Disclosed is a waterproof sound-transmitting sheet, which includes a waterproof layer of a nonporous material and a support layer of a porous material, and maintains waterproof performance and sound transmission performance at a water pressure of about 10 atm. The disclosed waterproof sound-transmitting sheet includes a waterproof layer formed of a film shape of a nonporous material, a first adhesive layer having one surface adhered to one surface of the waterproof layer, and a support layer formed of a film shape of a porous material, and having one surface adhered to the other surface of the adhesive layer; and the support layer can be composed of metal mesh or nonwoven fabric.

An electro-acoustic product, and more particularly to a metal diaphragm and a speaker. The metal diaphragm includes a hemispherical diaphragm portion that is provided with a central convex, a hemispherical diaphragm portion periphery is extended in a horizontal direction and configured to form an annular flat diaphragm portion, a annular flat diaphragm portion periphery is folded toward the convex direction of the hemispherical diaphragm portion and configured to extend away from the hemispherical diaphragm portion to form a trumpet-shaped diaphragm portion; a height of a trumpet-shaped diaphragm outer periphery portion away from the hemispherical diaphragm portion is greater than a height of a top portion of the hemispherical diaphragm portion. Thereby the split distortion of the speaker at high-frequency is reduced to ensure that the metal diaphragm can be normally vibrated to produce sound.

Provided are an acoustic diaphragm and an acoustic device including the same. The acoustic diaphragm may include graphene nanoparticles, and an average particle size of the graphene nanoparticles may be about 10 nm or less. The graphene nanoparticles substantially may have a particle size of about 1 nm to about 10 nm. The graphene nanoparticles may include at least one functional group selected from a hydroxyl group, a carboxyl group, a carbonyl group, an epoxy group, an amine group, and an amide group.

Various implementations include loudspeaker transducers. In some aspects, an electro-acoustic transducer includes: a diaphragm configured to move along an axis; a voice coil having a plurality of windings around the axis; a voice coil support configured to transfer forces from the voice coil to the diaphragm; a support structure that inhibits radial motion or tilting motion of the diaphragm and the voice coil support; and a magnetic core for driving the voice coil, the magnetic core including: two magnets having opposite polarity and approximately equal magnetic strength, where each of the magnets surrounds the voice coil, where a magnetic field from each magnet is approximately symmetric along the axis, and where the magnetic field from both magnets drives the voice coil.

The present invention provides a sound generation device and a preparation method of a metal plastic part. The sound generation device comprises a metal plastic part. The metal plastic part comprises a plastic part and a metal insert that is combined with the plastic part. An oxidation film that is obtained through metal nanocrystallization and a nanopore that is formed in a surface of the oxidation film and has a pore diameter of 20-1,000 nm are arranged on a surface of the metal insert. The nanopore is filled with a resin composition from which the plastic part is made. As the nanopore is filled with the resin composition from which the plastic part is made, the metal insert and the plastic part are in close fit with each other, which greatly enhances the gluing capability of the metal insert and prevents the metal insert and the plastic part which are formed through injection molding from being separated. A length of a portion embedded into the plastic part of the metal insert is greatly reduced, such that transfer of ultrasonic energy is smooth. The metal plastic part is effectively prevented from ultrasonic unmelting. Thus, the waterproofness and the sealing property of the metal plastic part are improved. Accordingly, the performance of the sound generation device is improved.

A diaphragm, including: a metal dome, a non-metallic diaphragm portion, and a flexible rim. The non-metallic diaphragm portion is bonded to a metal dome outer periphery, and a non-metallic diaphragm portion outer periphery extends corresponding to a convex direction of the metal dome and expands radially away from the metal dome. The flexible rim is bonded to the non-metallic diaphragm portion outer periphery. The diaphragm of the present application adopts the combination of the metal dome, the non-metallic diaphragm portion, and the flexible rim, the overall rigidity of the diaphragm is enhanced, and the internal damping property of the diaphragm and the compliance of the vibration of the diaphragm can be adjusted, which can effectively reduce segmentation vibration of the diaphragm during high-frequency vibration and reduce the segmentation distortion of the diaphragm at high frequencies, thereby extending the bandwidth of the diaphragm.

A microphone, comprising at least two electrodes, spaced apart, configured to have a magnetic field within a space between the at least two electrodes; a conductive fiber, suspended between the at least two electrodes; in an air or fluid space subject to waves; wherein the conductive fiber has a radius and length such that a movement of at least a central portion of the conductive fiber approximates an oscillating movement of air or fluid surrounding the conductive fiber along an axis normal to the conductive fiber. An electrical signal is produced between two of the at least two electrodes, due to a movement of the conductive fiber within a magnetic field, due to viscous drag of the moving air or fluid surrounding the conductive fiber. The microphone may have a noise floor of less than 69 dBA using an amplifier having an input noise of 10 nV/Hz.

A loudspeaker diaphragm (12) comprising a woven fibre body supports damping material (25), for example PVA polymer, on a rearward-facing surface (24). The woven fibre body may be formed of lengths (14) non-metallic fibre material (for example glass fibre) coating with a thin metal coating (32). The mass of the layer of damping material (25) may be less than the mass of the woven fibre body. An attractive sparkly looking loudspeaker diaphragm (12) may thus be provided which damps undesirable vibration whilst providing a flatter frequency-response curve (50).

The present invention discloses a speaker module and a sound production device. The module comprises a module shell and a speaker unit mounted in the module shell. The module shell comprises a shell main body and two fixed pole plates connected fixedly on the shell main body. The two fixed pole plates are insulated from each other, and each of the two fixed pole plates has a connecting portion exposed to the outside of the shell main body. A vibration system of the speaker unit is provided with a movable pole plate, and each of the two fixed pole plates together with the movable pole plate form a variable capacitor. The speaker module is configured to output an electrical signal representing a vibration displacement of the vibration system by the connecting portions of the two fixed pole plates.
