  • Patent number: 7570774
    Abstract: A speaker having an improved sound-radiating function to both directions is provided. The speaker includes a magnetic circuit unit, a voice coil, and an auxiliary vibrating plate and a primary vibrating plate sequentially arranged from a forward direction. The voice coil vibrates toward a backward direction and a forward direction due to interaction with the magnetic circuit unit. The auxiliary vibrating plate is cone-shaped and has a damping function. The primary vibrating plate is also cone-shaped. Central necks of the primary vibrating plate and the auxiliary vibrating plate are fixed on the voice coil, respectively. The auxiliary vibrating plate is enlarged toward a forward direction and the primary vibrating plate is enlarged toward a backward direction.

  • Patent number: 6611605
    Abstract: Disclosed is a speaker having a device capable of generating sound and vibration for notifying reception of an incoming call when a radio incoming signal is received. The speaker comprises a cylindrical frame; magnetic field forming means disposed in the cylindrical frame for forming first and second magnetic flux; a sound generating section for producing electromagnetic force by interaction with the first magnetic flux and thereby generating sound, when a signal having a frequency which is no less than a predetermined frequency, is applied thereto; and vibration generating means for producing electromagnetic force by interaction with the second magnetic flux and thereby generating vibration, when a signal having a frequency which is less than the predetermined frequency, is applied thereto.
