Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of electroacoustic technology, and specifically relates to a sound-generating device and an electronic device. Background Technology
[0002] With the advent of folding machines, the requirements for the height of miniature speaker modules have become more stringent, and the structure has become more extreme, with the spacing in some structural areas even less than 100 μm. However, the particle size of zeolite sound-absorbing particles currently added to the rear acoustic cavity is all above 200 μm. Therefore, existing zeolite sound-absorbing particles cannot effectively fill these narrow areas, resulting in wasted space in these areas and failing to meet the requirements of the speaker's low resonant frequency F0.
[0003] Therefore, existing speakers still need improvement. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a sound-generating device and an electronic device. The sound-generating device uses a mixture of first molecular sieve powder particles and sound-absorbing particles with different particle sizes as sound-absorbing material to fill the rear acoustic cavity. The sound-absorbing particles are spherical particles formed by bonding together multiple second molecular sieve powder particles with an average particle size D50 of 0.1 μm to 30 μm. The average particle size D50 of the first molecular sieve powder particles is set between 10 μm and 50 μm, and the average particle size D50 of the sound-absorbing particles is set between 150 μm and 1000 μm. This allows the first molecular sieve powder particles to not only fill the narrow space of the rear acoustic cavity, making full use of this space, but also fill the gaps between the stacked sound-absorbing particles, increasing the total filling rate of the sound-absorbing material in the rear acoustic cavity to 99%. This effectively reduces the resonant frequency F0 of the sound-generating device, improves low-frequency sensitivity, and results in better low-frequency acoustic performance of the sound-generating device.
[0005] The first aspect of the present invention provides a sound-generating device, comprising a housing having an internal space, a sound-generating unit disposed inside the housing, and a breathable insulating member. The sound-generating unit cooperates with the housing to define a front sound cavity and a rear sound cavity within the internal space of the housing. The rear sound cavity is filled with a sound-absorbing material. The breathable insulating member is used to isolate the sound-absorbing material from the sound-generating unit. The sound-absorbing material comprises first molecular sieve powder particles and sound-absorbing particles. The sound-absorbing particles are spherical particles formed by bonding together multiple second molecular sieve powder particles with an average particle size D50 of 0.1 μm to 30 μm. The average particle size D50 of the sound-absorbing particles is 150 μm to 1000 μm, and the average particle size D50 of the first molecular sieve powder particles is 10 μm to 50 μm. The pore size of the breathable insulating member is smaller than the minimum particle size of the first molecular sieve powder particles.
[0006] In some embodiments, the filling volume of the first molecular sieve powder accounts for 3% to 50% of the total volume of the sound-absorbing material, and the filling volume of the sound-absorbing particles accounts for 50% to 97% of the total volume of the sound-absorbing material.
[0007] In some embodiments, the ratio of the average particle size D50 of the sound-absorbing particles to the average particle size D50 of the first molecular sieve powder is greater than 4.
[0008] In some embodiments, the sound-absorbing particles have a through-pore structure with a pore size of 500 nm to 9000 nm.
[0009] In some embodiments, the first molecular sieve particles and the second molecular sieve particles each independently contain a microporous structure with a pore size of 0.4 nm to 1 nm.
[0010] In some embodiments, the first molecular sieve particles and the second molecular sieve particles have the same external dimensions.
[0011] In some embodiments, the crystal structure of the first molecular sieve powder and the crystal structure of the second molecular sieve powder each independently include one of the following crystal structures: MFI, MTW, FER, MOR, MEL, CHA, and LTL.
[0012] In some embodiments, the shape of the first molecular sieve powder and the shape of the second molecular sieve powder each independently include one of the following: spherical, quasi-spherical, ellipsoidal, rod-shaped, cross-shaped, blocky, polygonal, and irregular shapes.
[0013] In some embodiments, the air permeability of the breathable insulating element is 500 L / m². 2 .s@20mmH2O~6000 L / m 2 .s@20mmH2O.
[0014] In some embodiments, the material of the breathable insulating component includes at least one selected from polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene naphthalate, polypropylene, polyethylene, stainless steel, aluminum, copper, and natural fibers.
[0015] In some embodiments, the breathable insulating element is a woven mesh fabric.
[0016] In some embodiments, the sound-generating unit includes a housing having an internal cavity, the housing having an air outlet communicating with the internal cavity, and a breathable insulating member connecting the housing and blocking the air outlet.
