Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of sound reproduction by means of loudspeakers, also called electrodynamic or electroacoustic transducers.
- Sound reproduction consists in converting an electric energy (or power) into acoustic energy (or power).
- the electrical energy is most often delivered by an amplifier whose power characteristic can vary from a few Watts for domestic audio installations of low power, to several hundred - or thousands - Watts for some professional sound installations (studios). recording, musical scenes, public spaces, etc.).
- the acoustic energy is radiated by a membrane whose displacements cause variations in the pressure of the surrounding air, which propagate in the space in the form of an acoustic wave.
- the membrane is moved by a voice coil comprising a solenoid immersed in a magnetic field and traversed by a current (from the amplifier).
- a voice coil comprising a solenoid immersed in a magnetic field and traversed by a current (from the amplifier).
- LAPLACE force a force known as "LAPLACE force”
- the human ear is considered sensitive to sound over a frequency range (called the audible band) of 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz (20 kHz). Sounds below 20 Hz are called “infrasound”; those higher than 20 kHz are called “ultrasound”. Infrasound and ultrasound are perceived by some animals but are considered imperceptible to the human ear (one can about it to refer to the general works such as The Sound of technical book, Volume 1, Fundamentals, 3rd Edition, Chapter 4, Auditory perception, pp.191 -192).
- the reproduction of low frequencies requires a large transducer, and therefore a large diaphragm capable of a large amplitude.
- the reproduction of the high frequencies can only be satisfactory with a small source, ie a small membrane.
- the deflections of this small membrane will be of low amplitude.
- an electrodynamic loudspeaker is generally designed to reproduce a reduced range of frequencies, within which the response of the transducer can be optimized.
- the acoustic frequency response of such a transducer is usually represented in the form of a curve illustrating the variations in the sound pressure level of the signal (expressed in dB, on a linear scale generally between 60 dB and 110 dB) as a function of the signal frequency (expressed in Hz, generally on a logarithmic scale between 20 Hz and 20 kHz). If one counts in theory three families of transducers: serious, medium and acute, in practice however the classification is finer, because the response of a transducer is a continuous function which can overlap several ranges of frequencies.
- a transducer designed to reproduce bass can provide a suitable response in the lower part of the medium (low medium); similarly an acute transducer may offer a suitable response in the upper part of the medium (upper medium), so that by misuse of language it is customary to designate by:
- bass transducer means a transducer capable of reproducing the bass and at least the low medium
- “Medium transducer” a transducer adapted to reproduce the medium and at least an upper part of the bass and / or at least a lower part of the treble;
- acute transducer a transducer capable of reproducing the treble and at least the high medium.
- a transducer In addition to differences in size, the design of a transducer varies depending on whether it is a bass or midrange transducer, or an acute transducer. Thus, although there are many forms of membranes, the conical shape (or pseudoconic, depending on the profile of the generator) is nowadays most used in the transducers of bass and medium, while dome membranes are the most used in the treble transducers.
- transducers To obtain a reproduction of the entire audible band, it is customary to combine several transducers to produce a sound reproduction system.
- a common solution is to combine three specialized transducers: one for the bass, one for the medium and one for the treble.
- the transducers are generally mounted on the same acoustic enclosure, most commonly on the same face (called the front face of the enclosure).
- the number of "channels" is equal to the number of segmentations performed on the audible band.
- the number of channels of a speaker corresponds to the number of transducers it includes.
- an enclosure comprising a bass transducer and a treble transducer is a two-way speaker.
- the filter of a two-way speaker comprises a low-pass type filtering section, connected to the system's bass transducer and which mainly leaves only frequencies below a predetermined cutoff frequency, and a section of high-pass type filtering, connected to the system's treble transducer and which predominantly passes frequencies higher than the chosen cutoff frequency.
- the coaxial mounting of the transducers does not solve the problem of controlling the directivity.
