Definitions
- the invention is concerned with plate loudspeakers, in particular with the improvement of the low-frequency radiation of such plate loudspeakers.
- panel loudspeakers which operate according to the multi-resonance principle and are also known under the term "distributed mode loudspreakers".
- distributed mode loudspreakers Such arrangements are essentially formed by a flat panel and at least one drive system, the panel being set in vibration, If low-frequency, electrical sound signals are supplied to the drive system.
- the drive systems for these arrangements are formed by one or a plurality of electromagnetic drivers (shakers). The latter does not exclude, however, that piezoelectric bending vibrators either exclusively or in combination with the aforementioned shakers be used as drive systems.
- peripherals In order to be able to operate the plate loudspeakers properly, they are connected to peripherals with connecting elements. On the one hand, these peripherals allow the entire record speaker to be held on the outside and, on the other hand, ensure that the weight of the panel and the drive system (s) used are favorable for sound reproduction.
- the panel of the panel loudspeaker is constructed according to the sandwich principle, in that preferably two opposing surfaces of a very light core layer are each connected to a cover layer that is thin compared to the core layer, for example by gluing. In order for the record speaker to have good sound reproduction properties, this must be done Material for the cover layer have a particularly high expansion shaft speed. Suitable cover layer materials are, for example, thin metal foils or fiber-reinforced plastic foils. Special requirements are also placed on the core layer, because this layer must above all have a particularly low density (for example 20 to 30 kg / m 3) . Furthermore, the core layer should be able to absorb high shear stresses normal to the cover layers.
- the modulus of elasticity in the direction normal to the cover layers must be sufficiently large, while its low modulus of elasticity does not interfere parallel to the cover layers.
- the core layer can show anisotropic or isotropic behavior.
- honeycombs made from light metal alloys or resin-impregnated fiber-reinforced papers (anisotropic) and rigid foams (isotropic) have proven themselves as ultra-light core layer structures.
- the edge of the panel should be "free” if possible, i.e. the transverse vibrations spreading on the panel should neither be fixed nor steamed in the edge area of the panel.
- tensioned connecting elements it is also not necessary for the tensioned connecting elements to have the same voltages in different spatial directions.
- the respective connecting elements are formed by one or both cover layers by the respective cover layers spanning the lateral distance up to the periphery, a very cost-effective unit consisting of periphery and panel can be created which is very easy to manufacture.
- the plate loudspeakers according to the invention cannot be used as mere monotonic sound reproduction arrangements. Rather, according to spoke 4, it is also possible to combine a plurality of panel loudspeakers into a larger baffle without the individual panel being connected directly to a periphery which is not excited by transducers. Rather, it has to do with .
- the invention shows that the connecting elements otherwise used for connection to a non-excited periphery (for example a frame) can also be used for the mutual and decoupled connection of adjacent panels of a larger baffle.
- this larger baffle - as already described in connection with Claim 1 - is also connected by means of corresponding connecting elements, for example to a frame
- the tension prevailing in these connecting elements can also be used to set the tension in the connecting elements which are arranged between the panels of such a baffle .
- the fine adjustment can be used decoupled and tensioned connection between two adjacent panels can be made by a corresponding size and / or material selection for the respective connecting element.
- a particularly simple adjustment of the tension in the cover layers and / or connecting elements is given if, according to spoke 5, the respective connecting elements are provided with tensioning strips at their edges, which are connected to the periphery, if the periphery is provided with edges on which the tensioning strips if the panel is connected to the periphery, and if the distance between the tensioning strips and the coordinate lines running through the center of the respective panel loudspeaker is smaller than the distances between the edges and also through the edge of a panel that is not yet connected to the periphery Center point of the peripheral coordinate lines. If the tensioning strips are connected to the edges in this case, a very uniform tension can be established in the cover layers and the connecting elements of the respective panel loudspeaker without great effort and can be defined via the respective spacing ratio.
- the vibration of the connecting elements and / or the cover layers, particularly low-frequency resonances, can be reduced in their vibration amplitudes by providing, according to Claim 8, the parts which are under mechanical stress (cover layers and / or connection elements) with damping elements.
- the mechanical stress of the connecting elements and the cover layers can also be different. Thereby damping values of different sizes can be realized very easily in the different parts.
- Figure 1 shows a plate speaker in plan view
- Figure 2 shows another plate speaker in plan view
- Figure 3 shows a panel speaker according to Figure 1 in side view
- FIG. 5a Another side view of a plate loudspeaker.
- FIG. 1 shows a sound reproduction arrangement in the form of a plate loudspeaker 11, which operates according to the “bending wave principle” already explained.
- This arrangement 10 is formed by a panel 11 and a periphery 12.
