Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electroacoustic converter technology, and in particular to a miniature loudspeaker. Background Technology

[0002] Miniature speakers are widely used in portable electronic devices such as mobile phones, laptops, and hearing aids. With the rapid development of these portable electronic devices, the requirements for the thickness of the miniature speakers used in them are becoming increasingly stringent. The smaller the thickness of the miniature speaker, the smaller the internal space, which undoubtedly leads to a smaller overall volume of the magnet, resulting in a certain degree of performance degradation of the miniature speaker.

[0003] Moreover, in the existing technology, the centering support of conventional superlinear miniature loudspeakers is located at the four corners of the voice coil. The side magnets of miniature loudspeakers need to reserve enough space for the centering support, which results in a significant reduction in the volume of the side magnets and seriously affects the performance of the loudspeaker.

[0004] In addition, in existing technologies, voice coils are often rectangular. Due to the influence of the production stretching process, the dimensional accuracy of the four corners of the voice coil has a large deviation. Therefore, the corners of the central magnetic structure of the miniature loudspeaker need to be made to a certain extent, so that the volume of the central magnetic structure cannot be maximized. This is undoubtedly one of the factors affecting the performance of the miniature loudspeaker. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide a high-performance miniature loudspeaker.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a miniature loudspeaker, comprising:

[0008] A magnetic circuit assembly includes a yoke and a central magnetic structure and two U-shaped side magnetic structures respectively disposed on the yoke. The central magnetic structure is located between the two side magnetic structures and surrounds the two side magnetic structures to form a racetrack-shaped magnetic gap. An opening is formed between the ends of the two side magnetic structures to connect the outer side of the side magnetic structure with the magnetic gap.

[0009] The voice coil is generally racetrack shaped and is positioned corresponding to the magnetic gap;

[0010] The centering support includes an inner fixing part, a cantilever part, and an outer fixing part connected in sequence.

[0037] Example 1

[0038] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first embodiment of this utility model is as follows: a miniature loudspeaker, including a frame 1, a magnetic circuit assembly 2, a voice coil 3, a centering support 4, and a diaphragm assembly 5. The magnetic circuit assembly 2 includes a yoke 21 and a central magnetic structure 22 and two concave-shaped side magnetic structures 23 respectively disposed on the yoke 21. The central magnetic structure 22 is located between the two side magnetic structures 23 and forms a racetrack-shaped magnetic gap with the two side magnetic structures 23. An opening 24 is formed between the ends of the two side magnetic structures 23, connecting the outer side of the side magnetic structure 23 and the magnetic gap. It is easy to understand that the central magnetic structure 22 is waist-shaped when viewed from above.

[0039] The diaphragm assembly 5 connects the voice coil 3 and the frame 1. The voice coil 3 is generally racetrack shaped and is set in accordance with the magnetic gap.

[0040] The centering support 4 includes an inner fixing part 41, a cantilever part 42 and an outer fixing part 43 connected in sequence. The outer fixing part 43 is connected to the frame 1. The cantilever part 42 is located outside the side magnet structure 23. The inner fixing part 41 extends into the mouth 24 and is connected to the voice coil 3.

[0041] Since the voice coil 3 is racetrack-shaped, the magnetic utilization rate of the outer corner of the side magnetic structure 23 is low. In this embodiment, the outer corner of the side magnetic structure 23 is provided with a clearance notch 231. A part of the cantilever 42 is located in the clearance notch 231 and forms at least one bending area 421. The clearance notch 231 that accommodates the cantilever 42 is set in a region with low magnetic utilization rate. This can take into account both the magnetic field strength of the miniature speaker and the total length of the cantilever 42.

[0042] The diaphragm assembly 5 includes a diaphragm 51, a dome 52, and a frame 53. The diaphragm 51 is connected to the dome 52 and the frame 53, and / or the frame 53 is connected to the diaphragm 51 and the dome 52, and / or the dome 52 is connected to the diaphragm 51 and the frame 53.

[0043] In this embodiment, the frame 53 includes a connected annular portion 531 and a connecting arm 532. The connecting arm 532 connects to the inner fixing portion 41. The dome 52 seals the hollow area of ​​the annular portion 531. The annular portion 531 and the connecting arm 532 are integrally formed. The connection between the connecting arm 532 and the inner fixing portion 41 can improve the support effect of the centering support plate 4 on the diaphragm assembly 5. Optionally, the connecting arm 532 is provided with a reinforcing rib 533. The presence of the reinforcing rib 533 can improve the structural strength of the connecting arm 532 itself.

[0044] To improve the structural strength of the dome 52, the dome 52 has a downwardly recessed platform 521 at its center, and the top surface of the central magnetic structure 22 has a groove 221 for avoiding the platform 521. Specifically, the central magnetic structure 22 includes a central magnet and a central washer, the central magnet connecting the yoke 21 and the central washer, and the groove 221 is located on the top surface of the central washer.

[0045] The edge magnet structure 23 includes an edge magnet and an edge washer. The edge magnet connects the edge washer to the yoke 21, and the edge washer connects to the frame 1. For ease of manufacturing, in this embodiment, the two edge washers are connected by a connecting part. The edge washer and the connecting part are integrally formed. Specifically, the two edge washers and the two connecting parts form a ring-shaped structure, reducing the number of components in the miniature speaker and facilitating its assembly. Preferably, the edge washer and the frame 1 are integrally injection molded. The edge magnet is a single concave magnet, or it can be a concave magnet composed of multiple small magnets.

[0046] Optionally, the miniature speaker also includes a front cover 6 connected to the frame 1. In this embodiment, the outer edge of the diaphragm 51 is sandwiched between the front cover 6 and the frame 1. More specifically, the frame 1 is provided with a hot-melt column 11, and the frame 1 and the front cover 6 are hot-melt connected.

[0047] The above are merely optional embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the inventive concept of this utility model and the contents of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
