Description

Ultra-thin coil plate for buzzer and speaker}

The present invention relates to an ultra-thin coil plate for a communication buzzer and a speaker of a small communication device that vibrates a diaphragm in accordance with the supplied current, and more particularly, a communication buzzer that shortens the assembly time of the communication buzzer and the speaker and enables a compact slimming. And an ultra-thin coil plate for a speaker.

As is well known, a small communication device such as a portable telephone or a pager is provided with a communication buzzer for notifying an incoming call and a small speaker that separates a voice signal from a received radio wave and reproduces it as sound waves. As the communication buzzer and the speaker become smaller in size, the size and thickness of the communication buzzer and the speaker become thinner and thinner.

1 is a diagram illustrating a communication buzzer, and looks at the configuration of the communication buzzer and the speaker through this. Here, since the communication buzzer and the speaker have the same configuration, the communication buzzer will be described as an example. First, the communication buzzer includes a printed circuit board (1), and a bottom plate (2) is disposed on an upper surface of the printed circuit board (1). In the center of the bottom plate 2, the shaft 3 is formed to protrude upward, and the electromagnetic actuating means 5 is installed around the shaft 3 protruding upward. The electromagnetic actuating means 5 magnetizes the shaft 3 as an electric current is applied, for example, uses an electric conductor wound on the shaft 3. Both ends of the electric lead are connected to the + and-terminals of the printed circuit board 1 (not shown) by soldering or the like, respectively.

In addition, an upper surface of the bottom plate 2, that is, the periphery of the electromagnetic actuating means 5, is provided with an annular magnet body 6 at regular intervals from the electromagnetic actuating means 5, and the edge of the bottom plate 2. The diaphragm support ring 7 surrounding the magnet body 6 is provided on the circumference. In addition, a stepped portion 7a is formed on the inner circumferential surface of the diaphragm support ring 7, and the diaphragm 8 is seated on the stepped portion 7a. The outer surface of the diaphragm support ring 7 is covered with an outer case 9, and the outer case 9 and the printed circuit board 1 are sealed with the filler 9a to form a communication buzzer.

The communication buzzer having such a configuration generates a vibration sound according to the vibration of the diaphragm 8, the principle of which is as follows. First, the magnetic field generated by the magnet body 6 is absorbed by the bottom plate 2, which is a metal material, and transferred to the shaft 3, and the shaft 3, which is made magnetic by the bottom plate 2, is provided with the diaphragm 8. Pull it so that it is always bent downwards. When a current is applied to the terminal in this state, the shaft 3 is soon magnetized by the electromagnetic actuating means 5, and the magnetized shaft 3 pulls the diaphragm 8 further downward. When the current applied to the terminal of the printed circuit board 1 is blocked, the diaphragm 8 bent downward returns to its original position. As described above, by repeatedly applying or interrupting the current to the terminal, the vibration plate 8 is bent downward or returns to its original position, and a predetermined vibration is generated, thereby generating a vibration sound.

However, such a conventional communication buzzer has a limitation in miniaturizing and slimming the communication buzzer due to the shaft 3 for vibrating the diaphragm 8 and the electromagnetic actuating means 5 installed around the shaft 3. In the process of installing the electromagnetic actuating means (5) around (3), assembly time was delayed, causing various problems such as lowering the production efficiency.

That is, the conventional communication buzzer must include the shaft 3 and the electromagnetic actuating means 5 for magnetizing it in order to vibrate the diaphragm 8, the shaft 3 extending toward the diaphragm 8 and the shaft. Due to the space occupied by the electromagnetic actuating means 5 wound up in (3), there has been a limit in miniaturizing and slimming the communication buzzer.

In addition, in order to install the electric conductor which is the electromagnetic actuating means 5 on the shaft 3, the both ends of the printed circuit board 1 and the + terminal and-terminal of the electric circuit are wound again several times. There was a disadvantage in that assembly was cumbersome, such as having to solder on. In particular, the assembly was very difficult, such as the need to use a magnifying glass to connect both ends of the very thin electrical wire to the + and-terminals of the printed circuit board (1). These factors are the main reasons for delaying assembly time, lowering production efficiency and increasing manufacturing costs.

Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the conventional problems as described above, the object is to form a shaft for vibrating the diaphragm and the ultra-thin coil plate that can replace and replace the electromagnetic actuating means wound thereon, An ultra-thin coil plate for a communication buzzer and a speaker can be made slimmer.

Another object of the present invention is to provide an ultra-thin coil plate for a communication buzzer and a speaker that can reduce assembly time and improve productivity by providing an ultra-thin coil plate that can be mass-produced in an easier manner.

Features of the present invention for achieving this object, the substrate; And a terminal connected to both ends of the spiral flat coil formed on one side of the substrate and the spiral flat coil.

Another feature of the present invention, the substrate; It includes a spiral plane coils symmetrically formed on both sides of the substrate and terminals connected to both ends of the spiral plane coils.

Hereinafter, a preferred embodiment of an ultra-thin coil plate for a communication buzzer and a speaker according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

First, as shown in FIG. 2, the ultra-thin coil plate 10 (hereinafter, abbreviated as 'ultra thin coil plate') for the communication buzzer and the speaker of the present invention has a substrate 20, and both sides of the substrate 20 It can be seen that the spiral inductor, that is, the spiral flat coil 30 is disposed on the surface.

Looking at this in detail, the ultra-thin coil plate of the present invention has a substrate (20). This board | substrate 20 is a substantially rectangular thin plate, and consists of an epoxy resin or synthetic resin material which is an insulator.

In addition, spiral flat coils 30 are disposed on both sides of the substrate 20, and terminals 40 connected to both ends of the flat coil 30 are formed. The planar coil 30 generates magnetic force by a current supplied through the terminal 40. As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the planar coil 30 spirally overlaps from the center of the substrate 20 to the outside. It is wound up and placed. Here, the planar coil 30 should be configured to have as many winding times by forming as thin and long as possible. This is because the magnitude of the magnetic force increases in proportion to the number of windings, the planar coil 30 is configured to have as many windings as possible by forming a thin and long, to obtain a stronger magnetic force.

In addition, the spiral flat coils 30 disposed on both sides of the substrate 20 are configured to be connected by one coil, which has a stronger magnetic force than the flat coils 30 having the two flat coils 30 connected to each other. This is because, first and foremost, by connecting the flat coils 30 disposed on both sides to one, the terminals 40 formed on both ends of the flat coil 30 and the substrate 20 are more easily connected. To this end, the planar coils 30 disposed on both sides of the substrate 20 are configured such that their central portions are connected to each other as shown in FIG. 5, and both ends thereof have respective terminals as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. And connected in connection with 40. Here, both ends of the spiral flat coil 30 is configured to be connected to each of the two terminals 40, which can be selectively used according to the installation position of the + terminal and-terminal of the printed circuit board assembled to the communication buzzer. To make it work.

On the other hand, the spiral planar coil 30 and each terminal 40 of such a configuration is formed on the substrate 20 through a variety of processes, in particular formed on the substrate 20 by photomasking (Photomasking) do.

The process of forming the planar coil 30 on the substrate 20 by these processes will now be described with reference to FIGS. 6 and 7. First, a wide substrate 50 of epoxy resin or synthetic resin constituting the substrate 20 of the ultra-thin coil plate is provided, and an insulating material is applied to the substrate 50 (S101) and heat treated (S102). Applying an insulating material on the substrate 50 (S101) and heat treatment (S102) completely insulates both surfaces of the substrate 50 and removes foreign substances adhering to the outer surface of the substrate 50. 50) to even the surface. On the other hand, as the insulating material is usually used varnish or synthetic paints. Here, the insulating material is applied (S101) and the heat treatment step (S102) it is preferable to work in a vacuumed state so as to minimize the thermal deformation of the substrate 50 and the insulating material to prevent foreign substances from entering.

Meanwhile, a plurality of holes 52 are punctured at predetermined intervals in the substrate 50 where the heat treatment is completed (S103). The hole 52 is configured to form the center of each ultra-thin coil plate 10, that is, the center of the substrate 20 as shown in FIG. 2, and is also the center point of the spiral flat coil 30. In addition, the number of the holes 52 is also the number of the ultra-thin coil plate 10 manufactured in one substrate 50.

