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.

A method is provided for manufacturing a speaker diaphragm manufactured using a sheet material made of magnesium or magnesium alloy and including an annular cone portion along an outer peripheral edge of a dome portion. The method includes a dome preformation process of forming a dome preformation portion; a cone preformation process of forming an annular cone preformation portion; and a shaping process of shaping the dome preformation portion into the dome portion by pressing, shaping the cone preformation portion into the cone portion whose outer peripheral end at least extends to a substantially identical height position to a maximum protrusion position of the dome portion, and forming, along a boundary portion between the dome portion and the cone portion, an annular step portion to which a voice coil bobbin is attached.

Disclosed herein is a nano membrane. The nano membrane includes an insulating layer having a thickness corresponding to a diameter of each of metal nanowires and configured to contain the metal nanowires therein, and the metal nanowires arranged to cross and having portions of side surfaces which protrude from one surface of the insulating layer.

The invention relates to audio transducers, such as loudspeaker, microphones and the like, and includes improvements in or relating to hinge systems for rotational action audio transducers. The hinge systems of the invention being configured to operatively support a diaphragm in use, and comprising a hinge assembly having one or more hinge joints, wherein each hinge joint comprises a hinge element and a contact member. The contact member comprises a contact surface and the configuration is such that during operation each hinge joint is configured to allow the hinge element to move relative to the associated contact member, while maintaining a substantially consistent physical contact with the contact surface. The hinge assembly biases the hinge element towards the contact surface. Preferably the hinge assembly is configured to apply a biasing force to the hinge element of each joint toward the associated contact surface, compliantly. Various applications and implementations are described and envisaged for the audio transducer embodiments including, for example, personal audio devices such as headphones, earphones and the like.

Disclosed are a diaphragm assembly and a loudspeaker. The diaphragm assembly includes a diaphragm body and a circuit pattern fixedly arranged on the diaphragm body. The diaphragm body is provided with a plurality of magnetized areas. The circuit pattern includes a plurality of copper sheets arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the magnetized areas, and an isolation gap is arranged between two adjacent copper sheets of the plurality of copper sheets. At least part of the plurality of copper sheets is provided with a plurality of balance gaps arranged in a width direction of the part of the plurality of copper sheets, and each of the part of the plurality of copper sheets is divided into a plurality of narrow strips.

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 space frame reinforced tweeter dome is disclosed. The tweeter dome includes a space frame and a convex diaphragm attached to the space frame. The space frame can include a crown portion in the form of a triangular frame and three leg portions each extending from a corresponding vertex of the triangular frame. Each leg portion has a distal foot adapted for connection to a voice coil former for movement therewith. The convex diaphragm can be comprised of a soft, e.g., textile, material while the space frame is comprised of rigid material such as metal. The space frame reinforced tweeter dome is free from ringing while being sufficiently rigid to follow the enormous accelerations of a music signal at high frequencies.