- the acoustic radiation of a transducer is generally not spatially homogeneous.
- the membrane, of small size in front of the wavelength can be considered as a point source radiating an omnidirectional spherical wave.
- the membrane, large in size in front of the wavelength can no longer be considered as an omnidirectionally radiating sound source, but tends to become directive.
- the recombined signal coming from such a loudspeaker system may comprise both a signal component radiated in a directional manner from one of the transducers (for example from the high-frequency radiant transducer) and an omnidirectionally radiated signal component from the other transducer (e.g., from the lower-spectrum high-frequency transducer).
- the recombined signal is not homogeneous in space, and that the perception by the human ear can be altered. Indeed, the acoustic signal coming from the speaker is not the same in all directions, the various signals arriving at the ears of the listener (direct signal and reflected signals on the walls of the room) will not be coherent, this lack of coherence being detrimental to the sound reproduction quality.
- any transducer increases with frequency.
- the professionals of the sound system know that the public of an auditorium placed out of the axis of the loudspeakers does not perceive the treble.
- a well known technique for controlling the directivity of a loudspeaker system is to use a compression chamber horn horn transducer mounted coaxially to the back of a bass transducer, so called main transducer, conical diaphragm.
- a horn and compression chamber transducer has other advantages.
- the membrane does not radiate directly into the airspace, the radiation being forced to pass into a restricted space (called throat) of lower section than that of the membrane, hence the term "compression chamber".
- the efficiency of a transducer is defined as the quotient between the acoustic energy radiated throughout the airspace by the transducer, and the electrical energy absorbed (or consumed) by it.
- the efficiency of direct-acting electrodynamic direct-current transducers of the Rice-Kellog type is particularly low, of the order of a few to a few thousand percent (without exceeding, or rarely, 5%).
- I EC 60268-5 recommends a source sound power measurement. Neglecting the directivity of the transducer, its level of efficiency, also called sensitivity level, that is to say the sound pressure (in dB) generated by it in free field in half-space (“half-space free field ”) at 1 meter, for an electrical power input of 1 W, allows a good approximation of its efficiency.
- the efficiency level is expressed in dB / W at 1 meter. This measurement is made in the useful band of the transducer and in the axis, and can constitute the frequency response curve thereof.
- thermal compression a phenomenon of limitation of the acoustic level
- the coaxial speaker system with treble transducer with horn and compression chamber is prized by sound professionals for its high performance. It is this type of system that the invention aims to perfect. Despite its qualities, it has a number of defects, among which we can mention:
- the delay of the acute channel on the serious path can be compensated by active filtering of the digital type (known by the acronym DSP, Digital Signal Processing). But this compensation can only be partial, generally in the axis.
- the more conventional (and less expensive) passive filtering technologies with inductors and capacitors can not compensate for the significant delay that is measured on known coaxial systems, which can reach 250 ⁇ .
- Such a delay although weak in appearance, has a significant psycho-acoustic effect, and degrades the quality of the sound reproduction. It contributes, among other things, to the reputation of "bad sound realism" or "poor sound quality" that sound engineers usually associate with professional sound.
- the invention aims to make a contribution to the resolution of the problems mentioned above by making improvements to coaxial speaker systems with a compression chamber.
- a coaxial speaker system with at least two channels comprising a main electrodynamic transducer for the reproduction of low frequencies and / or medium, which comprises:
- a main magnetic circuit defining a main air gap

- the temporal delay of the first relative to the second can be minimized, in favor of acoustic homogeneity
- the axial size of the system is equal to that of the bass transducer, and the extra mass becomes negligible
- the passage section of the magnetic flux is less limited and it is possible to maximize the value and the concentration of the magnetic field of the main transducer, because it is no longer necessary to pierce the magnetic circuit thereof to provide a passage constituting a flag start for the treble transducer.

