Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates generally to loudspeaker drive units for loudspeaker systems, particularly but not exclusively ones in which a loudspeaker is driven by constant current. More particularly the invention relates to such drive units in which the vibrational system of the drive unit can be damped satisfactorily in an electromagnetic fashion.
- In the prior art, most loudspeakers are driven by amplifiers which act as a constant voltage source.
- In the case of a standard direct radiation-type speaker, its electrical impedance has a maximum value at a bass resonance frequency f₀ and increases monotonically in the high frequency band as shown by the full line Z in figure 1B of the accompanying drawings. Accordingly, when such a direct radiation-type speaker is driven by a constant voltage, the resulting drive current i has a minimum value at the bass resonance frequency f₀ and gradually decreases in the high band region as shown by the dashed line i in figure 1B. This drive current i typically provides an output acoustic pressure frequency characteristic shown in figure 1A.
- When a speaker system intended to driven by a constant voltage source, the output impedance of the signal source is designed to be substantially zero so that the braking or damping factor becomes substantially zero so that the braking or damping factor becomes substantially infinite. Therefore, the vibrating system of the speaker is damped fairly satisfactorily.
- As is well known, the vibrating system of the dynamic speaker is applied with a force proportional to the current flowing to its voice coil in accordance with Fleming's left hand rule. For this reason, the dynamic speaker is preferably driven by a constant current system. When the aforenoted speaker system is driven by a constant current signal source whose output impedance is infinite, current distortion is cancelled out by a non-linear reaction of a magnetic circuit, and it is possible to prevent the speaker system from being affected by the marked rise of electrical resistance brought about by heat generation in the voice coil.
- The increase of output acoustic pressure level corresponding to the increased electrical impedance occurs near the bass resonance frequency f₀ and in the high band. The problem thus arises that a flat reproduced acoustic pressure response is difficult to achieve. Further, the damping factor approaches zero so that the vibrating system is not adequately damped.
- In order to solve the above described problems, it has been proposed to construct a speaker system driven by a constant current by adding a suitable braking or damping resistor to its mechanical system or to its acoustic system. This proposal, however, causes the mechanical arrangement of the speaker system to become complicated.
- According to a first aspect of the invention, there is provided a dynamic loudspeaker drive unit having a vibrational system which, in use, is driven by an electrical signal to produce sound, the vibrational system including an element which forms part of a first magnetic circuit in which magnetic flux is produced by the electrical signal, comprising
- a) a damping coil provided bodily with the vibrational system of said drive unit so as to be vibrated therewith; and
- b) a damping magnetic circuit independent of the first magnetic circuit, wherein said damping coil is provided in a magnetic gap of said damping magnetic circuit and two ends of said damping coil are terminated by a predetermined impedance.
- A second aspect of the invention provides a dynamic loudspeaker drive unit having a magnetic circuit in which, in use, magnetic flux is produced by application of an electrical signal, a voice coil bobbin formed of or comprises an electrically conductive material forming a short-circuited ring and a voice coil wound around said voice coil bobbin, the voice coil and voice coil being located in a magnetic gap of said magnetic circuit.
- The invention will be further described by way of non-limitative example with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:-
- Figure 1A is a graphical representation of an output sound pressure frequency characteristic generated by a prior art speaker driven by constant current;
- Figure 1B is a graphical representation of frequency versus impedance for a drive current which drives a prior art speaker;

- Figure 2 is a sectional view of one main portion of a first embodiment of the speaker system according to the present invention, and figure 3 is a schematic diagram showing another main portion of the first embodiment of the speaker system according to the present invention.
- Referring initially to figure 2, there is provided a
dynamic speaker 10, wherein a central portion of a cone-type diaphragm 11 is bonded to abobbin 12. Avoice coil 13 is wound around oneend portion 12a of thebobbin 12, and a peripheral edge portion of thediaphragm 11 is bonded to one end portion of aframe 14. Amagnetic circuit 15 is comprised of amagnet 16, apole 17 and aplate 18. Themagnetic circuit 15 is secured to the other end of theframe 14, and thevoice coil 13 is coaxially provided in the air gap between thepole 17 and theplate 18. - An electromagnetic braking or
damping system 20 is provided, in which a braking ordamping coil 23 is wound around theother end portion 12b of thebobbin 12 which is extended forwardly of the speaker in its axial direction. A dampingmagnetic circuit 25, which comprises amagnet 26, is provided so as to surround thedamping coil 23. Thisdamping coil 23 is provided in the air gap between apole 27 and aplate 28 of themagnetic circuit 25. In figure 2,reference numeral 24 designates a supporting member. - As shown in figure 3, the
voice coil 13 is connected to a drive amplifier that operates as a constant current source 1. Thedamping coil 23 is connected with asemi-fixed variable resistor 29. In that case, theresistor 29 may be replaced with a proper impedance having a suitable frequency characteristic. - When a drive current i₁₀ is supplied to the
voice coil 13 of thespeaker 10, thediaphragm 11, thebobbin 12 and thevoice coil 13 are bodily vibrated, whereby thecoil 23 provided at theother end portion 12b of thebobbin 12 is vibrated within themagnetic circuit 25. Thus, an electromotive force e occurs in thecoil 23 in proportion to the length of thecoil 23 and the vibrational speed of thecoil 23 and the magnetic flux density in themagnetic circuit 25 according to Fleming's right hand rule, and a current i₂₀ depending on the electromotive force e and a resistance value R₂₉ of theresistor 29 flows through thedamping coil 23. An interaction between this current izo and themagnetic circuit 25 produces a force acting in the opposite direction of the vibrating direction of thebobbin 12. This force is transmitted through thebobbin 12 to thediaphragm 11, so that thediaphragm 11 is properly damped. - The damping current i₂₀ also serves as a detecting current relative to the motion of the vibrating system in the
speaker 10. Accordingly, by feeding this damping current i₂₀ back to the signal source 1 to thereby carry out the motional feedback, the motion of the vibrating system can be controlled so as to provide a predetermined acoustic reproducing characteristic. - A second embodiment of the speaker system according to the present invention will be described with reference to figures 4 and 5.
