Patent number: 8682022Abstract: A loudspeaker including a bottom plate being formed from a material capable of transmitting a magnetic flux. The bottom plate has a bottom portion, a cylindrical inside portion that extends upwardly from the bottom portion, and a cylindrical outside portion that extends upwardly from the bottom portion and encircles the inside portion. A cylindrical magnet is positioned on the bottom portion. A top plate is formed from a magnetic flux-transmissive material and extends outwardly from the top of the magnet. The top plate is laterally spaced away from the outside portion so as to form an air gap between the top plate and the outside portion. A diaphragm has a bobbin portion that is positioned within the air gap and is capable of free movement in the air gap. The suspension portion of the diaphragm is positioned at the center of the magnet. The sound-producing portion of the diaphragm is affixed to the top of the bobbin portion and is affixed to the top of the suspension portion.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2008Date of Patent: March 25, 2014Inventor: Jason Myles Cobb

Patent number: 8009858Abstract: A loudspeaker including a frame and a toroidal magnet that is affixed to the rear of the frame. The toroidal magnet has a central passageway that opens into the frame. A cap is affixed to the rear of the magnet and closes the central passageway. A guide rod is affixed to the cap and projects forwardly from the cap into the central passageway. A tubular former is slidably positioned upon the guide rod. A voice coil is wound about, and is affixed to, the tubular former. A driver plate is affixed to the front of the tubular former. A resilient surround connects the periphery of the driver plate to the front of the frame. A suspension assembly resiliently connects the tubular former to the frame and has a pair of conical diaphragms that are secured together so as to form a bellows. A spider connects the bellows to the frame and another spider connects the bellows to the tubular former.Type: GrantFiled: November 28, 2007Date of Patent: August 30, 2011Inventor: Jason Myles Cobb

Publication number: 20100054520Abstract: A loudspeaker including a bottom plate formed from a material capable of transmitting a magnetic flux. The bottom plate has a bottom portion and a first side portion that is affixed to, and extends upwardly from, the periphery of the bottom portion. A magnet is affixed to, and extends upwardly from, the center of the bottom portion. A top plate, formed from a material capable of transmitting a magnetic flux, has a top portion that is affixed to, and extends outwardly from, the top of the magnet. The top plate also has a second side portion that is affixed to, and extends downwardly from, the periphery of the top portion. The second side portion is laterally spaced away from the first side portion so as to define a first air gap between the second side portion and the first side portion. The second side portion is laterally spaced away from the magnet so as to define a second air gap between the second side portion and the magnet.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 28, 2008Publication date: March 4, 2010Inventor: Jason Myles Cobb