- the architecture of the secondary transducer may advantageously be of the "endoskeletal" type and have a fixed internal frame called an endoskeleton on which the mobile element of the secondary transducer is mounted via an internal suspension to the diaphragm, moving element of the secondary transducer preferably being free of suspension external to the diaphragm.

More specifically, the ratio between the free length and the thickness of the suspension 66 is preferably less than 5 (in this case this ratio is less than 3). The fact of thus minimizing the free length of the suspension 66 makes it possible to stabilize the moving element 48 and prevent it from tilting (anti-pitching effect).
- the suspension 66 On the side of its inner edge 67, the suspension 66 is housed in the groove 61 by being slightly compressed between the flanges 63, 64 so as to avoid unwanted noise, but without being fixed thereto.
- the inner diameter of the suspension 66 is greater than the internal diameter of the groove 61 (that is to say the outer diameter of the core 65 of the rim), so that an annular space 69 is provided. between the suspension 66 and the core 65.
- the suspension 66 is floating relative to the rim 58 of the plate 53, with a possibility of radial deflection, the suspension 66 being able to slide relative to the flanges 63, 64.
- a layer of pasty lubricant such as grease.
- the radial clearance defined by the annular space 69 between the suspension 66 and the core 65 is preferably less than 1 mm. According to a preferred embodiment, this game is approximately 0.5 mm. In the figures we exaggerated this game for the sake of clarity.
- the suspension 66 can be glued inside the flanges 63, 64 instead of simply being greased.
- the dimensioning of the radial clearances will be of the conventional type and not reduced as in the floating assembly described above.
- the mobile assembly 48 will be centered with respect to the air gap by means of a centering tool (also called “false bolt"), as described below with respect to the suspension variant 66 of the "spider" type shown in FIG.
- the portion of the suspension 66 housed in the groove 61 is of width (measured radially) greater than or equal to its thickness, so as to guarantee a mechanical connection of the support-plane type and to minimize any adverse effect of tilting of the suspension 66 relative to the plate 53.
- the suspension 66 thus extends internally to the diaphragm 49. The suppression of an external peripheral suspension makes it possible to eliminate the acoustic interference existing in the known transducers between the radiation of the diaphragm and that of its suspension.
- suspension 66 exerting no radial stress on the diaphragm 49, it does not impose a centering function thereof with respect to the secondary magnetic circuit 34, to the benefit of the assembly simplicity of the secondary transducer 3 , or the replacement of the diaphragm 49 in case of failure.
- the centering of the diaphragm 49 is achieved at the level of the voice coil 50, which is adjusted with little play on the core 37 and centers itself automatically with respect thereto when the voice coil 50, immersed in the magnetic field of the gap 47, is set in motion by an electric modulation current.
- suspension 66 provides a return function of the moving element 48 towards a median rest position, adopted in the absence of axial stress exerted on the voice coil 50 (that is, in practical, in the absence of current running through it). It is in this middle position that the secondary transducer 3 is shown in the figures.
- the suspension 66 also provides a function of maintaining the attitude of the diaphragm 49, that is to say of maintaining the peripheral edge 51 of the diaphragm 49 in a plane perpendicular to the secondary axis A2, in order to avoid any tilting or pitch of the diaphragm 49 which would interfere with its operation.
- FIG. 6 shows an alternative embodiment of the secondary transducer 3, referred to as “non-floating", which is different from the preferred embodiment which has just been described by the design of the suspension 66 and the shape of the endoskeleton 52 .
- the suspension 66 is indeed spider type and made of a fabric of natural fibers (for example cotton) or synthetic (for example polyester, polyacrylic, nylon, and more particularly aramids, including Kevlar, registered trademark) or in a mixture natural and synthetic fibers (for example cotton-polyester), these fibers being impregnated with a thermosetting or thermoplastic resin, which, after conformation by thermoforming, gives strength, stiffness and elasticity to the suspension 66.
