Solution Overview

Problem

In conventional moving coil sounding devices, the voice coil is prone to damage from long-term vibration, affecting sound quality and stability due to electrical connections and uneven diaphragm vibrations, leading to instability and distortion.

Innovation Solution

A sounding device design featuring a vibrating system with a magnetic vibrating plate and transmission piece, where two driving units with coils connected in parallel drive the diaphragm, enhancing driving force, vibration amplitude, and balance by using a magnetic vibrating plate and transmission piece to generate sound, while maintaining electrical connections through a circuit board.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If a voice coil is used to drive the diaphragm to vibrate, then the diaphragm can generate sound, but the voice coil is prone to damage from long-term vibration affecting reliability

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevoice coil durabilityVSAvoidservice life under vibration
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDuration of action of moving object

Solution Approach 1:

The patent extracts the voice coil from the system and replaces it with a magnetic vibrating plate driven by electromagnetic coils. The magnetic vibrating plate is suspended in the accommodating space and driven by magnetic force from the coils, eliminating the mechanical wear and damage issues of the traditional voice coil while maintaining the vibration generation function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

2Reliability

If the voice coil is electrically connected with external components, then electrical signal transmission is achieved, but the vibration affects the stability of the electrical connection

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveelectrical connection stabilityVSAvoidconnection stability under vibration
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent removes the voice coil that caused vibration-related connection instability and replaces it with a magnetic vibrating plate system. The electromagnetic coils are fixed to the shell and do not vibrate with the diaphragm, while the magnetic vibrating plate is driven by magnetic field rather than direct mechanical coupling, thus stabilizing electrical connections.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)

3Force

If a single driving unit is used, then the structure is simple, but the vibration amplitude and driving force are insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedriving forceVSAvoidnumber of driving units
Core Design Contradiction:
ForceVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple electromagnetic coils (first electromagnetic coil and second electromagnetic coil) to drive the magnetic vibrating plate simultaneously. This merging of multiple driving units increases the driving force and vibration amplitude while maintaining a relatively compact structure within the accommodating space.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

4Manufacturing precision

If the voice coil drives the diaphragm directly, then the structure is simple, but uneven amplitudes in different regions affect tone quality

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetone quality uniformityVSAvoidvibrating system structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Manufacturing precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a transmission piece that connects the magnetic vibrating plate to the diaphragm. This transmission piece segments and distributes the vibration force more evenly across the diaphragm surface, ensuring uniform amplitude distribution and improving tone quality while adding necessary structural elements.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation
