[0020] Example: As shown in the attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2As shown, a unidirectional microphone with a leaf spring damping plate structure includes a housing 1, in which a back pole film 2, a gasket 3, a back pole plate 4, a short nickel ring 5, a leaf spring damping plate 6, a high nickel ring 7, a PCBA board 8 and a plastic ring 9 are sequentially installed. The back pole film 2 and the PCBA board 8 are respectively fixedly mounted at both ends of the interior of the housing 1. The back pole film 2 and the PCBA board 8 are both provided with sound inlet holes. The back pole plate 4, the short nickel ring 5 and the leaf spring damping plate 6 are arranged In the plastic ring 9, one end of the high nickel ring 7 close to the leaf spring structure damping plate 6 is located inside the plastic ring 9, and the end of the high nickel ring 7 away from the leaf spring structure damping plate 6 is located outside the plastic ring 9. The leaf spring structure damping plate 6 includes a substrate 61 and a leaf spring 62. The leaf spring 62 is fixedly installed on the substrate 61. Four leaf springs 62 are provided, and the four leaf springs 62 are equidistantly fixedly connected to the edge of the substrate 61. A through hole is opened at the center of the substrate 61, and a damping film is installed at the through hole.
[0021] The sound inlet hole opened on the back pole membrane 2 is a 0° sound inlet hole, the sound inlet hole opened on the PCBA board 8 is a 180° sound inlet hole, the thickness of the gasket 3 is 30um, and the gasket 3 is arranged in a ring shape.
[0022] The leaf spring structure damping plate 6 is assembled between the short nickel ring 5 and the high nickel ring 7 and is assembled together with the back plate 4 in the plastic ring 9 to form one pole of the parallel plate capacitor; the back plate membrane 2 serves as the other pole of the parallel plate capacitor, and the gasket 3 is arranged between the two poles to provide space for the diaphragm to vibrate.
[0023] The leaf spring 62 is used to buffer and disperse the pressure from the high nickel ring 7 and the PCBA board 8 from top to bottom, and can achieve a certain range of distance adjustment.
[0024] The base plate 61 and the leaf spring 62 are integrated.
[0025] The substrate 61 and the leaf spring 62 are made of copper material, which has good elasticity and conductivity, and can transmit analog electrical signals to the chip, facilitating subsequent signal processing and output.
[0026] As attached Figure 3 As shown, the sound source is at 180°: signal P, the first path P1 faces the 180° sound inlet, passes through the cavity, the damping mesh, the plate hole, and reaches the diaphragm. At this point, P1 is weakened by distance damping and delay. The second path P2, after a certain distance and delay, reaches the 0° sound inlet and reaches the diaphragm. The weakened P1 is almost close to the weakened P2. The diaphragm is subjected to the same sound pressure on both sides, and the sensitivity is the lowest at this time.
[0027] When the sound source is at 0°, the first path of signal P, P1, faces the 0° sound inlet, with the shortest distance affecting the diaphragm. The second path, P2, travels a certain distance and delay to reach the 180° sound inlet, then passes through the cavity, the damping mesh, and the plate holes before reaching the diaphragm. At this point, the diaphragm's movement is primarily driven by P1, as P1's energy is much greater than P2's. Therefore, 0° is the most sensitive.
[0028] The advantages of this application are:
[0029] 1. The leaf spring structure damping plate 6 can achieve a certain range of pressure adjustment, making the sound transmission path inside the product smoother;
[0030] 2. The leaf spring structure damping plate 6 can reduce the pressure on the back plate and the back film, and the parallelism of the two poles of the parallel plate capacitor is stronger.
[0031] 3. The first-time production yield of products using this structure will be about 5% to 10% higher than that of products with conventional damping plates, effectively improving the overall yield and thus reducing production costs.
[0032] 4. The reliability test of the product using this structure has a small change range before and after the test, which is 0.5-1.0dB smaller than the change range before and after the reliability test of the current single-point product on the market.
[0033] 5. The leaf spring structure damping plate can, to a certain extent, reduce the impact of sudden external impact on product performance.
[0034] The leaf spring structure damping plate 6 is used to buffer and disperse the pressure from the high nickel ring and the PCBA board from top to bottom, which can achieve a certain range of distance adjustment and effectively avoid the disadvantages of too rigid dimensional fit.
[0035] The use of the leaf spring structure damping plate 6 can greatly reduce costs and increase efficiency for manufacturers, and the product quality is more reliable; for consumers, the product shelf life is longer and the product has a stronger ability to withstand the external environment.
