[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of loudspeakers, in particular to a constant-curvature acoustic horn with variable directivity. Background Technique

[0002] When an electric current passes through the voice coil of a loudspeaker, the changing magnetic field causes the voice coil to move back and forth. Since the voice coil is connected to the paper cone, this movement is transmitted to the paper cone, causing it to vibrate and push the air, thus generating sound. In the structure of a loudspeaker, the design of the horn helps to enhance the clarity and dynamic range of the sound, providing a better auditory experience.

[0003] The above-mentioned devices often have the following defects: First, traditional horns have insufficient directivity control and fixed directivity, which will lead to uneven sound distribution, easy to appear dead corners or hot spots in large-area coverage, uneven sound field coverage, and easy to appear regional sound attenuation or loss, making it difficult to adapt to different sound field requirements or venue structures; Second, due to design limitations, traditional horns are prone to phase interference problems caused by sound wave superposition in a multi-speaker array, resulting in uneven frequency response and affecting the overall performance of the sound field.

Among them, the horn 1 is in the shape of a fish's mouth and its surface is a curved surface, which can ensure that when sound waves propagate, the curvature of the wavefront remains unchanged. The phase plug 11 can balance the sound wave path length, ensure that the sound wave phases on different paths are consistent, improve the high - frequency response, and reduce sound wave diffraction and reflection.

[0045] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the bottom box 3 includes an adjustable diffuser surface 4 fixedly connected by a diffuser surface fixing part 7. Among them, screws two 14 are arranged on the surface of the diffuser surface fixing part 7 and are thread - connected to the surface of the adjustable diffuser surface 4.
