Definitions

  • This design patent application concerns a method for the production and application of annular suspension edges of loud speaker diaphragms.
  • loud speaker diaphragms is that of a truncated cone with circular or ellipical cross-section: at the centre, the diaphragm is joined to the mobile coil, which is in turn supported, by means of an elastic disk, known as a centring element, to the sheet plate basket also having a truncated cone shape, which houses the diaphragm and to which the magnetic circuit is fixed externally.
  • Said diaphragm is provided on its larger surface with an elastic annular edge by means of which the same is suspended on the mouthpiece flange of the above basket, on which the external lip of said annular edge is glued.
  • annular suspension edges are obtained by cutting away the centre of a soft thin disk (or ellipse in the case of an elliptic loud speaker), moulded in plastic, generally polyurethane resin, and characterised by an annular groove having a semi-circular cross-section on its external circumference.
  • said annular groove is to make the suspension edge elastically deformable; said suspension edge shall support the diaphragm without however preventing it from following the oscillations of the mobile coil to which the diaphragm is attached, as mentioned above.
  • Said annular suspension edge is in fact provided with an external lip which is glued on the mouthpiece flange of the basket, and an internal lip which is glued on the edge of the diaphragm.
  • said suspension edges are first glued on the edge of the diaphragm which therefore is fitted with its annular suspension edge when it reaches the loud speaker assembly station.
  • the first problem is that during production, a quantity of off-cuts is produced whose mass is even greater than the product itself; as mentioned above, the annular suspension edge is obtained by cutting away the centre of a soft thin plastic disk, representing a scrap which is not only a waste of material but also a by no means negligible cost in terms of its disposal.
  • the current state of the art involves high labour costs for the workers who glue the annular suspension edge to the edge of the diaphragm since the gluing operation is not an easy one to automatise due to the difficulty in handling the two elements in question, especially the soft thin annular suspension edge.
  • the method according to the invention is designed to solve these two major problems of the current state of the art; according to said method the annular suspension edge is moulded directly on the edge of the diaphragm, which is preloaded into the edge mould. It is evident that this method on one hand eliminates the production of scraps and on the other eliminates the need for man power for the application of the annular suspension edge to the diaphragm in that during moulding of said edge the same is also automatically and simultaneously glued to the diaphragm.
  • the method according to the invention provides that the annular suspension edge (1) is moulded directly on the edge of the diaphragm (2) which is pre-loaded in the edge (1) mould.
  • the process according to the invention provides the additional advantage of eliminating the costs for the production and assembly of the gasket that is generally applied to the basket flange.
  • gasket (3) may also be moulded during moulding of the annular suspension edge (1); after the diaphragm (2) is mounted on the basket (4), the gasket (3) will be positioned exactly on the flange (4a) of the basket (4).
  • the process according to the invention therefore permits making the gasket (3) of the loud speaker basket (4) during the same moulding phase and in the same material as the suspension edge (1), said gasket consisting of suitably shaped annular ribbing on the external lip (1a) of the edge (1).
  • the diaphragm (2) is pre-loaded into the edge (1) mould so that edge (2a) of diaphragm (2) touches against and is automatically joined to the internal lip (1b) of edge (1).
  • This layer of plastic material (5) - obtained during the same moulding phase and in the same material as edge (1) - has two functions: the first is to make the diaphragm (2) impermeable, the second is to dampen the vibrations so as to act as a regulation element by means of which it is possible to modulate the tone of the diaphragm.
