  The speaker shown in FIG. 5 uses the suspension holder 6A that firmly supports the diaphragm 3A. Therefore, the weight increases, and it is not a problem for low-frequency sounds that add a large output. For use, there is a problem that driving efficiency is lowered due to weight.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to further increase the driving efficiency in a low distortion speaker.

In order to achieve this object, the present invention comprises a frame, a magnetic circuit supported by the frame, a voice coil body movably arranged with respect to a magnetic gap provided in the magnetic circuit, An end is connected to the frame via a first edge, an inner peripheral end is connected to the voice coil body, and the diaphragm is provided closer to the magnetic circuit, and an inner peripheral end is A damper connected to the voice coil body, and an outer peripheral end of the damper is connected to the frame via a second edge, and the second edge is on the diaphragm side or vice versa. And the damper has a first projecting portion projecting toward the diaphragm side and a second projecting portion projecting in the opposite direction to the first projecting portion, These first and second Of the projecting portions, the projecting portion closest to the second edge, said a second projecting direction of the edge is protruded to the opposite side, and the protruding portion that is closest to the second edge, the other projecting portion This is a larger structure.

  With this configuration, distortion of the speaker can be suppressed, and driving efficiency can be improved by reducing the weight.

  Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view showing a speaker of the present invention. A magnetic circuit 1 arranged at the center of the bottom of a mortar-shaped frame 5 is a combination of a disk-shaped magnet 1a, a disk-shaped plate 1b, and a cylindrical yoke 1c. A cylindrical magnetic gap 8 opened toward the upper surface side of the magnetic circuit 1 is formed between the inner peripheral side surface of the side wall portion of the yoke 1c and the outer peripheral side surface of the plate 1b.

  The voice coil body 2 has a structure in which the coil 2b is wound around the outer peripheral portion of the cylindrical main body 2a, and is arranged so as to be movable in the vertical direction with respect to the magnetic gap 8, whereby the voice coil body 2 The thin plate-like diaphragm 3 connected to the upper outer peripheral portion is vibrated. A dust cap 9 is provided at the upper end portion of the voice coil body 2 as a dust-proof measure.

  The diaphragm 3 is a part that becomes a sound source of the speaker, and is mainly made of pulp and resin having both high rigidity and internal loss, and the frame 5 through an edge 4 whose outer peripheral end protrudes upward. The inner peripheral end portion is fixed to the outer peripheral side of the main body 2 a of the voice coil body 2. The edge 4 is formed of a material such as urethane, foam rubber, SBR rubber or cloth so as not to apply a movable load to the diaphragm 3.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the damper 10 has an inner peripheral end portion connected to the magnetic circuit 1 side of the diaphragm 3 fixing portion on the outer peripheral side of the body 2 a of the voice coil body 2, and an outer peripheral end portion of the damper 10. And is connected to the frame 5 via a separate edge 11. The damper 10 has a corrugated ring structure, and is configured to expand and contract in response to the movement of the voice coil body 2, and to the diaphragm 3 in the same manner as the edge 4 provided on the diaphragm 3. It is made of a material such as urethane, foam rubber, SBR rubber or cloth so as not to apply a movable load.

  Then, by applying an audio signal to the coil 2b of the voice coil body 2, the voice coil body 2 reacts with the magnetic field of the magnetic gap 8 and moves up and down. By this movement, the diaphragm 3 vibrates and a sound is emitted from the speaker. In particular, since the edge 11 is provided at the outer peripheral end portion of the damper 10, distortion of the speaker is suppressed, and the driving efficiency of the speaker is further enhanced.

  Conventionally, the damper 10 is conventionally connected to the frame 5 and the voice coil body 2 at both outer ends thereof to suppress rolling when the voice coil body 2 is movable. In order to make it easy to follow the movement of the ring, it is made into a ring-like corrugated plate to give elasticity.

  Since the ring-like corrugated plate is used, when the amplitude of the voice coil body 2 is small, the damper 10 is less likely to be a large load for moving the voice coil body 2. As the amount of amplitude increases, the load increases.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, the outer periphery of the damper 10 is connected to the frame 5 via the edge 11, and in this way, the movable width of the voice coil body 2 is increased, and the damper 10 becomes a load. When the edge 11 arrives, stress is applied to the edge 11, and the edge 11 is elastically deformed in response to the stress.

  For this reason, even when the amount of amplitude of the voice coil body 2 becomes large in this way, the amplitude is not easily inhibited by the damper 10, and a decrease in drive efficiency is suppressed.

  In the present embodiment, the voice coil body 2 is supported in the vertical direction by two supports, that is, the edge 4 and the combined body of the damper 10 and the edge 11, but in order to increase the driving efficiency of the diaphragm 3 The edge 4 is thinned to lighten its weight, thereby reducing the weight of the diaphragm 3 and the edge 4 and increasing the driving efficiency of the diaphragm 3.