- The arrangement of the second embodiment of this invention is represented in figures 4 and 5, wherein like parts corresponding to those of figures 2 and 3 are marked with the same references.
- It will be seen in figure 4 that a
stationary coil 22 is opposed to thedamping coil 23 in thedamping system 20A. Thecoil 22 may be wound around the outer periphery of thepole 27 of themagnetic circuit 25 as shown in figure 4. Alternatively, thecoil 22 may be provided in the inner peripheral surface of theplate 28. - In this embodiment, the
damping coil 23 is short circuited as shown in figure 5, and other portions are formed similarly to those of figures 2 and 3. - In accordance with the second embodiment, a damping current i20s of relatively large current value results from dividing the electromotive force e in the
coil 23 by the resistance value r₂₃ of thecoil 23, thereby satisfactorily damping the diaphragm. - Further, the above described motional feedback can be easily carried out by using an electromotive force electromagnetically induced in the
stationary coil 22. - As described above, since the damping coil bodily provided with the vibrating system of the dynamic speaker is provided in the air gap of the damping magnetic circuit which is independent of the magnetic circuit of the speaker and the two ends of the damping coil are terminated by predetermined impedance, it is possible to obtain the speaker system of relatively simple arrangement in which the vibrating system of the speaker driven by a constant current can be properly damped in an electromagnetic fashion.
- A third embodiment of the speaker system according to the present invention will be described with reference to figures 6 and 7. In this embodiment, the arrangement of the speaker system is further simplified, and in figures 6 and 7, like parts corresponding to those of figures 2 and 3 are marked with the same references.
- Referring to figure 6, there is shown a
dynamic speaker 10S, wherein a cone-type diaphragm 11 is bonded at a central portion thereof to aconductive coil bobbin 12S and avoice coil 13 is wound around thebobbin 12S. Thediaphragm 11 is also bonded at a peripheral edge portion thereof to one end portion of theframe 14. Themagnetic circuit 15 is comprised of themagnet 16, thepole 17 and theplate 18 and is secured to the other end portion of theframe 14. Thevoice coil 13 is coaxially provided in the air gap between thepole 17 and theplate 18. - The
bobbin 12S is a copper thin plate shaped, for example, as a cylinder and is served as a short circuit ring from an electrical standpoint. - As shown in figure 7, the
voice coil 13 is connected to the drive amplifier provided as the constant current source 1 via a low-pass filter 2 used to separate the frequency band, whereby thespeaker 10S functions as a woofer. - Further, the cut-off (ie, crossover) frequency of the low-
pass filter 2 is determined, for example, as fco = 1 kHz, and thebobbin 12S is represented as a short circuited coil. - When the drive current i₁₀ is supplied to the
voice coil 13 ofspeaker 10S, thediaphragm 11, thebobbin 12S and thevoice coil 13 are vibrated within themagnetic circuit 15 altogether so that, according to Fleming's right hand rule, the electromotive force e occurs in thebobbin 12S in proportion to the length and the vibrational speed of thebobbin 12S and the magnetic flux density of themagnetic circuit 15, thereby permitting a large current i12s, dependent on the electromotive force e and a resistance value r12s of thebobbin 12S in the circumferential direction thereof, to flow. This current i12s produces a force acting in the opposite direction to the vibrational direction of thebobbin 12S to occur, due to the interaction between it and themagnetic circuit 15. The resultant force is transmitted to thediaphragm 11, sufficiently damping thediaphragm 11 whose vibration amplitude increases in the low band region. - In this embodiment, since the
voice coil 13 is wound around theconductive bobbin 12S and is provided within the commonmagnetic circuit 15, theconductive bobbin 12S and thevoice coil 13 are electromagnetically coupled to each other. - Assuming that the above described coupling is a transformer of which the
voice coil 13 serves as the primary side and thebobbin 12S serves as the secondary side, then its transmission characteristic provides a band-pass type, as shown in a well-known equivalent circuit. Generally, since the inductance of thevoice coil 13 is small, the coupling coefficient between the primary and secondary sides decreases greatly in the low frequency band so that the influence of the coupling between thevoice coil 13 and theconductive bobbin 12S is negligible. - The
speaker 10S is driven by the constant current in the above described embodiments. If thespeaker 10S is driven by a constant voltage, then without being affected by the band-separating network, the vibration system of thespeaker 10S can be damped well electromagnetically, similarly as described above. - As set out above, according to the third embodiment of the present invention, since the bobbin around which the voice coil of the conductive-type speaker is wound is made of the conductive material to form the short-circuited ring and is provided in the air gap of the magnetic circuit while the drive signal is supplied to the voice coil via the low-pass filter, it is possible to obtain the speaker system of very simple arrangement in which the vibration system of the speaker can be damped well electromagnetically.
- It will be appreciated that the invention is not limited to speaker systems with a single drive unit, but is equally applicable to systems with multiple drive units such as woofer/tweeter systems and woofer/mid-range/tweeter systems in which at least one of the loudspeaker drive units in accordance with the invention.
