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.

The present invention provides a method for making a speaker vibrating member, including: impregnating a fiber cloth with a resin solution for at least one time; removing the fiber cloth from the resin solution, and impregnating the fiber cloth with a water-based rubber solution for at least one time; drying the fiber cloth; forming at least one speaker vibrating member shaped portion on a dried fiber cloth; and cutting the at least one speaker vibrating member shaped portion off from the dried fiber cloth to acquire the speaker vibrating member. In such a way, the fiber cloth may be prevented from sticking with the mold during the formation step due to the protection provided by the release layer. In addition, the speaker vibrating member manufactured by the method has a higher flexibility and a remarkable fatigue resistance; consequently, the sound quality of the speaker may be enhanced.

A sound system is provided with a headphone that includes a transducer and at least one microphone. The sound system also includes an equalization filter and a loop filter circuit. The equalization filter is adapted to equalize an audio input signal based on at least one predetermined coefficient. The loop filter circuit includes a leaky integrator circuit that is adapted to generate a filtered audio signal based on the equalized audio input signal and a feedback signal indicative of sound received by the at least one microphone, and to provide the filtered audio signal to the transducer.

A speaker assembly including a frame and a magnet assembly positioned within the frame. The magnet assembly may include a magnet and a top plate. The assembly further including a sound radiating surface suspended over the magnet assembly. The sound radiating surface includes a flexible circuit. A suspension suspending the sound radiating surface over the magnet assembly is further provided. The suspension may be over molded to the sound radiating surface and the frame. A voice coil extends from a bottom side of the sound radiating surface and electrically connects to the flexible circuit.

An acoustic diaphragm made at least in part from an expanded material. The expanded material includes one or more of cellulose, synthetic fibers and glass fibers. The expanded material has more than about 55% by volume voids.

The present disclosure discloses a silica gel vibrating diaphragm and a method for fabricating the same. The method comprises: forming a composite material belt by using two layers of a base material and liquid silica gel in a calendering manner, wherein the liquid silica gel is between the two layers of the base material; wholly hot-press molding the composite material belt by a vibrating diaphragm die holder, a temperature of the hot-press molding being higher than a vulcanization temperature of the liquid silica gel; removing the two layers of the base material to obtain a whole sheet of silica gel vibrating diaphragm; and blanking the whole sheet of silica gel vibrating diaphragm that has been removed of the two layers of the base material to fabricate a required silica gel vibrating diaphragm. As compared with conventional solutions, the technical solution of the present disclosure has the advantages of simple molding manner, low cost, various styles of the vibrating diaphragm, and small thickness of the vibrating diaphragm.

A speaker diaphragm includes a plurality of highly rigid layers and a porous layer. Each of the plurality of highly rigid layers includes a first resin matrix, and wood fibers and highly rigid fibers dispersed in the first resin matrix. The porous layer includes a second resin matrix comprising independent pores, and fibers comprising wood fibers and highly rigid fibers dispersed in the second resin matrix. Both outermost layers are the highly rigid layers. A percentage content of the wood fibers in the highly rigid layers is 10% by mass or more and 65% by mass or less. A percentage content of the highly rigid fibers in the highly rigid layers is 5% by mass or more and 40% by mass or less. A percentage content of total fibers in the porous layer is 15% by mass or more and 40% by mass or less.

An interior component of a vehicle comprises a carrier having a front face directed toward a passenger compartment of the vehicle and an opposite rear face; a speaker including an at least partially transparent diaphragm and a transducer coupled to the diaphragm. Movement of the transducer causes vibration of the diaphragm to generate sound by vibration of the diaphragm, the diaphragm having a front face directed towards the passenger compartment and an opposite rear face. The carrier provides a support along at least part of the periphery of the diaphragm where the diaphragm is attached to the carrier where the front face and the rear face of the diaphragm are free of the carrier across a part of the diaphragm surface so that the diaphragm is suspended in the carrier of the interior component.

An energy conversion apparatus including a permanent magnet fixed to a predetermined region; and a diaphragm arranged on the permanent magnet, the diaphragm including a coil having a conductor wire pattern formed on the diaphragm, wherein the diaphragm includes a slit formed in the diaphragm.

A non-dispensing manufacturing process includes forming a paper cone; engaging the paper cone with a voice coil to form a vibration assembly; fixing a yoke, a magnet set, and a washer to form a magnetic circuit assembly; engaging a basket with the magnetic circuit assembly; and engaging the basket with the vibration assembly to form a speaker, where no glue is used in the manufacturing process. A speaker includes a paper cone; a voice coil engaged with the paper cone to form a vibration assembly, where a junction between a bobbin of the voice coil and the paper cone has a first welding layer; a magnetic circuit assembly including a yoke, a magnet set, and a washer that are integrally fixed; and a basket engaged with the magnetic circuit assembly and the vibration assembly.
