Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained on the premise that those skilled in the art do not perform creative labor shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0019] At the same time, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the present invention provides a sound emitting device 100, and the sound emitting device 100 includes a frame 1, a vibration system 20 fixed to the frame 1 respectively, and a magnetic circuit system 30 that drives the vibration system 20 to vibrate and generate sound.

[0020] The frame 1 includes an upper cover 11, a lower cover 13, and a middle frame 12 located between the upper cover 11 and the lower cover 13. The upper cover 11, the middle frame 12, and the lower cover 13 are covered and connected together to form a space for accommodating the vibration system 20 and the magnetic circuit system 30.

[0021] The vibration system 20 includes a vibration assembly 21 on which a vibration membrane 210 is installed, and a voice coil 22 that drives the vibration membrane 210 to vibrate and generate sound. The voice coil 22 is of a track type, and the voice coil 22 includes a pair of longitudinal sides 221 and a pair of short transverse sides 222.

[0022] The magnetic circuit system 30 includes a yoke 31 fixed to the frame 1 and a magnetic steel assembly 32 fixed to the yoke 31. The magnetic steel assembly 32 has a magnetic gap 301. The magnetic steel assembly 32 includes a main magnetic steel 321 and a secondary magnetic steel 322 that is installed to surround the main magnetic steel 321 and forms the magnetic gap 301 at an interval from the main magnetic steel 321. The voice coil 22 is inserted into the magnetic gap 301. The secondary magnetic steel 322 includes two first secondary magnetic steels 3221 located on opposite sides of the main magnetic steel 321 and two second secondary magnetic steels 3220 located on the other opposite sides of the main magnetic steel 321. In this embodiment, the two first secondary magnetic steels 3221 are located on both sides of the longitudinal side 221 of the voice coil 22, and the two second secondary magnetic steels 3220 are located on both sides of the short side 222 of the voice coil 22.

[0023] In this embodiment, the second secondary magnetic steel 3220 includes a main body portion 3222 and an extending portion 3223 that extends by being bent from the main body portion 3222 toward the first secondary magnetic steel 3221. The projection of the extending portion 3223 along the extending direction of the short side 222 of the voice coil 22 is at least partially located in the voice coil 22. Thereby, in the existing space, the second secondary magnetic steel 3220 can be increased to improve the BL (magnetic force) of the magnetic circuit system. In this embodiment, the projection of the extending portion 3223 along the extending direction of the short side 222 of the voice coil 22 is entirely located in the voice coil 22. Further, the projection of the first secondary magnetic steel 3221 along the extending direction of the longitudinal side 221 of the voice coil 22 is entirely located in the extending portion 3223. That is, an extending surface 32231 facing the first secondary magnetic steel 3221 is provided on the extending portion 3223, and the length of the extending surface 32231 along the extending direction of the short side 222 of the voice coil 22 is equal to or greater than the length of the first secondary magnetic steel 3221 along the extending direction of the short side 222 of the voice coil 22. Thereby, the BL can be maximized and improved under the same dimensional conditions. Further, the extending surface 32231 may be in contact with the first secondary magnetic steel 3221 or may be installed at an interval facing the first secondary magnetic steel 3221.

[0024] Furthermore, the extending portion 3223 further includes an outer arc surface 32232 connecting one end of the extending surface 32231 and the outer surface of the main body portion 3222, and an inner arc surface 32233 connecting the other end of the extending surface and the inner surface of the main body portion. The outer arc surface 32232 and the outer surface of the corresponding yoke 31 are in the same plane, and the inner arc surface 32233 is installed facing the corner of the voice coil 22.

[0025] Also, in both of the two second auxiliary magnetic steels 3220, the extending portion 3223 is installed, and at both ends of each second auxiliary magnetic steel 3220, the extending portion 3223 is installed. Thereby, the first auxiliary magnetic steel 3221 and the second auxiliary magnetic steel 3220 are installed around the voice coil 22, maximizing the area of the auxiliary magnetic steel 322 and improving the BL.

[0026] The magnetic circuit system 30 further includes a main pole plate 331 disposed on the main magnetic steel 321, a sub-pole plate 332 disposed on the auxiliary magnetic steel 322, and an upper magnetic steel 34 disposed on the main pole plate 331. The sub-pole plate 332 has a hollow annular structure, and the diaphragm 210 is fixed to the upper magnetic steel 34. The upper magnetic steel 34 can not only fixedly support the diaphragm 210 but also improve the BL.

[0027] In this embodiment, the sound emitting device 100 further includes a ventilation isolation member 40. One end of the ventilation isolation member 40 is fixed to the second auxiliary magnetic steel 3220, and the other end is fixed to the lower cover 13.

[0028] Thereby, in this embodiment, by installing the extending portion 3223 on the second auxiliary magnetic steel 3220, and the projection of the extending portion 3223 along the extending direction of the short side 222 of the voice coil 22 is at least partially located on the voice coil 22, the area of the auxiliary magnetic steel 322 is increased, the BL of the magnetic circuit system is improved, and the performance of the sound emitting device 100 is improved.

[0029] What has been described above is only embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the technical field to which the present invention pertains, various modifications can be made without departing from the creative concept of the present invention, and all of these should be understood to belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
