  • Publication number: 20080240482
    Abstract: An arrangement for optimizing the frequency response of an electro-acoustic transducer (10), comprising the electro-acoustic transducer (10) and a damping element (12) arranged behind the sound emanating or receiving side of a membrane (14) of the electro-acoustic transducer (10), wherein an air gap (16) is provided between the damping element (12, 13) and the membrane (14), which air gap (16) is sufficiently small for intimately acoustically coupling the membrane (14) with the damping element (12, 13), wherein the damping element (12, 13) is adapted to dampen an air flow created by the membrane (14) when moving.

  • Patent number: 6751323
    Abstract: An electroacoustic transducer (1) includes a ringing signal generation means (20) for generating a ringing signal (CS) and an electroacoustic transducer (9) for the acoustic reproduction of the ringing signal (CS), in which the ringing signal generation means (20) includes at least two fundamental tone signal generation stages (GT1, GT2, . . . GTn), which are each adapted to generate a fundamental tone signal (GS1, GS2, . . . GSn) of a given frequency (f1, f2, . . . fn), which frequencies (f1, f2 . . . fn) are in a rational ratio to each other, and in which the ringing signal generation means (20) has a control means (21) with the aid of which each of the fundamental tone signal generation stages (GT1, GT2, . . . GTn) can be activated for a given time interval, namely in such a manner that at least two fundamental tone signal generation stages (GT1, GT2, . . . GTn) are activated simultaneously.
