Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising an..." does not exclude the presence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article or device comprising such element.
[0094] The present application provides a headset 100, which can be used in cooperation with electronic products such as mobile phones, tablet computers, laptop computers, etc., to receive the sound information provided by the electronic products and output it to the user. By using the headset 100 in cooperation with the electronic products, the external sound of the electronic products can be avoided from disturbing others. The headset 100 can be a wireless headset or a wired headset.
[0095] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 which is a schematic structural diagram of the headset 100 provided by some embodiments of the present application; Figure 2 is Figure 1 the exploded structural diagram of the headset 100 shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The headset 100 shown in
[0096] It can be understood that Figure 1 , Figure 2 and the related drawings below only schematically show some components included in the headset 100, and the actual shape, actual size, actual position and actual structure of these components are not limited by Figure 1 , Figure 2 and the drawings below. In addition, when the headset 100 is a wired headset, the wired headset may not include the battery 3, the wireless communication module 6 and the wireless charging module 5.
[0097] The housing 1 can be used as a carrier for the functional devices in the headset 100 to protect the functional devices located in the accommodation space 10 of the housing 1. And when the user wears the headset 100, the headset 100 contacts the user's ear through the housing 1. Therefore, in order to improve the comfort of the user wearing the headset 100, the housing 1 can be adapted to the shape of the human ear in terms of its external shape.
[0098] Since the housing 1 is directly exposed to the external environment and contacts the human ear. Or the earphone 100 contacts other external structures through the housing 1. This inevitably leads to problems such as scratches and corrosion on the outer surface of the housing 1. To avoid this technical problem, the housing 1 can have certain wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant, scratch-resistant properties, or a functional material for wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and scratch-resistant can be coated on the outer surface of the housing 1.
[0099] In some embodiments, the housing 1 can be a structural whole, that is to say, the housing 1 can be an integrally formed part, and the integrally formed housing 1 has higher structural strength. In other embodiments, the housing 1 can also be formed by assembling multiple parts. Please continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in this embodiment, the housing 1 can include a front shell 11 and a rear shell 12. Among them, the front shell 11 faces the human ear when the earphone 100 is in use, and the rear shell 12 faces away from the human ear when the earphone 100 is in use. The housing 1 is formed by assembling the front shell 11 and the rear shell 12, which can facilitate the separate processing of the front shell 11 and the rear shell 12, is beneficial to simplifying the mold structures of the front shell 11 and the rear shell 12, thereby reducing the forming difficulty of the front shell 11 and the rear shell 12, and further reducing the processing and manufacturing difficulty of the housing 1. Specifically, the front shell 11 can be fixedly connected to the rear shell 12 by a snap-fit method. The front shell 11 can also be connected to the rear shell 12 by screws. Or, in other embodiments, the front shell 11 can also be fixedly connected to the rear shell 12 by glue or tape.
[0100] The material of the front shell 11 includes but is not limited to hard plastic, metal, and the combination of plastic and metal. To achieve the lightweight of the earphone 100, the material of the front shell 11 can be selected as hard plastic.
[0101] Please refer to Figure 2 , a first accommodation cavity 101 is formed in the front shell 11, and one side of the first accommodation cavity 101 adjacent to the rear shell 12 is open. An sound outlet hole 110 communicating with the first accommodation cavity 101 is formed on the front shell 11, and the sound of the earphone 100 can be conducted to the outside of the earphone 100 through the sound outlet hole 110.
[0102] Specifically, the front shell 11 can include a main body part 111 and an extension part 112. The extension part 112 can be located on one side of the main body part 111 and extend in a direction away from the main body part 111. Please refer to Figure 2 , the above-mentioned first accommodation cavity 101 can be formed in the main body part 111, and the above-mentioned sound outlet hole 110 can be formed in the extension part 112. It can be understood that, in other embodiments, the front shell 11 may not include the extension part 112, but directly form the sound outlet hole 110 on the wall surface of the main body part 111.
[0103] To improve the comfort of the user wearing the earphone 100, the earphone 100 may further be provided with a contact sleeve 13, which can be used to contact the user's ear. For example, the contact sleeve 13 can be disposed around the outer peripheral surface of the extension portion 112, and the contact sleeve 13 can be similar in shape to the shape of the human ear canal in appearance to improve the adaptability of wearing the earphone 100. At the same time, the contact sleeve 13 can be made of flexible materials such as silica gel and rubber to improve the comfort of the user wearing the earphone 100.
[0104] Please refer to Figure 2 , a limiting rib 1121 can be formed on the outer peripheral surface of the extension portion 112, so that when the contact sleeve 13 is disposed around the outer peripheral surface of the extension portion 112, the limiting rib 1121 can abut against the contact sleeve 13, thereby playing a role in limiting the contact sleeve 13 and reducing the probability of the contact sleeve 13 falling off the extension portion 112 naturally. Of course, in order to reduce costs, the earphone 100 may not include the contact sleeve 13.
[0105] The material of the rear shell 12 can be the same as the material of the above-mentioned front shell 11. Of course, the material of the rear shell 12 can also be different from the material of the above-mentioned front shell 11. In order to achieve the light weight of the earphone 100, the material of the rear shell 12 can be selected as a hard plastic.
[0106] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 , the rear shell 12 can include a cover body 121 and a rod body 122. The cover body 121 can be connected to the front shell 11, and the rod body 122 can be disposed on a side of the cover body 121 away from the front shell 11. A second receiving cavity 102 can be formed in the cover body 121, and a side of the second receiving cavity 102 adjacent to the front shell 11 is open, so that the second receiving cavity 102 can communicate with the first receiving cavity 101, and the second receiving cavity 102 and the first receiving cavity 101 can jointly form the accommodation space 10 of the housing 1.
[0107] The cover body 121 and the rod body 122 can be an integral structure, that is to say, the cover body 121 and the rod body 122 are a whole structure. This can simplify the processing and manufacturing process of the rear shell 12 and improve the connection strength between the cover body 121 and the rod body 122. Of course, this application is not limited thereto, and the cover body 121 and the rod body 122 can also be assembled, and the cover body 121 and the rod body 122 are connected by means such as gluing, snap connection, screw connection or welding.
[0108] The circuit board 2 can be accommodated in the accommodation space 10. Specifically, the circuit board 2 can be installed in the second receiving cavity 102. The installation method of the circuit board 2 in the housing 1 includes but is not limited to snap connection, screw connection or gluing.
[0109] The circuit board 2 is used to integrate control chips, etc. The control chips may be, for example, an application processor (AP), a double data rate synchronous dynamic random access memory (DDR), and a universal storage (UFS). The circuit board 2 is electrically connected to functional devices such as a wireless communication module 6, a wireless charging module 5, a battery 3, and a speaker module 4 to achieve operations such as signal control and data signal processing between different functional devices.
[0110] The circuit board 2 can be a hard circuit board, a flexible circuit board, or a hard-soft circuit board. The circuit board 22 can be a FR-medium board, a Rogers dielectric board, or a mixed dielectric board of FR- and Rogers, etc. Here, FR- is a code for a flame retardant material grade, and the Rogers dielectric board is a high-frequency board.
[0111] The wireless communication module 6 can be integrated on the circuit board 2. Exemplarily, the wireless communication module 6 can be welded and fixed on the circuit board 2. Optionally, the wireless communication module 6 can be a Bluetooth, infrared or wifi module. The headset 100 can perform wireless signal interaction with the electronic product through the wireless communication module 6 to receive the sound information of the electronic product.