In addition, a conductive material, for example, copper 54, is coated on the surface of the substrate 50 having completed the perforation (S104). Copper 54 is coated around the substrate 50 to a thickness of approximately 12 μm to 24 μm, and is coated by a method by vacuum evaporation. For reference, the vacuum evaporation method is a method of coating a workpiece with a gasified substance in a vacuum, and has an advantage of obtaining a thin film having a uniform thickness. Of course, it is also possible to coat | cover copper to the board | substrate 50 using the ion plating method, sputtering method, or the electroless plating method. The descriptions of the vacuum deposition method, the ion plating method, the sputtering method and the electroless plating are well known and thus will be omitted. Meanwhile, in the process of coating the copper 54 on the surface of the substrate 50, the holes 52 formed in the substrate 50 are filled with copper 54, and the copper 54 filled in the holes 52 is As shown in FIG. 5, the spiral flat coil 30 formed on both surfaces of the substrate 20 is connected to one coil.

Here, the substrate 50 covered with the thin copper film 54 may be contaminated by various organic materials and dusts, and thus the surface of the substrate 50 should be cleaned (S105). The cleaning method may be plasma, ions, electrons, photons, or the like. Dry cleaning method is used to clean the surface by physically colliding with the contaminated surface. Of course, it is also possible to use a wet cleaning method for cleaning contaminated surfaces using chemicals and the like. The dry cleaning method and the wet cleaning method are already known and thus will be omitted.

Next, photomasking is performed on the substrate 50 covered with the copper thin film 54 as described above to form the spiral flat coil 30 and the terminal 40 on both surfaces thereof. First, in order to perform photomasking, a mask 60 is manufactured (S106). The mask 60 transfers the spiral pattern of the planar coil 30 and the pattern of the terminal to both surfaces of the substrate 50, and is formed on a light-transmissive plate, for example, a transparent glass plate or a transparent film. The emulsion, chromium and iron oxide thin films are configured to be radiated in a pattern of helical planar coils and terminals predesigned by a pattern generator. Here, the copied pattern is developed into an opaque area through which light cannot pass and a transparent area through which light can pass. When the pattern of the copied flat coil and the terminal is displayed as an opaque area, it is called a 'light field mask'. If the pattern of the flat coil and the terminal is marked with a transparent area, it is called 'Dark field mask'. On the other hand, the pattern of the planar coil and the terminal copied by the pattern generator must be copied a plurality of so that it can be aligned with the hole 52 punched in the substrate 50. For reference, the pattern generator is a high speed shutter controlled by a light source and a computer, and has a feature of forming an accurate pattern. Of course, it is also possible to form the pattern of the spiral planar coil and the terminal by using an electron beam (E-beam) instead of the pattern generator. Since the configuration and operation of the pattern generator and the electron beam are already known, a description thereof will be omitted.

Then, when fabrication of the mask 60 for forming the pattern of the spiral plane coil and the terminal on the substrate 50 is completed, a photosensitive agent is applied to both surfaces of the substrate 50 to form a photosensitive film 56 (S107). The photoresist film 56 serves to expose the pattern of the spiral plane coil and the terminal radiated onto the mask 60 by the light or near ultraviolet rays irradiated through the mask 60 on the substrate 50. It is sprayed onto the substrate 50 by the apparatus and applied. For reference, the dispansing apparatus includes a storage tank for storing the photosensitive agent, a bellows-type pump for applying pressure to the photosensitive agent of the storage tank, a filter and a nozzle for filtering and spraying the photosensitive agent, and spraying an appropriate amount of the photosensitive agent at a predetermined pressure to provide a substrate. It serves to apply evenly on the 50 to a uniform thickness. Detailed configuration and operation of the dispensing apparatus is already widely used, and thus a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

