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.

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 sound generator includes a frame, a magnetic circuit system and a vibration system accommodated in the frame. The vibration system includes a suspension. The suspension includes a first part and a second part attached to the first part. The first part includes a first middle portion, a first edge portion, and a first positioning portion. The second part includes a second middle portion, a second edge portion, and a second positioning portion. The second positioning portion is stacked on the first positioning portion, and is assembled with the first positioning portion by adhesive. The first edge portion is convex toward the frame, and the second edge portion is convex away from the frame, by which a sealed cavity is formed between the first and second edge portions. By virtue of such a configuration, the strength of the vibration system is improved.

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).

A loudspeaker diaphragm includes a woven fabric which is a base member, a sealing layer, and a coating layer. The woven fabric includes a first face and a second face on the reverse side of the woven fabric from the first face. The woven fabric is made into the shape of a diaphragm. The sealing layer is disposed on the first face of the woven fabric, and seals the mesh openings surrounded by warp threads and weft threads of the woven fabric. The coating layer is formed of a first composite material which is a mixture of a plurality of first short nanofibers and a first resin. The coating layer permeates the woven fabric from the second face of the woven fabric to the sealing layer.

The invention discloses a manufacturing method of a speaker vibrating diaphragm by controlling a ratio of fiber materials, the method comprising the steps of: (A) fabric provision: providing a fabric interwoven by a plurality of warps and a plurality of wefts; (B) impregnation: impregnating the fabric in a resin solution; (C) drying: drying the fabric impregnated with resin solution; (D) formation: pressing the dried resin-impregnating fabric to form a predetermined shape; and (E) cutting: cutting the formed speaker vibrating diaphragm from the fabric. Each of the plurality of warps and each of the plurality of wefts of the fabric has an individual yarn count and material composition. By controlling a combination of the yarn counts of the plurality of warps and the plurality of wefts, a total number of threads and a material composition ratio of the warps and wefts required for the vibrating diaphragm are achieved.

An example composition includes a cloth, which has on each side thereof, a first waterproofing agent, a barrier which inhibits or prevents environmental degradation, and an elastomeric barrier including a second waterproofing agent. Another example composition includes a cloth with a phenolic resin coating having, on each side thereof, a first waterproofing agent, a barrier which inhibits or prevents environmental degradation, and an elastomeric barrier including a second waterproofing agent.

A liquid-resistant module can be formed as a laminated construct having a housing, a cap, and a port membrane to inhibit liquid from passing across the membrane. The housing defines an internal duct extending from an inlet port to an outlet region. The cap defines an acoustic port and extends across the outlet region of the housing. The port membrane is attached to the cap and extends across the acoustic passage. The port membrane inhibits passage of liquid water through the membrane at differential pressures across the membrane less than a threshold pressure differential, and yet is gas permeable. The module can provide a liquid-resistant seal with an enclosure of an electronic device, and an enclosed microphone transducer or an enclosed loudspeaker transducer can be attached to the cap such that a port opening to or from the transducer is aligned with the acoustic port.

A speaker diaphragm according to the present disclosure includes a cone formed of a first material including first fibers derived from a plant and a first resin for binding the first fibers together, and an edge portion which is positioned at an outer peripheral portion of the cone and formed of a second material including a second resin, in which the cone and the edge portion are integrally formed. In addition, at least one of the content and the composition of the first resin and the second resin is different.