[0112] The battery 3 is used to provide power to functional components in the headset 100, such as the circuit board 2, the wireless communication module 6, the speaker module 4, etc. The battery 3 may include, but is not limited to, a nickel-cadmium battery, a nickel-metal hydride battery, a lithium battery, or other types of batteries. In addition, the number of batteries 3 in the embodiment of the present application may be multiple or one. The shape of the battery 3 includes, but is not limited to, a rectangular parallelepiped, a cylinder, or a truncated cone. In some examples, the battery 3 may be located in the second accommodating cavity 102, and the battery 3 is located on the side of the circuit board 2 close to the first accommodating cavity 101. In other examples, the battery 3 may also be located on the side of the circuit board 2 that is away from the first accommodating cavity 101. The installation method of the battery 3 in the housing 1 includes, but is not limited to, snap-on, screw connection, or gluing.
[0113] The wireless charging module 5 can be integrated on the circuit board 2 and wirelessly charge the battery 3 in the headset 100. For details, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 for Figures 1-2 Schematic diagram of charging connection between the headset 100 and the wireless charging base 200 shown in FIG. In this embodiment, the wireless charging module 5 includes: a power receiving coil 51, an AC / DC conversion component 52, and a charging control component 53. The power receiving coil 51, the AC / DC conversion component 52, and the charging control component 53 are all electrically connected to the circuit board 2.
[0114] The power receiving coil 51 can receive the wireless charging input of the wireless charging base 200 of the earphone 100. Of course, this application is not limited thereto, and the power receiving coil 51 can also receive the wireless charging input of other terminals supporting wireless charging. The power receiving coil 51 is a receiving (Rx) coil. The AC / DC conversion component 52 can be an Rx chip.
[0115] The wireless charging base 200 includes a power interface 203, a charging coil 201, and an AC / DC conversion component 202. The charging coil 201 can be a transmitting (Tx) coil. The AC / DC conversion component 202 can be a Tx chip.
[0116] In the embodiment of this application, the wireless charging base 200 serves as the transmitting end of the wireless charging signal, and the earphone 100 serves as the receiving end of the wireless charging signal. The wireless charging base 200 wirelessly charges the earphone 100. Specifically, the AC / DC conversion component 202 of the wireless charging base 200 can receive the DC signal input from the power interface 203. The AC / DC conversion component 202 can convert the DC signal into an AC signal and then input the AC signal to the charging coil 201. In response to the AC signal, the charging coil 201 can generate an alternating electromagnetic field.
[0117] The power receiving coil 51 of the earphone 100 is coupled with the charging coil 201. The power receiving coil 51 (i.e., the Rx coil) can induce the alternating electromagnetic field emitted by the charging coil 201 (i.e., the Tx coil), generate an AC signal, and input the AC signal to the AC / DC conversion component 52. The AC / DC conversion component 52 can rectify the AC signal into a DC signal and input the DC signal to the charging control component 53. The charging control component 53 can charge the battery 3 according to the DC signal.
[0118] Of course, this application is not limited thereto. In some other examples, the earphone 100 can also support wired charging. Specifically, a charging interface is provided on the housing 1. The charging interface is electrically connected to the circuit board 2. The charging interface can be connected to a wired charger (also called a power adapter) to receive the charging input of the wired charger for the battery 3. For example, the above-mentioned charging interface can be a universal serial bus (USB) interface.
[0119] Please refer back to Figure 2, the speaker module 4 can be installed in the accommodation space 10, and the speaker module 4 is located on the side of the battery 3 close to the sound outlet hole 110. Specifically, the speaker module 4 can be installed in the first accommodation cavity 101. The assembly method between the speaker module 4 and the housing 1 includes but is not limited to snap connection, threaded connection or gluing, etc. The speaker module 4 is electrically connected to the circuit board 2 to obtain audio electrical signals such as music and voice, and the speaker module 4 can convert the audio electrical signals into sound signals to support audio external playback.
[0120] In the earphone 100 of the above embodiment, the speaker module 4 adopted is a moving coil type bass speaker. Although this can enable the earphone 100 to have a low-frequency sound field performance and make the cost of the earphone 100 cheap. However, the moving coil type bass speaker has a large vibration mass and poor transient characteristics, and the asymmetric distribution of the mass distribution, the compliance of the diaphragm and the BL electromagnetic driving force will generate different degrees of rocking vibration and splitting vibration of different frequencies, resulting in serious peaks and valleys in the high-frequency response, unable to achieve high-frequency sound field performance, resulting in poor audio external playback performance and poor sound effect of the earphone 100.
[0121] Please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 is a cross-sectional view of the earphone 100 provided by some other embodiments of the present application. In this embodiment, the speaker module 4 includes a first speaker unit 4a and a second speaker unit 4b.
[0122] The first speaker unit 4a and the second speaker unit 4b are spaced apart and arranged in the housing 1. Both the first speaker unit 4a and the second speaker unit 4b emit sound towards the sound outlet hole 110. The sound emission frequency of the second speaker unit 4b is greater than that of the first speaker unit 4a. Thus, by making the earphone 100 include the first speaker unit 4a and the second speaker unit 4b with different sound emission frequencies, it is beneficial to utilize the sound emission frequency difference between the first speaker unit 4a and the second speaker unit 4b, so that the earphone 100 has good sound expressiveness in sound fields of different frequencies and improves the sound output effect of the speaker module 4.
[0123] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first speaker unit 4a can be used as a bass speaker. Exemplarily, the first speaker unit 4a can be a moving coil type bass speaker. The second speaker unit 4b can be a treble speaker. Exemplarily, the second speaker unit 4b can be a moving iron speaker unit, a planar voice coil speaker unit or a piezoelectric ceramic speaker unit.
[0124] In the embodiment of the present application, the first speaker unit 4a is used as a bass speaker and the second speaker unit 4b is used as a treble speaker, so that the earphone 100 can take into account the expressiveness in the low-frequency sound field and the high-frequency sound field and improve the sound output effect of the speaker module 4.
[0125] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , Figure 5 which is Figure 4 a schematic structural diagram of the first speaker unit 4a of the earphone shown in Figure 6 and Figure 5 is a schematic cross-sectional structural diagram of the first speaker unit 4a shown in. In this embodiment, the first speaker unit 4a includes a first diaphragm group 4a21, a first voice coil 4a22, a first magnetic circuit system 4a23, a chassis 4a24, and a terminal 4a25.
[0126] It can be understood that Figure 5 and Figure 6 and the related drawings below only schematically show some components included in the first speaker unit 4a, and the actual sizes, actual positions, and actual structures of these components are not limited by Figure 5 and Figure 6 and the respective drawings below.
[0127] Specifically, the first speaker unit 4a is fixed in the housing 1 by means of the chassis 4a24. The assembly method between the chassis 4a24 and the housing 1 includes but is not limited to snap connection, threaded connection, or gluing, etc. The chassis 4a24 serves as the "supporting framework" of the first speaker unit 4a and is used to support the first diaphragm group 4a21, the first voice coil 4a22, and the first magnetic circuit system 4a23. The material of the chassis 4a24 includes but is not limited to metal, plastic, and the combination of metal and plastic. The chassis 4a24 can be an integrally formed part, that is to say, the chassis 4a24 is a monolithic structure. In this way, it is beneficial to improve the connection strength of the chassis 4a24. Of course, the present application is not limited to this, and the chassis 4a24 can also be formed by assembling different components, and different components can be connected by means of snap connection, threaded connection, gluing, or welding, etc.
[0128] Please continue to refer to Figure 6, an annular groove 4a2413 is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the basin frame 4a24, which is recessed in a direction away from the central axis of the basin frame 4a24. The annular groove 4a2413 extends circumferentially along the basin frame 4a24 to form an annulus, and the annular groove 4a2413 penetrates through to the end face of the open end of the basin frame 4a24, that is, the end face facing the sound outlet hole 110. The outer edge of the first diaphragm group 4a21 is received in the annular groove 4a2413 and fixed to the wall surface of the annular groove 4a2413 facing the sound outlet hole 110. By receiving the outer edge of the first diaphragm group 4a21 in the annular groove 4a2413 and fixing it to the wall surface of the annular groove 4a2413 facing the sound outlet hole 110, it is beneficial to effectively support the first diaphragm group 4a21 by using the annular groove 4a2413. At the same time, the setting of the annular groove 4a2413 can increase the volume of the space inside the basin frame 4a24, which is beneficial to setting the size of the first diaphragm group 4a21 larger, and further beneficial to increasing the effective vibration area of the first diaphragm group 4a21 and improving the sound output effect of the first speaker unit 4a. It can be understood that the annular groove 4a2413 may not be provided on the basin frame 4a24, and the outer edge of the first diaphragm group 4a21 may be connected to the end face of the open end of the basin frame 4a24.
