SOUND GENERATING DEVICE MODULE
Disclosed in the present application is a sound generating device module, comprising: a housing having a cavity therein; a frame fixedly provided in the cavity, a high-pitch sound generating unit and a low-pitch sound generating unit are respectively provided on two opposite sides of the frame, the high-pitch sound generating unit and the low-pitch sound generating unit share the cavity; a baffle plate is provided on a side of the housing corresponding to the high-pitch sound generating unit, and the baffle plate and the housing together form a side sound output port corresponding to the high-pitch sound generating unit; and the sound generating device module is configured to form a front sound output structure for the low-pitch sound generating unit.
Micrometric loudspeaker
A micrometric speaker includes a frame, an electromechanical transducer, and a mechanical-acoustic transducer comprising a rigid plate movably mounted in the frame. The electromechanical transducer comprises two piezoelectric actuators and two elastic strips. The frame comprises a central crossmember from which the two strips extend until engaging two lateral coupling edges of the mechanical-acoustic transducer, and the mechanical-acoustic transducer comprises two linearising springs each extending from one of the lateral edges to the rigid plate, to enable, during a deformation of the strips, a movement of the two lateral edges to the central crossmember and reduce the longitudinal constraints applied to the strips during their deformation due to their “recessed-guided” bending configuration.

Bass optimization for audio systems and devices
The invention relates to audio transducer technology, including audio tuning systems to be utilised in personal audio devices, such as headphone, earphones, mobile phones and the like. The audio tuning system optimises the frequency response of the personal audio device by using Diffuse Field curve characteristics. The audio transducers of the personal audio device incorporate low resonance designs, including low resonance transducer and diaphragm suspensions to further optimise the sound quality of the device. The invention also relates to an audio transducer diaphragm construction that includes a three-dimensional lattice which may be utilised in any audio transducer application.
Ultrasonic transducers
Ultrasonic transducers that include membrane films and perforated baseplates. An ultrasonic transducer includes a baseplate having a conductive surface with a plurality of apertures, openings, or perforations formed thereon or therethrough, and a membrane film having a conductive surface. The membrane film is positioned adjacent to the apertures, openings, or perforations formed on or through the baseplate. By applying a voltage between the conductive surface of the membrane film and the conductive surface of the baseplate, an electrical force of attraction can be created between the membrane film and the baseplate. Varying this applied voltage can cause the membrane film to undergo vibrational motion. The dimensions corresponding to the size and/or shape of the apertures, openings, or perforations formed on or through the baseplate can be varied so that different regions of the baseplate produce different frequency responses, allowing the net bandwidth of the ultrasonic transducer to be increased.
VIBRATION SENSORS
A vibration sensor (200) is provided, comprising: a vibration receiver (210) including a housing (211) and a vibration unit (212), the housing (211) forming an acoustic cavity, the vibration unit (212) being located in the acoustic cavity and separating the acoustic cavity into a first acoustic cavity (213) and a second acoustic cavity (214); and an acoustic transducer (220) acoustically connected to the first acoustic cavity (213).
