ACOUSTIC DEVICE rind Ju, 5. 1931 Jaw 0. Ghz/afer v/ND Smet- Rr Patented Feb. 19, 1935 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE ACOUSTIC DEVICE Application' January 5, 1931, serial No. 506,616
18 Claims.
This invention relates to an acoustic device and more particularly to an electro-dynamic speaker having a permanent eld magnet.
In the use of loud speakers provided with a movable speech coil in connection with battery operated receivers, it is not practical to provide an electro-magnetic eld for the movable speech coil. It has been proposed to use a cast cobalt steel magnetic iield. As is well known to those skilled in the art, a permanent magnet that is to be used in connection with a movable speech coil must be made to very accurate dimensions. The allowable tolerance in the air gap is oftentimes only of the order of a thousandth of an inch. This being the case, it is necessary to iinish the cast piece by suitable tooling. This is not practical if the permanent magnet is made from such material as cobalt steel having great magnetic retentivity, for the reason that cobalt steel is too hard to be successfully tooled, especially in mass production.
An object of this invention is to provide a permanent cobalt magnet that does not extend near the air gap. This has been accomplished by providing a short magnetic piece of cobalt steel that may be permanently magnetized and that forms part of a magnetic circuit, the balance of which includes suitable ferro-magnetic material that may be easily tooled.
Anotherl object of this invention is to reduce the cost, save material, reduce the labor required in the making of a magnet without sac riiicing the eiciency of the magnet. Further objects and advantages of the present invention will be apparent from the following description, reference being had to the accompanying drawing wherein a preferred em bodiment of one form oi the present invention is clearly shown.
'I'he vdrawing represents a cross section through a dynamic acoustic device which is provided with a permanent eld magnet.
Referring to the drawing, a cup shaped field housing 12 of ferro-magnetic material such as cold rolled steel orthe like is supported by a frame or a radio chassis (not shown) in any suitable manner.
A housing 14 having the apertures 16 of any suitable shape, number and arrangement, has a flared rim 18 that supports the iiared edge 22 of a sound damping felt cone 20 and the flared portion 24 of a sound reproducing cone or diaphragm 26 held in position by a clamping ring 28. A plurality of screws 30 extend through plain holes in members 28, 24, 22 and 18 so as to cooperate with the nuts 32 and the lock washers 34, thus securing the members 28, 24
and 22 to the supporting rim 18 of the housing The small end 36 of the frustro-conical diaphragm 26 is cemented or otherwise secured to the outer surface of a flared rim 38 of a speech coil support 40 which carries a. movable speech coil 42. The two terminals 44, only one of which is shown, are wound around a pair of conductors 46 and conductively secured thereto in any suitable manner as at 48. The end 50 of each con ductor 46 projects through a hole 52 inside of the speech coil support 40 and is cemented or otherwise secured thereto as at 54. The other end of each conductor 46 is conductively fastened to a pair of terminals 56 that are connected to an external circuit (not shown).
In the conventional electro-dynamic speaker, the center pole piece is usually made from a piece of ferro-magnetic material that has one end riveted, welded or otherwise -secured to a magnetic housing and the other end machined so as to accurately fit within a movable speech coil. This structure is very satisfactory where the magnetic field is produced by a magnetic coil properly energized.
In the present modification a permanent magnet has been used which is made from tempered cobalt steel. Cobalt steel that has been ternL pered is very hard to mill or machine. This being the case, if it shall be machined, it is necessary to machine cobalt steel before it is tempered. If this is done, it is practically imposn sible to temper the cobalt steel after assembling.
In the modiiication disclosed in the drawing, the center pole piece comprises two pieces, one a tempered cobalt steel cylindrical stud piece 66 seated in the recess 68 in the magnetic housing 12 and held therein. by means of a plurality of screws 78 passing through a center brass annulus 74 provided with an aperture 72 that snugly nts around the machined portion 67 of the other pole piece or cap 64 and that engages a shoulder 73 integral with an annular iiange 70. The cap 64 fits around the center pole piece 66.
An annular pole piece 90 provided with a recess 88 is held in position by a ilange 8'7 integral with 86 that extends into the recess 88 and is held in relatively fixed position by the screws 94 that pass through suitable holes in the annular pole piece 90 and threadedly engage the brass annulus 74. It can be readily seen that as the screws 94 and the nuts are tightened, the annular pole piece is clamped against the housing 12 as at 96 and centered with respect to the center pole piece cap 64 by the brass annulus '74 and that the cap 64 cooperates with the housing 12 to clamp the cen- 'ter pole piece 66 into position. The center pole piece 66 having great magnetic virtue upon being properly magnetized cooperates with the magnetic housing 12, the annular pole piece 90, the air gap 92, and the center pole piece cap 64 to form a magnetic path.
By this arrangement, the air gap 92 found between the annular pole piece 90 and the cap 64 is always uniform so that the movable speech coil 42 and its support 40 can move axially without interference with the pole pieces.
While the form of embodiment of the present invention as herein disclosed, constitutes a preferred form, it is to be understood that other forms might be adopted, all coming within the scope of the claims which follow.
