Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electrodynamic sound transducer.
- US 8,731,231 B2 shows an electrodynamic transducer.
- the dynamic transducer has a chassis, a membrane with two beads, a voice coil and a magnet system.
- the membrane has a hole in the middle.
- a standing wave may arise between the sound-emitting electroacoustic reproduction transducer and a head plane.
- the frequency of this standing wave depends on the distance between the electro-acoustic playback wall and the head level.
- the frequency of the standing wave is typically between 5kHz - 8kHz for circumaural headphones. Since these frequencies are in the audible frequency range, this can lead to a distortion of the audio signal.
- an electrodynamic Schaliwandler having a chassis, a diaphragm having a hole in the center of the diaphragm, a voice coil, a magnet system, and a resonator disposed in the hole in the center of the diaphragm.
- the resonator has a first end with an opening at the ear-side end of the electrodynamic sonic transducer and a second end at an out-facing side of the electrodynamic transducer and a volume between the first and second end up. The second end is designed closed.
- the resonator may be configured as an acoustic absorption circuit or as a Helmholtz resonator.
- the first end with the opening of the resonator is in a plane of the membrane.
- the invention relates to the idea to provide an electrodynamic transducer with a chassis, a membrane with two beads, a voice coil and a magnet system.
- the membrane has no dome, so that a hole in the middle of the membrane is provided.
- a (selective) resonator for example in the form of an acoustic absorption circuit or a Helmhoitz resonator, is provided according to the invention.
- This resonator can be dimensioned such that the resonance frequency coincides with the standing wave.
- this resonator is provided on the Smaschine, where usually a dome is provided.
- the resonator on an ear-facing side has an opening and a volume located behind it. The opening may be provided for example in the membrane plane.
- FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of an electrodynamic sound transducer according to a first exemplary embodiment
- Fig. 2 shows a schematic sectional view of an electrodynamic
- Fig. 3 shows a perspective sectional view of an electrodynamic
- Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of an electrodynamic transducer according to a first embodiment.
- the dynamic sound transducer has a chassis 130, a membrane 110 with two beads 110 a, 110 b, a voice coil 120 and a magnet system 140.
- the membrane 110 has a hole 150 in the middle.
- the membrane 110 has an outer membrane support 111 and an inner membrane support 112 as well as a passage or a hole 150. Between the outer membrane support 111 and the coil seat 122 is a first bead 110a and between the coil seat 122 and the inner membrane pad 112, a second bead 110b is provided.
- FIG. 2 shows a sectional view of a dynamic damper according to a first embodiment.
- the dynamic Schaliwandler has a chassis 130, a membrane 110 with two beads 110 a, 110 b, a Schwingspuie 120 and a magnet system 140.
- the membrane 110 has two beads, but no dome, i. in the middle of the membrane, a hole 150 is provided.
- the membrane system has an outer membrane support 111 and an inner membrane support 112 as well as a passage or a hole 150. Between the outer membrane support 111 and the coil seat 122 is a first bead 110a and between the coil seat 122 and the inner membrane pad 112, a second bead 110b is provided.
- an electrodynamic transducer with two beads 110a, 110b, but without dome provided.
- the two beads 110a, 110b are fastened inside and outside on the chassis 130 of the dynamic transducer.
- a coil 120 for driving the diaphragm 110 is provided on the coil seat 122 between the outer and inner beads 110a, 110b.
- the membrane 110 is optionally made stiff, which can be achieved by a corresponding contour of the membrane 110.
- the membrane 110 may also be optional to the edge regions, i. H. the membrane supports 111, 112, towards softer.
- the dynamic transducer according to a first embodiment has a Ringradiator with a vapor-deposited foil (Duofol) in order to reduce the resonance frequency.
- a broadband converter can be provided, which can be used for example in an open headphone.
- a resonator 200 may be provided with a first end 210 having an opening 211, an opposite second end 230 and a volume 220 therebetween.
- the opening 211 may be made smaller than the hole 150 in the membrane 110.
- the diameter of the opening 211 may be smaller than the diameter of the hole 150.
- the membrane 110 of the dynamic sound transducer can be vapor-deposited. Due to the increased circumference of the diaphragm 110, vibration modes may propagate more poorly. Thus, a uniform amplitude and frequency response can be obtained.
- the chassis 130 may be circular or annular.
- the chassis 130 may include an inner end 132 and an outer end 131, each of which may be circular in shape.
- the inner end 132 surrounds the hole 150 and receives the inner membrane pad 112.
- the outer end 131 receives the outer membrane support 111.
- the diaphragm 110 is thus secured to the inner and outer ends 132, 131 of the chassis 130.
- the resonator 200 is provided in the middle, i. inside the inner end 132 and the hole 150.
- the dynamic damper converter has a chassis 130, a diaphragm 110 with two beads 110a, 110b, a voice coil 120, a magnet system 140 and a hole 150 in the diaphragm, on which a dome is usually provided.
- the membrane 110 according to the second embodiment is thus configured as a calotte-free membrane.
- a resonator 200 is provided in the area of the hole 150 (and inside the inner end 132).
- the resonator 200 has a first end 210 with an opening 211, a second end 230 and a volume 220.
- the first end 210 is provided at an ear-side end of the electrodynamic transducer and has an opening 211.
- the second end 230 is designed to be closed.
- the opening 211 may be made smaller than the hole 150.
- the resonator 200 according to the invention may be configured as an acoustic absorption circuit or as a Helmholtz resonator.
- the opening 210 of the resonator 200 is located according to the invention in the transducer axis and is disposed on the ear-facing side of the transducer.
- the first end 210 is provided with the opening 211 in the membrane plane, Between the first and second ends 210, 230, a volume 220 is formed, which is opened only through the opening 211.
- a sound velocity maximum is created at the opening 211, by means of which energy is extracted from the sound field which is generated by the electrodynamic sound transducer.
- FIG. 4 shows a first frequency response A of a converter without the resonator and a second frequency response B for an electrodynamic sound transducer with a resonator according to the invention. Furthermore, a frequency response of the difference between the first and second frequency response A, B is shown in FIG. Thus, in the lower diagram, in particular, the effect of the resonator can be seen well.
- acoustic resistance may be provided in or at the opening 211 of the resonator 200 for control.
- the chassis has an inner circular end and an outer circular end to which the diaphragm is attached.
- An (acoustic) resonator influences the sound at a certain frequency or a certain frequency range.
- the resonator may comprise a capacitive acoustic element and an inductive acoustic element,
- the resonator may be configured as a cavity resonator with a single port volume to the ear canal.
- a vibratable membrane may be provided in or at the opening 211 of the resonator.
- the damper converter has a ring radiator.
- the ring radiator includes the chassis 130 having an inner open circular end 132 and an outer circular end 131, and a vibratable diaphragm 110 having a hole 150 in the center, inner and outer beads 110b, 110a, and a coil seat 122.
- the diaphragm 110 is held or fixed to the inner and outer ends 132, 131 of the chassis.
- a resonator 200 is provided within the inner open circular end 132 of the chassis 130 and within the hole 150.
- the resonator can work as an absorber.
- a resonator according to the invention is an oscillatory system whose components are tuned to a particular frequency (natural frequency) or frequency range such that the resonator will oscillate when excited at that frequency or frequency range.
- the acoustic resonator according to the invention has a closed or partially open air volume. The elasticity of the air in a cavity leads, together with the inertia of the air, to certain resonance frequencies.
- the Helmholtz resonator is a partially open cavity resonator.
- the invention also relates to a microphone or a handset with a sound transducer described above.