- the suspension comprises an annular, flat, plane inner portion 98 bonded to an upper face 99 of the plate 53, and a peripheral portion 100 which extends around the inner portion 98.
- the peripheral portion 100 extends radially freely at the plate 53 and includes corrugations 101 which can be obtained by thermoforming.
- the suspension 66 is fixed, by gluing, on the inner surface of the diaphragm 49, near the peripheral edge 51 thereof.
- the voice coil 50 comprises a cylindrical support integral with the diaphragm 49 and on which the solenoid would be mounted
- the suspension 66 could be fixed, by its outer edge, on the inner surface of this support.
- the moving element 48 must be perfectly centered with respect to the magnetic circuit 34, and more precisely with respect to the gap 47 in which the voice coil 50 is housed.
- a centering assembly (still called false breech) is used in which the endoskeleton 52 is positioned.
- the centering assembly comprises a bore (of a diameter equal to that of the housing 55) into which the rod 54 of the endoskeleton 52.
- the bonding of the suspension 66 on the plate 53 is then performed.
- the internal diameter of the voice coil 50 is centered with respect to the bore of the centering assembly, which ensures the centering of the moving element 48 with respect to the endoskeleton 52.
- the assembly comprising the moving element 48 and the endoskeleton 52 can then be mounted perfectly centered in the magnetic circuit 34, in manufacture as in the case of repair by replacement of the moving assembly. .
- the electric current is fed to the voice coil 50 by two electrical circuits 70 which connect the ends of the voice coil 50 to two electrical terminals (not shown) for supplying the transducer 3.
- each electrical circuit 70 comprises:
- a conductor 71 of large section comprising a copper wire insulated by a plastic sheath, passing through the magnetic circuit 34 being housed in a groove made longitudinally in the rod 54 of the endoskeleton 52, and a bare front end 72 opens into the internal volume of the diaphragm 49 protruding from the magnetic circuit 34 at one of the holes 60 of the disc;
- an electrical junction element in the form of, for example, a metal eyelet 73 (made of copper or brass) crimped into this hole 60 and to which the stripped end 72 of the conductor 71 is electrically connected (for example via a weld spot, not shown);
- a conductor 74 of small section in the form of a very flexible and suitably shaped metal braid, which extends in the internal volume of the diaphragm 49 by stepping over the rim 58 and the suspension 66, in the case of the preferred embodiment said "Floating assembly" and an inner end 75 of which is electrically connected to the eyelet 73 (eg via a weld, not shown), and an opposite outer end of which is electrically connected to one end of the coil mobile 50
- a single conductor 74 of small section is visible in Figure 2, the second conductor of small section, diametrically opposed to the first, being located in front of the sectional plane of the figure.
- the secondary transducer 3 finally comprises a waveguide 76, integral with the magnetic circuit 34.
- the waveguide 76 is in the form of a one-piece part made of a material having a high thermal conductivity, greater than 50 W m -1 K -1 , for example aluminum (or in an aluminum alloy ).
- the waveguide 76 is fixed on the yoke 36 and comprises a substantially cylindrical outer side wall 77 which extends in the extension of the side wall 40 of the yoke 36.
- the fastening is preferably carried out by screwing, using a number of screws equal to or greater than 3. To maximize contact thermal between the two parts, it is advantageous to complete this screwing by a coating of thermally conductive paste.
- the waveguide 76 has, on a rear peripheral edge, a skirt 78 which fits over a recess 79 made in the yoke 36, of complementary profile. This results in a precise centering of the waveguide 76 with respect to the yoke 36 and, more generally, with respect to the magnetic circuit 34 and the diaphragm 49. In addition, the thermal conduction between the two parts 36, 76 is is improved.
- the waveguide 76 has a rear face 80 having a substantially spherical cap shape, which extends concentrically with the diaphragm 49, opposite and in the vicinity of an outer face thereof that it partially covers.
