Description
SPECIFICATION
Structural material for acoustic machines and instruments
This invention relates to an improvement in or relating to a structural material fo acoustic machines and instruments.
As the materials for turntable, turntable sheet, stabilizer, speaker enclosure, floor system enclosure, head shell and tone arm of acoustic machines and instruments, particularly of record player there were hitherto employed mainly metals such as aluminium die casting and press worked steel plate and wood in view of easy workability, rigidity and appearance to some extent, and moderate cost, in the hope that (1) said materials may have a great equivalent mass and a high rigidity so as to hardly vibrate, and that (2) they may have a great damping ratio to vibration thereby attenuating vibration quickly, said two features (1) and (2) being of properties of making acoustic effects good.
Among said products, however, the metallic ones have a very small damping ratio to vibration but a high resonance sharpness fh so that they have demerits in likelihood of resonance to specific frequency. They are liable to receive the vibration of motor, the outside vibration transmitted through player board and the vibration of speaker so as to deteriorate the signal-to-noise ratio, thereby causing sometimes howling. Wooden speaker enclosure is resonant even with specific resonance. To prevent this unfavorable effect there has ben provided means that the upper or lower face of a turntable is coated or adhered with a substance having a great damping ratio of vibration, such as resin or rubber, or it is stuck together with composite plastics.However, in the former case it is impossible to completely control the properties innate to the metallic body because the resin or rubber is a complement to the metallic body. To answer the purpose, therefore, the resin or rubber must be greater in mass than the metallic body whereby the rigidity of metal can no longer be effectively used. In the latter case the main skeleton is of plastics so that it lacks in rigidity and the turntable causes damping action to swing the disc up and down, while causing a fear of troubling the tracing operation of stylus chip. Further being light in weight with regard to plastics, its mass is small when the content of filler is less to lack in the inertia mass of said turntable thereby causing wow and flutter as in a turntable of metal plate. Furthermore, wooden articles have a great damping ratio but they come short of rigidity.
The object of the invention is to provide materials for acoustic machines and instruments of the kind described at the beginning of the specification, said machines and instruments excluding the conventional demerits and having good performance.
The turntable according to the invention consists of a sintered ceramic body wherein porosity is more than 20% and the diameter of the
pores is less than 300 microns on an average, or a body wherein at least part of the pores of said sintered body is impregnated with elastic
materials such as rubber and/or resin; or of a
moulding wherein ceramic powder is bonded with
resins and/or rubber and then the bonded powder
is moulded, or a moulding wherein at least part
thereof is impregnated with elastic materials such
as rubber and/or resin. The great rigidity and mass
possessed by ceramic may serve formless sensitivity against vibration of the turntable and for quickly. attenuating the vibration thanks to the
pores of ceramic. In the ceramic fit for the material of the acoustic machines and instruments according to the invention, the greater in rigidity the better.However, the allowable lower limit of the rigidity will be a Knoop harness of more than 5000 to fall under a range in which the strain by vibration does not badly affects the sound effects.
This means that materials harder than ceramic or glass can be used. Further, preferably the ratio of the pores which attenuate the damping ratio of vibration as quickly as possible is more than 20% porosity, and the porosity of less than 20% will have less effect because it cannot sufficiently form pores included between crystal particles of ceramic in order to promptly decrease the vibration added to the ceramic body. Accordingly, the less in the size of pores the wider they disperse so that the pores can be included more
between the crystals and particles of ceramic to
increase the attenuating properties of inside vibration, but ceramic having an average pore
diameter of less than 300 microns can satisfy these requirements.
Further, it is effective for increasing the damping ratio of vibration to impregnate the
interior or the pores of ceramic having said pores with elastic substances such as rubber and/or resin in place of air. That is, the rubber or resin is active for enclosing the vibration which was subject to the crystals or particles of ceramic to be a rigid body, into the crystals or particles, thereby attenuating the vibration. The impregnation may not necessarily be carried out over the entire pores, and it may be restricted to the upper face lower face and middle portion of the material to be treated or non-uniformly dispersed in its entirety.
Advantageously, the turntable which is impregnated with rubber or resin at its upper face will not require a turntable sheet made of rubber.
As the ceramic used for the turntable of the invention there can also be employed, besides said sintered body, a moulding in which ceramic particles are moulded with binding agent such as resin, rubber or the like and then solidified. In this case, however, the whole moulding might lose rigidity if elastic layers of the binder are produced among the ceramic particles, so that the binder should be used as little as possible and practically the binder within 3% will be suitable.
Even in this case, the pores should be more than 20% in porosity and less than 300 microns in diameter as in said sintered ceramic. It is likewise possible to impregnate the pores with said elastic substance.
The invention will now be described more in detail, by way of examples, with reference to a turntable.
(1) SINTERED ARTICLES
Ceramic material is added with kaolin of more than 10% and then wet mixed with a small amount of combustible material and water. The mixture is moulded by pressing such as under hydraulic pressure, air pressure, oil pressure or friction, and after drying it is sintesed in a sintering furnace. After cooling the sintered article, its surface is faced thereby grinding and processing it to a desired extent of preciseness of dimension and shape. The mixed combustible materials are effective for forming pores, and there are used wax, fine powder of wood, starch, wheat powder and the like.
Impregnation of the elastic substances may be carried out in a liquid state of said substances, such as latex of natural or artificial rubber besides a carbon dioxide solution of rubber, and alcohol solution of resin or the like, by either coating it onto the surface of turntable or dipping the turntable in it thereafter drying.
Mixing examples and the properties of the sintered pieces of ceramic produced with said mixing are now described hereunder.
(a) Alumina (250,u) 87%
Kaolin 13% Porosity 32%
Average pore diameter 150 y Bulk specific gravity 2.47
Hardness 22000 Knoop (b) Silicon carbide (125pal) 85%
Kaolin 1 5% Porosity 31% Average pore diameter 45,u Bulk specific gravity 2.04
Hardness 24000 Knoop (2) MOULDINGS
Ceramic powder is added with thermosetting resin such as phenol resin as a binder, and further with an oil wetting agent such as kerosene in case the binder is powdery. The mixture is kneaded and then compressed and moulded by means of pressing. The moulding is solidified in a soliditying chamber at a temperature in the range 1 50#1800 C, and after cooling, its surface is faced.The mixing examples are as follows:
(a) Alumina { 250y \ 97.8% 22000 Knoop Phenol resin powder 2.0%
Kerosene (vanished
when heated) 0.2%
Porosity 35%
Average pore diameter 150,u Bulk specific gravity 2.25 (b) Silicon carbidetl25y 97.2% 24000 Phenol resin powder 2.5%
Kerosene 0.3%
Porosity 33%.
Average pore diameter 45y Bulk specific gravity 2.01
As a mode of working of the invention, a test listening was carried out by acoustic specialists by using a disc turntable in which a turntable sheet made of baked ceramic impregnated with silicon rubber was adhered onto a conventional turntable made of aluminium die casting, with an adhesive or the like. As a result, it was proved that compared with conventional aluminium die casting disc turntable with rubber sheet, there was scarcely resonance caused by mechanical vibration, sound effects of high damping effect were exerted, and acoustic properties thanks to the rigidity and porosity of ceramic are very prominent, said properties being a technical idea of the invention.