[0129] It should be noted that the effective vibration area of the diaphragm group involved in this article refers to the area of the part of the diaphragm group that can drive air movement.
[0130] The outer surface of the first diaphragm group 4a21 faces the sound outlet hole 110, so that the first speaker unit 4a can emit sound toward the sound outlet hole 110. The first speaker unit 4a can divide the housing 1 into a front cavity C1 and a rear cavity C2 with the help of the first diaphragm group 4a21 (in combination Figure 4 ). The first voice coil 4a22, the first magnetic circuit system 4a23 and the basin frame 4a24 are located in the rear cavity C2. The sound outlet hole 110 is communicated with the front cavity C1. Of course, this application is not limited to this. In some other examples, the first speaker unit 4a may further include a housing. The first speaker unit 4a is fixed in the housing 1 by means of the housing. The basin frame 4a24 is fixed to the inner wall of the housing. The first diaphragm group 4a21 divides the housing into a front cavity and a rear cavity, and the front cavity of the housing is communicated with the sound outlet hole 110.
[0131] Among them, it should be explained that the "outer surface" of the first diaphragm group 4a21 refers to the side surface of the first diaphragm group 4a21 that faces away from the inside of the basin frame 4a24, and the inner surface of the first diaphragm group 4a21 faces the opposite side of the outer surface of the first diaphragm group 4a21.
[0132] Please continue to refer to Figure 6 , the first diaphragm group 4a21 includes: a first connecting portion 4a211, a first surround 4a212, and a first dome 4a213 surrounded by the first surround 4a212.
[0133] The first connecting portion 4a211 is in the shape of an annular sheet. For example, the first connecting portion 4a211 is in the shape of a circular ring or a rectangular ring. The first connecting portion 4a211 is laminated on the wall surface of the annular groove 4a2413 facing the sound outlet hole 110, so that the first diaphragm group 4a21 is connected to the speaker frame 4a24 by means of the first connecting portion 4a211. The connection manner between the first connecting portion 4a211 and the annular groove 4a2413 includes but is not limited to gluing, snap connection, welding or screw connection.
[0134] The outer peripheral edge of the first surround 4a212 is connected to the inner peripheral edge of the first connecting portion 4a211. The cross-sectional shape of the first surround 4a212 is arc-shaped or approximately arc-shaped. The extending locus of the first surround 4a212 along the circumferential direction of the speaker frame 4a24 is circular or rectangular. The first surround 4a212 protrudes towards the sound outlet hole 110. In this way, the first surround 4a212 can be deformed when subjected to an external force, so that the first dome 4a213 can vibrate axially relative to the first connecting portion 4a211 along the first diaphragm group 4a21. Of course, it can be understood that the first surround 4a212 can also protrude towards the direction away from the sound outlet hole 110.
[0135] In some examples, the first diaphragm group 4a21 is an integrally formed part. That is to say, the first connecting portion 4a211, the first surround 4a212 and the first dome 4a213 are an integral structure. Such a setting is beneficial to improving the structural strength of the first diaphragm group 4a21 and facilitating the processing and manufacturing of the first diaphragm group 4a21. Of course, the present application is not limited thereto. The first connecting portion 4a211, the first surround 4a212 and the first dome 4a213 can also be independently formed parts. The first connecting portion 4a211 and the first surround 4a212 can be connected by gluing, and the first surround 4a212 and the first dome 4a213 can be connected by gluing. The material of the first diaphragm group 4a21 includes but is not limited to metal, plastic, plant fiber and animal fiber.
[0136] The first voice coil 4a22 is connected to the inner surface of the first dome 4a213 (i.e., the surface on the side away from the sound outlet hole 110). The connection manner between the first voice coil 4a22 and the first dome 4a213 includes but is not limited to gluing.
[0137] The first magnetic circuit system 4a23 is fixed within the chassis 4a24. The first magnetic circuit system 4a23 has an annular magnetic gap 4a23a. One end of the first voice coil 4a22, which is away from the first diaphragm assembly 4a21, can extend into the magnetic gap 4a23a. In this way, the first magnetic circuit system 4a23 can cooperate with the first voice coil 4a22 to drive the first diaphragm assembly 4a21 to vibrate synchronously. Specifically, after the first voice coil 4a22 is energized, an induced magnetic field can be generated. The first magnetic circuit system 4a23 can respond to this induced magnetic field, so that the first voice coil 4a22 is displaced under the magnetic force of the first magnetic circuit system 4a23 to drive the first diaphragm assembly 4a21 to vibrate, pushing the air in the front cavity C1 to vibrate to form sound, and this sound is output from the sound outlet hole 110.
[0138] Please continue to refer to Figure 6 , the first magnetic circuit system 4a23 includes: a side magnetic part 4a231, a first central magnetic part 4a232, and a second central magnetic part 4a233. The side magnetic part 4a231 is located on the outer periphery of the first central magnetic part 4a232 to define the magnetic gap 4a23a with the first central magnetic part 4a232. The magnetization directions of the side magnetic part 4a231 and the first central magnetic part 4a232 are opposite, so that the side magnetic part 4a231 and the first central magnetic part 4a232 can form a magnetic circuit for driving the first voice coil 4a22 to move. Exemplarily, along the axial direction of the chassis 4a24 and towards the direction away from the first diaphragm assembly 4a21, the magnetization direction of the side magnetic part 4a231 is from the north pole (N) to the south pole (S), and the magnetization direction of the first central magnetic part 4a232 is from the south pole (S) to the north pole (N).
[0139] Please continue to refer to Figure 6 , the side magnetic part 4a231 can be formed into an annular shape. For example, the side magnetic part 4a231 is formed into a circular ring or a rectangular ring. Of course, it can be understood that the side magnetic part 4a231 can also be non-annular, and there are multiple side magnetic parts 4a231, and the multiple side magnetic parts 4a231 are spaced apart and distributed in the circumferential direction of the first central magnetic part 4a232.
[0140] The second central magnetic part 4a233 plugs one end of the side magnetic part 4a231 that is away from the first diaphragm assembly 4a21, and the first central magnetic part 4a232 and the second central magnetic part 4a233 are stacked. The second central magnetic part 4a233 and the side magnetic part 4a231 can be an integrally formed part. That is to say, the second central magnetic part 4a233 and the side magnetic part 4a231 can be a structural whole. Of course, the present application is not limited to this, and the second central magnetic part 4a233 and the side magnetic part 4a231 can also be connected by means such as gluing, snap connection, and screw connection.
[0141] Specifically, the second central magnetic part 4a233 can be a magnetic conductive material piece. In this way, the leakage of magnetic force lines can be restricted by the second central magnetic part 4a233, and the magnetic induction intensity of the first magnetic circuit system 4a23 can be increased. Of course, the present application is not limited thereto. In some other examples, the second central magnetic part 4a233 can be a magnet. Specifically, the magnet is a permanent magnet or a magnetic steel.
[0142] In some examples, both the side magnetic part 4a231 and the first central magnetic part 4a232 can be magnets. Exemplarily, both the side magnetic part 4a231 and the first central magnetic part 4a232 are permanent magnets or magnetic steels. Of course, the present application is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, one of the side magnetic part 4a231 and the first central magnetic part 4a232 is a magnet, and the other is a magnetic conductive material piece.
