  • Publication number: 20230396905
    Abstract: Provided is a bracket for a speaker, the bracket being capable of ensuring the strength when the speaker is attached by using an attachment plate, and also enhancing the workability in folding of the attachment plate when the speaker is attached without using the attachment plate. The present invention includes: a frame-shaped support portion 10 which supports a speaker; and a mounting member 20 which is used for attaching the speaker supported by the support portion 10 to the outside and is provided in the support portion 10, wherein a plurality of grooves having different extension directions are continuously formed on a base part of the mounting member 20, the base part connecting the mounting member 20 and the support portion 10.

  • Patent number: 10277976
    Abstract: Provided is a speaker device achieving thinning and cost reduction. The speaker device includes a first speaker unit and a second speaker unit. An outer peripheral side of the speaker unit is provided with a folded portion protruding to an opposite side of a sound emission direction P. A flat portion is provided inside the folded portion. An opening is provided inside the flat portion. A voice coil bobbin is secured to the opening. A speaker unit is arranged in the voice coil bobbin. An external-magnet-type magnetic circuit is provided in the speaker unit. As a magnet of the magnetic circuit, a ferrite magnet having a large volume is used.

  • Patent number: 10264347
    Abstract: Provided is a speaker device achieving thinning and cost reduction. The speaker device includes a first speaker unit having a first diaphragm connected to a voice coil bobbin, and a second speaker unit having a second diaphragm provided inside the voice coil bobbin. When a sound emission direction P of the first speaker unit and the second speaker unit is upward and an opposite direction of the sound emission direction P is downward, a position of an upper end A of the first diaphragm is substantially equal to an upper end B of the second diaphragm.

  • Publication number: 20100128891
    Abstract: A repulsive-type magnetic circuit prevents deterioration of magnetic characteristic of magnets due to heat accumulation, and includes: a magnet and plural magnets arranged such that matching poles of the magnet and each of the plural magnets confront each other; a yoke; a pole piece; and a top plate. The pole piece is above the yoke. The top plate is above the pole piece. The magnet is between the yoke and the pole piece. The plural magnets are arranged between the pole piece and top plate. Joule heat generated by the voice coil is hardly propagated, as radiant heat, to one of the plural magnets on the side near the top plate. Accordingly, the temperature of the magnet on the top plate side hardly rises even if radiant heat continuously propagates to the pole piece. This prevents demagnetization of each of the plural magnets, and deterioration of the magnetic characteristics thereof.
