Definitions

  • Such a transducer may be a loudspeaker or a microphone.
  • Each one includes a movable diaphragm, which interacts with the surrounding atmosphere to either produce sound waves, or to be set into motion by sound waves.
  • the present invention relates to both types of electro-acoustic transducers. However, for the sake of clarity, only loudspeakers will be shown and described herein.
  • the speaker diaphragm shown in United States Patent 3,171,904 In order to obtain good high frequency response, it would be necessary for the speaker diaphragm shown in United States Patent 3,171,904, to have a much greater number of conductors for a given area to provide adequate electromagnetic energy, and to attain the desired impedance.
  • the current industry standard is a resistance of between four and eight ohms, to accomodate standard amplifiers.
  • the elongate peaks and troughs are not secured together, or otherwise supported, except at the side edges of the folded film, thereby resulting in a flimsy structure.
  • the troughs and the conductors thereon are not securely positioned in alignment with the magnetic structure.
  • sideward movement of the troughs is possible, and hence, the desired precise magnetic interaction between the current carrying conductors on the diaphragm troughs and the magnet rods, can not be achieved, for some applications.
  • the sheet 32 is affixed to the interconnecting portions, which provide substantial surface areas of attachment so as to securely attach the sheet 32 to the sheet 34A and its projections P. In this manner, the sheet 32 remains substantially flat during use, to provide the desired frequency response character­istics.
  • the diaphragm 12 oscillates and thus the vanes 35 move longitudinally within the pole pice gaps 47, as a result of the dynamic electromagnetic interaction between the current carrying conductor portions on the vanes and the permanent magnet pole pieces.
  • the same oscillating movement of the vanes 35, and attached backing sheet 32 also causes air to be displaced from the gaps 47 for cooling purposes, thereby relieving heat build-up.
  • Such a greater flow rate of air is desirable, since heat build-up increases as the diaphragm is driven harder, especially where it is driven beyond desired limits and since in some applications (such as automotive) ambient temperatures are high.
  • a longitudinally extending portion 109 is disposed parallel to the portion 83 and connects the portion 107 and a transversely extending portion 112.
  • the portion 109 extends parallel to the portion 83 and the portion 112 extends parallel to the portion 85.
  • the diaphragm 186 is generally similar to the diaphragm 12 of Fig. 1, and includes a series of spaced-apart, longitudinally extending projections in the form of vanes of fins, such as vanes 187 and 189, which are channel-shaped throughout their length and U-shaped in cross-section.
  • a series of three outer voice coil conductors 192, 194 and 196 are deposited on the outer surface of the vane 187 in a similar manner as the outer voice coil conductors are connected to the diaphragm 12.
  • a series of inner voice coil conductors 198, 201 and 203 are deposited on the inner surface of the vane 187 opposite the corresponding respective outer conductors.
  • acoustic transducer 213 which is also constructed in accordance with the present invention, and which has a diaphragm 213A.
  • the diaphragm 213A is generally similar to the diaphragm 186, of Fig. 6, except the manner in which the diaphragm 213A is rigidified.
  • a foam backing sheet 258 is disposed in place in a manner similar to the foam backing sheet 190.
  • a series of elongated depending ridges, such as the ridges 261 and 263, are disposed in the upper portions of the interior of the vanes, such as the corresponding vanes 243 and 244.
  • the ridges 261 and 263 serve the same purpose as the channels 240 of the diaphragm 225A.
