[0035] The utility model provides a sound-emitting unit. It can be understood that the sound-emitting unit is applied to electronic devices, such as mobile phones, speakers, computers, headphones, watches, televisions or tablet computers, etc., which are not limited here.

[0036] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the sound-emitting unit according to the embodiment of the utility model comprises: a housing 1, a vibration system 2 and a front cover 3;

[0037] The vibration system 2 includes a diaphragm 201, the outer periphery of which is fixed to the outer shell 1, and the front cover 3 is disposed on the outer shell 1 and the diaphragm 201 is located between the front cover 3 and the outer shell 1. Specifically, the front cover 3 can be first bonded to the diaphragm 201, and then the diaphragm 201 is bonded to the outer shell 1. The front cover 3 can protect the components inside the sound unit. The outer periphery of the diaphragm 201 is bent and extended in a direction close to the front cover 3 to form a first flange portion 2011, and the outer periphery of the front cover 3 is bent and extended in a direction close to the diaphragm 201 to form a second flange portion 301. The first flange portion 2011 is bonded and connected with the second flange portion 301. Specifically, the bonding of the first flange portion 2011 and the second flange portion 301 includes horizontal bonding in the horizontal direction and side bonding in the Z-axis direction (i.e., the vertical direction).

[0038] Specifically, the outer periphery of the diaphragm 201 is fixed to the outer shell 1, the front cover 3 is arranged on the outer shell 1 and the diaphragm 201 is located between the front cover 3 and the outer shell 1, the outer periphery of the diaphragm 201 is bent and extended in the direction close to the front cover 3 to form a first flange portion 2011, the outer periphery of the front cover 3 is bent and extended in the direction close to the diaphragm 201 to form a second flange portion 301, the first flange portion 2011 is fitly connected with the second flange portion 301, by setting the first flange portion 2011 on the outer periphery of the diaphragm 201, setting the second flange portion 301 on the outer periphery of the front cover 3, and the first flange portion 2011 is fitly connected with the second flange portion 301, the bonding area of ​​the diaphragm 201 can be increased, and the planar bonding size of the diaphragm 201 can be reduced while ensuring the bonding area that meets the waterproof performance requirements, so that the diaphragm 201 can provide more space for vibration and sound generation, thereby improving the product SD (sound radiation area) of the sound unit, thereby improving the acoustic performance of the sound unit.

[0039] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments of the utility model, the diaphragm 201 also includes an external fixing portion 2012, a folding ring portion 2013 and an internal fixing portion 2014 which are arranged in sequence from the outside to the inside, and the end of the external fixing portion 2012 away from the folding ring portion 2013 is connected to the first flange portion 2011, the external fixing portion 2012 is fixed to the outer shell 1, and the external fixing portion 2012 is clamped between the front cover 3 and the outer shell 1. In this embodiment, the external fixing portion 2012 is horizontally bonded to the outer shell 1 and the front cover 3. Through the bonding between the external fixing portion 2012 and the outer shell 1 and the front cover 3, the diaphragm 201 is fixed while meeting the waterproof performance requirements.

[0040] like Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, in an embodiment of the utility model, the first flange portion 2011, the outer fixing portion 2012, the folding ring portion 2013 and the inner fixing portion 2014 are formed as an integrally formed structure. By adopting the integrally formed structure, the diaphragm 201 is easy to process, the process flow can be simplified, and the cost can be reduced. In this embodiment, the first flange portion 2011, the outer fixing portion 2012, the folding ring portion 2013 and the inner fixing portion 2014 are processed by integral hot pressing or integral injection molding.

[0041] In the embodiment of the utility model, the folding ring portion 2013 is recessed and extends in a direction away from the front cover 3. By designing the structure of the folding ring portion 2013 to be recessed and extends in a direction away from the front cover 3, it is avoided that when the diaphragm 201 vibrates, the folding ring portion 2013 collides with the front cover 3 and affects the sound effect of the sound unit.

