspondingly disposed.

[0097] Reference Figure 1e and Figure 1h As shown, the first protrusion 140 includes a first side 141 and a connecting side 142. Two first sides 141 are provided, and the two first sides 141 are arranged opposite to each other. The connecting side 142 connects the two first sides 141. Optionally, the connecting side 142 is an arc-shaped side.

[0098] Reference Figure 1h As shown, in one embodiment, the first sub-protrusion 1610 has two oppositely arranged first sub-sides 1611, and the second sub-protrusion 1620 has two oppositely arranged second sub-sides 1621. The first sub-sides 1611 and the second sub-sides 1621 together constitute the second side, and the first side 141, the first sub-sides 1611 and the second sub-sides 1621 are arranged in parallel.

[0099] In this specific example, the first sub-side 1611 of the first sub-protrusion 1610 and the second sub-side 1621 of the second sub-protrusion 1620 are both arranged parallel to the first side 141 of the voice coil 14. This helps to maintain the uniformity of the magnetic gap, thereby ensuring the stable movement of the voice coil 14 within the magnetic gap.

[0100] To be more specific, refer to Figure 1e As shown, the voice coil 14 is roughly rectangular, which makes its shape more compatible with the outline of the sound-generating device. The four first protrusions 140 are located at the four corners of the rectangle, which reduces stress concentration in the voice coil 14 and improves its service life.

[0101] In this specific example, the inner magnetic part 16 includes an inner magnet 161 and an inner magnetic plate 162. The shape of the inner magnet 161 and the shape of the inner magnetic plate 162 are matched with the voice coil 14, which further ensures the compatibility of the voice coil 14 with the magnetic circuit system and improves the utilization rate of the voice coil 14 to the magnetic field gap formed in the magnetic circuit system.

[0102] More specifically, the shapes of the inner magnet 161 and the inner magnetic plate 162 are matched with the voice coil 14, that is, both the inner magnet 161 and the inner magnetic plate 162 are approximately rectangular, and the protrusions formed by the extension of the inner magnet 161 are located at the four corners, and the protrusions formed by the extension of the inner magnetic plate 162 are also located at the four corners. That is, the first sub-protrusion 1610 is located at the four corners, and the second sub-protrusion 1620 is also located at the four corners.

[0103] Furthermore, the side magnetic section 17 includes a side magnet 171 and a side magnetic guide plate 172. The notch includes both the notch structure formed by the side magnet 171 and the notch structure formed by the side magnetic guide plate 172. In addition, the side magnetic section 17 includes two opposing third sides at the notch; wherein the third sides are parallel to the first side 141. This ensures a uniform width of the magnetic gap, allowing the voice coil 14 to vibrate in a stable magnetic field.

[0104] In this specific example, the side magnetic part 17 includes a side magnet 171 and a side magnetic guide plate 172. Furthermore, the third sub-side 1710 of the side magnet 171 and the fourth sub-side 1720 of the side magnetic guide plate 172 are both arranged parallel to the first side 141 of the voice coil 14. This helps to further ensure the uniformity of the magnetic gap width, so that the voice coil 14 vibrates in a stable magnetic field and improves the performance of the sound-generating device.

[0105] To be more specific, refer to Figure 1h As shown, four side magnets 171 and four side magnetic plates 172 are provided. More specifically, the side magnets 171 include two first side magnets 1711 and two second side magnets 1712; the side magnetic plates 172 include two first side magnetic plates 1721 and two second side magnetic plates 1722. The two first side magnets 1711 and the two first side magnetic plates 1721 correspond to the long rectangular side of the voice coil 14 and are relatively long; the two second side magnets 1712 and the two second side magnetic plates 1722 correspond to the short rectangular side of the voice coil 14 and are relatively short.

This arrangement simplifies the assembly process of the sound-generating device, improves production efficiency, and enhances the connection reliability of the second diaphragm 12. Furthermore, since the outer edge of the second diaphragm 12 is sandwiched between the first casing 101 and the second casing 102, the height of the outer casing 10 can be adjusted according to the amplitude requirements of the sound-generating device 1 to increase or decrease the vibration space between the intermediate septum 13 and the second diaphragm 12, thereby adapting to the needs of different products. Meanwhile, referring to… Figure 1a , Figure 1b As shown, the elastic support 15 is connected to the second diaphragm 12, and the inner edge of the second diaphragm 12 is connected to the first diaphragm 11, ensuring that the elastic support 15 achieves vertical constraint of the vibration system, improves vibration consistency, and reduces the risk of poor product performance caused by the polarization of the vibration system under large amplitude.

In the electronic device of this application embodiment, the rear sound outlet channel connects to the electronic device cavity 30, expanding the rear cavity space of the sound-generating module. This facilitates the diffusion of sound waves in the rear cavity, reduces the reaction force on the compressed air in the rear cavity during vibration when the effective vibration area of ​​the vibration system increases, thereby enabling large-amplitude vibration of the vibration system and improving the sound quality of the sound-generating module. Furthermore, the larger cavity volume provides better heat dissipation space, helping to reduce the temperature of the sound-generating module, thus improving its stability and service life.
