AI Technical Summary
Existing sound units suffer from low BL values and low sensitivity because the shaped support plates occupy too much space in the side magnetic structure installation.
A sound-generating unit is designed, employing a side magnet structure with a single clearance gap and a shaped support with double-sided conductive traces. This reduces the space occupied by the shaped support, increases the overall volume of the side magnet structure, and enhances the movement space of the voice coil.
By increasing the overall volume of the edge magnetic structure, the BL value of the sound-generating unit is increased, significantly improving sensitivity.

Abstract
Description
Sound unit Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electroacoustic converter technology, and in particular to a sound generating unit. Background Technology
[0002] As electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets become smaller and thinner, the installation space left for sound-emitting units is getting smaller and smaller. However, the sensitivity requirements for sound-emitting units are also increasing. Therefore, how to improve the sensitivity of sound-emitting units under the constraints of product structure and size has become a difficult problem that industry technicians need to overcome.
[0003] Existing drivers typically have shaped supports installed at the four corners of the voice coil. These supports are fixedly connected to the frame. Some drivers also require the use of these supports for circuit routing. The presence of four shaped supports in a driver undoubtedly occupies a significant amount of space for the side magnet structure, resulting in a smaller overall volume of the side magnet structure. Consequently, the overall BL value of the driver is low, and the sensitivity of the driver unit is low. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide a high-sensitivity sound-generating unit.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a sound-generating unit, including a voice coil, a frame, a magnetic circuit assembly, and a shaping support; the magnetic circuit assembly is connected to the frame, and the magnetic circuit assembly includes a yoke and a side magnetic structure disposed on the yoke, the side magnetic structure having a clearance gap; the shaping support is located at the clearance gap, and the shaping support includes an inner mounting part, a cantilever part, and an outer mounting part connected in sequence; the inner mounting part is fixedly connected to the voice coil, and the outer mounting part is fixedly connected to the frame; the inner... The front of the mounting part is provided with a first lead pad and a second lead pad. The back of the external mounting part is provided with a first external pad and a second external pad. The front of the shaping support piece is provided with a first trace, one end of which is connected to the first lead pad, and the other end of which is connected to the first external pad through a first through hole. The back of the shaping support piece is provided with a second trace, one end of which is connected to the second lead pad through a second through hole, and the other end of which is connected to the second external pad.
[0006] In one embodiment, the number of cantilever portions in the shaping support is one.
[0007] In one embodiment, the voice coil is generally rectangular, and the clearance is provided at one corner of the voice coil.
[0008] In one embodiment, the edge magnetic structure includes an edge magnet, which is an integrally formed structure.
[0009] In one embodiment, the edge magnetic structure includes four edge magnetic components, each edge magnetic component comprising an edge magnet, and the clearance gap is located between two of the edge magnets.
[0010] In one embodiment, the magnetic circuit assembly further includes a central magnetic structure disposed on the yoke, the side magnetic structure being disposed around the central magnetic structure, a magnetic gap being formed between the central magnetic structure and the side magnetic structure for the voice coil to move, and the clearance gap communicating with the magnetic gap.
[0011] In one embodiment, the first via is a metallized via.
[0012] In one embodiment, the second via is a metallized via.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: The sound-generating unit has a novel structure. The side magnetic structure of the sound-generating unit has only one clearance gap. Compared to existing sound-generating units with four clearance gaps, the overall volume of the side magnetic structure in this sound-generating unit can be set to be larger, thereby increasing the BL value of the sound-generating unit and improving its sensitivity. Furthermore, the shaping support adopts a double-sided conductive wiring design, which minimizes the width of the cantilever portion of the shaping support, thereby reducing the space occupied by the shaping support within the sound-generating unit. This allows for a larger overall volume of the side magnetic structure, further enhancing the sensitivity of the sound-generating unit. Attached Figure Description
