AI Technical Summary
Existing sound units are prone to segmentation vibrations when working at high frequencies, resulting in unclear sound quality, and increasing the thickness of the ball can lead to increased weight and reduced mid-frequency sensitivity.
Using a skeleton design, including body, reinforcement ribs and support arms, the vibration system rigidity is enhanced by an integrated structure and the segmentation vibration is improved without increasing the overall height. Lightweight materials such as aluminum or aluminum-magnesium alloys are combined with press edges and press groove designs to improve rigidity.
While keeping the sound generating unit thinner, high-frequency segmentation vibration is improved, high-frequency performance is improved, and medium-frequency sensitivity is maintained, avoiding the overall height increase.

The magnetic circuit assembly 2 includes a yoke 21 and a boss 22, a central magnetic structure 23 and a side magnetic structure 24 respectively arranged on the yoke 21. The side magnetic structure 24 is connected to the chassis 1. A magnetic gap is formed between the central magnetic structure 23 and the side magnetic structure 24. The central magnetic structure 23 is integrally in a ring frame shape. The boss 22 is located in the hollow area of the central magnetic structure 23. A conductive member 8 is arranged on the boss 22. One end of the conductive member 8 is exposed on the bottom surface of the yoke 21 to be electrically connected to an external power source; the boss 22 and the yoke 21 can either be an integral structure formed by integral processing or a split structure fixed by gluing, hot melting or other means;
[0043] The framework 3 includes a body 31 and reinforcing ribs 32. A window is provided in the central region of the body 31. Opposite sides of the window respectively have support arms 33 that are bent downward. The reinforcing ribs 32 are located within the window, and both ends of the reinforcing ribs 32 are respectively connected to the body 31. The voice coil 4 is connected to the body 31 and is arranged corresponding to the magnetic gap. The dome 6 is arranged on the body 31 and covers the window to seal the window.
[0044] The diaphragm 5 includes an inner fixing portion 51, a surround portion 52, and an outer fixing portion 53 that are connected in sequence from the inside out. The inner fixing portion 51 is in the shape of a ring frame and is connected to the body 31. The inner fixing portion 51 surrounds the body 31 to achieve a sealed connection with the body 31. The outer fixing portion 53 is connected to the chassis 1.
[0045] The shaping support piece 7 includes an inner mounting portion 71, a cantilever portion 72, and an outer mounting portion 73 that are connected in sequence. The inner mounting portion 71 is fixed on the boss 22. The support arm 33 is fixedly connected to the outer mounting portion 73. The voice coil 4 is electrically connected to the conductive member 8 through the shaping support piece 7.
[0046] Specifically, the outer mounting portion 73 includes a first plate portion 731, a raised portion 732, and a second plate portion 733 that are connected in sequence. The first plate portion 731 and the second plate portion 733 are respectively perpendicular to the raised portion 732. The first plate portion 731 and the second plate portion 733 are located on opposite sides of the raised portion 732. The first plate portion 731 is fixed on the body 31. The support arm 33 is fixedly connected to the second plate portion 733. The second plate portion 733 is connected to the cantilever portion 72. A first solder pad for welding the lead of the voice coil 4 is provided on the first plate portion 731. A second solder pad that is electrically conductive with the first solder pad is provided on the inner mounting portion 71. The second solder pad is electrically connected to the conductive member 8.
[0047] For convenient processing and manufacturing, the body 31, the reinforcing ribs 32, and the support arms 33 are integrally formed as an integral structure. The framework 3 is made of a material with low density, such as aluminum, aluminum-magnesium alloy, magnesium-aluminum alloy, etc. This can minimize the increase in the weight of the vibration system and reduce the impact on the performance sensitivity of the sound generating unit.
[0048] To improve the rigidity of the support arm 33 and enable the support arm 33 to play a better supporting role, optionally, the support arm 33 is provided with stamping ribs 331.
[0049] As a preferred embodiment, in this embodiment, the top surface of the reinforcing rib 32 is flush with the top surface of the edge of the window, and the bottom surface of the reinforcing rib 32 is flush with the bottom surface of the edge of the window.
[0050] To make the overall height of the sound - generating unit lower, the outer edge of the body 31 has a crimping edge 311, and the inner edge of the inner fixing part 51 is located within the crimping edge 311 and is fixedly connected to the crimping edge 311. Optionally, the inner edge of the inner fixing part 51 is adhesively connected to the body 31. Additionally, the setting of the crimping edge 311 can enhance the rigidity of the skeleton 3 itself, thereby improving the rigidity of the vibration system of the sound - generating unit.
[0051] A pressing groove is provided in the central region of the body 31, and the window is located at the bottom of the pressing groove. The setting of the pressing groove can also improve the rigidity of the skeleton 3 itself.
[0052] At least a part of the dome 6 is received in the pressing groove. With the assistance of the pressing groove, the dome 6 can be easily positioned and installed. To make the overall sound - generating unit thinner and lighter, it is preferred that the top surface of the dome 6 is lower than or flush with the top surface of the body 31. In actual products, it is also acceptable that the top surface of the dome 6 is higher than the top surface of the body 31.
[0053] In the sound - generating unit, the reinforcing rib 32 corresponds to the hollow region of the central magnetic structure 23. When looking down at the sound - generating unit, the pressing groove is located within the hollow region of the central magnetic structure 23. Therefore, during the operation of the sound - generating unit, the reinforcing rib 32 will not collide with other components and will not increase the overall thickness of the sound - generating unit.
[0054] The number of the reinforcing ribs 32 is one or more. In this embodiment, the number of the reinforcing ribs 32 is two, and the two reinforcing ribs 32 are arranged side by side. In other embodiments, the two reinforcing ribs 32 can also be cross - arranged, and at this time, the two reinforcing ribs 32 form an X - shaped structure.
[0055] Embodiment Two
[0056] Please refer to Figure 4 Embodiment Two of the present utility model is a further improvement made on the basis of Embodiment One. The difference from Embodiment One is that at least two reinforcing ribs 32 are connected by a connecting rib 35.
[0057] In this embodiment, the connecting rib 35 and the two reinforcing ribs 32 form an H - shaped structure. It is preferred that the connecting rib 35 is a part of the region of the skeleton 3, that is to say, the reinforcing rib 32 and the connecting rib 35 are an integrally - formed integral structure.
[0058] Embodiment Three
[0059] Please refer to Figure 5, Embodiment 3 of the present utility model is a further improvement made on the basis of Embodiment 1. The difference from Embodiment 1 lies in that: there is a reinforcing concave platform 321 on the reinforcing rib 32. The reinforcing concave platform 321 can be a stamping structure formed by stamping. The presence of the reinforcing concave platform 321 can improve the structural strength of the reinforcing rib 32, further improving the rigidity of the framework 3, thereby more greatly improving the splitting vibration of the sounding unit vibration system at high frequencies.
[0060] The above are only optional embodiments of the present utility model, and do not limit the patent scope of the present utility model accordingly. Any equivalent structural transformation made under the inventive concept of the present utility model by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present utility model, or any direct / indirect application in other related technical fields is included in the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
