[0003] Since a speaker unit for a television is usually mounted on both sides of a cathode ray tube, it contributes to increase the width of the television set. For this reason, a narrow speaker unit such as a square or an ellipse has conventionally been used for a television. As the cathode ray tube becomes longer, the width of the speaker unit must be further reduced.
At the same time, there is a demand for higher sound quality of audio corresponding to higher image quality of the screen.

When the aspect ratio of the diaphragm is increased, the length of the parallel straight line portion of the voice coil becomes longer. In this case, at some specific frequencies (resonance frequencies), the linear portion of the voice coil bobbin resonates, and the direction perpendicular to the vibration direction of the diaphragm (the magnetic circuit that drives the voice coil bobbin,
(The direction of the magnetic flux in the magnetic gap). The resonance frequency decreases as the length of the linear portion increases, and the amplitude of resonance increases as the resonance frequency decreases. Therefore, the resonance amplitude of the voice coil bobbin increases as the aspect ratio of the diaphragm increases. As the input applied to the speaker increases, the resonance amplitude also increases, and the voice coil may come into contact with the magnetic circuit.

FIGS. 2A and 2B are a plan view and a front view showing the structure of the diaphragm 1 and the thin plate-like reinforcing member 14, respectively. Five thin plate reinforcing members 14 arranged in the minor diameter direction are joined on the inner surface of the diaphragm 1. The intervals at which the thin plate-shaped reinforcing members 14 are attached are arranged at unequal intervals in the major axis direction of the diaphragm 1. In FIG. 2A, L1 ≠ L2. Further, as shown in FIG. 2C, the speaker may be configured by connecting the thin plate-shaped reinforcing member 14 and the thin plate-shaped connecting member 12.

The operation of the thus constructed speaker will be described. When the driving frequency of the diaphragm increases, split resonance occurs in the short diameter direction or in a small area portion divided by the thin plate-shaped reinforcing member 14, and the frequency characteristics are disturbed. If the diaphragms divided by the thin plate-shaped reinforcing member 14 have the same small area, the resonance frequencies are equal, and the disturbance of the sound pressure frequency characteristics due to resonance is amplified.

However, in the present embodiment, the resonance frequency in each small area can be changed by making the length of the small area different. For this reason, the disturbance of the sound pressure frequency due to the split resonance can be configured such that when a certain portion has a peak, a dip or flat characteristic can be obtained in another portion. Therefore, the influence of the split resonance is dispersed, and the disturbance of the sound pressure frequency characteristics can be reduced.

The gap 7 has a shape of a circle. On the plate 10, an auxiliary magnet 15 magnetized in the opposite polarity to the magnet 9 and the vibration direction of the diaphragm is fixed.

FIGS. 6A and 6B show the results of calculating the magnetic leakage distribution with and without the auxiliary magnet 15. FIG. FIG. 6A shows a case where the auxiliary magnet 15 is not provided, and FIG. 6B shows a case where the auxiliary magnet 15 is attached. The gap length of the magnetic gap 7 is 2 m
6A, the thickness of the plate 10, the thickness of the yoke 8 was 4 mm, and the size of the ferrite magnet was 10 mm in height and 20 mm in width. The magnetic flux density in FIG. 6A was 4546 (gauss). On the other hand, in FIG. 6B in which an auxiliary magnet having a height of 5 mm and a width of 15 mm was attached, the value was 5112 (gauss). The magnetic air gap 7
Are omitted because the magnetic flux density in the air gap is high and cannot be displayed at the same level. In a rectangular parallelepiped magnet used for a speaker having a narrow width (elongation) structure, the magnetic flux easily leaks into the air because the distance between the plate and the yoke in the short diameter direction is close. As is clear from the comparison between the two figures, the auxiliary magnet 15 reduces the leakage flux in the air,
It can be seen that the magnetic flux passes through the magnetic gap 7.
Thus, by employing the magnetic circuit configuration of the second embodiment, the driving force of the diaphragm can be further increased, and reproduction can be performed efficiently.

A thin plate-like connecting member 12 is attached to the inner surface of the diaphragm so as to extend between the surfaces facing each other in the minor diameter direction of the diaphragm in parallel with the vibration direction of the diaphragm and at right angles to the facing surface. A damper 13 is fixed to a lower end of the connecting member 12.

FIG. 8 is a force-displacement curve of a roll-shaped object having an arc-shaped cross section. The direction of deformation in the direction of the concave portion of the arc is defined as a minus direction, and the opposite direction is defined as a plus direction.
As this characteristic indicates, when a roll-shaped object having an arc-shaped cross section deforms vertically, the force-displacement curve becomes asymmetric. That is, when displacing the edge and the damper having a roll having an arcuate cross section, the required force is different between the case of moving up and the case of moving down. This non-linearity is large in the case of a large amplitude and causes distortion. However, in this embodiment, since the edges and the rolls of the damper are arranged so as to face each other, the asymmetry caused by the shape can be canceled. For this reason, the linearity of the vibration characteristics is improved, and characteristics with less distortion can be realized.

