An aspect of the present invention is directed to a diaphragm for an electroacoustic transducer, and according to the diaphragm for an electroacoustic transducer, in a base material made of a fiber material mainly composed of cellulose fibers, a mixed layer in which the fiber material and silk nanofibers are mixed is formed.

A voice-controlled electronic device that includes a device housing having a longitudinal axis bisecting opposing top and bottom surfaces and a side surface extending between the top and bottom surfaces. The device can further include one or more microphones disposed within the device housing and distributed radially around the longitudinal axis; a processor configured to execute computer instructions stored in a computer-readable memory for interacting with a user and processing voice commands received by the one or more microphones and first transducer and second transducers configured to generate sound waves within different frequency ranges.

Provided is a balanced armature type speaker. The balanced armature type speaker includes a housing, a driving assembly and a diaphragm. The housing includes an upper inner cavity and a lower inner cavity, the lower inner cavity and the upper inner cavity are through from top to bottom, the driving assembly is located in the lower inner cavity, and the driving assembly includes a magnet, a coil, an armature and an ejector pin. The armature is inserted into the magnet and the coil sequentially, the ejector pin is fixedly connected to the armature and the diaphragm, and the diaphragm is located in the upper inner cavity. The housing is shaped to be wide at the upper part and narrow at the lower part, and in the horizontal direction, a width of the upper inner cavity is larger than a width of the lower inner cavity.

A diaphragm for use in an audio transducer (e.g., a coaxial loudspeaker) includes a higher frequency transducer and a lower frequency transducer. The diaphragm is a component of the lower frequency transducer and is arranged coaxially with the higher frequency transducer. The diaphragm includes a first surface and an opposing second surface. The first surface has a profile shaped to define a horn for output from the higher frequency transducer and the geometry of the first surface is independent of the geometry of the second surface.

An omnidirectional loudspeaker having an inverted dome diaphragm disposed operably connected to a motor assembly and a phasing plug mounted to the motor assembly. The phasing plug has a top portion facing a convex surface of the inverted dome diaphragm and a bottom portion extending downward from the top portion along the central axis with a plurality of concentric apertures extending therethrough. Each aperture has a predetermined radial width and is spaced a predetermined concentric distance from an adjacent aperture. The plurality of concentric apertures cooperates with a compression chamber between the convex surface of the inverted dome diaphragm and the top portion of the phasing plug. Each aperture has a predetermined radial width, is spaced a predetermined concentric distance from an adjacent aperture and extends through the phasing plug exiting at the bottom portion.

A non-planar chemical vapour deposition polycrystalline diamond body has a dome body having an apex and an outer periphery. The dome body has an average radius of curvature in a range of 4 mm to 25 mm and a maximum linear dimension at the outer periphery of the dome body of no more than 26 mm. The average radius of curvature is no less than 0.6 times the maximum linear dimension at the outer periphery. A method of fabricating the non-planar diamond body is also disclosed.

An active acoustic system includes a thin-film sheet having an array of piezoelectric microstructures embossed in the film. Each piezoelectric microstructure may act as a speaker and/or a microphone. A control circuit is configured to individually address the piezoelectric microstructures to provide a separate voltage signal to, or receive a separate voltage signal from, each piezoelectric microstructure.

A loudspeaker including a first diaphragm, a second diaphragm spaced from the first diaphragm, a first voice coil coupled to the first diaphragm, a second voice coil coupled to the second diaphragm, and a magnet assembly. The magnet assembly includes a magnet, a magnetic piece and a spacer of non-magnetic material connecting the magnet and the magnetic piece such that a gap is provided between the magnet and the magnetic piece. The first voice coil is arranged at a first end of the gap and the second voice coil is arranged at a second end of the gap opposite the first end of the gap.

Articles and methods are provided for miniature acoustic transducers having highly compliant suspension systems despite their small size. In various examples the suspension system is molded of a liquid silicone rubber (LSR) and is molded in an interior cavity geometry that includes at least one of a radial offset or an axial offset from a desired geometry of the suspension.

An acoustic diaphragm 1 according to the present invention includes a center dome member, and a sub dome member. The center dome member includes a center dome 2 and an annular first plane part 2a that is disposed along the outer periphery of the center dome and formed integrally with the center dome. The sub dome member includes a sub dome 3 and an annular second plane part 3a that is disposed along the inner periphery of the sub dome and formed integrally with the sub dome. The first plane part includes a rising part 2b of the center dome, a first front surface, and a first back surface. The second plane part includes an inner peripheral edge 3b, a second front surface, and a second back surface. The center dome is formed of a material different from that of the sub dome. The sub dome surrounds the periphery of the center dome. The inner peripheral edge coincides with the rising part. The first front surface is joined to the second back surface.
