Solution Overview

Problem

The existing process for magnetizing multiple magnetic circuits in loudspeaker modules is inefficient due to the need for low-solidification-temperature adhesives, which result in low production efficiency and high costs, and the magnetic attraction between components complicates adhesive bonding.

Innovation Solution

A process where un-magnetized magnetic circuit assemblies are first assembled using adhesives and then magnetized using separate magnetizing coils, allowing for the selection of adhesives with higher solidification temperatures and reduced magnetic attraction during bonding.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If low-solidification-temperature adhesives are used to bond magnetized assemblies, then the adhesive can be applied, but the production efficiency decreases due to long solidification duration

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveadhesive applicabilityVSAvoidproduction efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by assembling the magnetic circuit components in an un-magnetized state before magnetization. This allows the use of high-temperature adhesives with short solidification times, as the adhesive bonding occurs before any heat treatment that would affect magnetism. The sequence is reversed from conventional methods: assembly first, then magnetization, enabling efficient production with standard adhesives.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Ease of manufacture

If low-solidification-temperature adhesives are used, then the adhesive can bond the assemblies, but the adhesion force is insufficient to meet product requirements

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by assembling the magnetic circuit components in an un-magnetized state before magnetization. This allows the use of high-temperature adhesives with short solidification times, as the adhesive bonding occurs before any heat treatment that would affect magnetism. The sequence is reversed from conventional methods: assembly first, then magnetization, enabling efficient production with standard adhesives.

Core Design Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies preliminary action by assembling the magnetic circuit components in an un-magnetized state before magnetization. This allows the use of high-temperature adhesives with short solidification times, as the adhesive bonding occurs before any heat treatment that would affect magnetism. The sequence is reversed from conventional methods: assembly first, then magnetization, enabling efficient production with standard adhesives.

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies inversion by reversing the conventional sequence of operations. Instead of magnetizing components first and then assembling them (which creates magnetic attraction problems), the patent assembles components in an un-magnetized state and then magnetizes the assembled structure. This inverted approach eliminates magnetic attraction during bonding while achieving the desired polarity configuration.

AI summary

A process for magnetizing multiple magnetic circuits. The process comprises the following steps: S1, fixing an un-magnetized internal magnetic circuit assembly (12) to an un-magnetized external magnetic circuit assembly (22), so as to assemble into an un-magnetized magnetic circuit assembly (32); and S2, magnetizing the un-magnetized magnetic circuit assembly (32) that is completed in the Step S1, in this step the un-magnetized internal magnetic circuit assembly (12) and the un-magnetized external magnetic circuit assembly (22) are magnetized respectively by using an internal magnetic circuit magnetizing coil (40) and an external magnetic circuit magnetizing coil (50), so as to complete the process for magnetizing multiple magnetic circuits.