- the rear face 80 is perforated and comprises a continuous peripheral portion 81 extending in the vicinity of the rear edge of the waveguide 76, and a discontinuous central portion 82. by a series of fins 83 protruding radially from the side wall 77 inwardly (i.e. towards the axis A2 of the transducer 3).
- the rear face 80 is delimited internally - that is to say on the side of the diaphragm 49 - by a ridge 84 of petaloid shape.
- the fins 83 do not meet on the axis A2 but stop at an inner end located at a distance from the axis A2. At their apex, the fins 83 each have a curvilinear edge 85.
- the side wall 77 of the waveguide 76 is delimited internally by a discontinuous frustoconical front face 86 distributed over a plurality of angular sectors 87 which extend between the fins 83.
- This front face 86 forms a flag primer extending from the interior to the outside and from a rear edge, formed by the petaloid ridge 84 constituting a groove of the flag primer 86, to a front edge 88 which constitutes a mouth of the flag primer 86.
- the angular sectors 87 of the flag primer 86 are portions of a cone of revolution whose axis of symmetry coincides with the secondary axis A2, and whose generator is curvilinear (for example according to a circular law, exponential or hyperbolic).
- the flag primer 86 ensures a continuous adaptation of impedance acoustic between the air environment delimited by the throat 84 and the air medium delimited by the mouth 88.
- the tangent to the flag primer 86 on the mouth 88 forms with a plane perpendicular to the axis A2 of the secondary transducer 3 an angle of between 30 ° and 70 °. In the example illustrated in the drawings, this angle is about 50 °.
- the fins 83 each laterally have two cheeks 89 which are connected externally to the angular sectors 87 of the flag primer 86 via leaves 90.
- the waveguide 76 forms not a flag primer but a complete flag (for example symmetrical of revolution about the secondary axis A2), the groove 84 of which is circular in outline and whose length is such that, when the secondary transducer 3 is mounted in the main transducer 2, the mouth 88 may extend, as in FIG. 8, beyond the level of the peripheral suspension 27 of the membrane 23.
- the waveguide 76 defines on the diaphragm 49 two distinct and complementary zones, namely:
- the rear face 80 of the waveguide 76 and the corresponding external covered area 92 of the diaphragm 49 define between them a volume of air 93 called a compression chamber, in which the acoustic radiation of the vibrating diaphragm 49 driven by the voice coil 50 moving in the gap 47 is not free, but compressed.
- the internal zone 91 uncovered communicates directly with the groove 84 opposite, which concentrates the acoustic radiation of the entire diaphragm 49.
- the compression ratio of the transducer 3 is defined by the quotient of its emitting surface, corresponding to the plane surface delimited by the overall diameter of the membrane 49 (measured on the edge 51) by the surface delimited by the projection, in a plane perpendicular to the axis A2, of the groove 84.
- This compression ratio is preferably greater at 1, 2: 1, and for example about 1, 4: 1.
- Higher compression ratios, for example up to 4: 1, are conceivable.
- the secondary transducer 3 is mounted in the main transducer 2 at a time:
- the secondary transducer 3 is fixed on the main magnetic circuit 4 at the front of the latter, being received, as we have already seen, in the space delimited rearward by the front face 11 of the 10, and laterally by the inner wall of the cylindrical support 26, the yoke 36 of the secondary magnetic circuit 34 being plated directly or via a spacer against the front face 11 of the core 10.
- the secondary transducer 3 has an overall diameter smaller than the inside diameter of the cylindrical support 26.
- a weak clearance of a few tenths of a millimeter constitutes a good compromise (on the Figures 1 and 7 this game was exaggerated, for the sake of clarity of the drawings).
- the rod 54 of the endoskeleton 52 is received in the bore 1 2 of the core 10, and the secondary transducer 3 is rigidly fixed to the magnetic circuit 4 of the main transducer 2 by means of a nut 94 screwed onto a threaded portion of the rod 54 and clamped against the cylinder head 6 with possible interposition of a washer, as shown in Figure 1.