[0143] To increase the magnetic induction intensity of the first magnetic circuit system 4a23, the first magnetic circuit system 4a23 further includes a magnetic conductive yoke 4a234. The magnetic conductive yoke 4a234 is provided on the side of the first central magnetic part 4a232 facing the first diaphragm group 4a21, and is used to restrict the leakage of magnetic force lines, thereby improving the driving force on the first diaphragm group 4a21.
[0144] Specifically, the outer peripheral surface of the magnetic conductive yoke 4a234 is flush with the outer peripheral surface of the first central magnetic part 4a232 in the axial direction of the first magnetic circuit system 4a23. In this way, it is beneficial to further improve the effect of the magnetic conductive yoke 4a234 on restricting magnetic force lines, increase the magnetic induction intensity of the first magnetic circuit system 4a23, and the magnetic conductive yoke 4a234 does not affect the magnetic gap 4a23a, which is beneficial to improving the adaptability between the first magnetic circuit system 4a23 and the first voice coil 4a22.
[0145] Please refer to Figure 5 , the wiring terminal 4a25 is provided on the chassis 4a24. Specifically, the wiring terminal 4a25 is located outside the chassis 4a24. Exemplarily, the wiring terminal 4a25 can protrude from the outer peripheral surface of the chassis 4a24. Another example is that a groove can be formed on the outer peripheral surface of the chassis 4a24, and the wiring terminal 4a25 can be located in the groove. Regarding the setting method of the wiring terminal 4a25, those skilled in the art can design it according to actual needs, as long as it is ensured that the wiring terminal 4a25 is located outside the chassis 4a24.
[0146] The wiring terminal 4a25 includes a positive wiring terminal 4a252 and a negative wiring terminal 4a251.
[0147] The positive wiring terminal 4a252 is provided with a conductive wiring part located inside the chassis 4a24. The conductive wiring part can be electrically connected to the positive lead of the first voice coil 4a22. In some examples, the positive lead of the first voice coil 4a22 and the conductive wiring part can be connected by welding.
[0148] The negative terminal 4a251 is provided with a conductive extension portion located within the chassis 4a24. The conductive extension portion can be electrically connected to the negative lead of the first voice coil 4a22. In some examples, the negative lead of the first voice coil 4a22 and the conductive extension portion can be connected by soldering.
[0149] In the embodiments of the present application, since both the positive lead and the negative lead of the first voice coil 4a22 are relatively thin, their structural strength is relatively weak and they are easily scratched and damaged. Therefore, by electrically connecting the conductive wiring portion located within the chassis 4a24 to the positive lead of the first voice coil 4a22, the length of the positive lead can be shortened, avoiding the problem of scratching and damage between the positive lead and the chassis 4a24; by electrically connecting the conductive extension portion located within the chassis 4a24 to the negative lead of the first voice coil 4a22, the length of the negative lead can be shortened, avoiding the problem of scratching and damage between the negative lead and the chassis 4a24, which is beneficial to improving the reliability of the operation of the first voice coil 4a22.
[0150] The first speaker unit 4a is electrically connected to the circuit board 2 through the positive terminal 4a252 and the negative terminal 4a251, so as to obtain audio electrical signals such as music and voice.
[0151] As described above, the first speaker unit 4a and the second speaker unit 4b are spaced apart within the housing 1. In this way, the first speaker unit 4a and the second speaker unit 4b need to be respectively installed with the housing 1, resulting in a relatively complex assembly process, low assembly efficiency, and the spaced-apart arrangement of the first speaker unit 4a and the second speaker unit 4b within the housing 1 is also not conducive to the structural compactness of the speaker module 4. To solve this technical problem, in the embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 7 which is a partial structural schematic diagram of the earphone 100 provided in some other embodiments of the present application; Figure 8 is Figure 7 a structural schematic diagram of the speaker module 4 of the earphone 100 shown in. In this embodiment, the speaker module 4 further includes a bracket 4c. The second speaker unit 4b can be connected to the chassis 4a24 of the first speaker unit 4a by means of the bracket 4c, so as to realize the fixed connection between the first speaker unit 4a and the second speaker unit 4b. When installing the speaker module 4, it is beneficial to install the speaker module 4 as a whole into the housing 1, so that it is not necessary to separately install the first speaker unit 4a and the second speaker unit 4b into the housing 1, which can simplify the installation of the speaker module 4 and also achieve the structural compactness of the speaker module 4.
[0152] Specifically, please refer to Figure 9 , Figure 9 is Figure 8The structural diagram of the bracket 4c in the speaker module 4 is shown. In this embodiment, the bracket 4c includes a support plate 4c1 and a connecting portion 4c2.
[0153] The support plate 4c1 is located on one side of the axial direction of the first speaker unit 4a, and the support plate 4c1 is opposite to the outer surface of the first diaphragm group 4a21 of the first speaker unit 4a, and the second speaker unit 4b is supported on the side of the support plate 4c1 away from the first speaker unit 4a, that is, the second speaker unit 4b is supported on the side of the support plate 4c1 facing the sound outlet 110. Therefore, the second speaker unit 4b can be supported by the support plate 4c1 to facilitate the installation of the second speaker unit 4b. The connection method between the second speaker unit 4b and the support plate 4c1 includes but is not limited to gluing, clamping, welding or screw connection.
[0154] In order to prevent the support plate 4c1 and the second speaker unit 4b from blocking the transmission of the sound generated by the vibration of the first diaphragm group 4a21, thereby affecting the sound effect of the first speaker unit 4a, please continue to refer to Figure 9 , and combined with Figure 8 , a first sound transmission channel 4c11 is formed on the support plate 4c1, and the second speaker unit 4b does not cover the first sound transmission channel 4c11, so that the sound emitted by the first diaphragm group 4a21 vibrating and pushing the air to vibrate can be transmitted toward the sound outlet 110 through the first sound transmission channel 4c11. The number of the first sound transmission channels 4c11 can be multiple or one. Exemplarily, the support plate 4c1 is formed in a ring shape to define the first sound transmission channel 4c11, and the second speaker unit 4b is formed in a ring shape extending along the circumference of the support plate 4c1 to define the avoidance channel 4b3, and the avoidance channel 4b3 is connected to the first sound transmission channel 4c11. Of course, the present application is not limited to this. In other examples, the second speaker unit 4b may not be ring-shaped, and the second speaker unit 4b may cover a portion of the support plate 4c1. Exemplarily, the second speaker unit 4b may be arranged away from the center of the support plate 4c1.
[0155] The outer contour of the support plate 4c1 is circular, rectangular, triangular, trapezoidal or irregular. The material of the support plate 4c1 includes but is not limited to metal, plastic and a combination of metal and plastic.
[0156] The connecting portion 4c2 is connected between the outer peripheral edge of the support plate 4c1 and the peripheral wall of the chassis 4a24, so that the second speaker unit 4b can be fixed to the chassis 4a24 by means of the connecting portion 4c2. In some examples, the connecting portion 4c2 and the support plate 4c1 can be integrally formed, that is to say, the connecting portion 4c2 and the support plate 4c1 can be a whole structure, in this way, it is beneficial to improve the connection strength between the connecting portion 4c2 and the support plate 4c1. In other examples, the connecting portion 4c2 can also be connected to the support plate 4c1 by means of gluing, snap connection, welding or screw connection. The connection methods between the connecting portion 4c2 and the chassis 4a24 include but are not limited to snap connection, gluing, welding and screw connection. The materials of the connecting portion 4c2 include but are not limited to metals, plastics and combinations of metals and plastics.
[0157] Specifically, please continue to refer to Figure 9 , the connecting portion 4c2 includes at least two sub-parts 4c21, and the at least two sub-parts 4c21 are spaced apart in the circumferential direction of the support plate 4c1, and each sub-part is connected between the outer peripheral edge of the support plate 4c1 and the peripheral wall of the chassis 4a24.
