  • Patent number: 8923545
    Abstract: An electroacoustic transducer has a ring-shaped magnetic assembly that generates a magnetic field, an elastic suspension connected to the magnetic assembly, a support connected to the elastic suspension and supporting a coil adapted to move in the magnetic field generated by the magnetic assembly, and an acoustic membrane connected to the support of the coil in order to vibrate and emit a sound. The magnetic assembly has a thin housing and support structure made of non-magnetic material, and a plurality of magnets with magnetic axis (A) and axial anisotropy, said magnets being disposed side by side, inside said thin housing and support structure that acts as bearing structure for the transducer and as containment structure for the magnets.

  • Patent number: 8811650
    Abstract: A ribbon transducer comprising a ribbon made of conductive material, two rigid supports where the ends of the ribbon are fixed, and a tensioning and damping system provided at least at one end of the conductive ribbon to tension the ribbon and damp its movements. The tensioning and damping system comprises a leaf spring comprising a first end section to which said ribbon is fixed and a second end section fixed to said rigid support, in such a way to exert a tensile force in the tensioning direction of the ribbon.