[0017] In some embodiments, the housing includes a first housing and a second housing connected to each other, the first housing and the second housing together forming an internal space of the housing, the first housing having a first mounting groove on the side near the second housing, and the second housing having a second mounting groove on the side near the first housing, the breathable isolation member including a mounting frame and a breathable component disposed in the mounting frame, the opposite sides of the mounting frame being respectively mounted in the first mounting groove and the second mounting groove.
[0018] A second aspect of the present invention also provides an electronic device, the electronic device comprising the sound-generating device described in the first aspect.
[0019] The sound-generating device provided by this invention uses a mixture of first molecular sieve powder particles and sound-absorbing particles with different particle sizes as sound-absorbing material to fill the rear acoustic cavity. The sound-absorbing particles are spherical particles formed by bonding multiple second molecular sieve powder particles with an average particle size D50 of 0.1 μm to 30 μm. The average particle size D50 of the first molecular sieve powder particles is set between 10 μm and 50 μm, and the average particle size D50 of the sound-absorbing particles is set between 150 μm and 1000 μm. This allows the first molecular sieve powder particles to not only fill the narrow space of the rear acoustic cavity and make full use of it, but also fill the gaps between the stacked sound-absorbing particles. This increases the total filling rate of the sound-absorbing material in the rear acoustic cavity to 99%, effectively reducing the resonant frequency F0 of the sound-generating device, improving low-frequency sensitivity, and making the low-frequency acoustic effect of the sound-generating device better.

For example, A and / or B can represent: A existing alone, A and B existing simultaneously, and B existing alone.

[0029] In the description of the embodiments of the present invention, the term "multiple" refers to two or more (including two), similarly, "multiple groups" refers to two or more (including two groups), and "multiple pieces" refers to two or more (including two pieces).
[0030] The first aspect of the present invention provides a sound-generating device, combined with Figures 1 to 3 The sound-generating device 100 includes a housing 10 with an internal space, a sound-generating unit 20 disposed inside the housing 10, and a breathable isolation component 30. The sound-generating unit 20 cooperates with the housing 10 to define a front sound cavity and a rear sound cavity within the internal space of the housing 10. The rear sound cavity is filled with a sound-absorbing material 40. The breathable isolation component 30 is used to isolate the sound-absorbing material 10 and the sound-generating unit 20. The sound-absorbing material 40 includes first molecular sieve powder 41 and sound-absorbing particles 42. The sound-absorbing particles 42 are spherical particles formed by bonding together multiple second molecular sieve powder particles with an average particle size D50 of 0.1 μm to 30 μm. The average particle size D50 of the sound-absorbing particles 42 is 150 μm to 1000 μm, and the average particle size D50 of the first molecular sieve powder 41 is 10 μm to 50 μm. The pore size of the breathable isolation component 30 is smaller than the minimum particle size of the first molecular sieve powder 41.
[0031] In this embodiment of the invention, the sound-absorbing material 40 is mainly obtained by mixing first molecular sieve powder 41 with different particle size ranges and sound-absorbing particles 42. Because the first molecular sieve powder 41 has a small particle size range, the first molecular sieve powder 41 can fill the narrow space of the rear acoustic cavity with a spacing of 10 μm to 100 μm, making full use of this narrow space. At the same time, the first molecular sieve powder 41 can also fill the gaps between the stacked sound-absorbing particles 42, so that the total filling rate or total filling rate of the sound-absorbing material 40 in the rear acoustic cavity is increased to 99%, thereby more effectively reducing the resonant frequency F0 of the sound-generating device, improving the low-frequency sensitivity, and making the low-frequency acoustic effect of the sound-generating device better.
[0032] The average particle size D50 of the first molecular sieve powder 41 provided by this invention is 10 μm to 50 μm. It is understood that when the average particle size D50 of the first molecular sieve powder 41 is less than 10 μm, a breathable insulating element 30 with a pore size smaller than 10 μm is required, resulting in insufficient air permeability of the insulating element 30 and failing to meet the air permeability requirements. Conversely, when the average particle size D50 of the first molecular sieve powder 41 is greater than 50 μm, it is impossible to effectively fill or pack the narrow space, resulting in wasted space and failing to meet the requirements of the low resonant frequency F0 of the loudspeaker. The average particle size D50 of the first molecular sieve powder 41 provided by this invention can be any value within the range of any two values mentioned above, such as 10 μm to 30 μm, or 30 μm to 50 μm, and so on. For example, the average particle size D50 of the first molecular sieve powder 41 can be one of 10 μm, 12 μm, 15 μm, 18 μm, 20 μm, 22 μm, 25 μm, 28 μm, 30 μm, 32 μm, 35 μm, 38 μm, 40 μm, 42 μm, 45 μm, 48 μm, 50 μm or any value that satisfies the above range.