[0158] Please continue to refer to Figure 9 , each sub-part 4c21 extends into a plate shape in the circumferential direction of the support plate 4c1. With such a setting, while reducing the volume and weight of the bracket 4c, it is also helpful to improve the structural strength of the sub-part 4c21, thereby improving the connection reliability between the bracket 4c and the chassis 4a24, and further improving the fixing reliability of the bracket 4c to the first speaker unit 4a and the second speaker unit 4b.
[0159] Specifically, please continue to refer to Figure 9 , a snap hole 4c211 is formed on each sub-part 4c21, and a snap rib (not shown in the figure) is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the chassis 4a24, and the snap rib is snapped into the snap hole 4c211, so as to realize the detachable connection between the bracket 4c and the chassis 4a24. Of course, the present application is not limited to this. In other embodiments, a snap rib can also be formed on each sub-part 4c21, and a snap hole can be formed on the outer peripheral surface of the chassis 4a24, and the snap rib is snapped into the snap hole, and the detachable connection between the bracket 4c and the chassis 4a24 can also be realized.
[0160] Since the support plate 4c1 is spaced apart from the first speaker unit 4a, by connecting the sub-part 4c21 between the outer peripheral edge of the support plate 4c1 and the peripheral wall of the chassis 4a24. In this way, a sound transmission channel 4c23 can be formed between two adjacent sub-parts 4c21, so as to transmit the sound generated by the vibration of the first diaphragm group 4a21 by using the sound transmission channel 4c23, and improve the sound emission effect of the first speaker unit 4a.
[0161] To prevent the sub - part 4c21 from blocking the first speaker unit 4a and affecting the sound transmission of the first speaker unit 4a, and to improve the sound output effect of the first speaker unit 4a, please continue to refer to Figure 9 , a second sound transmission channel 4c24 is formed on the part of each sub - part 4c21 located between the first diaphragm group 4a21 and the support plate 4c1. Of course, this application is not limited to this, and the second sound transmission channel 4c24 may not be provided on the sub - part 4c21.
[0162] To further improve the sound transmission effect of the sound transmission channel 4c23 on the sound emitted by the first speaker unit 4a, please refer to Figure 10 , Figure 10 For Figure 8 Another perspective schematic diagram of the speaker module 4 shown. In the plane parallel to the first diaphragm group 4a21, a part of the orthographic projection of the sound transmission channel 4c23 is located within the outer contour of the orthographic projection of the first diaphragm group 4a21.
[0163] To further improve the sound transmission effect of the second sound transmission channel 4c24 on the sound of the first speaker unit 4a, please continue to refer to Figure 10 , in the plane parallel to the first diaphragm group 4a21, the orthographic projection of the second sound transmission channel 4c24 is located within the outer contour of the orthographic projection of the first diaphragm group 4a21. In this way, the second sound transmission channel 4c24 can be opposite to the first diaphragm group 4a21 in the axial direction of the first speaker unit 4a, which is more conducive to the sound output of the first speaker unit 4a and ensures the sound output effect of the first speaker unit 4a.
[0164] Please refer to Figure 11 , Figure 11 This is a schematic structural diagram of the bracket 4c in some other embodiments of the present application. Figure 11 The structure of the bracket 4c shown is different from the structure of the bracket 4c shown in Figure 9 in that the second sound transmission channel 4c24 is no longer provided on each sub - part 4c21, and each sub - part 4c21 is rod - shaped. In this way, the volume and weight of the sub - part 4c21 can be reduced, thereby reducing the weight and volume of the speaker module 4. At the same time, it also helps to increase the area of the sound transmission channel 4c23 and improve the sound output effect of the first speaker unit 4a.
[0165] Please refer to Figure 12a , Figure 12aSchematic structural diagram of the bracket 4c in some further embodiments of the present application. The connecting portion 4c2 may also not include a plurality of spaced sub-portions, and the connecting portion 4c2 is a closed annular shape extending in the entire circumferential direction of the chassis 4a24. Such an arrangement helps to improve the structural strength of the connecting portion 4c2, thereby improving the connection reliability between the bracket 4c and the chassis 4a24, and further improving the fixing reliability of the bracket 4c to the first speaker unit 4a and the second speaker unit 4b.
[0166] Specifically, please continue to refer to Figure 12a , a clamping hole 4c211 is formed on the connecting portion 4c2. A clamping rib (not shown in the figure) is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the chassis 4a24, and the clamping rib is clamped into the clamping hole 4c211, thereby realizing the detachable connection between the bracket 4c and the chassis 4a24. Of course, the present application is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, a clamping rib may also be formed on the connecting portion 4c2, and a clamping hole is formed on the outer peripheral surface of the chassis 4a24, and the clamping rib is clamped into the clamping hole, and the detachable connection between the bracket 4c and the chassis 4a24 can also be realized.
[0167] In order to prevent the connecting portion 4c2 from blocking the first speaker unit 4a and affecting the sound transmission of the first speaker unit 4a and improving the sound output effect of the first speaker unit 4a, please continue to refer to Figure 12a , a second sound transmission channel 4c24 is formed on the portion of the connecting portion 4c2 located between the first diaphragm group 4a21 and the support plate 4c1. Of course, the present application is not limited thereto, and the second sound transmission channel 4c24 may not be provided on the connecting portion 4c2.
[0168] In order to further improve the sound transmission effect of the second sound transmission channel 4c24 on the sound of the first speaker unit 4a, in the plane parallel to the plane of the first diaphragm group 4a21, the orthographic projection of the second sound transmission channel 4c24 is located within the outer contour of the orthographic projection of the first diaphragm group 4a21. In this way, the second sound transmission channel 4c24 can be axially opposite to the first diaphragm group 4a21 in the first speaker unit 4a, which is more conducive to the sound output of the first speaker unit 4a and ensures the sound output effect of the first speaker unit 4a.
[0169] Please refer to Figure 12b , Figure 12b Schematic structural diagram of the bracket 4c in some other further embodiments of the present application. The difference between this embodiment and the above embodiment is that the bracket 4c may not include the support plate 4c1, but includes the connecting portion 4c2, and the second speaker unit 4b may be supported at one end of the connecting portion 4c2 away from the first speaker unit 4a.
[0170] Based on the above embodiments, in some embodiments of the present application, the bracket 4c has a conductive part, and the electrode of the second speaker unit 4b is electrically connected to the terminal 4a25 through the conductive part. In this way, the speaker module 4 can be electrically connected to the circuit board 2 through the terminal 4a25. That is to say, the negative electrode of the second speaker unit 4b can be electrically connected to the negative terminal 4a251 through the conductive part; or, the positive electrode of the second speaker unit 4b can be electrically connected to the positive terminal 4a252 through the conductive part; or, the conductive part is two insulated and separated parts, the negative electrode of the second speaker unit 4b is electrically connected to the negative terminal 4a251 through one of the conductive parts, and the positive electrode of the second speaker unit 4b is electrically connected to the positive terminal 4a252 through the other conductive part.
[0171] Optionally, when the positive electrode of the second speaker unit 4b is electrically connected to the positive terminal 4a252 through the conductive part, in order to improve the reliability of the bracket 4c and avoid short-circuit problems caused by contact between the bracket 4c and other structures in the housing 1 of the earphone 100, an insulating protective layer can be provided on the surface of the conductive part.
[0172] When the negative electrode of the second speaker unit 4b is electrically connected to the negative terminal 4a251 through the conductive part, in order to improve the reliability of the bracket 4c and avoid short-circuit problems caused by contact between the bracket 4c and other structures in the housing 1 of the earphone 100, the conductive part can be electrically connected to the ground point on the circuit board 2 to achieve grounding.