On the other hand, the photoresist is a developer called a photoresist, and is made of a polymer, a solvent, a sensorizer, or the like. Or insoluble properties. In particular, the former is called a positive photosensitizer, the latter is called a negative photosensitizer, and the positive photosensitizer is configured such that as the light is irradiated, the polymer is broken to dissolve only the portion where the light is irradiated. On the contrary, as light is irradiated, a polymer is formed so that only the irradiated portion is not dissolved. For reference, the multimer has a property of withstanding the oxide etching solution. On the other hand, in applying the photosensitive agent on the substrate 50 of the present invention, which of the negative photosensitive agent or the positive photosensitive agent is used, the type of the mask 60, that is, the mask 60 is applied as a 'light field mask' or Select appropriately according to whether it is a 'Dark Field Mask' In the present invention, the use of a 'dark field mask' and a 'negative photosensitive agent' will be described as an example. Of course, it is possible to use 'Light field mask' and 'positive photoresist', but the method of using 'Light field mask' and 'positive photoresist' and 'Dark field mask' and 'negative photoresist' As a result, it is desirable to have a 'Dark field mask' and a 'negative photosensitive agent', which are easy and easy to manufacture, since the same result will be obtained.

On the other hand, after the fabrication (S106) of the mask 60 and the step (S107) of applying the photosensitive film 56 to both surfaces of the substrate 50 is completed, the pattern of the spiral flat coil and the terminal formed on the mask 60 is subsequently Transferring to the photoresist film 56 and transferring the pattern of the spiral plane coil and the terminal transferred to the photoresist film 56 onto the substrate 50 is necessary. The exposure step (S108) and the etching step (S109) are performed, respectively. Is called. Looking at the exposure step (S108) and the etching step (S109) in order as follows. First, the mask 60 is aligned with the upper portion of the substrate 50, and light or near ultraviolet rays are irradiated thereon. Then, light or near ultraviolet rays are irradiated to the photosensitive film 56 applied to the substrate 50 in a pattern formed on the mask 60 while passing through the mask 60. In this state, a photochemical reaction of the photosensitive film 56 of the substrate 50 exposed to light or near ultraviolet rays occurs. In this case, if the mask 60 is a 'Dark field mask' and the photoresist 56 is a negative photoresist, the multiplex will be formed at the portion exposed to light or near ultraviolet rays, and the mask 60 is a 'Light field mask' and the photoresist ( If 56) is a positive photosensitizer, the multiplex will break in areas exposed to light or near ultraviolet light. In any case, the same pattern as the pattern formed on the mask 60 is transferred to the photosensitive film 56 applied to the substrate 50, and a chemical reaction occurs soon where the pattern is transferred. As a result, where the chemical reaction occurs, the etching step is used as an etching layer for forming the spiral flat coil 30 and the terminal 40 in the copper thin film 54 of the substrate 50 or as an etch stop layer. In the present invention, since the dark field mask and the negative photoresist film are taken as an example, portions other than those exposed to light or near ultraviolet rays are used as the etching layer. Meanwhile, in the process of performing the exposure step, the spiral planar coil and the pattern of the terminal of the mask 60 should be transferred to be symmetrical with respect to the hole 52 on both sides of the substrate 50.

When the exposure step S108 is completed, the etching step S109 is performed immediately. Etching step (S109) is a step of directly forming the planar coil 30 and the terminal 40 of the desired pattern on both surfaces of the substrate 50, usually immersed the substrate 50, the exposure step is completed in the developer or The developer is sprayed onto the surface of the substrate 50 to corrode portions where chemical reactions occur, that is, portions other than those constituting the multiplex. As a result, as the specific surface of the substrate 50 is corroded through this etching step, both surfaces of the substrate 50 are connected to the planar coils 30 having spiral patterns and to the planar coils 30. Only the terminals 40 remain, so that a spiral flat coil 30 symmetrical with respect to the hole 52 and a terminal 40 connected thereto are formed.

Meanwhile, the photoresist film 56 and various residual materials remain on the surface of the substrate 50 on which the exposure step S108 and the etching step S109 are completed, and thus the photoresist film 56 remaining on the substrate 50 or A stripping step of removing various residual materials on the substrate 50 is performed (S110). Stripping step (S110) has a wet stripping method using a chemical and a dry stripping method using a plasma, but uses a wet stripping method that can be stripped at a relatively low cost. At this time, care must be taken not to damage the surface of the substrate 50, in particular the flat coil 30 and the terminal 40 during the stripping process.