[0033] The sound-absorbing particles 42 provided by this invention have an average particle size D50 of 150 μm to 1000 μm. It is understood that when the average particle size D50 of the sound-absorbing particles 42 is less than 150 μm, the particle size is small and easily worn by the irregularly shaped structures in the rear acoustic cavity, leading to performance failure. Conversely, when the average particle size D50 of the sound-absorbing particles 42 is greater than 1000 μm, the efficiency of gas exchange between the particles and the surrounding environment decreases, preventing the internal second molecular sieve particles from effectively performing their function, resulting in material loss and wasting valuable space in the rear acoustic cavity. The average particle size D50 of the sound-absorbing particles 42 provided by this invention can be any value within the range of any two values mentioned above, such as 150 μm to 500 μm, or 500 μm to 1000 μm, and so on. For example, the average particle size D50 of the sound-absorbing particles 42 can be one of 150 μm, 180 μm, 200 μm, 220 μm, 250 μm, 280 μm, 300 μm, 320 μm, 350 μm, 380 μm, 400 μm, 450 μm, 500 μm, 550 μm, 600 μm, 650 μm, 700 μm, 750 μm, 800 μm, 850 μm, 900 μm, 950 μm, 1000 μm or any value that satisfies the above range.
[0034] In some embodiments, the filling volume of the first molecular sieve powder 41 accounts for 3% to 50% of the total volume of the sound-absorbing material 40, and the filling volume of the sound-absorbing particles 42 accounts for 50% to 97% of the total volume of the sound-absorbing material 40. It is understood that when the filling volume of the first molecular sieve powder 41 in the rear acoustic cavity is too large, the sound-absorbing material 40 in the rear acoustic cavity will form a more dense accumulation, hindering the overall movement of the sound-absorbing material 40, increasing the resistance to airflow, and thus affecting the sound absorption effect of the sound-absorbing material 40. Conversely, when the filling volume of the first molecular sieve powder 41 in the sound-absorbing material 40 is too small, the utilization of the rear acoustic cavity volume cannot be maximized, reducing the filling rate of the rear acoustic cavity sound-absorbing material 40. When the first molecular sieve powder 41 and the sound-absorbing particles 42 are designed according to the above volume ratio, the total filling rate of the rear acoustic cavity sound-absorbing material 40 is increased to 99%, achieving efficient utilization of the rear acoustic cavity filling space, significantly improving the filling utilization rate, and more effectively reducing the speaker resonant frequency F0.
[0035] In some embodiments, the combination ratio of the first molecular sieve powder 41 and the sound-absorbing particles 42 can be adjusted according to the rear acoustic cavity structure of different sound-generating devices to achieve the maximum utilization rate of the rear acoustic cavity filling. For example, the filling volume of the first molecular sieve powder 41 can be one of the following: 3%, 5%, 8%, 10%, 12%, 15%, 18%, 20%, 22%, 25%, 28%, 30%, 32%, 35%, 38%, 40%, 42%, 45%, 48%, 50% of the total volume of the sound-absorbing material 40, or any value satisfying the above range. The filling volume of the sound-absorbing particles 42 can be one of the following: 50%, 52%, 55%, 58%, 60%, 62%, 65%, 68%, 70%, 72%, 75%, 78%, 80%, 82%, 85%, 88%, 90%, 92%, 95%, 97% of the total volume of the sound-absorbing material 40, or any value satisfying the above range.
