  • Patent number: 9117434
    Abstract: A vibration-lead plate for a flat speaker is mounted between a voice coil plate and a vibration plate for increasing vibrational efficiency and removing the lead wire of a voice coil. The vibration-lead plate includes: a coil plate-spline, mounted between a voice coil plate having a voice coil formed in the shape of a spiral track and a vibration plate to vibrate according to the movement of the voice coil plate for generating sound, and formed in the center so as to be adhered to the voice coil plate; an edge-spline, connected to one side of the coil plate-spline and the edge of the vibration plate so as to variably correspond to vibrations; and a vibration plate outside portion, connected to one side of the edge-spline and adhered to the outside portion of the edge of the vibration plate.

  • Patent number: 8953834
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a flat-panel speaker, and more particularly, to a flat-panel speaker having a multilayer PCB pattern voice coil film, which enables induced electromotive force to be increased by controlling the impedance of the multilayer voice coil film. The flat panel speaker having the multilayer PCB pattern voice coil film according to the present invention is characterized in that the voice coil comprises: a PCB (printed circuit board) pattern printed thereon and voice coil films stacked in an even number of 4 layers or more. Two layers each of said voice coil films are mutually connected in series, and the serially-connected voice coil films are connected to each other in parallel.

  • Publication number: 20140233766
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a flat-type speaker, and more particularly, to a flat-type speaker in which a plurality of magnetic circuits are consecutively connected in series or in parallel so as to constitute one speaker. In the flat-type speaker in which the plurality of magnetic circuits are consecutively connected, two or more voice coil plates, on each of which voice coils are printed, are successively arranged, and two or more vibrating-reed plates in the form of a thin film are arranged on the upper ends of the two or more voice coil plates, respectively, such that said vibrating-reed plates are electrically isolated from each other. Also, said voice coils and said two or more vibrating-reed plates are electrically connected together.

  • Publication number: 20140219494
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a flat-type speaker, and more particularly, to a flat-type speaker having one magnet for transferring vibration into a diaphragm and two voice coil plates in one magnetic circuit, wherein the voice coil plates are coupled to both sides of the magnet. The flat-type speaker in which n magnets and n+1 voice coil plates are coupled to each other consists essentially of: the magnet positioned on a central portion; a pair of yoke plates having magnetic bodies spaced a predetermined distance apart from the magnet, such that the magnet is between the yoke plates; two voice coil plates having voice coils inserted between the magnet and one of the yoke plates and between the magnet and the other yoke plate; and a diaphragm vibrated by receiving the vibration of the voice coil plates in a state where the diaphragm contacts upper ends of the voice coil plates.

  • Publication number: 20060293070
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for processing messages in a mobile terminal having a communication service cutoff mode for disabling voice calls and message transmissions. The method includes the steps of storing one or more input messages when a user presses a key to send the messages during the communication service cutoff mode and automatically sending each stored message to a corresponding recipient upon cancellation of the communication service cutoff mode. The messages input during the communication service cutoff mode are automatically sent to corresponding recipients upon cancellation of that mode, thereby improving user convenience.
