Definitions

  • the invention relates to an acoustic resistance for use in a device for converting acoustic vibrations into electric waves. More particularly, the invention relates to an acoustic resistance comprising a plurality of adjacent sintered metal grains contained in a supporting body and held together by the supporting body.
  • Such resistances are frequently used in microphones. They consist of a plurality of grains baked together by sintering. However, it is common practice hitherto to press the sintered grains in the form of an assembly into apertures in a mechanically hard material, such as iron or brass. These apertures are then completely filled by the grains. A disadvantage of this practice consists in that the grains are mechanically deformed when pressed into this material. As a result, the acoustic resistance value is also varied.
  • the invention is characterized in that the supporting body consists of a resilient synthetic resin.
  • the supporting body has the form of a ring into which the sintered grains are pressed.
  • these rings can be slipped, for example, into a tube which is mounted afterwards in a microphone.
  • various types of microphones can be provided with different tubular acoustic resistances.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 are cross-sectional views of acoustic resistances in accordance with the invention.
  • FIG. 3 is a longitudinal sectional view of a tube comprising a plurality of acoustic resistances.
  • a ring 2 of synthetic resin is secured on a steel ring 1.
  • the ring 2 has several apertures 4 in which acoustic resistances are provided which have the form of sintered metal grains 3.
  • FIG. 2 shows another embodiment in which a metal tube with a flange 5 is provided on the inner side with a plastic tube 6.
  • the tube 6 in turn is provided with an acoustic resistance 7 consisting of sintered metal grains.
  • a metal tube 10 is provided with several acoustic resistance units axially arranged in the tube at the required places.
  • Each acoustic resistance unit consists of a plastic tube 11 in which an acoustic resistance 12 composed of sintered metal grains is provided.
  • An acoustic resistance member for use in an electroacoustic microphone comprising, a support body composed of a resilient synthetic resin material having an opening therein, and a plurality of adjacent sintered metal grains pressed together within said opening and held together by said support body so as to produce little or no deformation of the metal grains.
  • an acoustic resistance member comprising an elongate tube, a plurality of other tubes composed of a resilient synthetic resin material and mounted within said elongate tube in axially spaced relation, each of said resilient tubes being at least partially filled with a plurality of sintered metal grains pressed together within the tube and held together thereby.
  • an acoustic resistance member comprising an elongate metal tube, a plurality of ring-shaped members composed of a resilient plastic material and coaxially mounted within said tube in axially spaced relation, each of said rings containing a plurality of sintered metal grains pressed together within the ring and held together thereby.
  • An acoustic resistance member for use in an elec troacoustic microphone comprising, a metal ring-shaped member having an aperture therein, a second ring-shaped member coaxially secured to said metal ring and composed of a resilient plastic material, said second ring having an opening therein aligned with said aperture and containing a plurality of sintered metal grains held together by the plastic member.
  • a method of forming an acoustic resistance within. an aperture of a support body composed of a resilient synthetic resin material comprising the following steps, sintering a plurality of metal grains together, and pressing said sintered metal grains into the aperture in said resilient support body.