[0036] In some embodiments, the ratio of the average particle size D50 of the sound-absorbing particles 42 to the average particle size D50 of the first molecular sieve powder 41 is greater than 4. It is understood that when the ratio of the average particle size D50 of the sound-absorbing particles 42 to the average particle size D50 of the first molecular sieve powder 41 is less than 4, the first molecular sieve powder 41 cannot fill the gaps formed between the multiple sound-absorbing particles 42, thus affecting the filling amount of the sound-absorbing material 40 in the rear acoustic cavity; when the ratio of their average particle sizes D50 is greater than 4, the first molecular sieve powder 41 can fully and effectively fill the gaps formed by the sound-absorbing particles 42, achieving efficient utilization of the gap space. For example, the ratio of the average particle size D50 of the sound-absorbing particles 42 to the average particle size D50 of the first analytical sieve powder 41 can be 4.5, 5, etc., and can be set according to actual conditions.
[0037] In some embodiments, the first molecular sieve particles 41 comprise a microporous structure with a pore size of 0.4 nm to 1 nm. It is understood that the first molecular sieve particles 41 having a microporous structure with a pore size between 0.4 nm and 1 nm can effectively adsorb and desorb air molecules in the air, effectively reducing the resonant frequency F0 of the sound-generating device. Exemplarily, the pore size of the microporous structure in the first molecular sieve particles 41 can be one of 0.4 nm, 0.5 nm, 0.55 nm, 0.6 nm, 0.7 nm, 0.8 nm, 0.9 nm, and 1 nm, or any value satisfying the above range.
[0038] In some embodiments, the first molecular sieve particles 41 have a pore structure with a pore size of 0.4 nm to 50 nm. It is understood that the first molecular sieve particles 41 may have pore structures with other pore sizes besides microporous structures with pore sizes between 0.4 nm and 1 nm, all of which have pore sizes within 50 nm. Exemplarily, the pore size of the pore structure in the first molecular sieve particles 41 can be one of 1 nm, 2 nm, 3 nm, 4 nm, 5 nm, 6 nm, 7 nm, 8 nm, 9 nm, 10 nm, 12 nm, 15 nm, 18 nm, 20 nm, 22 nm, 25 nm, 28 nm, 30 nm, 32 nm, 35 nm, 38 nm, 40 nm, 42 nm, 45 nm, 48 nm, or 50 nm, or any value satisfying the above range.
[0039] In some embodiments, the shape of the first molecular sieve particles 41 may be, but is not limited to, spherical, quasi-spherical, ellipsoidal, rod-shaped, cross-shaped, block-shaped, polygonal, or irregular. The appropriate shape of the first molecular sieve particles 41 may be selected according to the actual situation.
[0040] In some embodiments, the shape of the first molecular sieve powder 41 is selected from spherical or near-spherical. The first molecular sieve powder 41 of this shape can achieve maximum space packing when filled with near-spherical sound-absorbing particles 42, and the powder of this shape has good flowability, which is conducive to filling or filling.
[0041] In some embodiments, the crystal structure of the first molecular sieve powder 41 includes one of the following crystal structures: MFI, MTW, FER, MOR, MEL, CHA, and LTL, which can be selected according to actual needs.
[0042] In some embodiments, the sound-absorbing particles 42 contain a through-pore structure with a pore size of 500 nm to 9000 nm. It can be understood that the sound-absorbing particles 42 contain interconnected macroporous structures, allowing air to enter the interior of the sound-absorbing particles 42 through these macroporous structures. This enables the sound-absorbing powder particles distributed near the center of the particles to fully exert their adsorption and desorption effects on air molecules. Alternatively, it can be understood as effectively utilizing the adsorption and desorption capabilities of the sound-absorbing powder particles deep within the particles near the center, achieving efficient dissipation of sound energy and ultimately reducing the resonant frequency F0 of the sound-generating device. It should be noted that when the pore size of the through-pore structure is less than 500 nm, the speed at which air passes through the pores decreases, making it difficult for air to penetrate the interior of the particles and contact the deep sound-absorbing powder particles, thus hindering the effectiveness of the adsorption-desorption sound energy loss mechanism. Conversely, when the pore size of the through-pore structure is greater than 9000 nm, the overall structure of the particles is relatively loose, making them susceptible to breakage under drop conditions and surface wear, leading to structural damage and performance failure. For example, the pore size of the through-hole structure can be 500 nm, 600 nm, 700 nm, 780 nm, 800 nm, 900 nm, 1000 nm, 1200 nm, 1500 nm, 1800 nm, 2000 nm, 2200 nm, 2500 nm, 2800 nm, 3000 nm, 3200 nm, 3500 nm, 3800 nm, 4000 nm, 4200 nm, 4500 nm, 4800 nm, 5000 nm, 5200 nm, 5500 nm, 5800 nm, 6000 nm, 6200 nm, 6500 nm, 6800 nm, 7000 nm, 7200 nm, 7500 nm, 7800 nm, 8000 nm, 8200 nm, 8500 nm, 8800 nm, 9000 nm, etc. One of nm or any value that satisfies the above range.
