A suspension element coupled to a diaphragm and to a frame of an acoustic device. The suspension element includes a first surround element and a second surround element that are located adjacent to each other. At least one of the surround elements includes at least one or more openings. The at least one or more openings have features of being located at an edge of the at least one of the surround elements adjacent to the other surround element, or being located in both of the surround elements.

A driver for a loudspeaker including an inner magnet disposed within a housing, an outer magnet disposed within the housing radially outward of the inner magnet, an inner voice coil having a first diameter, an outer voice coil having a second diameter, the second diameter being larger than the first diameter, where poles of the inner and outer magnets are oppositely disposed, where the inner magnet is configured to contribute only to a magnetic circuit of the inner voice coil, and where the outer magnet is configured to contribute to the magnetic circuit of the inner voice coil and to a magnetic circuit of the outer voice coil.

The present disclosure provides an apparatus for audio signal output. The apparatus may include a bone conduction assembly configured to generate a bone conduction acoustic wave. The apparatus may include an air conduction assembly configured to generate an air conduction acoustic wave, the bone conduction acoustic wave and the air conduction acoustic wave may represent a same audio signal. The apparatus may include a phase difference between bone conduction acoustic wave and the air conduction acoustic wave may be smaller than a threshold. The apparatus may include a housing configured to accommodate at least a portion of the bone conduction assembly and the air conduction assembly.

A vibration unit includes an encircling frame defining a vibration cavity therewithin, a vibration member disposed in the vibration cavity, and a suspension including an elastic diaphragm having a periodical wave-shape extended between the vibration member and the encircling frame to support the vibration member within the vibration cavity. The wave-shape diaphragm provides a 3-dimensional connection between the vibration member and the encircling frame to self-generate a repelling force to against a lateral movement of the vibration member so as to ensure the vibration member to be reciprocatingly moved in a linear direction.

There is provided an electrodynamic sound transducer comprising a chassis and at least one diaphragm which is capable of vibrating and which at its edge has at least two oppositely disposed fixing portions for fixing the diaphragm to the chassis. The edge of the diaphragm is not connected to the chassis between the fixing portions so that the diaphragm can vibrate freely at those locations.

Embodiments are disclosed of a speaker capable of producing multi-frequency-range sound using bar magnets, multiple diaphragms, and a shared planar voice coil. The planar voice coil is located between the bar magnets and translates a received electric signal into the kinetic energy that vibrates the diaphragms, thus reproducing multi-frequency range sound. In some embodiments, the speaker generates bi-directional sound.