- This assembly described as “frontal” as opposed to the rear mounting in which the transducer is mounted on the rear face of the cylinder head (see for example the Tannoy US patent 4, 164,631), is made possible by the particular architecture of the acute transducer 3 which is of the so-called “endoskeletal” type.
- locating the suspension 66 within the dome-shaped diaphragm 49 and producing the suspension 66 in an acoustically non-emissive material suppresses acoustic interference between the suspension 66 and the diaphragm 49.
- the fact that the suspension 66 extends inside the diaphragm 49 and not outside thereof makes it possible to increase the emitting surface to 100% of the overall diameter of the diaphragm 49.
- the architecture of the transducer 3 allows, with an overall diameter of the equal transducer, an increase in the emitting surface of up to 17%. The result is a gain in sensitivity of about 1.4 dB.
- the diameter of the voice coil 50 can be increased, being made equal to the diameter of the diaphragm 49. This results in an increase in the permissible power of the voice coil 50, proportional to the increase of its diameter. More specifically, an increase in the diameter of the voice coil by 20% induces an equivalent gain in power handling.
- the transducer 3 is delivered from the radial space of a support external to the diaphragm 49.
- the ratio Emitting surface / Overall radial dimension (equal to the quotient of the squares of the radii of the diaphragm and of the transducer), which can be approximately 70%, is thus significantly increased. .
- This ratio makes it possible to carry out a flag starter 86 axially short, which effectively allows the transducer 3 to be mounted axially and frontally in the bass transducer 2, with tangential connection of the flag primer 86 to the profile of the membrane 23. of the bass transducer 2.
- the transducer 3 is delivered from the radial bulk of a support external to the diaphragm 49 since this support is made by means of an endoskeleton 52.
- This aspect combined with the increase in the diameter of the voice coil 50, equal to that of the diaphragm 49, makes it possible to increase the diameter of the magnetic circuit 34, which can equal the overall diameter of the transducer 3, as appears in FIG. 2 and FIG.
- the axial positioning of the secondary transducer 3 with respect to the main transducer 2, and the geometry of the waveguide 76, are such that the membrane 23 extends in the extension of the primer flag 86, as shown in FIG.
- the tangent to the flag primer 86 on the mouth 88 coincides with the tangent to the membrane 23 on its central opening 28.
- the waveguide 76 and the transducer membrane 23 main 2 together form a complete flag for the secondary transducer 3, allowing the two transducers 2, 3 to have homogeneous directivity characteristics.
- the waveguide 76 forming a complete horn is independent of the diaphragm 23 of the main transducer 2.
- the directivity characteristics of the two transducers 2, 3 are distinct and can be optimized separately, which is advantageous in some applications such as back-stage speakers.
- the waveguide 76 provides, in addition to the acoustic impedance matching of the secondary transducer 3 between the groove 84 and the mouth 88, a heat dissipation function produced at the level of the magnetic circuit 34, thanks in particular to the presence of the fins 83.
- the waveguide 76 acting as a radiator may comprise, in cavities 96 formed in the outer periphery of the lateral wall 77 opposite each fin 83, complementary reliefs 97. formed by radial outer fins which extend radially to the overall diameter of the transducer 3, without exceeding it.
- each fin 83 whose cheeks 89, on the one hand are inclined from the base of the fin 83 located on the side of the diaphragm (and carrying the central portion 82 from the rear face 80) towards its summit ridge 85, located at the front, and secondly connect to the flag primer 86 by leaves 90 with circular section, aims to minimize the influence of the fins 83 on the acoustic radiation of the diaphragm 49.
- the system 1 can be mounted on any type of loudspeaker, for example a stage return speaker 95, with an inclined end face, as illustrated by way of example in FIG. 9.
- a stage return speaker 95 for example a stage return speaker 95, with an inclined end face, as illustrated by way of example in FIG. 9.