- the panel 11 which is shown in more detail in FIG. 3, has a sandwich-like structure in that a core layer 13, which in the present case has a honeycomb structure, is provided on two opposite surfaces with a thin sealing layer 14o, 14u.
- the periphery 12 is formed by an installation wall 16 provided with an opening 15.
- the panel 11 is inserted into this opening 15.
- the connection between the panel 11 and the periphery 12 in the built-in wall 16 is realized in such a way that a connecting element 17 is connected to the cover layer 14.o and the built-in wall 16.
- Figure 1 which shows a plan view of a plate loudspeaker 10
- the connecting element 17 is formed in one piece and completely covers the mutual distance A between the mutually facing edges 24 and 24 'of panel 11 and opening 15.
- the outstanding results in sound reproduction are achieved in that the cover layers 14, 14 and 14 of the panels 11 are under mechanical tension.
- the tension in the connecting elements 17, which is indicated in FIG.
- FIG. 3 by the double arrow P shown, can be achieved in the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 1 by inserting the panel 1 1 into the opening 15 in the areas of the wall 16 which are in contact with the installation wall 16 Connecting element 17 are stretched in the x and y directions (FIG. 1) before they are connected to the installation wall 16.
- the reference numeral 18 denotes drivers which cause the panel 11 to vibrate, and that, if necessary, by means of the connecting element 17 ′′ shown in broken lines in FIG a further - also tensioned - connection between the installation wall 16 and the panel 1 1 can be made.
- damping elements are designated in FIG. 3, which may be used to limit the oscillation amplitude in the case of connecting elements 17, 17 'and / or cover layers 14, 14 and 14 which are under mechanical tension.
- FIG. 2 shows a plate loudspeaker 10 which has a pure plurality of panels 11.
- the panels 1 1' surrounding the panel 1 1 ' form its periphery 12.
- the periphery 12 for all panels is formed by an independent frame 19, which all panels 1 1.
- the use of an independent frame 19 in one or more panels 1 1 has the advantage that the tension in the connecting elements 17 does not have to be carried out only when the panel or panels 11 are connected directly at the respective installation location, but already at the factory can be set very easily and precisely if the or the respective plate loudspeaker 10 is only delivered together with a frame 19.
- the plan view according to FIG. 2 also shows that the panels 11 have different dimensions and also different distances from one another or from the frame.
- the different dimensions of the panels 11 are due to the fact that the various panels 11 of the arrangement 10 shown in FIG. 2 are designed as so-called area radiators for different audio frequency ranges.
- This type of training also makes it necessary to decouple the various panels 1 1 from one another that the distances between the individual panels 1 1 and the distances between the panels 1 1 and the frame 19 are also adapted to the corresponding reproduction area of the panels 11 concerned.
- the mechanical tension in the cover layers (not shown in FIG. 2) of the various panels 11 is also adapted to the corresponding reproduction purposes.
- FIG. 4a shows an exemplary embodiment of a frame 19.
- a panel 1 1 is arranged above the frame 19.
- the cover layer projects somewhat beyond the edges 24 of the core layer 13.
- tensioning strips 20 are fastened to the edges 24 ′′ of the cover layer 14. If the cover layer 14. o is now elastically sponged in the arrow direction P 1 by external forces and lowered in this state in the direction P2 onto the frame 19, the cover layer is formed 14. o is in contact with the frame, a ratio shown in Fig. 4.
- This illustration also shows that the panel 11 is connected to the frame 19 exclusively by means of the cover layer 14. o and that the tensioning strips 20 are on the side edges 21 of the frame when the movement along the arrow direction P2 is complete.
- the distance A 'between the two clamping bars 20 is less than the distance A "between two opposite edges 21 of the frame 19 , thanks to the restoring forces in the area 17 'of the cover layer 14. o the desired mechanical tension (indicated by the double arrow) when the state shown in Figure 4b is reached.
- FIGS. 5a and b show a further exemplary embodiment of a connection under mechanical tension between a panel 11 and a frame 19.
- the distance A 'between the clamping strips 20 is equal to the distance A "between the opposite edges 21 of the frame 19.
- These spacing conditions also make it superfluous to expose the top view 14.0 in FIG. 5a for establishing the connection to the frame 19 (FIG. 5b) to a force effect (Pl) shown in connection with FIG. 4a
- Areas 17 'of the cover layer 14.0 are brought about by the fact that after the cover layer 14.o bears against the frame 19 or the tensioning strips 20 without tension at the edges 21 (shown on the left in FIG.
- one or both tensioning strips 20 in the direction of the arrow P3 are rotated so that no longer the long side 22, but the narrow side 23 of the clamping bar 20 at the edge 21 of the R ahmens 19 abuts (shown on the right side in Figure 5b).
- both cover layers 14.o and 14.u can also be under mechanical tension.
