Definitions
- One of. the objects of my invention is to rcvide means for suspending a conical shaped diaphragm in a plane intermediatethe apex and free peripheral edge thereof in such manner that sound vibrations may be impressed upon the cone shaped diaphragm from an electromagnetic driving system.
- Another object of my invention is to provide a free edge cone shaped sound reproducing diaphragm construction having means for eliminating blasting of the free peripheral edge while suspending the diaphragm intermediate the free 29- peripheral edge and the apex thereof.
- Still another object of my invention is to provide a construction of cone shaped sound reproducing diaphragm having means for centering the diaphragm within a ring structure intermediate the apex and peripheral edge thereof and suspending the diaphragm in the centered position for reciprocatory movement and the reproduction of sound from sound vibrations which are impressed upon the soundreproducing diaph s
- a further object of my invention is to provide a supporting member for an electromagnetic winding within the fieldof a power speaker system, wherein a metallic ring member forms both the connecting means between the coil supporting member and aconical shaped diaphragm'and also provides a closed circuitadjacent the electromagnetic winding for flattening the characteristic curve of the loud speaker system.

- Fig. 2 is a front view of the stiff ening member which I provide adjacent the supporting membrane in the sound reproducer for centering the cone with respect to the membrane
- Fig. 3 is a side elevation of the centering device illustrated in Fig. 2
- 'Fig. 4 is an enlarged view of the free peripheral edge of the sound reproducing diaphragm of my invention
- Fig. 5 is, a cross-sectional view showing a modified.ar-' rangement of centering device for the sound reproducing diaphragm of my invention
- Fig. .6 is a perspective View of the centering device illustrated in cross-section in Fig. 5
- Fig. 7 is a perspective view of the construction of bobbin which carries the operating winding constitut-' ing part of the. electromagnetic driver of the sound reproducer of my invention.
- the stiffeneddevice is rigid in a radial direction but is flexible in the direction of theaxis of the cone shaped sound reproducing diaphragm permitting free vibratory movement of the diaphragm.
- actuating bobbin which is attached to the cone shaped sound reproducing diaphragm is provided with a metallicconicalshaped connecting means which serves not only as a unit or coupling between the cone shapedsound reproducing diaphragm but also as a short circuited conductor whichintroduces such losses in the loud speaker as will produce such acharacteristic curve as will uniformily reproduce the notes over a broad range of frequencies.
- reference'character -1 designates a cone shaped sound reproducing diaphragmhaving a rolled pcripheral edge 2 with a stiffening ring member 3 therein.
- a damping member 4 is attached to the outer body of the cone for suppressing blasting, weaving, rattling, fluttering or other noises inherent in cone shaped diaphragms as set forth more particularly in Patent No. 1,775,064, granted to Ralph L. Brown.
- Aring structure 5 is provided for locating the cone in position with respect to the electromagnetic drivingmechanism.
- the ring structure 5 has an annular bead 6 formed on the edge thereof.
- a flexible membrane 7 is attached to the body of the cone 1 in a position intermediate the apex and'free peripheral edge thereof and is extended over the beaded edge 6 onto the cylindrical surface of the ring structure 5.
- the membrane '7 is secured over the ring structure 5 by means of a hoop member 8 which snugly secures the membrane 7 upon the cylindrical surface 5.
- I provide a stiffening member 9 having a flat circular portion and a central conicalportion 10' illustrated more clearly in Figs. 2 and 3.
- the conical portion 10 snugly fits over the portion of the membrane 7 which is attached to the surface of the cone 1 and extends into the off-set shoulder designatedat 27 in ring structure 5.
- the centering device 9 is apertured at 11 (Fig.2) in such manner that the cone is free to vibrate inthe direction of the axis thereof but is rigidly centered in a radial direction.
- This centering means permits the bobbin 16 which is carried by coil support 12 in turn connectedthrough metallic member 14 withan inturned head 15 therein to be accurately centered within the magnetic gap of the pole pieces of the power speaker.
- the structure of the coil support and metallic conductor 14 is shown more clearly in Fig. '7. It will be observed that the conductor 14 provides a closed metallic circuit immediately adjacent the winding 16 for the introduction of the desired losses'for rendering the reproduction curve for the loud speaker more uniform over a wide band of frequencies; t T In Figs.
