  • Publication number: 20250113142
    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a speaker comprising a housing and a sound producing unit fixed to the housing; the sound producing unit comprises: a frame, a vibration system, a magnetic circuit system and a spring damping element; the spring damping element supports the magnetic circuit system in vibration in the holding space; a counterweight block housed in the rear cavity and fixed to a side of magnetic bowl away from the magnetic circuit system. The speaker of the present invention constitutes another vibration system by means of a magnet or a magnetic bowl and a spring damping element, which vibrates opposite to the vibration system consisting of a diaphragm-dome-voice coil, resulting in a reduction of the force on the cone frame; the addition of a counterweight block reduces the effect of air in the rear cavity on the magnet; the magnetic through-holes and leakage holes optimize vibration damping.

  • Patent number: 12238474
    Abstract: The present invention provides a speaker box including a housing, a sound unit and a magnetic circuit coupling valve. The sound unit includes a bracket, a vibration system and a magnetic circuit system including a secondary magnet. The housing includes a bottom cover having leakage holes. The magnetic circuit coupling valve is accommodated in a rear cavity and includes a support, a negative stiffness diaphragm and a coil. The negative stiffness diaphragm faces to the leakage holes. The coil receives an external control signal and generates an electromagnetic field with the secondary magnet to drive the negative stiffness diaphragm to seal the leakage holes, or make the leakage holes open, or make the leakage holes partially open or closed. Compared with a related technology, the speaker box has fine acoustic performance and is able to accurately control communication of a rear cavity with the outside.

  • Patent number: 12238476
    Abstract: The invention provides a speaker module for a mobile terminal with a sound output port. The speaker module includes a speaker box. The speaker box includes a sound output opening for side surface sound. The speaker module also includes a horn barre. The horn barrel has openings arranged at both ends. A sectional area along the sound output direction of the horn barrel changes gradually. By designing a variable sectional surface with different areas or lengths and widths on the horn barrel for stakeout, the size of the variable sectional surface is directly related to the sound quality of each part of the horn barrel. The horn barrel widens the frequency band range. Compared with the related art, the present invention can realize multi-level resonance, has a small volume, is convenient to widen the frequency band range and has flexible avoidance space.

  • Publication number: 20240414472
    Abstract: A smart device for reducing sound leakage includes a frame, a main sound-generating device, an auxiliary sound-generating device, and a controller. The controller is configured to generate a control signal based on an electrical signal of the main sound-generating device to trigger the auxiliary sound-generating device to generate sound, so that the sound generated by the auxiliary sound-generating device and sound generated by the main sound-generating device through the sound outlet hole are superposed on each other, or the sound generated by the auxiliary sound-generating device and sound leakage generated by the main sound-generating device through the sound leakage hole form a dipole effect and counteract each other. The smart device according to the present disclosure can further reduce the sound leakage to improve privacy of the smart device for reducing sound leakage, which can also achieve an effect of improving sound quality.

  • Patent number: 12101597
    Abstract: The present invention provides a speaker module for a mobile terminal provided with a sound output port. The speaker module includes a speaker box. The speaker box includes a first sound output opening and a second sound output opening. A speaker module also includes a first horn barrel and a second horn barrel. The first horn barrel and the second horn barrel are arranged asymmetrically with respect to the speaker box. The speaker module in the present invention realizes the multi-order coupling of the resonance peak, which not only improves the high-frequency performance, but also widens the frequency band range, and at the same time, reduces the manufacturing cost.