[0173] Specifically, the conductive part is at least composed of at least part of the connecting part 4c2. Specifically, the conductive part can be only composed of a part of the connecting part 4c2, the conductive part can be only composed of the connecting part 4c2, the conductive part can also be composed of a part of the connecting part 4c2 and a part of the support plate 4c2, the conductive part can also be composed of a part of the connecting part 4c2 and the entire support plate 4c2, and the conductive part can also be composed of the bracket 4c.
[0174] According to the loudspeaker module 4 of the embodiment of the present application, by making the earphone 100 include a first loudspeaker unit 4a and a second loudspeaker unit 4b with different sounding frequencies, it is beneficial to utilize the difference in the sounding frequencies of the first loudspeaker unit 4a and the second loudspeaker unit 4b, so that the earphone 100 has good sound expressiveness in sound ranges of different frequencies, and the sound output effect of the loudspeaker module is improved. Moreover, by providing a bracket 4c and fixing the chassis 4a24 of the first loudspeaker unit 4a and the second loudspeaker unit 4b by means of the bracket 4c, the first loudspeaker unit 4a and the second loudspeaker unit 4b are connected into one body, so as to facilitate modularizing the loudspeaker module 4. In this way, when the loudspeaker module 4 is installed, the first loudspeaker unit 4a and the second loudspeaker unit 4b can be installed as a whole, thus eliminating the need to separately install the first loudspeaker unit 4a and the second loudspeaker unit 4b into the housing 1 of the earphone 100, which can simplify the installation of the loudspeaker module 4 and also achieve the structural compactness of the loudspeaker module 4. In addition, by making the bracket 4c have a conductive part, and the electrode of the second loudspeaker unit 4b is electrically connected to the terminal 4a25 through the conductive part. Thus, the electrical connection relationship between the first loudspeaker unit 4a and the second loudspeaker unit 4b can be simplified to at least a certain extent, at least one signal line for electrically connecting the first loudspeaker unit 4a and the second loudspeaker unit 4b can be omitted, the structure of the entire loudspeaker module 4 is simplified, and it is also convenient for the loudspeaker module 4 to be electrically connected to the circuit board 2 through the terminal 4a25.
[0175] In some embodiments of the present application, the conductive part is a part of the bracket 4c, the conductive part can be a metal insert, and the remaining part of the bracket 4c can be a plastic part. Exemplarily, the bracket 4c is processed by an in-mold injection process. With such a setting, the processing technology is simple, and the structural strength of the bracket 4c is relatively high.
[0176] In other embodiments of the present application, the bracket 4c defines a conductive part, that is to say, the entire bracket 4c can conduct electricity. The negative electrode of the second loudspeaker unit 4b is electrically connected to the negative terminal 4a251 through the bracket 4c, and the bracket 4c is grounded. With such a setting, the structure of the bracket 4c can be simplified.
[0177] Further, please refer to Figure 13 、 Figure 14a 、 Figure 14b and Figure 15 , Figure 13 is Figure 8 a schematic diagram of another angle of the loudspeaker module 4 shown in Figure 14a is Figure 13 an enlarged view of the circled part at A of the loudspeaker module 4 shown in Figure 14b is Figure 13 a sectional view of the loudspeaker module 4 taken along the line B-B shown inFigure 15 For Figure 8 The connection schematic diagram of the bracket 4c, the second speaker unit 4b, the terminal 4a25, and the conductive member 4d of the speaker module 4 shown in the figure. The peripheral wall of the speaker frame 4a24 has a first opening 4a241. The negative terminal 4a251 is provided with a conductive extension 4a2511 located inside the speaker frame 4a24. The conductive extension 4a2511 extends to the first opening 4a241. The part of the connecting portion 4c2 facing the first opening 4a241 is connected to the conductive extension 4a2511. Exemplarily, the part of the connecting portion 4c2 facing the first opening 4a241 is connected to the conductive extension 4a2511 by welding.
[0178] In this way, not only can the electrical connection between the second speaker unit 4b and the negative terminal 4a251 be achieved through the bracket 4c, but also compared with the solution of directly electrically connecting the connecting portion 4c2 to the negative terminal 4a251, the negative terminal 4a251 does not need to extend too long outside the speaker frame 4a24, thus avoiding interference between the negative terminal 4a251 extending too long outside the speaker frame 4a24 and the structure inside the housing 1. In other examples, the first opening 4a241 may not be provided on the peripheral wall of the speaker frame 4a24, but the connecting portion 4c2 may be directly electrically connected to the negative terminal 4a251.
[0179] Please continue to refer to Figure 13 and Figure 15 , the speaker module 4 further includes a conductive member 4d. The positive electrode of the second speaker unit 4b is electrically connected to the positive terminal 4a252 through the conductive member 4d.
[0180] Optionally, in order to insulate the conductive member 4d from the bracket 4c, the conductive member 4d can be an enameled wire. Of course, the present application is not limited to this. The conductive member 4d can also be a flexible printed circuit (FPC) or a wire, as long as the insulating interval between the bracket 4c and the conductive member 4d is ensured.
[0181] Furthermore, please refer to Figure 13, the circumferential wall of the frame 4a24 has a second opening 4a242, the positive terminal 4a252 has a conductive connection portion 4a2521 located in the frame 4a24, and the conductive member 4d extends into the frame 4a24 through the second opening 4a242 and is electrically connected to the conductive connection portion 4a2521. In this way, not only can the second speaker unit 4b be electrically connected to the positive terminal 4a252 through the conductive member 4d, but also, compared with the solution of directly electrically connecting the conductive member 4d to the positive terminal 4a252, the positive terminal 4a252 does not need to extend too long outside the frame 4a24, thereby avoiding the positive terminal 4a252 extending too long from the frame 4a24 and interfering with the structure in the housing 1. In other examples, the circumferential wall of the frame 4a24 may not be provided with the second opening 4a242, but the conductive member 4d is directly electrically connected to the positive terminal 4a252.
[0182] See also Figure 16 , Figure 16 Schematic diagram of the structure of the speaker module 4 of some other embodiments of the present application. A portion of the conductive member 4d is located on the side to which the outer surface of the connecting portion 4c2 faces. In order to prevent the conductive member 4d from protruding from the outer surface of the connecting portion 4c2 as a whole and interfering with other structures in the housing 1, a wiring groove 4c22 may be formed on the outer surface of the connecting portion 4c2, and a portion of the conductive member 4d is located in the wiring groove 4c22. Of course, it is understandable that the wiring groove 4c22 may not be provided on the outer surface of the connecting portion 4c2.
[0183] Here, the outer surface of the connection portion 4c2 refers to a surface of the connection portion 4c2 on one side facing away from the central axis of the first speaker unit 4a.
[0184] Optionally, part of the conductive member 4d is located on the side toward which the outer circumference of the basin frame 4a24 faces, and in order to prevent the conductive member 4d from protruding as a whole from the outer circumference of the basin frame 4a24 and interfering with other structures in the housing 1, an avoidance groove may be formed on the outer circumference of the basin frame 4a24, and part of the conductive member 4d is located in the avoidance groove. Of course, it is understandable that the avoidance groove may not be provided on the outer circumference of the basin frame 4a24.
[0185] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 17 , Figure 17 for Figure 8A cross-sectional schematic view of the shown speaker module 4. The negative pole of the second speaker unit 4b is located at one end of the second speaker unit 4b adjacent to the support plate 4c1, and the negative pole of the second speaker unit 4b is connected to the support plate 4c1 through a conductive adhesive 4e. Such an arrangement facilitates the electrical connection between the negative pole of the second speaker unit 4b and the support plate 4c1, and there is no need to additionally provide structures such as signal lines for electrical connection between the two. The positive pole of the second speaker unit 4b is located at one end of the second speaker unit 4b away from the support plate 4c1, and the positive pole of the second speaker unit 4b is connected to the conductive member 4d through a conductive adhesive or by welding. Such an arrangement facilitates the separation of the positive pole and the negative pole of the second speaker unit 4b, and can at least to a certain extent avoid the problem of short circuit.