When the stripping step is completed, the surface treatment step is then performed (S111). The surface treatment step is to protect the plane coil 30 and the terminal 40 of the substrate 50 from external foreign matter or impact, and is configured to coat the plastic on the surface of the substrate 50 by the electroless plating method do. For reference, electroless plating is a method of forming a plated film on the surface of a to-be-plated body by reducing and depositing metal ions in a solution without flowing an electric current from the outside. Of course, it is also possible to coat the plastic on the substrate 50 using a vacuum deposition method, a sputtering method, or the like.

Then, the substrate 50 manufactured through the various steps as described above is tested for the presence of more than one through various inspections (S112), and finally pass the test, the production of the ultra-thin coil plate 10 is completed. On the other hand, a plurality of ultra-thin coil plate 10 produced on the substrate 50 are each cut separately and shipped as a finished product.

Next, an example of use of the ultra-thin coil plate 10 having such a configuration will be described with reference to FIG. 8. (The same components as in the conventional description will be described using the same reference numerals.) First, the communication buzzer is provided with a printed circuit board 1, the ultra-thin coil plate 10 of the present invention is installed on the upper surface of the printed circuit board (1). At this time, the terminals 40 of the ultra-thin coil plate 10 are connected to the + terminal and the-terminal of the printed circuit board 1 by a connector or the like.

And an annular magnet body 6 is installed around the upper edge of the ultra-thin coil plate 10 of the present invention, and a diaphragm support ring 7 surrounding the magnet body 6 around the edge of the coil plate 10. ) Is installed. In addition, a stepped portion 7a is formed on the inner circumferential surface of the diaphragm support ring 7, and the diaphragm 8 is seated on the stepped portion 7a. The outer surface of the diaphragm support ring 7 is covered with an outer case 9. The outer case 9 and the printed circuit board 1 are sealed with a filler 9a to form a communication buzzer.

On the other hand, looking at this configuration, it can be seen that the communication buzzer is configured very thin by using the ultra-thin coil plate 10 of the present invention. In particular, as the ultra-thin coil plate 10 manufactured by the method of photomasking is used, the electric wire is wound around the shaft, and both ends thereof must be soldered to the + and-terminals of the printed circuit board by using a magnifying glass. As can be seen that the cumbersome and difficult assembly process is reduced, and thus the assembly time is greatly reduced and productivity is improved.

Finally, looking at the operation principle of the communication buzzer is installed ultra-thin coil plate 10 of the present invention as follows. First, the magnetic force generated in the magnet body 6 pulls the upper diaphragm 8 downward so that it is always bent downward. When a current is applied to the terminal 40 of the ultra-thin coil plate 10 in this state, a magnetic force is generated in the spiral flat coil 30 of the coil plate 10 to pull the diaphragm 8 further down. At this time, the ultra-thin coil plate 10 is formed with a planar coil 30 on each of the upper and lower surfaces, so that the magnetic force is doubled to suck the diaphragm 8 further down. When the current applied to the terminal 40 is cut off, the diaphragm 8 bent downward returns to its original position. As described above, by repeatedly applying or interrupting the current to the terminal 40 of the coil plate 10, the vibration plate 8 is bent downward or returns to its original position. It happens. Here, the vibration sound generated by the diaphragm 8 is output to the outside through the vibration sound output hole 9c formed at one side via the vibration chamber 9b in the outer case 9.

Meanwhile, in the present invention, the communication buzzer has been described as an application example of the present invention, but as described above, the ultra-thin coil plate 10 of the present invention can be installed in a speaker or the like installed in a small communication device.

In the above described a preferred embodiment of the present invention by way of example, the scope of the present invention is not limited only to this specific embodiment, it can be changed appropriately within the scope described in the claims.

As described above, the communication buzzer and the ultra-thin coil plate for the speaker according to the present invention are formed by forming an ultra-thin spirally formed electromagnetic substrate for vibrating the diaphragm, that is, the coil on a thin plate, thereby forming the communication buzzer. And it has the effect of making the speaker small and slim.

In particular, by forming the spiral flat coil on the substrate by the method of port masking, it is possible to mass-produce in an easier way, thereby reducing the assembly time of the communication buzzer and the speaker and improving the productivity. to provide.
