The multi-function sound producing device further includes a vibrator 4 suspended within the accommodating cavity 11 and located on a side of the magnetic circuit system 23 away from the vibration system 22, and a coil 5 assembled to the vibrator 4, the magnetic circuit system 23 interacting with the coil 5 to drive the vibrator 4 to vibrate back and forth in a second direction, and at the same time, the magnetic circuit system 23 drives the sound producing unit 2 to vibrate in the second direction, the second direction being perpendicular to the first direction.

[0020] As can be seen, the vibration system 22 of the speaker is driven by the magnetic circuit system 23 to vibrate along a first direction to produce sound, the vibrator 4 of the motor is driven by the interaction between the magnetic circuit system 23 and the coil 5 to vibrate back and forth along a second direction, and the sound-producing unit 2 is driven by the magnetic circuit system 23 to vibrate back and forth along the second direction, so that the speaker and the motor share one magnetic circuit system 23, and the sound-producing unit 2 and the vibrator 4 are assembled into one housing 1, which greatly reduces the space occupied, and the sound-producing unit 2 and the vibrator 4 form a double vibration system 22, in which the sound-producing unit 2 can vibrate in cooperation with the vibrator 4 in addition to producing sound, which not only improves the vibration effect, but also avoids adding parts and further saves space.

[0021] Referring to Figures 1, 2 and 3, the multifunctional sound producing device further includes a first elastic member 6 connected to the housing 1 and the sound producing unit 2 respectively, and a second elastic member 7 connected to the housing 1 and the vibrator 4 respectively, i.e., the sound producing unit 2 is suspended in the accommodating cavity 11 by the first elastic member 6, and the vibrator 4 is suspended in the accommodating cavity 11 by the second elastic member 7.

[0022] 1, in one embodiment, the first elastic members 6 are disposed on opposite sides of the sound-producing unit 2 in the second direction, and the first elastic members 6 are spaced apart from the second elastic members 7 along the first direction. Specifically, two first elastic members 6 are symmetrically disposed on both sides of the frame 21, and the sound-producing unit 2 is disposed between the two first elastic members 6, so that the magnetic circuit system 23 can drive the sound-producing unit 2 to move along the second direction, and the first elastic members 6 are spaced apart from the second elastic members 7 to ensure that the vibrations between the sound-producing unit 2 and the vibrator 4 do not interfere with each other.

When the magnetic circuit system 23 drives the sounding unit 2 to move along the second direction, the second elastic arm moves in a direction close to the first elastic arm, and the distance between the first elastic arm and the second elastic arm becomes smaller. When the first elastic member 6 drives the sounding unit 2 to return, the second elastic arm moves in a direction away from the first elastic arm, and the distance between the first elastic arm and the second elastic arm becomes larger. Preferably, a spacer is fixed on both the opposing sides of the first elastic arm and the second elastic arm, and the spacer buffers the collision between the second elastic arm and the first elastic arm, and the first elastic member 6 can be prevented from being damaged by the collision between the second elastic arm and the first elastic arm. According to actual needs, the first elastic member 6 may be V-shaped, compressed spring-shaped, etc., and the spacer may be made of elastic materials such as foam, rubber, silicone rubber, etc.

Specifically, the main body 41 may be a flat plate, and the mass blocks 43 are fixedly connected to the plate surface of the main body 41 on the side away from the housing 1, so that the mass blocks 43 can increase the motion inertia of the vibrator 4 and improve the vibration effect. Here, the side of the mass block 43 closer to the housing 1 is in contact with the side wall portion 42, i.e., the mass block 43 is aligned with the side wall portion 42, which is advantageous for quickly and accurately fixing the mass block 43 to the main body portion 41, and the main body portion 41, the side wall portion 42 and the mass block 43 are installed symmetrically, which further improves the vibration effect of the vibrator 4.

When the vibrator 4 moves along the second direction by the magnetic circuit system 23 interacting with the coil 5, the mass block 43 causes the elastic structure 72 to deform.

Since the coil 5 is installed opposite the magnetic gap 231, both the main magnet steel 232 and the sub magnet steel 233 can apply magnetic force to the coil 5 in cooperation with each other, and the magnetic forces applied to the coil 5 by the main magnet steel 232 and the sub magnet steel 233 respectively make the coil 5 move in the same direction, so that the vibration of the vibrator 4 is facilitated. According to actual needs, the inner magnetic circuit or winding hole of the coil 5 is made opposite to the magnetic gap 231, and the bearing part 71 is provided with an escape through groove 711, which exposes the coil 5 in the receiving cavity 11 and facilitates the heat dissipation and cooling of the coil 5.

Specifically, the diaphragm 221 includes a first surround connected to the frame 21 and the dome bobbin 222, and a second surround connected to the inner edge of the first surround and the main magnet steel 232, respectively.

When the magnetic circuit system 23 drives the vibration system 22 to vibrate along the first direction to produce sound, the voice coil 223 drives the diaphragm 221 to vibrate along the first direction through the dome bobbin 222; specifically, after the voice coil 223 is energized, the voice coil 223 vibrates along the first direction within the magnetic gap 231 due to the action of the main magnet steel 232 and the sub magnet steel 233, and further drives the diaphragm 221 to vibrate, thereby realizing the vibration of the sound-producing unit 2 to produce sound; during the vibration of the diaphragm 221, the dome bobbin 222 increases the strength of the sound-producing unit 2, improves the acoustic performance of the sound-producing unit 2, and improves the sound quality of the entire sound-producing unit 2.