[0043] In some embodiments, the sound-absorbing particles 42 are spherical particles formed by bonding an adhesive with multiple second molecular sieve powder particles with an average particle size D50 of 0.1 μm to 30 μm. This results in the formation of spherical particles that retain the microporous structure of the second molecular sieve powder particles, while mesopores and macropores are formed between the second molecular sieve powder particles, thus creating a multi-level interconnected channel of "micropores + mesopores + macropores". This structure can significantly increase the contact area between air and the second molecular sieve powder particles, prolong the residence time of air molecules in the channels, enhance the sound energy loss efficiency of the adsorption-desorption process, and achieve the effect of reducing the resonant frequency F0 of the sound-generating device. For example, the average particle size D50 of the second molecular sieve powder can be one of 0.1 μm, 0.2 μm, 0.5 μm, 0.6 μm, 0.8 μm, 1 μm, 1.5 μm, 2 μm, 3 μm, 4 μm, 5 μm, 6 μm, 7 μm, 8 μm, 9 μm, 10 μm, 12 μm, 15 μm, 18 μm, 20 μm, 22 μm, 25 μm, 28 μm, and 30 μm, or any value that satisfies the above range.
[0044] In some embodiments, the second molecular sieve particles comprise a microporous structure with a pore size of 0.4 nm to 1 nm. It is understood that the second molecular sieve particles having a microporous structure with a pore size between 0.4 nm and 1 nm can effectively adsorb and desorb air molecules in the air, effectively reducing the resonant frequency F0 of the sound-generating device. Exemplarily, the pore size of the microporous structure in the second molecular sieve particles can be one of 0.4 nm, 0.5 nm, 0.6 nm, 0.7 nm, 0.8 nm, 0.9 nm, and 1 nm, or any value satisfying the above range.
[0045] In some embodiments, the first molecular sieve particles 41 and the second molecular sieve particles have the same external dimensions.
[0046] In some embodiments, the shape of the second molecular sieve particles may be, but is not limited to, spherical, near-spherical, ellipsoidal, rod-shaped, cross-shaped, blocky, polygonal, or irregular.
[0047] In some embodiments, the shape of the second molecular sieve particles is selected from spherical or near-spherical, and such shape of second molecular sieve particles helps to bind together to form near-spherical sound-absorbing particles 42.
[0048] In some embodiments, the crystal structure of the second molecular sieve powder includes one of the following crystal structures: MFI, MTW, FER, MOR, MEL, CHA, and LTL.
[0049] In some embodiments, the adhesive includes at least one of organic adhesives and inorganic adhesives.
[0050] Specifically, organic adhesives include one or more of polyacrylates, polyurethanes, and silicones. For example, it could be a polyacrylic acid adhesive.
[0051] Inorganic adhesives include at least one of silicates, silica sols, aluminosilicates, phosphates, sulfates, and borates.
[0052] In some embodiments, the breathable insulating member 30 is used to isolate the sound-absorbing material 40 from the magnetic circuit system of the sound-generating unit 20. This can be understood as isolating the sound-absorbing material 40 from the outside of the magnetic circuit system to prevent the sound-absorbing material 40 from entering the magnetic circuit system.
