Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a speaker with a sound generation part of a large area.
  • a speaker is an electromechanical device converting an electric signal into vibration of a diaphragm such that a longitudinal wave is generated in air, thereby sound wave radiates.
  • FIGS. 1A and 1B are sectional views of a conventional speaker.
  • a frame 11 includes an opened top and a bottom portions, a through-hole 11 a is formed on a middle portion of the bottom portion of the frame 11.
  • the frame 11 includes a horizontal flange part 13 on a top portion and a vertical flange part 15 extending toward the top at the outer circumference of the horizontal flange part 13.
  • a sound generation part 21 is coupled to the horizontal flange part 13.
  • the sound generation part 21 includes an edge 22 and a diaphragm 23.
  • the edge 22 has a ring shape and the bottom of the outer circumference is coupled to the horizontal flange part 13.
  • the diaphragm 23 has a cone shape and is coupled to the bottom of the inner circumference of the edge 22. Therefore, when power is applied to a voice coil 31, the voice coil 31 vibrates, which is caused due to electromagnetic force generated between the voice coil 31 and a magnetic circuit part (not shown).
  • the magnetic circuit part is coupled to the bottom portion of the frame 11 near the through-hole 11 a. Consequently, the sound generation part 21 vibrates, thereby generates a sound.
  • a middle and bass range sound quality is determined according to the area of the sound generation part 21, i.e., the diameter of the sound generation part 21.
  • the outer circumference of the diaphragm 23 is coupled to the horizontal flange part 13 and thus the diameter of the sound generation part 21 shortens by a portion of the edge 22, which contacts the horizontal flange part 13. Therefore, the middle and bass range sound quality is reduced by a shortened area of the sound generation part 21.
  • Korean Patent Publication No. 2003-66822 discloses "SPEAKER SURROUND STRUCTURE MAXIMIZING CONE DIAMETER", in which the top at the outer circumference of skirt 16a in a surround-suspension 16 combines with the inner surface at an top of a basket 10.
  • the outer circumference of the skirt 16a in the surround-suspension 16 which vibrates up and down, contacts the inner surface of the top of the basket 10. Therefore, the contact portions of the basket 10 and the skirt 16a are mutually pressed, such that it is difficult to attach to each other.
  • the surround-suspension 16 may be torn down, due to crack of the attached portion between the basket 10 and the skirt 16a while moving the surround-suspension 16.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a speaker capable of improving a sound quality in middle and bass range.
  • Embodiments of the present invention provide a speaker including: a frame including a ring-shaped flange part, a cone-shaped receiving part, and a ring-shaped protrusion part, the cone-shaped receiving part extending toward one side of a vertical direction of the flange part at the inner circumference of the flange part, the ring-shaped protrusion part protruding in a direction opposite to the receiving part at the outer circumference of the flange part; a sound generation part including an edge and a diaphragm, the edge having a ring-shaped curved part and a flat part, the ring-shaped curved part coupling the inner surface at the outer end part to the outer circumference of the protrusion part, the flat part protruding from the inner end part of the curved part, the diaphragm having the outer circumference coupled to the flat part; a magnetic circuit part coupled to the receiving part and generating a magnetic force; and a voice coil coupled to the diaphragm and vibrating through an operation

  • the coil 135 is coiled into the outer circumference in the bottom of the bobbin 131.
  • the voice coil 130 vibrates up and down, due to an electromagnetic force generated between the coil 135 and the magnetic circuit part 120. Then, the sound generation part 210 vibrates due to the voice coil such that a sound is reproduced.
  • a ring-shaped damper is placed in frame 110 of the bottom of the sound generation part 210.
  • the outer circumference of the damper is coupled to the frame 110, and its inner circumference is coupled to the outer circumference of the bobbin 131.

  • the diameter of the sound generation part 210 lengthens by the length L (referring to FIG. 3 ), which is from the protrusion part 115 to the inner circumference of the flange part 111. Therefore, a bass and middle range sound quality can be improved.
  • the curved part 212 of the edge 211 When pressing the curved part 212 of the edge 211 from the outside of the frame 110 toward the protrusion part 115, the curved part 212 can be closely attached to the protrusion part 115. This makes a manufacturing process easier. Moreover, when the sound generation part 210 vibrates toward the bottom, the curved part 212 can be more firmly attached to the protrusion part 115. Therefore, there is no possibility of the edge 211 disengaging from the protrusion part 115.
