Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Volume of moving object

If the traditional magnetic circuit system is used with separate voice coil arrangements, then the structure is simple, but the space at the bottom of the voice coil is wasted and the magnetic flux density (BL) is insufficient

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvespace utilizationVSAvoidmagnetic flux density (BL)
Core Design Contradiction:
Volume of moving objectVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the magnetic circuit systems of the first and second voice coils by stacking the first main magnet on the second main magnet and connecting their magnetic gaps. This integration allows the first voice coil to utilize the magnetic field generated by both the first and second main magnets, effectively using the space below the second voice coil that would otherwise be wasted, thereby increasing the magnetic flux density (BL) of the first voice coil.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extends the magnetic circuit system in the vertical dimension by stacking main magnets and arranging auxiliary magnets at different heights. The first auxiliary magnets are positioned above the second auxiliary magnets, creating a multi-level magnetic field structure that enables the first voice coil to access magnetic flux from multiple sources, thus improving BL without increasing horizontal space occupation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Volume of moving object

If the voice coils are arranged with projections overlapping, then space is saved, but the magnetic circuit system cannot effectively utilize the space below the voice coils

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvespace utilizationVSAvoidmagnetic circuit system structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Volume of moving objectVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the magnetic circuit system into distinct components: first main magnet and second main magnet stacked vertically, first auxiliary magnets positioned above second auxiliary magnets, and corresponding pole plates. This segmentation allows each component to serve specific functions while collectively improving space utilization below the voice coils without creating excessive structural complexity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent implements a nested arrangement where the first auxiliary magnets are positioned above the second auxiliary magnets, and the first main magnet is stacked on the second main magnet. This nested structure allows the magnetic fields to overlap and interact, enabling the first voice coil to utilize the magnetic flux from both main magnets while maintaining a compact overall structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #7Nested doll (Nesting)

3Manufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the first magnetic gap and second magnetic gap by positioning the first auxiliary magnets above the second auxiliary magnets and connecting them through the stacked main magnets. This connection creates an integrated magnetic circuit where magnetic flux can flow through both gaps, increasing the magnetic flux density (BL) experienced by the first voice coil while maintaining a manageable structural complexity.