  However, if the edge 4 is made thinner, the support strength of the voice coil body 2 is lowered. Therefore, the edge 11 is made thicker than the edge 4, thereby preventing the support strength of the voice coil body 2 from being lowered. (As a result, the elastic modulus of the combined body formed by the damper 10 and the edge 11 is larger (harder) than that of the edge 4).

  With the above configuration, the support of the voice coil body 2 is dominated by the combination of the damper 10 and the edge 11, and therefore, in order to suppress the distortion of the vertical movement of the diaphragm 3, It is necessary to make the upper and lower loads of the combined body of the edges 11 as similar as possible.

  First, the shape of the edge 11 in the embodiment shown in FIG.

  The edge 11 in the embodiment shown in FIG. 2 has a shape protruding in the opposite direction to the diaphragm 3, so that it is easily deformed downward in FIG. 2, and conversely upward, that is, in the direction of the diaphragm 3. Is difficult to deform.

  Therefore, in order to absorb the difference in ease of deformation of the edge 11 in the vertical direction, the shape of the damper 10 is devised.

  As is well known, the damper 10 has a ring-shaped corrugated plate-like structure. The first protrusion 10a protrudes toward the diaphragm 3, and the direction opposite to the first protrusion 10a. A plurality of second projecting portions 10b projecting from each other. Of these first and second projecting portions 10a and 10b, the projecting portion 10a closest to the edge 11 is the edge. 11 is protruded on the opposite side to the protruding direction, that is, on the diaphragm 3 side.

  For this reason, the outermost first protrusion 10a is easily deformed upward, and the vibration 3 is easily deformed downward in FIG. As a result, the vertical load of the combined body of the damper 10 and the edge 11 can be made to be in the same state as much as possible, which makes it difficult to make a difference in the vertical movement of the diaphragm 3 and causes vibration distortion. It can be suppressed.

  As is well known, the damper 10 has a ring-shaped corrugated plate-like structure. The first protrusion 10a protrudes toward the diaphragm 3, and the direction opposite to the first protrusion 10a. A plurality of second projecting portions 10b projecting from each other. Of these first and second projecting portions 10a and 10b, the projecting portion 10a closest to the edge 11 is the edge. 11 is protruded on the opposite side to the protruding direction, that is, on the diaphragm 3 side.

  As a result of the above, the vertical amplitude of the diaphragm 3 is substantially symmetrical in the vertical direction, so that distortion in the speaker can be reduced and the edge 4 is reduced in weight. Become. The outermost first projecting portion 10a has a larger projecting shape than the first and second projecting portions 10a and 10b on the inner peripheral side, and the edge 11 is the first projecting portion on the outermost periphery. This is because the size is larger than the protruding portion 10a, so that the size can be reduced as much as possible.

  In the configuration in which the damper 10 is connected to the frame 5 via the edge 11 as described above, the corrugated plate-like damper 10 is used until the movable width of the voice coil body 2 is increased to some extent as described above. Since the linearity of the power linearity can be ensured, and when the movable width of the voice coil body 2 exceeds a predetermined value and the linearity becomes difficult to ensure, the elasticity of the edge 11 compensates for the linearity. The elastic modulus is desirably set larger (harder) than the elastic modulus of the damper 10.

  Further, it is desirable that the damper 10 and the edge 11 have different elastic moduli, and it is desirable to set both of them to function independently according to the movable width of the voice coil body 2, and between the damper 10 and the edge 11, More specifically, in the region where the damper 10 and the edge 11 are connected, the elasticity of the region is set larger (harder) than the modulus of elasticity of the damper 10 and the edge 11, thereby ensuring the independence of both.

  In setting the elastic modulus of the connection region between the damper 10 and the edge 11 to be larger (harder) than the elastic modulus of the damper 10 and the edge 11, for example, the type of adhesive that bonds the edge 11 and the damper 10 is acrylic. The edge 11 and the damper 10 are integrated by an insert mold to increase the thickness of the portion, or a reinforcing material is attached to the connection region.

  3 and 4 show another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the shape of the edge 11 is changed to a shape protruding upward as compared with the embodiment of FIGS.

  In accordance with this, the outermost projecting portion 10b coupled to the edge 11 is projected downward. Of course, the outermost projecting portion 10b has a larger projecting shape than the first and second projecting portions 10a, 10b on the inner peripheral side, and the edge 11 has the outermost first projecting portion. This is because the size is larger than 10a so that the size can be reduced as much as possible.

  INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention can reduce speaker distortion and drive efficiency in a speaker, and is particularly useful for a mid-high frequency speaker.
