Electronic Devices Having Optical and Audio Components
An electronic device housing may include a display cover layer that overlaps an array of pixels. The cover layer or other portion of the housing may have an opening that forms an optical and audio port. Optical and audio components may be coupled to the port. A port cover may cover some or all of the port. The port cover may include one or more layers of mesh or other materials that allow light and sound to pass while blocking environmental contaminants. The optical components may include an ambient light sensor or other devices that receive light and/or may include devices that emit light. The audio components may include a microphone and/or a speaker. The optical component may emit or receive light that passes through the audio component. A structure in the interior of the housing may form a passageway coupled to the port through which sound and light passes.

Each of the plurality of highly rigid layers includes a first resin matrix, and wood fibers and highly rigid fibers dispersed in the first resin matrix. The porous layer includes a second resin matrix comprising independent pores, and fibers comprising wood fibers and highly rigid fibers dispersed in the second resin matrix. Both outermost layers are the highly rigid layers. A percentage content of the wood fibers in the highly rigid layers is 10% by mass or more and 65% by mass or less. A percentage content of the highly rigid fibers in the highly rigid layers is 5% by mass or more and 40% by mass or less. A percentage content of total fibers in the porous layer is 15% by mass or more and 40% by mass or less.
Oscillatory component for loudspeakers, loudspeaker comprising same, and mobile device equipped with said loudspeaker
A vibration component for loudspeakers includes a base layer, an intermediate layer, and a coating layer. The base layer has a front face and a rear face, has a first density, and is formed of a paper body containing a plurality of fibers. The intermediate layer has a first face joined to the front face of the base layer, and a second face on a reverse side of the intermediate layer from the first face, has a second density higher than the first density, and includes a plurality of cellulose fibers as a main component. The coating layer is provided on the second face of the intermediate layer, and includes an inorganic powder formed of a plurality of inorganic fine particles.
DOME MATERIAL, DIAPHRAGM AND SPEAKER
A dome material, a diaphragm and a speaker are provided. The speaker includes the diaphragm made of the dome material. The dome material includes an intermediate layer, an adhesive layer, a film layer, and a surface layer. The adhesive layer, the film layer, and the surface layer are sequentially stacked on the intermediate layer in a direction away from the intermediate layer. The intermediate layer is formed by a foamed material. A thickness of the adhesive layer is 3-20 m. The film layer is adhered to the intermediate layer via the adhesive layer. A thickness of the film layer is 2-20 m. The surface layer adopts fiber prepreg including fiber and resin, the fiber is unidirectionally arranged, and a weight percentage of the fiber is 20%-50%. A surface density of the fiber prepreg is 10-100 g/m.sup.2.
DIAPHRAGM ASSEMBLY, A TRANSDUCER, A MICROPHONE, AND A METHOD OF MANUFACTURE
A diaphragm assembly for a miniature acoustical transducer having a sufficiently light paddle to allow good audio performance and a sufficiently stiff frame to allow handling. The paddle may be made of a thin sheet of aluminium and the frame of thicker aluminium or a bent sheet of aluminium.
Speaker with flex circuit acoustic radiator
A speaker assembly including a frame and a magnet assembly positioned within the frame. The magnet assembly may include a magnet and a top plate. The assembly further including a sound radiating surface suspended over the magnet assembly. The sound radiating surface includes a flexible circuit. A suspension suspending the sound radiating surface over the magnet assembly is further provided. The suspension may be over molded to the sound radiating surface and the frame. A voice coil extends from a bottom side of the sound radiating surface and electrically connects to the flexible circuit.
Speaker diaphragm and coil coupling arrangement, and method
A speaker comprising a diaphragm including a first layer defining a coil receiving opening therein, and a second layer attached to the first layer and traversing the coil receiving opening. The speaker further comprises a coil having an end extending into the coil receiving opening and abutting against a surface of the second layer that traverses the coil receiving opening. Thus, transmission efficiency between the coil and diaphragm is improved, which improves the audio quality of the speaker.
Acoustic diaphragm including graphene and acoustic device employing the same
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.
Diaphragm for producing sound and speaker using same
The present disclosure discloses a diaphragm for radiating sound, including: a dome; a suspension surrounding the dome, including a first connecting portion adjacent to the dome and having a first surface and a second surface, a suspending portion extending from and surrounding the first connecting portion, and a second connecting portion extending from and surrounding the suspending portion. The suspending portion includes a convex part along a direction from the second surface to the first surface, an inner edge connecting to the first connecting portion, and an outer edge connecting to the second connecting portion. The diaphragm further includes a stiffening layer located on the first surface of the first connecting portion, extending from the inner edge toward the dome. The present disclosure further includes a speaker incorporating the diaphragm.
Loudspeaker Diaphragm
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).