[0053] In some embodiments, the air permeability of the breathable insulating element 30 is 500 L / m. 2 .s@20mmH2O~6000 L / m 2 .s@20mmH2O. It should be noted that under a pressure of 20 mmH2O, when the air permeability of the breathable insulating element 30 is less than 500 L / m... 2 When the air permeability is .s@20mmH2O, the acoustic impedance of the breathable insulating element 30 is relatively large, affecting the airflow efficiency and causing the resonant frequency F0 of the sound-generating device to increase, thus negatively impacting its acoustic performance. Conversely, if the air permeability of the breathable insulating element 30 is too high, the first molecular sieve particles 41 will leak out and contaminate the sound-generating monomer 20. In this embodiment of the invention, when the air permeability of the breathable insulating element 30 is 500 L / m 2 .S@20mmH2O~6000 L / m 2 When S@20 mmH2O, it can not only effectively encapsulate the sound-absorbing material 40, but also ensure its air permeability. The air permeability of the air-permeable insulating component 30 provided by this invention can be any value within the range formed by any two values in the above range, for example, it can be 500 L / m 2 .S@20 mmH2O~3000 L / m 2 .S@20 mmH2O, or 3000 L / m 2 .S@20mmH2O~6000 L / m 2 .S@20 mmH2O, and so on. Exemplarily, in this embodiment of the invention, the air permeability of the breathable insulating element 30 can also be 500 L / m². 2 .S@20 mmH2O, 1000 L / m 2 .S@20 mmH2O, 2000 L / m 2 .S@20 mmH2O, 3000 L / m 2 .S@20 mmH2O, 4000 L / m 2.S@20 mmH2O, 5000 L / m 2 .S@20 mmH2O, 6000 L / m 2 One of the following: .S@20 mmH2O or any value that satisfies the above range.
[0054] In some embodiments, the material of the breathable insulating component 30 includes one of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), stainless steel, aluminum, copper, and natural fibers.
[0055] In some embodiments, the breathable insulating element 30 may be a woven mesh.
[0056] See Figure 1 As shown, the housing 10 includes a first housing 11 and a second housing 12 connected to each other. The first housing 11 and the second housing 12 together form the internal space of the housing 10. The first housing 11 is provided with a first mounting groove on the side near the second housing 12, and the second housing 12 is provided with a second mounting groove on the side near the first housing 11. The breathable isolation component 30 includes a mounting frame and a breathable component disposed in the mounting frame. The opposite sides of the mounting frame are respectively installed in the first mounting groove and the second mounting groove.
[0057] In some embodiments, the material of the breathable component may be, but is not limited to, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), stainless steel, aluminum, copper, and natural fibers.
[0058] In some embodiments, the breathable insulating member 30 can be directly connected to the housing 10 to house the sound-generating unit 20 within the space formed by the breathable insulating member 30, the first housing 11, and the second housing 12. The connection method between the breathable insulating member 30 and the housing 10 can be, but is not limited to, bonding, hot-melt sealing, or injection molding.
[0059] See Figure 2 As shown, the sound-generating unit 20 includes a shell with an internal cavity. The shell is provided with an air outlet that communicates with the internal cavity. The breathable isolation component 30 is connected to the shell and blocks the air outlet. In this way, the magnetic circuit system inside the sound-generating unit 20 is isolated from the overall space of the rear acoustic cavity, and the sound-absorbing material 40 can be filled in the entire rear acoustic cavity space.
[0060] In some embodiments, the breathable isolation member 30 is disposed at the sound leakage hole of the sound-generating unit 20, thereby isolating and protecting the magnetic circuit system inside the sound-generating unit 20.

Moreover, the comparative examples below are selected to compare with the technical solutions of the present invention to demonstrate the advancement of the present invention, and do not necessarily represent prior art in this technical field.
[0064] It should be noted that the experimental materials used in each embodiment and comparative example are described below.
[0065] 1) First molecular sieve powder 41: crystal structure MFI type, average particle size D50 is 25 μm, silicon-aluminum ratio is 180, shape is spherical, and the first molecular sieve powder 41 has a microporous structure with a pore size of 0.55 nm.
[0066] 2) Sound-absorbing particles 42: These are spherical particles formed by bonding multiple second molecular sieve powder particles together with polyacrylic acid adhesive. The crystal structure of the second molecular sieve powder particles is MFI type, the silicon-to-aluminum ratio is 600, the average particle size D50 of the second molecular sieve powder particles is 1.5 μm, the average particle size D50 of the sound-absorbing particles 42 is 350 μm, and the sound-absorbing particles 42 contain a through-pore structure with a pore size of 780 nm.
[0067] 3) Breathable insulating component 30: Made of PET woven mesh with a pore size of 18 μm and an air permeability of 1500 L / m 2 .s@20mmH2O.
[0068] 4) Loudspeaker (sound-generating device 100): Model ZZY19 (see structure) Figure 2 As shown), material 3) PET woven mesh is used to separate the sound-absorbing material 40 in the rear acoustic cavity, and the total filling volume of the rear acoustic cavity is 0.36 mL.
