  • Patent number: 10003008
    Abstract: Membrane device comprising a support, a membrane suspended on the support, a first actuator in contact with the membrane designed to apply a force on the membrane, a second actuator in contact with the membrane designed to apply a force on the membrane, means of determining the position of the membrane relative to the support and control means of the first and second actuators, said control means applying a deformation signal to one of the first and second actuators to deform the membrane and applying a control signal to the other of the first and second actuators to control displacement of the membrane, application of the control signal being determined by the membrane position.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9900700
    Abstract: A digital acoustic device including: at least one suspended diaphragm facing a support and at least one actuator associated with the diaphragm, the associated actuator being configured to move the diaphragm away from and/or closer to the support; a stop mechanism configured to interrupt movement of the diaphragm further to activating the actuator when the diaphragm has a non-zero speed, the stop mechanism being sized to interrupt the movement of the diaphragm when the movement of the diaphragm is greater than or equal to 50% of the theoretical maximum stroke of the diaphragm and lower than or equal to 95% of the theoretical maximum stroke of the diaphragm.

  • Patent number: 9601457
    Abstract: Method comprising steps as follows: a) depositing a meltable ball on a first conducting zone located in a blind hole formed on a first face of a first support, b) assembling the first support with a second support by transfer of the meltable ball on a second conducting zone, the transfer also being made by thermo-compression so as to compress the ball, the compressed ball being held at a distance from the side walls of the blind hole.
