SPEAKER AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240314476 titled 'SPEAKER AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS
The patent application describes a speaker with a diaphragm that includes a surface-layer member, a plurality of drive points for transmitting vibrations, and a reinforcing member connected to the second surface of the surface-layer member.
- The diaphragm of the speaker has a surface-layer member with a first surface and a second surface.
- Drive points are set at predetermined positions on the second surface for transmitting vibrations.
- A reinforcing member is connected to the second surface and includes first reinforcing portions near the drive points and one or more second reinforcing portions spaced apart from the second surface.
Potential Applications: - High-quality audio systems - Consumer electronics such as headphones and earphones - Automotive audio systems
Problems Solved: - Enhancing sound quality by improving diaphragm structure - Increasing durability and longevity of speakers - Improving overall performance of audio devices
Benefits: - Clearer and more accurate sound reproduction - Enhanced durability and reliability - Improved user experience with audio devices
Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Speaker Technology for Enhanced Audio Performance This technology can be used in high-end audio systems, consumer electronics, and automotive audio systems to provide superior sound quality and durability, catering to audiophiles and music enthusiasts.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the placement of drive points affect the transmission of vibrations in the speaker diaphragm? 2. What materials are commonly used for the surface-layer member in speaker diaphragms?
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on the latest advancements in speaker technology, materials science, and audio engineering to further enhance the performance and quality of speakers using this innovative diaphragm design.
Original Abstract Submitted
there is provided a speaker, including: a diaphragm that includes a surface-layer member that has a first surface and a second surface on a side opposite to the first surface, a plurality of drive points used as a reference for transmission of vibrations being set at predetermined positions of the second surface, and a reinforcing member that includes a plurality of first reinforcing portions and one or more second reinforcing portions and is connected to the second surface of the surface-layer member, the plurality of first reinforcing portions being formed in a vicinity of the respective plurality of drive points, the one or more second reinforcing portions being formed to connect, in a state of being spaced apart from the second surface, between the plurality of first reinforcing portions.