[0069] Example 1 Measure 0.32 mL of material 2) sound-absorbing particles 42 using a measuring cup. The volume of sound-absorbing particles 42 accounts for 91.4% of the total volume of sound-absorbing material 40. Then measure 0.03 mL of material 1) first molecular sieve powder 41. The volume of first molecular sieve powder 41 accounts for 8.6% of the total volume of sound-absorbing material 40. Mix the first molecular sieve powder 41 and sound-absorbing particles 42 and fill them into the rear acoustic cavity of speaker ZZY19 to complete the product manufacturing.
[0070] Example 2 Measure 0.2 mL of material 2) sound-absorbing particles 42 using a measuring cup. The volume of sound-absorbing particles 42 accounts for 62.5% of the total volume of sound-absorbing material 40. Then measure 0.12 mL of material 1) first molecular sieve powder 41. The volume of first molecular sieve powder 41 accounts for 37.5% of the total volume of sound-absorbing material 40. Mix the first molecular sieve powder 41 and sound-absorbing particles 42 and fill them into the rear acoustic cavity of speaker ZZY19 to complete the product manufacturing.
[0071] Comparative Example 1 0.32 mL of material 2) sound-absorbing particles 42 were measured using a measuring cup and filled into the rear acoustic cavity of speaker ZZY19 to complete the product manufacturing.
[0072] It is worth mentioning that, according to the experimental test, when the rear acoustic cavity of the speaker ZZY19 was filled with sound-absorbing particles 42 (material 2) to the point of overflow, the total filling volume of the sound-absorbing particles 42 was calculated to be 0.32 mL. Although there was still 0.04 mL of space, the sound-absorbing particles 42 could not be filled any further, and the filling rate of the rear acoustic cavity was 88.9%.
[0073] Performance testing (a) Impedance (IMP) Test After the speakers in the above embodiments and comparative examples were manufactured, the impedance (IMP) of each speaker was tested using SoundCheck software and a speaker testing system to obtain the impedance curves and resonant frequency F0 of each speaker. (See [link to relevant documentation]). Figure 3 As shown.
[0074] Meanwhile, the filling parameters of the loudspeakers and the resonant frequency F0 of the loudspeakers in the embodiments and comparative examples are listed in Table 1 below.
[0075] Table 1
[0076] Analysis of the data in Table 1 shows that, compared to Comparative Example 1, the filling rate of the sound-absorbing material 40 in the rear acoustic cavity of Example 1 increased by 8.3%, reaching 97.2%, and the F0 value of the loudspeaker was 19 Hz lower than that of Comparative Example 1. Compared to Comparative Example 1 (purely filled with sound-absorbing particles 42), in Example 2, under the same rear acoustic cavity filling rate, selecting a suitable ratio of first molecular sieve powder 41 to sound-absorbing particles 42 resulted in less filling time, higher filling efficiency, and consistent performance.
[0077] The results above show that the combination of the first molecular sieve powder 41 and the sound-absorbing particles 42 can effectively fill the space of the rear acoustic cavity of the loudspeaker. For the loudspeaker module of this project, the filling rate can reach 97.2%, which can more effectively improve the resonant frequency F0 of the loudspeaker. At the same time, the appropriate combination ratio can reduce the filling time and improve the filling efficiency.
[0078] (ii) Reliability Testing Each speaker module in the above embodiments and comparative examples was connected to a high-power lifespan test, with a voltage of 2.83 V, white noise signal, and powered on for 96 hours. Afterwards, changes in acoustic performance were tested, and the magnetic circuit was disassembled to check for any powder leakage contamination of the magnetic circuit. The test results are detailed in Table 2 below.
[0079] Table 2
[0080] As can be seen from the experimental results in Table 2, the change in F0 of the loudspeaker in all three groups of experiments was within 20 Hz, which is within the acceptable range of 60 Hz, and is therefore considered OK.
[0081] Meanwhile, the sound-generating units 20 of the three loudspeakers were disassembled to observe the powder leakage in the magnetic circuit system. No powder leakage was found in any of the three loudspeakers, indicating that each loudspeaker performed OK in the reliability test.
[0082] In summary, the sound-generating device provided by the present invention, while meeting the requirements for acoustic performance reliability, can increase the filling amount of sound-absorbing material 40 in the rear acoustic cavity and improve filling efficiency.
[0083] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