[0042] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, in the embodiment of the utility model, the vibration system 2 also includes a vibration plate 202, and the vibration plate 202 includes a main body 2021 and a connecting portion 2022 arranged on the outer periphery of the main body 2021, the connecting portion 2022 is formed by bending and stretching the main body 2021 in a direction away from the front cover 3, the connecting portion 2022 is connected to the inner fixing portion 2014, and the inner fixing portion 2014 and the main body 2021 are located in the same plane, and the connection portion 2022 is provided to facilitate connection and fixation with the inner fixing portion 2014, and the main body 2021 and the connecting portion 2022 are provided, the connecting portion 2022 is formed by bending and stretching the main body 2021 in a direction away from the front cover 3, and after the connecting portion 2022 is connected to the inner fixing portion 2014, the inner fixing portion 2014 and the main body 2021 are located in the same plane, and through the above-mentioned structural design, the Z-direction space occupied by the assembly structure of the diaphragm 201 and the vibration plate 202 is reduced, so that the overall structure of the sound-emitting unit is more compact.

[0043] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the utility model, the housing 1 is provided with a mounting step 101, and the mounting step 101 has a first mounting surface 1011 and a second mounting surface 1012 which are arranged at an angle, a portion of the outer periphery of the diaphragm 201 is fixed to the first mounting surface 1011, and the first flange portion 2011 is fixed to the second mounting surface 1012, thereby, the first mounting surface 1011 and a portion of the outer periphery of the diaphragm 201 are horizontally bonded, and the second mounting surface 1012 and the first flange portion 2011 are laterally bonded, and the bonding effect of the diaphragm 201 can be improved by means of horizontal bonding and side bonding, and the waterproof performance requirements of the sound unit can be met. At the same time, the bonding size of the diaphragm 201 in the horizontal direction can be reduced, thereby providing more space for increasing the product SD and improving the acoustic performance of the sound unit.

[0044] like Figure 1-Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments of the utility model, the height of the second mounting surface 1012 along the vibration direction of the diaphragm 201 is not lower than the height of the first flange portion 2011 along the vibration direction of the diaphragm 201. By designing the height of the second mounting surface 1012 along the vibration direction of the diaphragm 201 to be not lower than the height of the first flange portion 2011 along the vibration direction of the diaphragm 201, it is ensured that the side surface of the first flange portion 2011 can be completely bonded to the second mounting surface 1012, and the bonding area is ensured to meet the waterproof performance requirements; in this embodiment, the height of the second mounting surface 1012 along the vibration direction of the diaphragm 201 is flush with the height of the first flange portion 2011 along the vibration direction of the diaphragm 201.

[0045] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the first flange portion 2011 and the second flange portion 301 both extend along the vibration direction of the diaphragm 201. Thus, the first flange portion 2011 and the second flange portion 301 can be completely fitted along the vibration direction of the diaphragm 201, thereby improving the sealing effect between the first flange portion 2011 and the second flange portion 301.

[0046] In the embodiment of the utility model, the first flange portion 2011 is located on the outer peripheral side of the second flange portion 301. Since the first flange portion 2011 is located on the outer peripheral side of the second flange portion 301, the extension area of ​​the diaphragm 201 in the horizontal direction can be increased, and the sound radiation area of ​​the diaphragm 201 can be improved. Moreover, the above arrangement enables the first flange portion 2011 and the second flange portion 301 to be bonded sideways, ensuring that the improved structure can meet the waterproof performance requirements. Of course, it can be understood that the first flange portion 2011 can also be arranged on the inner peripheral side of the second flange portion 301, and the arrangement can be selected according to actual use requirements, and the utility model does not make specific restrictions on this.

[0047] like Figure 1-Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of the utility model, the front cover 3 includes a main body portion 302 and a bending extension portion 303 arranged on the periphery of the main body portion 302, the bending extension portion 303 is bent relative to the main body portion 302 in a direction close to the diaphragm 201 and extends outward relative to the main body portion 302, and the outer peripheral portion of the bending extension portion 303 is bent in a direction close to the diaphragm 201 to form a second flange portion 301, and the front cover 3 and the diaphragm 201 are bonded and fixed by the second flange portion 301. By providing the bending extension portion 303, the cavity volume inside the sound unit is increased while the assembly requirements of the sound unit are guaranteed.

[0048] like Figure 1-Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, in the embodiment of the utility model, the main body 302, the bent extension portion 303 and the second flange portion 301 are formed into an integral bent structure. By bending the front cover 3 as a whole, the processing is convenient, the process flow can be simplified, and the cost can be reduced.