Inside the voice coil bobbin 4 attached to the diaphragm 1, a thin plate-like connecting member 19 having an extended length is provided.
Is fixed to the frame 3 via the damper 18. FIG. 10 is a perspective view of a damper 18 used in the fourth embodiment of the present invention. In the center of the damper 18, a groove 20 having a concave cross section is formed along the length direction of the roll. FIG. 11 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing the state of adhesion between the damper 18 and the thin plate-like connecting member 19 whose length is extended. A thin plate-like connecting member 19 whose length is extended is inserted into the groove 20 having a concave cross section with an adhesive 21 while being sandwiched therebetween, and is fixed to the frame 3. Since the damper 18 has a shorter bonding margin with the frame than the edge 2, stress due to vibration is concentrated. Although the adhesive portion between the damper 18 and the thin plate-like connecting member 19 is concentrated similarly to the adhesive portion with the frame 3, the adhesive is easily separated, but the provision of the groove 20 increases the adhesive area. Also, a sufficient amount of the adhesive 21 can be placed in the groove 20. For this reason, the adhesive force between the damper 18 and the thin plate-like connecting member 19 is significantly improved. Therefore, poor adhesion is less likely to occur during long-term use, and a failure of the speaker due to the separation of the damper 18 and the thin plate-like connecting member 19 can be prevented.

A groove 20 having a concave cross section is arranged at the center of the roll 23 arranged in the minor diameter direction of the diaphragm, and the thin plate-like connecting member 19 is sandwiched and bonded here.

The operation of the damper 22 thus configured will be described. Two sets of rolls 2 constituting a damper
Since the sections 3 and 24 are arc-shaped, they can easily move up and down. However, the roll does not easily deform in the length direction of the roll because the roll must be compressed in the length direction. Roll 23 length 20 mm, 24 length 5
mm and the radius of the cross section of the roll is 3 mm, and the displacement of the damper 22 using a synthetic fiber material having a material thickness of 0.3 mm is calculated. Fz = 1 (N) in the vertical direction of the roll
In the roll 24 direction,
At x = 1 (N), the displacement was 0.001 mm. Therefore, the damper 22 of the present embodiment is easily displaced in the upper and lower speaker vibration directions, but is hardly displaced in other directions.

In an elongated speaker, when a load or driving force is imbalanced, the moment in the major axis direction is increased due to the large aspect ratio of the diaphragm, and rolling is likely to occur in this direction. When the speaker rolls in the major axis direction, a rotational force acts in the major axis direction of the diaphragm.
This force acts to bend the thin plate-shaped connecting member 14 in the thickness direction. Then, an attempt is made to displace the damper 22 in the major axis direction (Fx in FIG. 12A). However, since the roll 24 is arranged in the major axis direction of the damper 22,
It acts in a direction to prevent the rolling force. As described above, in the loudspeaker of this embodiment, since the rolls are arranged so as to be orthogonal to the short diameter direction and the long diameter direction of the diaphragm, the loudspeaker is resistant to abnormal vibration such as rolling caused by imbalance of load or driving force.

The operation of the sixth and seventh embodiments will be described below. In a speaker having an elongated diaphragm, a large moment in the major axis direction is large, and when the load or the driving force is unbalanced, abnormal vibration is likely to occur in the major axis direction. The vibration in the long diameter direction acts as a bending moment in the thickness direction of the thin plate-shaped connecting member. However, in the loudspeakers of the sixth and seventh embodiments, the bending rigidity in the thickness direction of the thin plate-like connecting member can be increased by using a reinforcing rib or a sandwich structure. For this reason, it becomes strong against abnormal vibration such as rolling caused by imbalance of load and driving force.

The operation of the thus arranged speaker will be described. When the aspect ratio of the diaphragm is increased, a parallel straight line portion of the voice coil becomes longer. In this case, the linear portion of the voice coil bobbin resonates at some specific frequencies (resonant frequencies), and a direction perpendicular to the direction of vibration of the diaphragm (the magnetic circuit that drives the voice coil bobbin, the magnetic flux in the magnetic gap). Direction). As the linear portion becomes longer, the resonance frequency becomes lower, and the amplitude of the resonance also increases. The voice coil bobbin whose flat portions are connected by the thin plate-shaped connecting member 14 has a latticed structure, so that the strength is improved. Further, in the voice coil of the present embodiment, since the thin plate-like connecting member 12 is arranged not only in the vicinity of the center but also in the connecting portion between the straight line and the arc, the strength is further increased as compared with the case of only the arc. Moreover, in addition to the shape effect of increasing the number of lattices having a lattice structure, the length of the flat portion of the voice coil is also reduced, so that the amplitude at the time of resonance can be reduced.