[0186] In some embodiments of the present application, please continue to refer to Figure 17 , the second speaker unit 4b is a piezoelectric ceramic speaker unit, and the piezoelectric ceramic speaker unit and the support plate 4c1 are stacked. The connection manner between the piezoelectric ceramic speaker unit and the support plate 4c1 includes but is not limited to gluing or welding. In the embodiments of the present application, the piezoelectric ceramic speaker unit has a thin thickness, a small volume, and good high-frequency sound effects.
[0187] Specifically, the piezoelectric ceramic speaker unit includes a piezoelectric ceramic sheet 4bb. The piezoelectric ceramic sheet 4bb includes a piezoelectric body 4b43, a first electrode layer 4b41, and a second electrode layer 4b42.
[0188] It can be understood that Figure 17 and the following related drawings only schematically show some components included in the second speaker unit 4b, and the actual shapes, actual sizes, actual positions, and actual structures of these components are not limited by Figure 17 and the following respective drawings.
[0189] The first electrode layer 4b41 forms the negative electrode of the piezoelectric ceramic speaker unit, and the second electrode layer 4b42 forms the positive electrode of the piezoelectric ceramic speaker unit. The first electrode layer 4b41 and the second electrode layer 4b42 sandwich the piezoelectric body 4b43. The piezoelectric body 4b43 can be made of ceramic material. For example, the material of the piezoelectric body 4b43 includes but is not limited to lead zirconate, lead zirconate titanate, lanthanum lead zirconate titanate, barium titanate, tungsten bronze structure compounds, solid solutions of barium titanate and bismuth ferrite, etc. The first electrode layer 4b41 and the second electrode layer 4b42 can be formed on the piezoelectric body 4b43 by evaporation plating, electroplating, sputtering, etc. The materials of the first electrode layer 4b41 and the second electrode layer 4b42 can be metals. Specifically, for example, the material of the first electrode layer 4b41 includes but is not limited to gold, platinum, silver, copper, palladium, chromium, molybdenum, iron, tin, aluminum, and nickel, etc. The material of the second electrode layer 4b42 includes but is not limited to gold, platinum, silver, copper, palladium, chromium, molybdenum, iron, tin, aluminum, and nickel, etc. The materials of the first electrode layer 4b41 and the second electrode layer 4b42 can be the same or different. When an alternating current is applied to the piezoelectric ceramic speaker unit, the piezoelectric body 4b43 will generate expansion and contraction deformation, thereby driving the air to vibrate and produce sound. In this embodiment, the first electrode layer 4b41 of the piezoelectric ceramic speaker unit is provided on one surface of the piezoelectric body 4b43 facing the support plate 4c1, and the first electrode layer 4b41 and the support plate 4c1 can be electrically connected through the conductive adhesive 4e. The second electrode layer 4b42 is provided on the surface of the piezoelectric body 4b43 facing away from the support plate 4c1, and the second electrode layer 4b42 can be welded to the conductive member 4d.
[0190] In some other embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 18 , Figure 18 which is a schematic structural diagram of the speaker module 4 in some other embodiments of the present application. The second speaker unit 4b is a moving iron speaker unit. The second speaker unit 4b is vertically supported on one surface of the support plate 4c1 facing the sound outlet hole 110, and the second speaker unit 4b is located between the inner peripheral surface of the first sound transmission channel 4c11 and the outer peripheral surface of the support plate 4c1.
[0191] Please refer to Figure 19 , Figure 19 which is Figure 18 a schematic cross-sectional structure diagram of the second speaker unit 4b shown in
[0192] It can be understood that Figure 19 and the related drawings below only schematically show some components included in the second speaker unit 4b, and the actual shapes, actual sizes, actual positions, and actual structures of these components are not affected byFigure 19 and are defined by the following drawings and the following text.
[0193] The protective housing 4b1 serves as a carrier for the various components within the second speaker unit 4b, and is used to protect the second diaphragm group 4b21, the reed 4b22, the transmission rod 4b23, the second magnetic circuit system 4b24, the second voice coil 4b25, etc. The connection relationship between the protective housing 4b1 and the support plate 4c1 includes but is not limited to snap connection, gluing, welding, or screw connection.
[0194] On one side of the protective housing 4b1 adjacent to the sound outlet hole 110, a sound outlet channel 4b11 is formed. The sound of the second speaker unit 4b can be emitted through this sound outlet channel 4b11, so that both the second speaker unit 4b and the first speaker unit 4a can emit sound towards the sound outlet hole 110.
[0195] The material of the protective housing 4b1 includes but is not limited to metal, plastic, and the combination of metal and plastic. In some embodiments, the material of the protective housing 4b1 is plastic. Plastic has a low cost and is easy to mold, which is beneficial to reducing the processing cost of the second speaker unit 4b. In some other examples, in order to improve the structural strength of the protective housing 4b1, the material of the protective housing 4b1 can be metal.
[0196] The protective housing 4b1 extends along the sound outlet direction of the sound outlet hole 110. That is to say, the length direction of the protective housing 4b1 is the same as the sound outlet direction of the sound outlet hole 110. Specifically, please refer to Figure 19 , the shape of the protective housing 4b1 can be rectangular parallelepiped.
[0197] The protective housing 4b1 can be a single structural entity, or can be formed by assembling multiple parts. In some embodiments, please continue to refer to Figure 19 . The protective housing 4b1 includes a first housing part 4b1a and a second housing part 4b1b. The first housing part 4b1a and the second housing part 4b1b are arranged in the radial direction of the first speaker unit 4a and are spliced and connected. This can facilitate the separate processing of the first housing part 4b1a and the second housing part 4b1b, which is beneficial to simplifying the mold structure of the first housing part 4b1a and the second housing part 4b1b, thereby reducing the forming difficulty of the first housing part 4b1a and the second housing part 4b1b, and further reducing the processing and manufacturing difficulty of the protective housing 4b1.
[0198] Please continue to refer to Figure 19 . The second diaphragm group 4b21 is arranged inside the protective housing 4b1. The second diaphragm group 4b21 is parallel to the axis of the first speaker unit 4a. In this way, the second diaphragm group 4b21 can be perpendicularly arranged to the first diaphragm group 4a21. Thus, it can at least to a certain extent avoid the interference of the sound emitted by the first speaker unit 4a on the vibration of the second diaphragm group 4b21.
[0199] The second speaker unit 4b divides the space inside the protective housing 4b1 into a front cavity k1 and a rear cavity k2 by means of the second diaphragm assembly 4b21. In this way, the front cavity k1 and the rear cavity k2 are arranged radially with respect to the first speaker unit 4a.
[0200] Please refer to Figure 20 , Figure 20 as Figure 19 a schematic structural view of the second diaphragm assembly 4b21 of the second speaker unit 4b shown in. The second diaphragm assembly 4b21 includes a second connecting portion 4b21a, a second surround 4b21b, and a second dome 4b21c.
[0201] The second connecting portion 4b21a is in the shape of an annular sheet, and the second connecting portion 4b21a is a rounded rectangular ring.
[0202] Please refer to Figure 20 , and in combination with Figure 19 , a stepped portion 4b12 is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the protective housing 4b1, and the second connecting portion 4b21a is stacked on the stepped portion 4b12. The connection relationship between the second connecting portion 4b21a and the stepped portion 4b12 includes but is not limited to gluing. Of course, in some other examples, the protective housing 4b1 may not be provided with the stepped portion 4b12, but the second connecting portion 4b21a may be provided as an annular cylinder, and the second connecting portion 4b21a may be connected to the inner peripheral surface of the protective housing 4b1.
[0203] The second surround 4b21b is provided on the outer periphery of the second dome 4b21c and is surrounded by the second connecting portion 4b21a. The second surround 4b21b is in the shape of a rounded rectangular ring. The second surround 4b21b is recessed toward the side close to the rear cavity K2 to form an arc-shaped or approximately arc-shaped cross-section. Such a setting can save the space of the front cavity K1. Of course, the present application is not limited thereto.

