Abstract

A condenser microphone having a shape of parallelepiped for easily confirming the direction of a component in the process of SMD even if the microphone has two or more electric connecting terminals is disclosed. The condenser microphone comprises a case; a diaphragm member; a thin spacer; a cylindrical insulating ring; a back plate; an annular conductive ring; and the PCB. According to the present invention, since the direction of a component can be confirmed during a process of a surface mounting device (SMD), terminal connections of the component can be easily adjusted. Accordingly, this can prevent connection surfaces of connection terminals of a main PCB and connection terminals of the condenser microphone from being deviated, and also decrease a failure of connection that may be resulted from change of connection or direction (polarity) of the connection terminals.

Description

A PARALLELEPIPED TYPE CONDENSER MICROPHONE FOR SMD
TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a condenser microphone, and more particularly to a condenser microphone having a shape of parallelepiped for easily confirming the direction of a component in the process of SMD even if the microphone has two or more electric connecting terminals.
BACKGROUND ART A typical condenser microphone includes a voltage bias element, which is generally comprised of electrets, a pair of diaphragm/back plate forming capacity C that can be varied in response to sound pressure, and a JFET (Junction Field Effect Transistor) for buffering output signal. Fig. 1 is a schematic view of a conventional general condenser microphone. As shown in Fig. 1, a typical condenser microphone 10 has a cylindrical metal case including a polar ring, a diaphragm, a spacer, a back plate, a first base which has a shape of a ring made of insulating material, a second base which is made of conductive material, and a PCB, etc., therein. The typical condenser microphone has an appearance having a cylindrical shape and two connection terminals are formed in the PCB. Meanwhile, during a surface mounting process, terminals of the main PCB must be correctly connected with terminals of the condenser microphone. However, the above-mentioned conventional cylindrical condenser microphone had a constmction, which was not suitable for surface mounting device (SMD). Because a terminal surface is formed low than a curling surface of the case, a failure of solder attachment may be caused during the surface mounting process. In particular, if there are provided a plurality of terminals therein, it will be difficult to confirm the direction of connection terminals. Thus, this has arisen a problem that the connection terminals are inadequately connected under the condition that polarity of the connection terminals has been changed during the surface mounting process or that only a part of surfaces of the connection terminals is connected because the surface of the connection terminal is deviated, and thus, a failure of connection is increased. DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention is intended to solve the problem as mentioned above. It is an object of the present invention to provide a parallelepiped type condenser microphone wherein the direction of a component can be easily confirmed and the SMD process can be applied even if the microphone has numerous connecting terminals. In order to accomplish the object of the invention, a condenser microphone according to an embodiment of the present invention, comprises a case formed in a square box shape, the case having an open surface and a closed bottom surface which is formed with sound holes for collecting sound; a diaphragm member formed in a ring shape, the diaphragm member being inserted into the case; a thin spacer formed in a ring shape; a cylindrical insulating ring having an open top and bottom portions; a back plate formed in a disk shape and having sound holes therethrough; an annular conductive ring for electrically connecting the back plate to a PCB; and the PCB formed in a square plate shape, the PCB having electronic components mounted on one surface of the PCB and projecting terminals formed on the other surface thereof. Here, the diaphragm member, the spacer, the insulating ring, the back plate, the conductive ring, and the PCB are sequentially arranged in the case and then the condenser microphone is integrally assembled by curling an end of the case. In order to accomplish the object of the invention, a condenser microphone according to another embodiment of the present invention, comprises a case formed in a square box shape, the case having an open surface and a closed bottom surface which is formed with sound holes for collecting front sound; a diaphragm member formed in a ring shape, the diaphragm member being inserted into the case; a thin spacer formed in a ring shape; a shield ring formed in a loop shape for insulating a back plate; the back plate formed in a disk shape and having sound holes therethrough; an integrated base having a cylindrical insulating body having open top and bottom portions and a conductive layer which provides an electrical connection between the back plate and a PCB and is formed in the inner surface of the insulating body; and the PCB formed in a square plate shape, the PCB having electronic components mounted on one surface of the PCB and projecting terminals formed on the other surface thereof. Here, the diaphragm member, the spacer, the shield ring, the back plate, the integrated base, and the PCB are sequentially arranged in the case and then the condenser microphone is integrally assembled by curling an end of the case.
