Definitions
- the present application relates to the technical field of electronic equipment, and in particular, to an acoustic output device.
- acoustic output devices eg, earphones
- earphones have become indispensable social and entertainment tools in people's daily lives, and people have higher and higher requirements for acoustic output devices.
- the existing acoustic output devices still have many problems, such as complex structure, poor sound quality, and serious sound leakage. Therefore, it is desirable to provide an acoustic output device with a simple structure and high acoustic performance to meet the needs of users.
- the acoustic output device may include a speaker assembly.
- the speaker assembly may include a transducer, a diaphragm and a housing.
- the diaphragm vibrates under the drive of the transducer device to generate air-conducted sound waves.
- the housing may form an accommodating cavity for accommodating the transducer device and the diaphragm.
- the diaphragm may separate the accommodating cavity to form a first cavity and a second cavity.
- the shell may be provided with a sound outlet communicating with the second chamber.
- the air conduction sound waves can be transmitted to the outside of the acoustic output device through the sound outlet.
- the casing may be provided with a sound guide channel communicating with the sound outlet hole, so as to guide the air guide sound wave to a target direction outside the acoustic output device.
- the length of the acoustic channel may be less than or equal to 7mm.
- the length of the acoustic channel may be in the range of 2mm-5mm.
- the cross-sectional area of the acoustic channel may be greater than or equal to 4.8 mm 2 .
- the cross-sectional area of the sound-guiding channel may gradually increase along the transmission direction of the air-guiding acoustic wave.
- the cross-sectional area of the inlet end of the acoustic channel may be greater than or equal to 10 mm 2 .
- the cross-sectional area of the outlet end of the acoustic channel may be greater than or equal to 15 mm 2 .
- the ratio of the volume of the acoustic channel to the volume of the second chamber may be in the range of 0.05-0.9.
- the volume of the second chamber may be less than or equal to 400 mm 3 .
- the channel wall of the acoustic channel may comprise a curved structure.
- the outlet end cap of the sound guiding channel is provided with an acoustic resistance net, and the porosity of the acoustic resistance net may be greater than or equal to 13%.
- the housing may include a skin-contacting area that may vibrate and generate bone-conducted acoustic waves driven by the transducer device.
- the diaphragm is physically connected to at least one of the transducer device or the housing.
- the diaphragm moves relative to at least one of the transducer device or the housing to generate the air-conducted acoustic wave.
- the transducing device may include a magnetic circuit assembly, a coil, and a coil support.
- Magnetic circuit assemblies may be used to provide the magnetic field.
- a coil may be used to vibrate under the magnetic field in response to a received audio signal.
- a coil holder may be used to support the coil. At least a part of the coil holder is exposed from the side of the casing in a direction perpendicular to the vibration direction of the casing.
- the acoustic output device may further include a sound guide member.
- the sound guide member may include the sound guide channel and a recessed area where the coil support is located when the sound guide member is physically connected to the housing.
- a socket may be provided on one of the housing and the sound guide member.