[0204] In some examples, the second diaphragm assembly 4b21 may be an integrally formed part. That is to say, the second connecting portion 4b21a, the second surround 4b21b, and the second dome 4b21c are integrally formed and connected as a whole. Such a setting not only facilitates the simplification of the processing technology and reduces the production cost, but also can improve the connection strength between the second connecting portion 4b21a and the second surround 4b21b, and between the second surround 4b21b and the second dome 4b21c. Of course, the present application is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the second connecting portion 4b21a, the second surround 4b21b, and the second dome 4b21c may also be separately processed and manufactured, and then connected by means of gluing or the like.
[0205] Please continue to refer to Figure 19, the reed 4b22 is disposed in the rear cavity K2 of the second speaker unit 4b, and is used to provide a driving force for the vibration of the second diaphragm group 4b21. The material of the reed 4b22 includes, but is not limited to, metal.
[0206] Please refer to Figure 21 , Figure 21 is Figure 19 a schematic structural view of the reed 4b22 of the second speaker unit 4b shown in. The reed 4b22 includes a first sheet body 4b221, a second sheet body 4b222 and a connecting sheet body 4b223.
[0207] The first sheet body 4b221 is in the shape of a rectangular sheet. The first sheet body 4b221 is arranged parallel to the second diaphragm group 4b21. The second sheet body 4b222 is in the shape of a rectangular sheet. The second sheet body 4b222 is arranged parallel to the second diaphragm group 4b21, and the second sheet body 4b222 is located on the side of the first sheet body 4b221 away from the second diaphragm group 4b21. The second sheet body 4b222 may have the same size as the first sheet body 4b221.
[0208] One end of the second sheet body 4b222 is provided with a support body 4b224 that extends beyond the edge of the first sheet body 4b221, and the support body 4b224 is in the shape of a triangle. In some examples, the support body 4b224 and the second sheet body 4b222 may be an integrally formed part, that is, the support body 4b224 and the second sheet body 4b222 are connected into a structural whole. In other examples, the support body 4b224 and the second sheet body 4b222 may be connected by means such as gluing, clamping, welding or screwing.
[0209] The shape of the connecting sheet body 4b223 includes, but is not limited to, "C" shape and "V" shape. The connecting sheet body 4b223 is connected between one end of the second sheet body 4b222 away from the support body 4b224 and one end of the first sheet body 4b221 away from the support body 4b224.
[0210] The reed 4b22 may be an integrally formed part. That is to say, the first sheet body 4b221, the second sheet body 4b222 and the connecting sheet body 4b223 are connected into a whole. Such a setting not only facilitates the simplification of the processing technology and reduces the production cost, but also can improve the connection strength between the first sheet body 4b221 and the connecting sheet body 4b223 and between the second sheet body 4b222 and the connecting sheet body 4b223. Of course, the present application is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the first sheet body 4b221, the second sheet body 4b222 and the connecting sheet body 4b223 may also be independently processed and manufactured, and then connected by means such as gluing or welding.
[0211] Please continue to refer to Figure 19, the transmission rod 4b23 is rod-shaped and is connected between the support 4b224 and the second dome 4b21c. The transmission rod 4b23 is perpendicularly arranged to the second sheet 4b222. Through the connection of the transmission rod 4b23, the vibration of the reed 4b22 can be transmitted to the second diaphragm group 4b21, thereby causing the second speaker unit 4b to emit sound.
[0212] The material of the transmission rod 4b23 includes but is not limited to metal or hard plastic. The connection methods between the transmission rod 4b23 and the second sheet 4b222 include but are not limited to gluing, welding, snap connection or threaded connection. The connection methods between the transmission rod 4b23 and the second diaphragm group 4b21 include but are not limited to gluing, welding, snap connection or threaded connection.
[0213] Please refer to Figure 22 , and in combination with Figure 19 , where Figure 22 is Figure 19 a schematic structural diagram of the second magnetic circuit system 4b24 of the second speaker unit 4b shown in
[0214] The magnetic conduction part 4b241 is in a rectangular ring shape. The axial direction of the magnetic conduction part 4b241 is the same as the axial direction of the speaker frame 4a24. The first sheet 4b221 is supported on one side surface of the magnetic conduction part 4b241 adjacent to the second diaphragm group 4b21. The connection methods between the first sheet 4b221 and the magnetic conduction part 4b241 include but are not limited to gluing or snap connection.
[0215] The two magnet parts 4b242 are arranged in the magnetic conduction part 4b241 and are oppositely arranged in the radial direction of the magnetic conduction part 4b241.
[0216] The shape of the magnet part 4b242 includes but is not limited to a cuboid shape, a cylinder shape or an irregular shape. The magnetization directions of the two magnet parts 4b242 are opposite. For example, one end of one magnet part 4b242 close to the central axis of the magnetic conduction part 4b241 is an N pole, and the end far from the central axis of the magnetic conduction part 4b241 is an S pole. One end of the other magnet part 4b242 close to the central axis of the magnetic conduction part 4b241 is an S pole, and the end far from the central axis of the magnetic conduction part 4b241 is an N pole.
[0217] Please continue to refer to Figure 19 , the second sheet 4b222 penetrates from one axial end of the magnetic conduction part 4b241 to the other axial end of the magnetic conduction part 4b241 so that the support 4b224 is located outside the magnetic conduction part 4b241, and the second sheet 4b222 is located between the two magnet parts 4b242.
[0218] The second voice coil 4b25 is located on the axial side of the magnetic conduction part 4b241 adjacent to the connecting piece body 4b223, and the second voice coil 4b25 surrounds the outer periphery of the second sheet body 4b222.
[0219] In some examples, the side wall of the protective case 4b1 adjacent to the support plate 4c1 can be configured as a conductive structure. The negative lead of the second voice coil 4b25 is electrically connected to the conductive structure, for example, by welding. The conductive structure can form the negative pole of the second speaker unit 4b, and the conductive structure can be welded to the support plate 4c1 or connected by conductive glue. Such an arrangement can achieve the electrical connection between the negative pole of the second speaker unit 4b and the negative terminal 4a251. Of course, the present application is not limited thereto. In some other examples, through holes can also be provided on the peripheral wall of the protective case 4b1, and the negative lead of the second voice coil 4b25 can pass through the through holes and be electrically connected to the bracket 4c.
[0220] In some examples, through holes for wire passing can be formed on the peripheral wall of the protective case 4b1 or on the side wall of the protective case 4b1 away from the support plate 4c1. The conductive member 4d can pass through the through holes and be electrically connected to the positive lead of the second voice coil 4b25, or the positive lead of the second voice coil 4b25 can pass through the through holes and be electrically connected to the conductive member 4d.
[0221] When the second voice coil 4b25 is energized, the second voice coil 4b25 can generate a magnetic field, causing the second sheet body 4b222 located in the second voice coil 4b25 to be magnetized and generate magnetic poles. In this way, a driving force for driving the second sheet body 4b222 to vibrate along the interval direction between the two magnet parts 4b242 can be formed between the second voice coil 4b25 and the magnet part 4b242. The vibration of the second sheet body 4b222 can drive the vibration of the transmission rod 4b23, and the vibration of the transmission rod 4b23 can further drive the vibration of the second diaphragm group 4b21. The vibration of the second diaphragm group 4b21 can push the air in the front cavity K1 to vibrate and generate sound, and the sound is emitted through the sound outlet channel 4b11.
[0222] Please refer to Figure 23 , Figure 23 which is a schematic structural diagram of the speaker module 4 according to some other embodiments of the present application. In this embodiment, the second speaker unit 4b can also be horizontally supported on the surface of the support plate 4c1 facing the sound outlet hole 110, that is to say, the length direction of the second speaker unit 4b is parallel to the support plate 4c1.
